How does this site benefit my business?Apart from all the main benefits our site provides, such as your listing, events, your blogs, articles, coupons, products, shop and book listings etc; first and foremost, we help with generating leads for your business or service by increasing the profile of your business which drives customers to your door. This is part of the marketing you do for your business. Some of the ways we help with this are detailed below.
SEO - Search engine OptimisationIf you want your business to succeed you need to be seen. SEO is one of the most important parts of your marketing efforts and getting backlinks to your site from other sites is very important for search engines to find you and rate your information. First get your website’s structure and content right then obtain a good amount of high quality backlinks. SEO is generally divided into two parts; on-page optimisation (content & structure), and off-page optimisation (backlinks & social media). Backlinks from other websites to your site are essentially a ‘vote’ that tell the search engines that you are trusted and a good resource for whatever your content is about (the link anchor text helps determine how you rank for what keywords). One of the best ways to do this is to submit your details to online directories.
An online directory is one of the best ways to generate backlinks.There are literally thousands of online business directories on the web but not many like ours. Online directories are a very good place to get a free backlink, although approval can sometimes take months for the free option (it’s quicker if you pay for it!). Google likes online directories because they are moderated (to avoid spam submissions) and they are indexed and organised into categories giving relevance to your submission. With us you get more than one backlink, you potentially get dozens, from all your events, products, blogs, articles and profile.
We give you the opportunity to write helpful contentThis is probably one of the most powerful methods to obtain backlinks to your site. Make a good site, write good quality content/articles and the backlinks will come. Whether it be in forums or other people’s website, if you write content that interests people and is a helpful source of information, people will link to it. Here at Brighton Mind Body & Spirit you have great opportunities to do just that, not only with Blogs but with Articles which increase your own respect and kudos within your community and business.
Reviews , comments on blogs and other mediaWith us you can also receive reviews which helps with your business kudos and respect. By posting messages or comments yourself on blogs and articles is another good way to bring backlinks to your site and social media sites.
Social Networking & BookmarkingThere is no denying that social networking has exploded and taken over the world, pretty much everyone now has a Facebook and Twitter account. Google now uses links on social website’s as a ranking factor, so why not every now and again post links to your site and maybe some articles that you have written. We help with your marketing by posting your events, blogs, articles etc to our own social media outlets! If you are not keen on keeping your social media up to date this a great bonus for you.
How is spam avoided? How do I get my leads?When someone fills out the contact form and sends it, the lead is first vetted by us before passing it to you.Visitors can either send their message to you only or they could opt to "get replies from more members," which means they can ask the same question of other paid members of the directory should they want to. So the lead could be sent to other members as well as yourself. Premium members would be offered the lead first in these circumstances.
