WFIM is now The Little Guy Marketing, you can find our website HERE


Did your web designer make you an awesome looking site? Where is it in Google? Are you getting lots of visitors to the site? Are you getting leads from your website?

Lots of people can make a great looking website, but very few know how to actually get your site found in Google for the phrases/keywords that you want!

Web designers are creative types, like musicians, very few are marketers, just as many musicians are bad marketers, they hire someone to market them. You need who is an Internet marketer to help your website get found in Google.

You need to be using email campaigns for your customers and potential customers. Are you able to capture emails from visitors to your site so you can contact them later? A good web designer would have told you about this.

Did you web designer talk about Search Engine Optimization or SEO? He should have, it is one of the critical components of how Google ranks your website.

Link building, were you told you need links to your site, this is another component of your web site that Google looks at. Do you have a way to get links from other websites to yours? Is your web designer going to get those?

Are you using other methods for Internet marketing? There are blogs, video sites, social media and article directories. Are you in any of them? Did your designer recommend them?

Is your business listed with Google Local? Yahoo Local? Bing local? These are all sites that your business and website should be listed in. Each of those has rules for ranking higher for your business as well. Does your web designer know how to rank for them?

Are you positioned in the search engines for local search? Lets assume your web designer did all that, and that you are a realtor. If your web designer did well and got you ranked for “realtor” in Google, that just made you loose money. Now every Tom Dick and Harry from Iowa, Texas and New York will be calling. You want to be ranked for “realtor insert your town name here”.

SEO Michigan City Indiana

WFIM is now The Little Guy Marketing, you can find our website HERE


Did your web designer talk with you about what SEO was? Search engine optimization...that's how Google and other search engines rank you. They use a number of factors including, how many pages your site has, how relevant to the topic is your page, how many incoming links from other sites to your site do you have. Also important is keywords, both visible on your site and those not visible to you but to the search engines.

If you do not have a good combination for all these items you will not rank well for terms you want to. Did your web designer tell how he was going to get you links, or how you need to?

Did he tell you how important having a lot of content about your topic on your site is? Did he tell how to use titles of pages and pictures?

If you do not have several spots on Google's first two pages for the phrases you want you need to fire your web designer and call me today!

Made In Laporte County Showcase Exhibitors are you happy with your internet marketing? William Fennell, Internet marketing consultant, is attending the Made In LaPorte County showcase to meet with exhibitors and to show them how they can leverage the power of the internet. He will be talking with attendees to address how attendees can improve their internet presence using their own website and several other mediums on the internet.

Next to word of mouth the Internet is the best way to promote your services or products to the Laporte County area. But are you getting the most out of your Internet marketing? Are you utilizing the Internet in an organized fashion? Do you have a website? Are you using the URL on every business card or piece of marketing material? Is your website generating interest in your product or services? Are you actively promoting your website or is it being used passively?

Are you using Social Media, are you even aware of what it is? On September 16, Facebook announced it now has over 300 million users. Are you taking advantage of Facebook or other social media sites? If not you are missing the next biggest opportunity to market your business.
If these businesses are not maximizing on the opportunities available on the internet they are missing out on tremendous opportunities. There are avenues in audio, video radio mediums on the internet that will increase exposure in current channels as well as new channels for their products and services.
The event features over 40 exhibitors answering questions and displaying products. The event is open to everyone and is being held at the Marquette Mall in Michigan City. Mayors Kathy Chroback and Chuck Oberlie will also be speaking at the event. Partners in the Event are the Michigan City Economic Development Corporation and the Greater Laporte County Development Corporation.
