Several companies promise top ranking on search pages but cost thousands of dollars (and aren’t guaranteed after all). Here are ten free tips you can use without the need of special SEO companies looking at your checkbook.
- Google Adwords are a cheap and easy way to promote your website.
- Send out a professional e-mail newsletter to build a strong relationship with your customers and advertise your site.
- Use word-of-mouth, it’s free and easy. E-mail 25 relatives, co-workers or old friends a friendly note letting them know about your website.
- Ask customers to give you feedback for a testimonials page. This provides you with content and educates your customers about the new website.
- Let Google know. Add your URL to Google by hand to make sure it gets in their big list.
- Add links to other websites with complementary services or products. This improves your search engine ranking.
- Spend money to educate your customers. Sharon Housley shows why smart customers are better customers.
- Add powerpoint presentations to your website to better educate your customers.
- Include several keywords in your website text. Replace the words, “Our Product” with the actual name of the product and describe what it does. This lets search engines know what your selling.
- Add a business blog to your website to better communicate with your customers and improve search engine ranking.
