Are you a Christian? Are you shining for Jesus in this dark world? Living for God means serving as Jesus did. It can be challenging, but Christians have the Holy Spirit dwelling inside of us to enable us to  live a life that is more like Jesus and less like ourselves. Some of these ways include:

  • Our words and conversation – They should be pure without unkind words or cussing, and encouraging to others!
  • Our charity – Giving of our time, our gifts and our money to help those who are in need physically and mentally.
  • Living a pure life – Not only does this mean sexually, but also in our thoughts, actions and deeds.

shine for jesus

Our life should be lived as a servant, as Jesus did while on this earth.  Our lives should not be boastful or prideful. but show the fruit of the spirit mentioned in Galatians 5:22-23:

But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self-control.

So how does this coincide with Christian search engine optimization? My answer is simple. You can shine for Jesus on the internet to the millions of people who are searching for the answer you have! Don’t let this opportunity pass you by. God has opened your eyes and given you the gift of eternal life. Don’t hide this gift! Share it with the world!

Question: How do I get people to visit my website?

Answer: You don’t! The better way to market your website is to let people who are searching for your product or business in a search engine (Such as Google or Yahoo) find your website!

Do you see the difference? In the old days of marketing, TV ads, radio spots and print ads “waved flags” and did silly stuff to try and get the attention of the consumer. The larger the crowd, the more the marketing cost in hopes of gaining greater sales!

Search Engine Optimization (SEO) helps the small business be found in a very large internet world. When people search for information, products or businesses, you want your small business to be found above the competition. Correct? :)

To answer the question a little deeper, there are lots of factors to be considered to get traffic to your website. Here are a five basic factors to look at:

  1. Is your website search engine (SEO) friendly?
  2. Do you comment and share your website link with other websites?
  3. Do you have any web development issues that might hinder search engines from returning to your website?
  4. Do you carry business cards that advertise your website?
  5. Do you add content frequently to your website?

If you are a business you might be asking, “Can I learn SEO for my business?” The answer is, “Yes, you can!” SEO is important for anyone who owns a website. If you don’t learn SEO tactics or have an SEO company do the work for you, the outcome will not be good.

Can I Learn SEO?If you are a SEO newbie and need a 101 class, my recommendation is to get several hours of “hands-on” consultation from us. Once you have learned the basics, you will then have a foundation and know what your next step should be with search engine optimization.

After some initial consultation, you can choose to continue to learn with us or pick up a popular book such as SEO Book by Aaron Wall.

We’ve had several clients who asked, “Can I learn SEO?” We assured them they could learn and Tom and I taught them the basics of SEO practice. Some clients were content and afterward continued on their own. Other clients realized that SEO skills are detailed and time consuming and chose for our SEO company, SEO Does Matter, to do the work while they continue working with clients.

But don’t just stand there and do nothing. The worse mistake you can make is ignoring the need for optimizing your website in search engines! You can learn SEO for your business today to get the leads and traffic you need!
