How Important Is a Web Presence?

I know this is a touchy area for some, because many health practitioners are technophobes. But if you're interested in using your healing talents to help as many as possible, you need to reach out to others. Using online tools such as email and building an active web prescence can bring you a steady stream of clients who want your services. The web offers lots of ways to really leverage what you are doing by communicating with people who are seeking you out. It allows you to effectively at little or no cost to communicate with your existing clients as well as reach new ones. If you ignore the web, you are ignoring a simple business building tool that allows you to express who you are, how you work and what you can do for others.

Simple Web checklist:

• Use email to stay in touch with existing clients
• Submit articles to increase traffic to your website and build your profile as an expert
• Free directory listings can increase your website rankings and make you easier to find
• Use social marketing such as facebook to stay in touch with friends and associates and remind people you are there

Getting Started:

I recommend starting with one 500 word article (about half an A4 page) on a subject that would be of interest to your ideal client. Use this article to:

• Include in your newsletter (don't have one? Start now...)
• Post on your blog
• Post as a 'note' on your facebook page
• Submit to article directories (this will direct traffic to your website if you have one and increase your online prescence)
