So, when we design a site for you, Arizona, you get all passwords and usernames. You not only get complete access to us at anytime to ask questions about your site, you get complete access to your site itself. I know, it’s a concept that seems pretty simple, but time after time we come across clients who have been wronged by their designers and don’t even have access to their own sites.

At Linwright Design, we not only give you complete access to your site, we even walk you through how to maintain your site, add or delete content and images, even update shopping carts and pages. If you have a question about your site, Arizona, we’re always here available to answer. If you want to change a picture or a paragraph on your site, there’s no reason to call up your designer, wait a few weeks for the changes to be made, and then hold your breath for the bill. With our easy-to-use sites, you can do the changes yourself if you’d like.

Using a Wordpress platform to build your websites does so much more than give you the ease of access, it also makes building optimized web pages for SEO and rankings easy. If you have a site that has been designed by a creative mind, but is completely foreign to you, let us know. We’ll gladly redesign your site or transfer it to a platform that is easy for you to use.

Statistics have proven that standard advertising in print and on radio just doesn’t cut it anymore. Businesses are beginning to think out of the box, and small businesses must be on top of this changing industry to stay afloat.

Building a website with Wordpress is your first step in establishing some credibility and creating some influence online. Ranking on Google comes a whole lot easier if you have a Wordpress site built with SEO benefits right into the code.

Not too long ago, Wordpress was nothing but a blogging platform that the kids and mommy bloggers used to vent about their lives. Today, however, Wordpress is an entirely new beast that has become a giant in the industry. I challenge you to find a design platform that will rank faster and better on the search engines than a Wordpress site built with SEO in mind.

It’s more than just a blog platform, Wordpress is a web design phenomena. Not only does Wordpress come with great plugins for site optimization, there is nothing easier to maintain than a Wordpress site. Linwright Design customizes your site, tweaks what you wants tweaked, shows you the easy steps to adding content, and lets you have complete control. You cannot “break, destroy, or mess up” a Wordpress site, as many of my clients would say.

Some designers will turn up their nose at the idea of taking a Wordpress theme (template) and customizing it. Many times I have explained how customizing a Wordpress theme is the most efficient, open-ended, and creative way to create a site for clients. Any theme can be customized to any client’s needs, and done with optimization in mind.

Social media platforms such as Facebook and Twitter have a huge influence on consumers. Studies are being done every day showing that traditional advertising just doesn’t cut it anymore. Corporations are learning to think out of the box to keep up with the next generation of consumers, and social media creates a wonderful opportunity for potential customers.

Social Media Influence

• Being earnest, or sincere, in your efforts to provide content to your customers is perhaps your most important task. Until recent years, your “content” was advertisements, flyers, coupons and other promotional materials. Outstanding content today requires a new mindset and intent. You’re not selling your customers with your content, be it that from a blog, an email newsletter or a posting on a social network, but instead you are providing them with value. – Social Media Today

• 91% says consumer content is #1 aid to a buying decision
• 87% trust a friend’s recommendation over a critic review
• Social network users are 3 times more likely to trust peer opinions over advertising
• 1 word-of-mouth conversation has the impact of 200 tv commercials
• 28% of Christmas shoppers in 2009 said social media influenced their buying decisions (13% of that influence came from blogs)

Being earnest, or sincere, in your efforts to provide content to you customers is perhaps your most important task. Until recent years, your “content” was advertisements, flyers, coupons and other promotional materials. Outstanding content today requires a new mindset and intent. You’re not selling your customers with your content, be it that from a blog, an email newsletter or a posting on a social network, but instead you are providing them with value.

 – Social Media Today

Just over a year ago (which shows you how quickly this has become a big marketing tool), I had a conversation with a client about getting some quality content on their website. I told her that she needed to put content that provides information of value on her website, and if that means including links to other helpful sites or ‘how-to’s’ so that visitors can learn how to do certain things, then that’s what had to be done. In order to gain trust, gain traffic, and gain conversions and customers, you have to give them something to get something in return.

