Mark your calendars for Saturday March 29th from 9:50 AM to 10:50 AM when I will be giving a free talk covering the 9 most important elements of on-site optimization for business websites targeting their local market.

If you want your business ranked #1 in local search results for your products and services, you will pick up tips and strategies to make that happen in this one hour lecture.  In particular, we will cover: keyword research, title tags, meta description, headlines (H1 and H2), permalinks (slugs), body/content optimization, design optimization, and markup.

I’ll take you through a live site example of each of these elements so you can see how to optimize them on your own site.  The talk will be given at the Alachua County Library headquarters in meeting room B.

You asked and I listened. Since I began doing web design, I’ve received requests such as,

• Do you provide web management or web marketing?
• Do you manage facebook pages?
• Can you help me post to and keep track of my social media presence?
• Is there an easy way for my clients and customers to leave feedback on yelp! and Google+?
• How can I easily submit my business information across online business directories?

I’ve been working to convert these requests into comprehensive add-ons that provide valuable enhancements to your web presence. I’m happy to announce that SunCloud Design now offers Social Media Management, Reputation Management (including backlink and review building), Onsite Search Engine Optimization, and Local Search Engine Optimization add-ons for clients.

We’re now offering these services as “Management Add-ons”. Each add-on is structured so that, even if you aren’t hosted with SunCloud Design, you can still sign up and take full advantage of all the services included. Clients can now choose from several services to tailor a managed hosting plan that best suits their needs.

What does each addon include? I’ll summarize each. If you’re interested to know more, please see our Web Management pages for pricing and details.

Local SEO

With our Local SEO services, we optimize and track your local search engine presence. Each month we provide you with extensive reports about your search engine rankings and other updates about your growing presence online. In addition, this service includes licensing, updates, and configuration of the Local SEO addon by Yoast (in addition to configuring the standard SEO by Yoast plugin).

Onsite SEO

One of the best wayts to build your search engine presence is by regularly publishing new keyword-targeted content.  With Onsite SEO, we analyze your new website content each month and offer valuable insights to improve it based on keyword research.  Submit new posts to us before or after you publish them and we will conduct a thorough analysis of keywords and offer you a keyword and content report that you can use to improve that post as well as future posts.  Not only that, we personally tweak your blog entries as provide you those optimized versions!  Let SunCloud be you SEO copy-editor and get your website content in search engines.

Reputation Builder

Each month, your business information will be manually added to 10 new online business directories.  This will steadily grow your online presence and boost your SEO. We only select from sites with the highest citation value. Comprehensive and consistent directory listings are one of the best ways to grow your reputation in the eyes of search engines.  In addition, we use expert methods to get you more reviews online.  Any business that’s tried to solicite reviews online from customers knows its like pulling teeth.  We will get you positive online reviews in all major review channels using expert techniques. Don’t worry, our reviews come from your own happy customers – no shady techniques.  This combination of growing online reviews and listings is a powerful combination for search engine optimization.

Social Media Management

I’ve found an incredible social media manager to work with clients who’d like someone to oversee their day-to-day social media efforts. This service includes posting content to facebook and other social media hubs (according to the guidelines we lay out together) and syndicating your website updates across all your social media channels.

In addition to these add-ons, we are now offering web management services to clients who are hosted with other companies.  Now you can be managed with SunCloud even if you aren’t hosted with us.  Check out our Web Management page for details.
