Comment on Small Business SEO: How to Optimize Press Releases by Bill Treloar

Good point. Make sure you know in advance what keyword phrases you want your press release to support and use them in your headline and in the text of your press release. Use them several times, but avoid keyword stuffing.

Comment on Business That Cares: Hey, Small Business Week! What About … by Lalia Helmer

Thank you for posting my suggestions about small business philanthropy! Times are such that even small businesses need to address the question of whether and they should be giving back to their local communities.
This is an individual decision for any small business owner, but can affect all kinds of areas of business management that needs to be considered as part of the development of the business.
If you know of any interesting stories of small businesses and their philanthropy please send them on!
Would love your thoughts on all of this also.

Comment on Small business? Give your input on health bill (The Daily Comet) by Randy Hayes

Get the work back in this country,and jobs will increase along with people paying taxes, SS,Medicare,and everything else that goes along with people WORKING HERE!. The working men and women will start spending if they have it to spend. Our state and federal officals should start getting paid according to what We the People say about there performance and duties.Someone told me that here in Tennessee,our school teachers will be getting paid according to the T-CAP scores.I`m sure some lame brain came up with this socialist ideal so lets pay our state and federal government this same pay scale.You know,based on how much they have actually done anything for our town,city, state etc..Again,people not working cannot help with much of anything.They need money to spend and there taxes are needed as well.Lets get our jobs back in America and all else will fall in place just has it has done in times past.Thank You,Randy Hayes

Comment on Bad Credit Small Business Start Up Loans: a Viable Financial Option by Maria Smith

Maria Smith — Mon, 22 Mar 2010 20:30:55 +0000

I run a small online business marketplace (http://www.biz2credit.com) that connects entrepreneurs with possible lenders and financing options. There are small loans available to businesses to startups or entrepreneurs with less-than-perfect credit histories. There are non-profits that focus on providing small, flexible business loans. The rates and terms vary according to the loan use, the borrower’s strength, location and industry. We have a large network of national, regional and local banking institutions that use our system, and many of these non-profits also use our site to find business borrowers.

Comment on Small Business Opportunities Ideas - Finding Success In Cyberspace by Sharon Schierling

“The advent of the Internet has significantly altered the way we do business. And savvy entrepreneurs know that in order to be successful they must have a powerful online presence.”
This is such a true statement. As a business coach I am even seeing with my MLM clients that the business they represent are now helping them get online, not only with the obligatory web site, but with squeeze pages, email scripting and serious follow-up programs that practically run on auto pilot. This is a huge boon to someone who heretofore, was told to make a list of family and friends. I coach my clients to get online but with many companies they are strictly forbidden from leaning into that technology because of what they might say about the products.
The travel industry has embraced this technology and I believe as an MLM they will definitely take over that industry. I have given an example in my web site of just what I mean.
The bottom line is online marketing is here to stay. I completely agree with your thoughts regarding planning and strategic thinking, especially with this new technology. Very good article.
