Keep Visitors On-Site Longer: 7 Tips to Keep ‘em In Place

As a web site owner, you spend a lot of time, money and effort to snag those site visitors who stop by. With 130 million sites, your piece of digital turf is almost invisible so when you do get visitors you want them to stay around as long as possible. Why? Because the longer a site visitor stays in place (your place), the more likely they are to perform the most desired action, or MDA, whether it’s buying goods and services, opting in for a newsletter or picking up the phone to give you a call. So, here are seven tips to keep site visitors in place. Use them and you’ll see your “Time on Site” metrics soar. You’ll also see increased performance of the MDA. 1. Provide informational content. Tips, suggestions, helpful articles – all of these keep visitors on site longer. And, if you update that information frequently, you’ll create site stickiness with visitors coming back regularly. Add a blog to your site to provide new content easily. 2. Create an intriguing headline. “The headline is half the job,” or so goes the old advertising adage. Your headline should identify a problem and offer a solution, or pique [...]

Twitter Down. Break Time.

Lately in the hustle of my every day, I forget to just take a break. Ok it’s really that I don’t have time to take a break. Spending hours finishing work for clients, catching up on emails, the family, and then there’s Twitter. On average I spend 1 solid hour on Twitter a day between retweets, replies and my own tweets. What is going on with this? Is it an addiction? Forget about throwing client’s social media work into the pot. Where does it end? Today I got a break. Twitter will be down for hours for scheduled maintenance. (double posts in @ replies perhaps?) Ah, let the stress go. No more wondering what that reply to your witty comment will be. No more, “is there breaking news going on”. Now there’s this gap in my day when I’m usually on Hootsuite scheduling that important post for my friends to enjoy tomorrow. I didn’t know what to do with all this bonus of time now. I decided to write a post about Twitter. #fail

Brand New Google Image Search Live!

Have you seen Google images today? It appears last night Google launched a new image search. With this brand new look when searching images, it’s much easier to find what you’re looking for online. Not only is it fast and clean, but you can see up to 7 pages on standard settings at one time. It’s a quick overview of inspiration. This is something search marketers, designers and others can use. I thought it would be cool to do a quick Google image search on “SEO” to see companies ranking up at the top with their images. There’s quite a lot you can see from one glance. It really makes things easier on image searching and I would like to applaud Google for a well performed and thought out job. These images I provided were from the search “Roman logos”. What do you think of the new look?