Needless to say, she hated the idea and didn’t want to give away any ‘free’ information. Everything that was of value on her site had to be paid for, and it hurt her in the long run. This is not the way to market your site. Banners, advertisements, and sales chatter is probably one of the worst things that you can do for your site.

Sure, on your landing page or home page you can run your sales pitch, but you have also got to provide content of value to your clients. Just a few months ago I was working for a debt settlement company, helping them to market their websites. It was all sales, all advertising, and all boring chatter. It meant nothing to the visitors because they could get nothing out of it.

Through experience, I found that the sites that brought in the most traffic, and thus the most potential for customer conversions, were the ones that provided the most value. The sites with a blog or frequent content updates that helped visitors find questions to their answers got the most hits. The sites that provided value and information on debt issues brought in the most visitors, and it’s all about the numbers. The more visitors you have, the more possibilities you have for customer conversions.

Gone are the days of advertising chatter on your website. You will no longer get the traffic and conversions that you want if you only try to ‘sell’ them. These days, blatant advertising doesn’t work. You need referrals, branding on social media, and you need to provide something to get something. By providing information of value, you will get conversions in return.

Internet marketing was once about registering your sites with the big three, Google, MSN, and Yahoo. That was it. Then you’d do a little on-site optimization and work out a few relationships with some affiliate sites, and you were golden. Or so, at least that’s what they say. I’m not really speaking from experience. In those days I was still writing the great American novel and getting through school.

Today, internet marketing has many forms, and with the every changing economy and business landscape, so has web marketing changed. There’s a lot more that goes into it besides registering your site. Today, you have link marketing, social media marketing, email marketing, content marketing, and many others. My favorite; content marketing.

Here’s the deal. This is where you, as a small business owner, has to make a decision. Do you pay the big SEO companies, the ones who make all those promises to get you to the top of Google for just a couple thousand a month, or do you turn to the little guy who could very well be your neighbor. In this economy, with our tight marketing budgets, I would go with the latter.

It’s not always about who is the most expensive and who promises the big results. I recently had a client tell me that he had heard it all from the big SEO companies. He heard all of the promises and shelled out all of the money, and saw nothing from it. Well, I told him that I don’t make promises. I do the work, I have the passion and the drive, and I work with the budget that you have. Within two months we’ve gotten his site to the second page of Google, and are very close to breaching page number one.

My point here is this; times are tough right now for everyone. Big and small businesses are struggling. What I can offer you is a different approach to marketing your business. I’m a writer. I write blogs, press releases, and articles to spread around your brand. I hit people up on Twitter and Facebook occasionally and direct them to your website. I work the language of the internet, feel out the trends and what people are talking about, and attract them with curiosity to check out what you have to offer.

I do this in two ways. The first is by working your website to the top with a lot of fresh content and SEO techniques. The second is to work the traffic to your site first, then worry about getting your page to the top second. Option number two is all about the blogs, and getting traffic to read the blogs. The more traffic hits the blogs, the more possibilities you have to get customers. Each visitor that reads a blog is a potential customer.

The economy is changing, and maybe your marketing ideas should be changing too.

Building web pages and images with Powerpoint is as easy as using Microsoft Word to write an essay. Sure, it takes a little practice and some experimentation with different effects, but you can do just about anything on Powerpoint that you can do on many other expensive image creating platforms.

Creating an image in Powerpoint requires knowledge of what .jpeg, .jpg, .gif, and .png mean. Here’s the technical information that I found at www.webwitchery.com:

  GIFs
GIF was created by Compuserve as a machine independent file format. GIF files can contain one or more images with 256 colors or less. The images are compressed using LZW compression, reducing the file size by 30-50% or more. Gifs are flexible, and have capabilities that jpg doesn’t, such as animation ( GIF89a) and transparency. There are interlaced gifs that load gradually, allowing the user to see parts of the image while it’s loading. Interlaced files also take longer to decompress, and may actually take more time to download, although it may seem faster because the user has something to look at. It isn’t worth the decompression time for small files. GIFs can also have transparent backgrounds to show the underlying background color or image.

