Google: Make Sure Your Customers Can Find You! (4/27/2011)

What good is an attractive website if it can’t be found through search engines? Google: Make Sure Your Customers Can Find You! provides hands-on, step-by-step instructions for getting your website found through high ranking on Google and other search engines. Using real world examples, local author Greg Bright will present free search engine optimization techniques using non-technical, layman’s terms – from one small business owner to another. Included with the course is a copy of the instructor’s book “Get Top Ranking On Google & Other Search Engines.” The book contains 101 simple tips for high ranking and growing your business online. Every technique covered in the course can be implemented immediately. This class is taught by a University of Texas Adjunct Instructor.

No Sound from Microsoft Update – Thanks

Microsoft downloaded their weekly updates and many people lost their sound system.

Easy fix – look for “system restore” located in Accessory/System Tools/System Restore.

Restored back to Thursday of last week and the sound system works great now.

Back Link Anatomy – Understanding The Value Of An Incoming Link to Your Website

The anatomy of a link can be thought of in five parts: anchor text, trust, relevance, placement and outbound links. Each one makes up a piece of the link pie.

I already know what you are thinking- what about authority? The five pieces of the pie mentioned above are what make the pie, but authority is what determines the size of the pie.

One of our favorite readers, Sonia asks: “Do you know anyone who can clean up the formatting on a wordpress site?”

Answer:

No – but they are a easy to find – lots listed on Craigslist or better yet – www.eLance.com

Sonia’s Response:

“Thanks … i did find someone on craigslist … and hes great!”

And the discussion went on…

Great – I might need a referral from you some day – (people ask me all the time)  so please keep his contact info.

When you are done with him, if you could give me a synopsis (a few lines) of about what the process costs – by the hour?  Project?  type thing.

BTW – I hope you are going to follow my lead on my white paper located at www.GTROG.com under “Computer Tips” and use a preformatted template for your own sites : )
