How to Craft an Effective Title for Your Blog Post

 
 
 
Thinking about how to craft the most effective title for your blog post?  Last week, we discussed how toMake Your Blog Posts “Must Reads”, and a strong title is important to reel readers into your posts. 
 
 
When your title is strong, your reader may want to share the post link with friends spreading your readership.  Also, the words you choose in your post title will display in search result pages and on social media sites where your post was shared.

Your Websites Support Team is Building Great Sites, Too!

 
 
Last week, we ran a “Best Website” competition for your websites support team, where agents submitted sites that they cooked up themselves using the Vistaprint Site Builder.   Pushing the team who serves you every day on the phones to design their best websites keeps their skills sharp for all your questions.
 
Damion took the design prize withwww.theglasshouseja.com.  Check out how he customized his site’s header and footer, used the forms extra to gather requests and comments from prospective customers, and showcased his products with image galleries.

Website Traffic: Why You Need to Measure It

 
 
Understanding and tracking your website activity is a ‘must’ to becoming a successful internet marketer.   You should be consistently using your customer metrics to understand who your customers are, what motivates them to come and visit your site. You can use these learnings to make improvements to your site to drive new visits, return visits, and ultimately sales.  
 
But where do you start?  Let’s take a look at some ways in which you can quickly and easily analyze your site traffic.

Your Perfect Domain Name

 
 
Have you been sitting at your computer for hours trying to decide on the perfect domain name for your website?  Have you came up with a domain name but didn’t think it was good enough?  Oftentimes you’ll think you have the perfect name only to find out that someone else owns it and you have to start from scratch. 
 
 
A question I come across from customers is “How do I choose the perfect domain name?”  As you create yourwebsitechoosing your domain name is as important as designing your pages.

Make Your Blog Posts "Must Reads"

 
 
 
Your blog posts’ effectiveness increases your blog and website’s performance, boosting return visits.  Results can be seen through post visits, commenting on that post and shares of your post on social media sites. 
 
 
 
Be Yourself and Take Time to Write
 
Blog posts can be most desirable for readers when you give them a unique point of view and tell them something they didn’t know.  Spend some time to consider what you want to write- whether it’s announcing an event or sale, sharing updates, or discussing topics of interest to you or your business.