JPGs
Jpgs do not limit colors, making this format the preferred for photographs. Always save your original image in a format other than jpg so you can go back and make changes later. If you save a jpg as a jpg after altering it, you are compressing the image again, causing lots of icky (that’s a technical term things to happen. Your jpgs can be highly compressed for really small files, or just a little compressed for larger files. You should experiment and save the image with the most compression, while still maintaining an acceptable image. If you save a jpg in Photoshop, you will not see the effects of the compression until you close the image and reopen it.

When I create an image with Powerpoint, I honestly use the .png format about 90% of the time. This image format allows for me to save the Powerpoint image with a transparent background, and in many cases a transparent background is exactly what I need.

Ok, so onto the building of images with Powerpoint. The first thing you want to do is click layout, and scroll to the blank layout. Next, we’ll create the badge that you see below.

Insert a circle shape with a border. Make the shape the color of your choice, but create a gradient effect. After you create the circle, look to the top of your screen. Click on Drawing Tools, select color and then gradient. Next scroll to the bottom and selcect more gradients. You’ll want to make sure there are two gradient levels, and select the colors that you want your image to be.

Next, insert another circle. This one will be on off-white color, and you’ll want to soften the edges to create that glare effect. Select shape effects, then soft edges, and click on 10 point. Place the glare effect circle on either side of your badge circle.

Finally, we want to create the peel effect on the edge of the badge. This is the tricky part. You’ll want to insert a shape. Chord is the shape you’ll want to insert:

Reshape the chord to form a perfectly small half-circle. Next you’ll want to give it that foil effect. You’ll do this with the color gradient, more gradients, and select the present color that is titled chrome. This will give your badge peel that foil effect.

Finally, it’ll just take some resizing and placement to arrange the peel onto the badge in the right place. Arranging images is always easier if you select rotate from the top control bar, then scroll down to more rotation options. Here you can position your shapes exactly as you want to.

It’s that easy! Whether you’re creating a badge, a navigation button, or an advertisement, you can really do it all with Powerpoint. Remember that if you create an image with a transparent area, simply save it as a .png. If you do want the transparent background but don’t know how to get it, simply select the image or picture, click on picture tools, then recolor in the top left, and set transparent color. Then simply click on the area that you want to be transparent.

If you don’t need that transparent area and want the white background, select .jpg or .gif. To save your image as a picture, select the image, right click, scroll down to save as picture, and there you go.

My advice to you, before you go and spend hundreds on some fancy image creation tool or design tool, spend some time with Powerpoint. Place around with the picture and image effects, the shadows, 3D effects, and rotation. You can create just about anything with layering, shapes, and a little bit of imagination. Below are some examples of what Powerpoint can do. Everything that you see on this site, including the header and holiday advertisement, was created with Powerpoint.

Businesses of all sizes should get involved with Facebook and Twitter for the simple purpose of customer service. While MySpace has sold out and is falling swiftly off a cliff, Facebook and Twitter are still growing by leaps and bounds, which means your customers are probably on at least one of these networks. If your customers are on them, then you should be too.

Big businesses should integrate social media into their marketing to stay fresh and act like a small business by communicating with their customers. Small businesses should integrate social media to keep their customers happy and informed.

Big Businesses and Social Media

In my personal opinion, big businesses tend to get boring after a while. They shut-off connections with the real world, block the websites that keep their marketers informed of what’s trending online, and drain employees with small offices and bad lighting. If you’re a big business that has thick protections against any sort of social media while at work, you’re probably only doing yourself harm.

Twitter and Facebook allows for big businesses to be fresh and current with what their customers want. Sure, marketers take stats and polls and understand their customers in many ways, but understanding your customers on a social level adds another layer to your marketing plan. And what’s wrong with knowing your customers better.

