Do it yourself SEO
Monday, December 14th, 2009
Many of my clients want to improve their search engine rankings and are surprised to know that a large percentage of it is in their own control. Yes, that is right. You can boost your SEO. All you have to do is take the time, roll up your sleeves and have fun! Make friends with some of the best SEO boosting tools like Facebook, Twitter and your very own blog, and start sharing your stories with the world.
Blogging
This is your platform, your soapbox if you will, where you can express to the world your knowledge, your skills, and the wonders of your product. As a business owner, you might consider yourself quite knowledgeable in your field…so start talking about what you know. For example if you are a personal trainer looking for new clients, share workout tips, write about exercise equipment and blog about healthy recipes. All of these topic will help to present you as an expert in your field and each article that you write will also boost your SEO on the internet.
Most importantly, don’t forget to keep it interesting, and fun. If people just think you are trying to sell yourself or your product, they won’t stick around for more. But if they like reading your articles because of your down-to-earth, candid personality they will return again and again to find out more…and they will tell others about you. And then you are on your way to SEO heaven! (more…)

Review: TweetDeck
Monday, April 27th, 2009
I have been using TweetDeck for about a week now, and so far I am enjoying it. It is a great way to streamline your social media platforms. I have been using it for Facebook and Twitter and so far it is saving me a lot of time! Using TweetDeck, I can monitor people’s Facebook status updates, and their Twitter tweets in one place. TweetDeck makes a friendly little chirping sound when an update comes in, and all I have to do is leave the program open on my computer.
Already I have noticed that I am much more active on Twitter than I have been because TweetDeck makes it easy to post new tweets to my account as well. I think this is a great program for someone who is overwhelmed with keeping up with the new social media world. TweetDeck is in its beta version, so I am sure there will be many updates and improvements over time, but so far I am quite happy with where it is headed. If you have been daunted by the idea of joining Facebook, or Twitter or both, and having to manage this new social world, I think TweetDeck is a good place to start.
