Of course anyone who is tech or Internet savvy knows that you don’t just build a website, launch it, and leave it at that. There’s a lot of work to be done. For instance, I’ve had to edit some text here and there, check for bad links, modify some images, etc. I’ve also been reading about SEO (Search Engine Optimization) which is very important, if you want to see your site rise up in the search engines, especially Google and Yahoo (the two giants). Again I’ve headed for Peter Kent’s excellent Search Engine Optimization for Dummies. I don’t know why, but I find the For Dummies books irresistible; it’s hard to put down (literally) a For Dummies book once I start!
You can go to my website and see some changes I’ve made, particularly the home page. I also want to encourage you to send me feedback, so I can learn and see what viewers want. Thanks in advance.

Oh yes, the joys of SEO and the millions of ways to improve rankings on nearly anything. That’s a toughy for sure! There are so many suggestions, so many hints, which are right? Which ones work? Just how much time does it all really take?
Just remember, like the website creation – baby steps. Do one thing at a time you can’t do it all at once. And the results are just as slow to come. Those darn bots just don’t know to check my site everyday – sometimes takes weeks to see the fruits of my SEO labors….uh…..when I bother to do something on that front
Thanks! Really interesting. Big ups!
Well you know what babies are like, don’t you, Doris? They wanna take giant steps when they should be taking baby steps