Many big businesses, like Starbucks and Hewlett Packard, use Twitter efficiently to communicate with their customers. These are big businesses who know how to market to their customers. They offer specials, news, and interaction focused on customer satisfaction.

Small Businesses and Social Media

Small businesses tend to communicate with their customers better than big businesses, simply because they see them more on a face-to-face basis. That doesn’t mean social media isn’t for you. By having a Facebook and Twitter profile, you are only stretching your reach to your customers. Offer specials, discounts, promotions, and company updates to keep your customers involved and informed.

When you send out newsletters or update your blog, invite your customers to continue the conversation on Twitter or Facebook. The more that you can get people to talk, the more your company will grow. Conversation on social networks is the key to spreading your brand like wildfire, and all you have to do is get people talking.

There is not one good reason to not have a social media marketing plan. Whether you’re a big business trying to connect and understand your customers, or a small business looking to simply ‘keep in touch,’ Facebook and Twitter are the best ways to do this. You need to always be thinking of what will take a conversation to the next level, and what will spark your customers’ interests. Record what works and what doesn’t, rinse and repeat.

Remember, ROI is not always measured in initial traffic to your website, but the amount of influence you have throughout social media and the impressions that you make on your customers. If you can keep them happy by offering information and promotions to only your friends on Facebook and Twitter, you will make them feel like VIP’s and create wonderful relationships.

Social media can be a great resource to any job hunter in this rough market. With Facebook and Twitter, you are able to search out who’s hiring, post resumes on your profiles, talk to complete strangers about your work history, and make a wonderful first impression. This article will be especially important for the older generation of job hunters who did not grow up in this digital and internet age. Social media, such as Facebook and Twitter, is not as daunting as it might seem.

Sure, you could post your resume on CareerBuilder and Monster.com and hope that someone just happens to see it, and then just happens to make the first move, but it’s probably not going to happen. You could also spend hours diligently searching these two job giants, send a few resumes out to potential jobs, and hope that they take the time to look at yours as well as the thousands of others they received for the same job.

Gone are the days of simply posting your résumé on CareerBuilder, e-mailing former colleagues and trolling company websites for open slots. These days, if you’re serious about being hired, you really put your computer and PDA to work. That means getting word out on social sites like Facebook and MySpace, sending instant job-search updates via messaging feeds like Twitter, and meeting new people who might be able to lend a hand through Web-networking outfits like LinkedIn. – Time Magazine

Using LinkedIn to Find a New Boss

One of the greatest free tools that you can use as a job hunter is LinkedIn. It’s a social networking platform, much like Facebook, that allows you to update your job history and basically create a resume on a personal profile. LinkedIn will also hook you up with networking groups, people you might know, employees at jobs you’d like to work for, and employees of past jobs you’ve held.

How-To Get Started on LinkedIn

Getting started with LinkedIn requires nothing more than your name, an email address, and your password. It’s that easy. There is no reason to fret about not knowing what to do, because LinkedIn, as every other social site, walks you through set-up step by step. Once you log in, you will be directed to enter your personal and professional information. Have fun with it. Be professional, but also be light and approachable. It’s ok to gloat about your achievements, but it’s also advisable to be humble. If it’s easier, you can even import your resume directly to your profile.

Getting started on LinkedIn will probably take a good 30 minutes, depending on how much work history you want to include, and how personal you want to get. Choose a profile picture that is appropriate, but still fun.

Always allow LinkedIn to pull all of your contacts from you email. This is how your networking will begin.

Join Groups

LinkedIn is all about networking, and in the job search that is the golden ticket. It’s always about who you know, and seldom about what your resume looks like. Groups is what fuels LinkedIn, and it’s how you will connect with the right people to get you your next job.

After you allow LinkedIn to pull your email contacts, go through each one and see if there are any from your past that you’d like to reconnect with. Contact those people and just say hello, letting them know that you’ve just joined LinkedIn and might need a little advice navigating it. Just open the lines of communication.

If you have entered your previous jobs into your profile, LinkedIn will pull up other employees of those companies for you to connect with, which is a great opportunity to see what everyone else is up to and if anyone has a new gig that you might like to speak to them about.

