As you can tell I am on a blogging and marketing resources kick this week. If you are here to read more about design, I promise to move more in that direction next week. But this week is all about sharing some of my favorite places I like to read, comment on and learn about blogging, social media, and promotion. As a designer and SEO consultant, I find promotion through online sources such as social, blogging and guest writing, very important part of design. The way I see it is, you can design all day, but if no one knows who you are, never seen what you can do, then you do not exist. In order to exist in the modern age, we need to use the internet. The internet is the fastest way to get your name known to the world. A few short years ago using the internet may not have ben the best way to advertise, back then the best was still through TV / radio and hard copy adds. For local businesses this is still important, but if you are trying to pull in new buisness from outside of your local buisness areas, then you need to do some online marketing. Online market can be very simple and cheap or it can be extensive, time consuming and expensive. Deciding what route you want to go is all up to your goals and on your budget.  One of the cheapest ways to go is do the marketing yourself through social media and running a blog. If done correctly you can easily build a list of new customers and build your rank in the search engine. By doing this your local buisness traffic should also go up.
