Complaints

complaints

I come with a new “tip” for business owners that interract with the public and have a ‘complaint notebook’. Personally, if i were a business owner I would consider this very much as it’s a very important aspect in making things better. Why?

If a client is not happy with the oferred services, I, with this notebook, can improve my services, I can evolve and I can omit future mistakes. Even more, if the client leaves a phone number, I could have a coffee with him/her and talk about how I can improve my business. What I am saying is something that many don’t consider as important, but in order to have a successful business you need to put yourself in the position of the client.

About Branding

brand, about branding

When you hear or read JUST DO IT, what do you think about? Surely the brand NIKE…
When you hear or read IMPOSIBLE OR NOTHING what do you think about? Surely the brand ADIDAS…

Brang + slogan = a succesfull business

I started to talk about branding thinking about my ideas and the way i think them is an easy way to create a brand, especially in countries where you can influence the population. With a TV comercial that is on for one month, you can make people think that that product is good, maybe very good, you can send a message in a correct way, but it can be wrong. The majority will accept it as a good message, because it is popular.

The slogan.. do you have one? I do, in my mother language site, but i unfortunately didnt spread it, so people can associate it with my site. Without a slogan it’s like losing 30% of the business’ value, a mistake i often see but i still make when it comes to my projects.

Let’s stick to a web page, a brand in my opinion is built on these:

  • Logo - a representative image in the workfield you activate in, an attractive image and easy to remember. People will surely recognize the sign.
  • Slogan - as I said before, a brand cannot exist without a slogan, as well as a slogan cannot exist without a logo.
  • Quality - a web page must be qualitative, when people hear your slogan they have to think nice about you, it’s useless for you to have a known slogan but people would talk rubbish about it..

Let’s talk about SEO

SEO, Search engine optimization, SEO OnPage, SEO OffPage, Google

I am a SEO specialist and today I will talk about SEO (search engine optimization). I think everyone knows what is SEO. Search engine optimization contain two parts, SEO on page and SEO off page!

SEO OnPage: - This part contain optimization on website, on text, on source code, meta names and other important elements! Now think ok a webpage who sell sport shoes. Without Seo the page not exist, think about how much we sell if we are in the first page or on Page 10. Before us exist more 90 page who sale sport shoes. Before to start we need to make a research to see what keywords have most searches! You can find this with Google AdWords: Keyword Tool!

Now you need to buy an domain with our keywords in it (sportshoes.com / sport-shoes.com)! Maybe you think the last domain is not so good but we have two keywords there. After this step we need to create the site, a site who doesn’t have more than 100kb. The page he need to be created on the standars, here we talk about VALIDATE CSS and HTML!

We know the keywords and we need to create the text who have big density of our keywords: SPORT SHOES. You can calculate the density with TextAlyser webpage.

After this steps we write:

  • the title: SportShoes.Com - Play your Sport with great Shoes.
  • Meta Description we describe the page: SportShoes.Com - Play your Sport with great Shoes. Find the perfect shoes from our Brands: Nike, Adidas, Converse, Dada, Reebok
  • Meta Keywords: sport shoes, shoes, nike, adidas (Here we need to write important keywords first)
  • H1 - He need to contain our keywords
  • Strong text - In content we put the strong tag on keywords. I indicate to make this step on the first and the last paragraph
  • Italic text - Like strong tag we write keywords with italic
  • Alt Images - Every Image he needs to have an description (ALT DESCRIPTION). Here we put our keywords. If we have an Image with a Nike Shoe in description we write Sport Shoes - Nike
  • Link - I recommend to put a link on our keyword
