- Laura to start us off (slides 1-7)
- Kathi (slides 8-14)-No money in your budget? Consider using Google’s free tools. It won’t be perfect, but it’s better than nothing so that’s good. Better would be a fully well thought out website that provides the means for capturing customer information. It may be static, but if you or a developer like myself changes the content quarterly to freshen the information, then the search engines will reindex the changes and that gives the site relevency. Best is a website containing a content management system and feeds from social media. It should be responsive to mobile and tablet devices, meaning it will look nice and function very well no matter what device is being used.-Laura has been discussing how to reach your human audience, as well as writing for the search engines. Keywords about your business are the primary means for getting your website to appear prominently in a search. Images need to be labeled with keywords, too. Don’t upload 15 photos named photo1, photo2, etc. It means absolutely nothing as a search term. Most people overlook this, so use your business name and keywords within the image title to give you an advantage. By the way, be careful when ‘borrowing’ images from other sites to use on your own. If it is a licensed photo or graphic, you will be breaking the law by ‘borrowing’ it without permission.-Got a storefront? Claim your business listings in the major search engines – Google, Bing and Yahoo. You’ll be able to upload your logo, images, video. Also free, but does require proof of business and a bit of your time.
- -Have a website--no matter how basic. Get the best you can afford and make sure you have plenty of information about what you do and how to contact you on it.-Try to capture your potential customer’s information through an online contact form, coupon offer, etc… -Write for the search engines, too, so the keywords about your business are available for indexing. Don’t forget… images need to be identified as well.-Have links on your website to your social media sites and post on social media back to your website. It is part of the concept of a spider web of information, so tie those strands together.
- Social media builds identity both personally and professionally. They are the avenue for conversation and therefore a big part of today’s marketing approach. A website link to FB and Twitter via blog; feeds into the website from FB, Twitter & LI (as part of a desired strategy). Invite people to Like you website & FB business page. Be patient setting up your business Facebook page, etc. You can do it, if you take it a step at a time. Once completed, give it time for your website and social media presence to evolve. It takes months for online activity to collect in search engines as relevant data. The more places you and your business are mentioned with real information containing consistent and useful keywords, the better the likelihood of getting listed well in the search engines.
- -This infographic is an example of an image I ‘borrowed’ from another site. They give their permission to use their graphics, as long as you identify their company as the owner. So I have their business name, Avalaunch, on the bottom here.-This is a great visual of how some of the popular social media outlets are utilized using cats as an example. Whether or not you like cats, it is cute and eye catching as well as informative. Thus the basis of the name Info Graphic. I encourage you to do a search on infographic relating to your business or industry, and if you find something of interest post or blog about it as a way to educate your audience.-With regard to social media, pick
