Being in business I can almost guarantee that you get calls, maybe even on a daily basis, from solicitors promising to get you on the first page of Google. Merchants beware; many of these people (notice the exclusion of the word “companies”) are out to make a quick buck. There are plenty of companies locally that offer these services that you can meet face to face and legitimately review their client portfolio. Regardless let’s not put the carriage before the horse. In this article I want to give you some few key pointers that will help your online searches. The first thing is your company name. Are you an LLC, Inc., Corp etc? read on...
Web Blog
A blog (a blend of the term web log)[1] is a type of website or part of a website. Blogs are usually maintained by an individual with regular entries of commentary, descriptions of events, or other material such as graphics or video. Entries are commonly displayed in reverse-chronological order.
I don’t have to tell you your website is important. Online competition and marketing is now the most competitive field in the professional industry and there is a reason for that.

The Search Engines cannot read Flash files, hence the big blocks that show up on your screen when you are viewing the site on some mobile device. These days there are means of working around keeping the animation “wow factor” and building a search engine friendly site for multi browser platforms Blogging, adding elements like News and Events with relevant information, incorporating Social Media and an engaging inquiry form is always helpful. Stick to the ABU Philosophy – Always Be Updating. The more recent, relevant content on your site, the more “popular” you are online. Add fresh content as much as possible, given its site worthy.
