Citation Sites

Hey Folks, today I'd like to briefly touch base on Citation Sites; as an alternative to Paid SEO
(Search Engine Optimization) - I've been there-done that and was not very pleased with my results twice around for many months.

In fact after attending a Thunder-in-a-Jar event (aka: Business Masterminding and such) in New York I came to understand that SEO algorithms are not something that general businesses are supposed to be able to measure; you just trust that those folks are doing their jobs and you dish out your cash! Sounds Good, lets hop on board!!!

I'm good thanks. Instead, I took to Skype with a mentor of mine from Houston, TX and we discussed favorable work arounds to the taunting idol that are SEO and their Good Boy Points.
Algorithms are an internal business affairs counting methodology (You pay someone for a Thumbs Up that you're doing Good).

I decided to openly discuss something I'd only been discussing with clients; hoping their networks would boomerang back to me. Most people don't consider Citation Sites to have much of an impact, but they really do; with Paid and Unpaid Profile Options which determines the ad release numbers.

Do you want your business to get discovered?
Build a Site. Get a Video Done. Market yourself Better. (I'll discuss that later)
Sitting on your hands won't speak to people.

Thanks,

MMA Promotional Ad

Hey folks, so last year I came home from working as a technical support agent and found a door hanger for an MMA company that's based locally; after getting in touch with their primary representative and working out a deal to cover their event in exchange for sample work that they could use to advertise...which I'm pretty sure they didn't bother with.

Said Promotional Spot is actually located in the Portfolio section of my website: ThreeGinsMedia.com

So, following up a year later I was browsing through the drive to delete old project files to make room for new ones and I came across the MMA files I had held at bay; long story short I realized that there are a ton of MMA and variety style fighters looking to get noticed and I've worked video services in that area before, first it was actually a company a good buddy of mine was a part owner in called: PWF (Professional Wrestling Freedom).

Now I'd like to Revive that opportunity for individual fighters looking to get ahead. The video provided below is the new promotional ad for MMA Fighters.

I encourage you to share this with both fighters and sponsors.

Mobile Friendly Websites

Hey Everyone, I had a really solid Holiday Season and the Business Prospects that will keep 3Gins busy in the early quarter of 2016 have Great Capability indeed. I enjoy helping fellow businesses grow along-side my own; some are moving up, some moved to better locations and some are ready to create their online presence after shedding basic concerns upon where and when to start.
Never-fear, businesses with Good Leadership looking to Improve will always find a way.

I'd been wasting my time on an aspect of trying to incorporate other skilled individuals in certain areas of my growing business; hoping to offer more capabilities. That's not panned out very well as of current- Something about being Transparent and Consistent.

Anyway, without further adue I'd like to share a quick video thats really something for Small and Growing Businesses to Keep in Mind.

Making sure your Business has a Mobile Friendly Website and Why its important (in a nutshell).

There will be a follow-up to this video in the next few weeks; its not directly at the top of my current agenda.


Solid Deals.