In LinkedIn search, you can look for organizations, companies, or groups that you might want to get involved with. If you’re interested in working for Ford Motor Company, search for it. In the top right is the search box. Enter your search term and select whether you’re looking for a person, company, organization, or group. LinkedIn will pull up all results, and you’ll be able to connect with every employee of that company.

Be Proactive

No matter what social network you are using, you have got to be proactive. This is job hunting, and it’s work. You have to get the connections and meet the people who will get you your next job. Much like searching the newspaper or hitting the streets every day to find a job, social media involves jumping online every day and making it work. It’s no different than  any other job hunting method, it’s just done sitting at your desk.

Using Facebook To Land Your Next Job

Much like LinkedIn, Facebook is all about communication. It’s a networking site that, if you have the right tools, will let you advertise yourself better than any other social platform.

Getting Started with Facebook

To get started with Facebook, all you need is an email address and password. Every social media network is exactly the same in that respect. There’s nothing daunting about that. The great thing is that after you enter your email and password, Facebook, much like LinkedIn and Twitter, will guide you through the set-up process step by step. It’s that easy, and only involves a little typing and direction following.

Like with every social network, allow Facebook to make connections to your email contacts. This is crucial for networking and finding your next job on Facebook.

Find Friends and Groups

Facebook is all about sharing ideas, commenting on your friends profiles, and interacting in many different ways. To keep things simple, after you’ve created your profile you’ll want to search for possible connections. Just like LinkedIn, enter your search phrase (name, group, or company) into the search box. Facebook will do the rest.

Unlike LinkedIn, however, Facebook will not give you all employees of a specific company. You can also search for areas of interest, like car mechanics, in order to find people who have joined a group about cars. If you are looking for a specific company that you might like to work for, search for it in the search box and see what comes up. Many companies these days have Facebook Business and Fan pages, but not all members of those pages will be employees.

Posting Your Resume

Posting your resume on Facebook is a little different than any other network, because you have to do it through a third party. On the bottom left of your Facebook screen, you’ll see ‘Applications.’ Click on this, and scroll to ‘browse more applications.’ It’s here that Facebook stores all of it’s applications, which range from games to networking to business.

What you’ll want to look for is Resume applications. Search resume, or job search, and see what comes up. I personally recommend using Professional Profile, which allows you to sync to your LinkedIn profile and automatically uploads your resume from LinkedIn. It’s a great little application because Professional Profile actually posts a link to your resume directly onto the front of your Facebook page. This way, when you’re in conversation with an old colleague or a future employer all they have to do is click on the link and see your entire resume, as well as connect with you on LinkedIn.

Facebook Wall

A lot of Myspace an dTwitter users have trouble understanding Facebook at first because of the Wall. On Myspace or Twitter, everything is right in front of you. Well, Facebook is a little different.

First of all, you have your status updates, which is where most people enter their random thoughts or ideas at various times throughout the day. If you jump to a friend’s profile, you’ll see their Wall, which will include everything they have written, links they have added, and conversations they’ve had with other friends.

When you first log onto your page, you’ll see your home feed which shows either ‘news feeds’ or ‘status feeds’ from your friends. I know, it sounds daunting, but these are simple terms for updates your friends have made to their profiles. Anytime someone you are friends with adds a comment, adds a link, or changes anything to their profile, it will show up on your home feed.

Don’t let the word feed confuse you, it’s just a fancy way of saying updates or new conversations.

Finally, the tabs that you see towards the top of  every Facebook page are the applications that each individual has on their site. Most of them will just be the Wall (which is where all conversations are stored), Photos, Information, and Notes.

Be Proactive

Once again, the key to finding a job on Facebook is to be proactive. You have got to be able to jump online first thing in the morning and make those connections. Drop and old friend a line and just say hello. With Facebook, you are able to add articles from your favorite blog or online newspaper, add videos from YouTube of Vimeo, and play games. Every time you add something new to your page, you are inviting everyone to connect with you to discuss it.

