| Success Strategies for Creative Souls #82: Website Marketing Tips |
 |
Your website is a creative act, but also needs
to communicate with your audience. Here are some
tips to keep in mind as you design or revise
your web presence:
1) Create a site that is engaging, like you! Think of
what would be appealing to your target market and
expresses your individuality.
2) Make sure your site is intuitive and easy to navigate.
Test it out on lots of people and review other
competitive sites too.
3) Have a number of "call to actions" so that people
can take a quiz, read an article, or buy something from
you.
4) Change offerings often as new items keep people
coming back.
5) Have a Press section with a photo and quotes so
that the media can tap into you as a resource.
6) Do an e-zine even if it's only quarterly and collect e-
mail addresses for it. Search engines love blogs as
well.
7) Put your website in the phone book, in articles you
write, in all advertising and mailings. You want to build
your list of contacts.
8) Negotiate reciprocal links with people you can
cross refer to or with sites that have the same target
market.
9) Post articles in other e-zines and on other people's
websites to increase your own web traffic.
10) Hire someone to do search engine optimization
for you to maximize the chances of people discovering
you.

Sweet Danger by Suzy
Bogguss
My gifted and delightful cousin, talented singer Suzy
Bogguss, has a new CD out called "Sweet Danger"
which is her best work ever. Suzy has had an exciting
career writing and singing from small clubs to country
fairs to famous music halls and on television. She
started with country music in Nashville and listens to
her instincts and follows the muse wherever it leads
her.
She does not let her style get defined by others. She
instead takes positive risks, collaborates with other
amazing musicians, and communes with her
audiences. I recently saw her perform in Boston and
she continues to be nothing short of enchanting with a
voice you can't forget. Her new CD is very diverse and
emotional and I especially
love the songs she wrote: "It's Not Going to Happen
Today" and "One Clear Moment". To listen to her
songs, purchase her CD
or get a download, go to: http://www.suzybogguss.com
