I had much of the same problem back in Feb. of this year. As with any
business it is all in the pocket book and how deep you are willing to dig. I
use Yahoo/Overature and Google Ad-Words. Both of these are pay-per-click
services. There is no easy way to explain how to use them you kust have to
jump right in. I like overature the best because it is easier for me to use.
Others may not share my opinion.
The main thing with both of them is well thought out planning, and some
monitoring of your cost per click rates. The expense also has to do with wha
t
type of websit/services you have. On the home page of your site click
File/properties. Give your home page a title or it will appear as "Home" whe
n
you pull up your website on the web. Where it says keywords limit these to 6
or 7. Under description limit this to 150-200 characters no more.
You want to make your site web-crawler friendly so that web-crawlers can
find you faster. Web-crawlers are systematic in the way they work. The motto
is "the simpler the better." There is a service that costs 50.00 for 3
months. It's called Submitnet. This is a really cool tool. You are basically
subjecting your website to an acid test. This tool will scower your website
for flaws, or unfriendly items to web-crawlers. Then it tells you what to fi
x
to make it internet friendly.
Lastly, the cost per click service offered by Yahoo and Google all depends
on your key words and what you are willing to spend. A key word like, "real
estate" is going to cost bucks. Lets say you are a loan officer. Real Estate
is too broad a term. Your key word should be real estate Loans, Real Estate
Mortgage etc. This will focus peoples searches more specifically to your
service. Plus it will most likely put less of a dent in advertising budget.
Have fun!
