Book Review: Joe by H.D. Gordon

Joe by H.D. Gordon
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Joe is no ordinary person, but there is something detectably different about her. You see she has this ability that makes her special. I won't tell you what it is, you'll have to read the book to find out that much. But I will tell you that Joe still feels like everyone else. She is still trying to find her self and find out where here place is in the world. She still has parents, like a great many of us, who forgot how to love us for one reason or another along the way. She still has deep rooted self esteem issues. She still deals with the trials and tribulations of her young adult life.

All the while, Joe carries a gigantic weight on her shoulders. She knows what it but doesn't know the when, who or what. As she pieces together the puzzle, the burden grows larger because she feels alone and time is running out.

In the end, the pieces start to fall together as she begins to realize that her gift may not be a curse after all.

Objectives and Risks of Owning a Small Business Website

website ideas (Photo credit: Sean MacEntee)

Having a website is one thing, but marketing it is something completely different. There is no magic button, or special hidden secret to marketing your website. There are however a few things that must be done in order to market your website appropriately. There is no use in having a website if no one ever sees it!
According to Sutevski the most important objectives for a business website are:

Reaching the target market.
Attract visitors to your Website.
Encourage them to buy your products and services – to take action.
Make them to want to come back to your Website for free or paid content, products or services.

Creating a website that will appeal to your target market is important. Otherwise you will have a high bounce rate, which means that your potential customers are not staying on your site very long. People don't stay on websites very long because they are not finding what they are looking for. It's important to make it appealing to the eye as well as interesting to your niche.

Attracting visitors by submitting your URL to search engines and using meta tags is not enough. If you want traffic you have to use network marketing. That means Pinterest, Twitter, Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn, Tumblr and so many more. Pick a few that you like and are comfortable with. Make sure when posting to your network that you are not bombarding your potential customers with ad after ad. Post original and premium content. Be creative and watch your followers grow.

No one is buying your products? Is your website set up for payments? How are your item descriptions? Do you have quality photos of your products or the work that you have done?

If you want your customers to come back you need to remind them. The easiest way to do this is with a mailing list. Set up a sign up box on your website with a short form your customers can fill out their personal information. Send out emails with promotions and special events.

As far as risks go, security is the top priority. According to The Startups Team "Credit card criminals are increasingly turning their attention to smaller e-commerce sites, using stolen credit cards to buy goods online, so you have to have the right level of security in place." If you are keeping this information in house on your own servers you need to make sure that it is protected. If you have contracted a separate entity to manage this information for you steps need to be taken to ensure the security of your customer's information.

Picture Post

Let's face it. You're always busy. I am always busy. That is just life. I figured I would take a little break from a busy day to delight you with some recent photographs of how awesome my life has been lately! Between a break up, quitting my job, starting school, finding the man of my dreams, getting a new puppy and still trying to find time to sun bathe I'd say my life has been hectic. That doesn't mean that I stop appreciating all the amazingness that is my life! I hope you enjoy these!

Follow your heart!
