Video as a doorway to your website


With Google giving more and more attention to video in the search results one can really gain a good deal of traffic by utilizing video search engine optimization. I stress the word “optimized videos” because its not just about uploading videos to YouTube and other sites. Its about making sure that the videos are tagged with the right keywords in the right places for the search engines to pick up and drive relevant traffic to your website.

Here are some tips for optimizing videos on your own site. Take the source video file and infuse it with your keywords; in the Title, Description, and Keywords tags. Make sure your video is the main feature on a page and surround it with relevant text and embedded links.

Syndicating your Store


Getting your store on the web is a task. Once your site is up, you need to be able to get your items everywhere possible to achieve better traffic and more sales.

Google Base is an online tool that allows your store to be syndicated. We launched a new Hardware and Tools website for Harper Hardware of Richmond, VA. Once we published the website, we syndicated 20,000 of their items to Google Base. Look HERE. Google Base equates to almost half their traffic.

Google Base is a place where you can easily submit all types of online and offline content, which will be made searchable on Google. You can describe any item you post with attributes, which will help people find it when they do related searches.
