ACPR Blog

I’ve been using a site called Website Grader in the last few days. It will appeal to you if you know a few things about SEO but are unsure what to do next to improve your site rating. Website Grader looks at everything from your tags to your sites listings on directories, and makes suggestions about blogs and contact forms. It has helped me pick up a few things that were wrong on my site and hopefully improve the way www.acpr.co.uk is picked up on search engines. I’m also using it for www.familyfriendlyworking.co.uk, where I have started a new blog about flexible work and mumpreneurs. Hope you find it useful too.

If you have not yet signed up to Google Alerts, you are missing out on one of the easiest wasys to see if your promotional efforts are working. It is ideal for business owners or anyone in PR or SEO. Simply enter your business name - or if you work with clients, the name of your client’s company - and you will get daily alerts to new occurances of the brand on the internet. In their Link Building Article, KKSmarts recommend using it to track when other sites use articles you have written. I use it to see when press releases get used in unexpected places. Try it today.

I stumbled across website KKSMarts which has some great articles about Search Engine Optimisation and how to use Adwords. The articles are just the right length and each contains a few points for you to follow up, written in non-techy language. Have a browse. You might also want to sign up for their adwords or SEO courses: if you do, let me know if you find them useful.
