Local Online Marketing for Small Businesses

Name of My Blog

WebMagic Strategic Marketing

Topics I Cover in my Blog

My business and my blog are about helping small businesses attract local customers through an expanded web presence.

How I Got Setup Blogging - And How It Helps My Business

I set up my blog using WordPress and my hosting is through HostGator. Both are incredible tools. HostGator allows multiple domains for one low price, and WordPress is both highly professional and easy to work with.

My business is essentially a search optimization service, and my blog is my business card to the world.

Lessons Learned

  • Some WordPress templates are more Google-friendly than others.
  • Stay away from flash; it takes too long to load
  • Write in small digestible chunks
  • Be specific
  • Keep your focus on the reader