Using Twitter to Stir Up Conversations

My all-time favorite marketing and networking tool is definitely Twitter. Sure, it moves insanely fast, is only capable of 140 character sentences, and is riddled with spam, but it’s the perfect tool for finding new contacts. The key with Twitter is to have the right tools.

Getting Started

At Twitter.com, all you need is your email address and password. I’m sounding like a broken record here, but simply follow the instructions to set-up your account.

TweetDeck

TweetDeck is the only way to use Twitter. Many, many people have never used Twitter and never will. They will never understand the power the Twitter has and the amazing opportunities it presents for job hunters. It’s literally like sitting at a coffee shop where the entire world is sitting at, and you have the ability to drop in on every single conversation that is happening. Want to know who’s hiring in Salem, Mass? Drop in on a conversation about it. Interested in people’s opinions of Dan Brown’s new book? Drop in on a conversation about that as well.

TweetDeck can be downloaded absolutely free from TweetDeck.com. I know, many of you would rather not download something this big when you’re just doing some job hunting, but if you’re struggling to keep food on the table and a roof over your head, there is no excuse why you wouldn’t download this free Twitter tool.

The reason why many people will try Twitter for a few weeks and then drop it is because they don’t have the right tools to use it efficiently. Twitter was never meant to be used on one screen, simply for one purpose. It has multiple purposes, and in order to fully appreciate it’s grasp you have to have tools that allow you to peer into every piece of Twitter.

So, after downloading TweetDeck go ahead and open it up. In the upper left hand corner there are icons. These are what you will use to find your next job. In the upper right hand corner are tools to help you set-up your account and search for help.

Click on the icon that looks like a wrench, select accounts, and it’s here that you will enter your Twitter username and password. It’s that easy! Now you’re ready to get searching.

Click on the blue ‘T’ icon (Twitter Icon) in the upper left hand corner. Select the magnifying glass to search for conversations. This is where the magic happens. Want to know who’s hiring in Gilbert, Arizona. Search for ‘hiring’ and ‘Gilbert, Arizona.’ Search for anything you want, and you will have instant access to conversations happening around the world and in your own backyard!

TrendsMap

TrendsMap is another tool that I highly recommend for job hunting. This tool combines a Google-like map with Twitter conversations. It’s absolutely amazing, simply because you can zoom in on an area (let’s say Gilbert, Arizona) and see exactly what people are talking about.

If you zoom to Phoenix, Arizona, you’ll see the top trending topics of the moment. If you click on one of the grey topic boxes, a conversation will pop up on the right of your screen. To find all the trending topics happening in Phoenix, click ‘Phoenix’ in the conversation box and you will be redirected to a screen that simply shows what people are talking about in this city.

For example, one of the most popular topics this morning in Phoenix, Arizona is #shjobs, which is strictly a hiring service that advertises job opportunities in Phoenix. There is no better way to find out who’s hiring and who to connect with in your local city than with TrendsMap.

Simply Search Twitter

If all of the above seems a little too complicated and time consuming, then you can simply search Twitter. If you log into your Twitter account, you’ll notice that on the right side of the screen is a bunch of topics. These are the most talked about topics for the moment on Twitter. You’ll also notice a search box.

In the search box, enter exactly what you want to find. For example, ‘hiring’ and ‘Gilbert’ and ‘Arizona,’ or something like that. Twitter will pull up every conversation about who’s hiring in Gilbert, Arizona.

Don’t Be Scared

Jumping on board the social media bandwagon during your job search is less daunting than you might think. While this is just an overview of what you can do with the power of LinkedIn, Facebook and Twitter, it should get you on the right track to making those necessary connections. Remember, it’s not about how hard you work or your experience anymore, it’s about your connections and enthusiasm.

Good luck! And if you ever need any job hunting or social media advice, don’t hesitate to contact me! I’m also on Twitter @LinwrightDesign, and Facebook!
