The internet has caused a drastic twist to the classic, “word of mouth advertising”. Recommending restaurants, movies, products and even services to your friends and family is what word of mouth advertising is all about. And it just got much easier because of the internet and social media.
Social media has changed everything. Now instead of being limited, to making friends with your neighbor down the street, you can go on the world wide web and connect with anyone for around the world.
The crazy thing is 43.8% of traffic on the web is captured by social media. Google is in a close second with 33.2%. So with all this love going around on social media how can you take advantage of the piece of the pie?
Simple, you need to become a information wave station. People Love information. Believe it or not if they see value that entices them to spread the word.
Where can you set up shop to give information?
A wordpress blog. But not just any blog that talks about your family and whatever else you feel like talking about that day. This blog is going to be the hub or the Heart of your business. The big differences between a regular blog (that you update about your life etc) and the heart is the design layout and content.
What’s that you say, You already have a website that your company gave you. Sorry but that is a replicated website. Google has seen a million of them and so have other people. That site isn’t unique to you and it doesn’t help you brand yourself.
