Are Web Directories Dead Yet?
In our quest to get our clients' websites indexed and prominently ranked on Google, Bing, and Yahoo, we tend to keep our efforts search engine-focused, while there exists a valuable and frequently overlooked tool that can drive the traffic your website needs: online directories.
Web Directories are sites that classify web links by placing them in appropriate categories and subcategories.
Listing your website in these directories offers cheap- or often free- and easy exposure and a few other benefits to boot.
Submitting the clients of my Los Angeles web design and SEO company to online directories is a routine part of our campaign efforts.

How Fast is Your Android Mobile Phone?
In an earlier post, we detailed several quick and simple strategies to speed up the operations of your PC, as it can get easily slowed down by a loaded cache, data history, and cookies.
As we�ve also noted on several Mobile Mondays, our smartphones have become portable- and in some sense even more capable - PC�s that we carry everywhere and use constantly to manage our professional and personal lives.
With all that use, they encounter essentially the same problems our desk and lap tops do; that is, their memory and space gets used up and they get sluggish. If this sounds like your Android, then History Eraser might be all it needs.

Bring Out the GIMP�shop, That Is
In recent Free Friday posts, we�ve already gone over cost-free alternatives to commonly de rigueur- but also expensive- office applications and services like Microsoft Office and Quickbooks. Yet, not every enterprise�s needs are limited to accounting and word processing.
If you work in multimedia, flash, logo, or website design (like me), you are probably all too familiar with a program called Photoshop.
Photoshop is a highly versatile graphic editing tool that has set the standard for creating and editing digital images. Purchasing it also runs you approximately $700, which for many freelance designers and quite a few businesses is an unfeasibly hefty price tag.

Have You Ever Thought About What Keeps You Interested in A Website You Are Browsing?
Put in another way, what content really helps to sell you on a provider or seller�s quality?
For me, a big factor in what makes me go from a browser to a buyer is an indication that a company has not only worked with but satisfied and even impressed other clients with circumstances similar to mine.
As we�ve discussed in multiple previous blog posts, when a prospective customer visits your homepage, you�ve got a very brief window in which to catch a viewer's attention and demonstrate your value and relevance to their needs.

Have You Yelped Lately?
It�s a shame how many business owners, namely those behind smaller enterprises, discount the impact that a Yelp listing can actually have on their online search engine campaign as well as their visibility to local audiences.
All too frequently, Yelp gets dismissed as a forum for people to post complaints about businesses. In reality, it has grown into much more of an online presence.
Much like in my earlier post about how social media sites like Facebook and Twitter are the often overlooked �low hanging fruit� of the traffic quest, Yelp presents another free and easy opportunity to bring hits to your website.
