SEO is important for marketing a virtual assistant website
Posted by Shari Sultana on Fri, Aug 29, 2008
I’ve noticed
that many virtual assistants do not make use of their web site’s title tags. If you
click on your home page and it says “home” in the blue bar at the very
top of your screen then you are not taking advantage of a very
important piece of your marketing puzzle.
I encourage you
to read about SEO at your favorite VA forum and take particular notice
of any threads that discuss Title tags and Description tags.
There are over
100 million active websites on the internet. If you want your website
to be found you *must* take advantage of your title tags. It’s not a
cure-all but it sure puts you ahead those of who don’t use them.
I know that some
of you may not consider SEO to be an important part of your marketing
strategy *today*. But, as the virtual assistant industry becomes more
mainstream, prospective clients will begin to search for your services.
One of the ways you can tell them what you do is by putting it in your
title tags. The search engines place a lot of importance on title tags
and use them as a way to decide what your site is about. This should be
a part of your marketing strategy.
