I'm Just Sharing

SEO Xcellence is my SEO site, where I market myself as an internet marketing consultant for small businesses.

A few weeks back, I decided it was time for a redesign of sorts. I use the site to also help advertise my writing services, and decided I just had to move some things around and change a few things up.

The first thing I did was widen each page. I don’t know what I was thinking when I left it kind of condensed, but condensed has never been my style. And now that I have this great wide screen monitor, it just looked worse to me. So, I took advantage and changed up the coding and now I love how it’s more spread out. This way, more of my content appears above the fold, and since it’s a business site, that’s a great thing.

Something else I did was finally add my ebook Using Your Website As A Marketing Tool, which I’m not linking to since it’s over there at the top left. I also added my webinar Social Media, SEO & Your Business, once again not linking to it since it’s underneath the ebook. It made a lot of sense putting both of those books on that site.

What I also did for most of the pages was remove the Adsense links. It just didn’t make sense, as a business site, to have Adsense on every page. After all, I don’t want to drive people to other sites for business I can do, right? However, I left it on all my articles, along with some affiliate ads on some of those pages, since their focus is somewhat different. I’m not sure about that, to tell you the truth, but it stays for now.

I also decided to break up how I advertise my services on the site. So, I added a new tab and created a new tab and a new page. The new page highlights all the writing services I do, while my other page, which I renamed in the menu, highlights all the other services I can perform.

Then I went through and read some of my content, changing a few things here and there, but otherwise, I left most of it alone. I actually did all of this last week, so I expect that in another week it’ll probably move up a little bit on Google for its main search term, which is “Syracuse internet marketing consultant.” I’m also hoping its Alexa rank changes a little bit; I’d like to get it under a million.

I have one last thought for that site, but I’m not sure I should do it. I’ve been thinking about adding a blog to the site in a subdirectory. It’s a recommendation I make to most of my clients, but the truth is that I already write 3 blogs, and I’m making most of my living writing. Do I have the time for a fourth blog, on a topic that many others are writing on already? I’m not sure, which is why I haven’t done it yet.

Anyway, I thought I’d share this one with y’all. I still have to figure out how to revamp one of my other sites, but for now, it’s on the back burner.
