My Name On Google? Who Me?
Have you ever "Googled" yourself? I did and I was dumb-founded! You
know that little Google box at the top of your screen? If it's not there, go
to Google and download their toolbar. Once it's installed, type your name in
there and see what comes up. I typed my name and 10 pages came up and put me
into shock! This totally proved to me that writing articles and submitting them
does get you noticed. You will be surprised at how much it will do for your
ranking.
Don't like to write articles? Neither did I, but after I saw how much it helped
my website hits, I lost my shyness. Once I get started, I find it gets easier
to write an article. Getting started is hard, but just go with your feelings
and type them out. It may not be the greatest article in the world, but it's
YOUR article....good or bad. The more you do it the easier it gets. If you've
got a website, tell people about it. If you've got something you are trying
to sell, explain the benefits of it. If the Internet confuses you and leaves
you feeling lost in a multitude of websites, tell people about it. There's millions
of things to write about and millions of people wanting to read it. Go for it!
Don't let the Internet intimidate you.
I'm not an "Internet Guru", by any means, it takes a lot of time
and money to get that ranking, but I've learned a lot from them. And the majority
agree, writing articles gets you noticed, and for that, I can definitely vouch
for. They may not be right on everything they say, but they sure know their
stuff on the article thing.
I've got a few websites going and when I checked my hits, I discovered that
a lot of them have actually come from article sites I've submitted to, and that
makes the torture of writing worth it. If you absolutely can't write, search
on the Internet for someone who will write an article for you. It will cost
some money, but you can put your name as the author and submit it to all the
article sites. Then you can "Google" your name and watch the links
come up! Too cool! Makes you feel like you're not totally lost out there. I
love typing my name on the Google search bar and watching all the links come
up. It's sort of like Steve Martin in The Jerk with the phonebook....I'm Somebody!
