We are Nashville Strong

We are heartbroken to hear about the tornados that have affected Nashville and the surrounding areas. This hits close to home for several on our team here as we have family and friends in the area as well as a love for this beautiful city. Our team purchased these shirts from Shop Local KY to show our support. 100% of proceeds went to the Community Foundation of Middle Tennessee for the Middle Tennessee Emergency Response Fund. Our thoughts and prayers are still with this beautiful city and those affected by the tragedy.

Get one of these? IGNORE IT!

We get calls and emails all the time from customers when they receive these notifications....IGNORE THEM!  It is easy to see why many get nervous and why so very many go ahead and fill them out - sending the fees in.  DOMAIN NAME EXPIRATION NOTICE would make you stop reading and when you see your URL address and a date, you are automatically going to think it needs to be handled.  You're too busy to remember when you last paid for that www.com address you own.  Makes perfect sense. 

When we point out the bottom of the 2nd paragraph where it states in BOLD "This notice is not a bill, it is rather an easy means of payment should you decide to switch your domain name registration to..." they take are no longer worried and have avoided a high cost and company that clearly does not have their best interest in mind.    Having us here and available with a simple phone call or email to be able to check things like the IDNS "domain expiration notice" letters is just one of the many things we do here at JASPERwebsites.com to keep your costs down and provide customer service.  There are so many programs out there that are taking advantage of our shops and if you have a question on a program you question, simply get in touch and we will let you know what we find out as well as post it here for our other clients to see. 

We focus on keeping your internet marketing running smoothly so you can focus on running your business!  *Team JASPERwebsites!

Google Started Mobile First Indexing - What does that mean??

First batch of Mobile First Indexing by Google started March 26, 2018 and the fourth batch of notices went through May 27, 2018.  Notifications that websites have been moved over to the mobile-first index which means the Googlebot will now use the "Mobile Version" of your website for indexing and ranking.  Goggle's crawling, indexing, and ranking systems had been using your desktop website information for anyone searching by desktop to return search results which can differ for those who have an alternative "mobile version" for mobile visitors.  Typically you will notice this when you see View Desktop Version or View Full Website Link on the bottom of your mobile view.  You also note that your website address reflect the letter m in front of it when viewing it on a mobile device.

What does that mean for those who do not have a responsive website or have an "mobile version" of their website?  How does that affect you? 
1.  Those searching by desktop will still get your desktop website version - those searching mobile will still get your mobile version.
2.  The search results, ranking and information however will be based on the information gained from using the information on your MOBILE Website version. 
3.  There will be ONE index vs. two previously if you had two versions of your website.
4.  If you do not have a responsive website that is fully mobile just the desktop do not worry,  this is only about how they gather information not how you rank.  Ranking is still about content - content - content first then other factors such as how your business looks online as a whole and is your website responsive (i.e. mobile friendly) as well as how fast it loads.

SEO How to WIN Readers & GOOGLE

CONTENT IS KING.....first rule of winning the top spot on Google!  That being said, it has to be relevant to your business and the good news is that now more than ever before it is easier.  A few years ago, you had to add keywords and force-feed the information.  Now the "robots" can understand natural sentence structure like never before and Google anticipates that by 2020 more than 40% of all search will be verbal!  Also, more than 50 Billion mobile devices will be in the hands of your consumers!  Get ready!

For you that is a WIN-WIN because marketing will be easier than ever before and more cost effective as you can pivot in minutes to attract customers IF YOU ARE READY.  Now, there are more factors at play as Google has become quite complex in their rankings as their customers have evolved, however, if you look at how you utilize search it will make more sense to you.  SEO will always be shrouded in mystery but at the base it is all based on simple cornerstones.  Take a look.

It's no longer an option, you have to be online.

With the explosion of mobile search and local search it is no longer an option for you to put off getting your business listed online the right way.  Simply put business has changed, marketing has changed, and your customer base has changed providing opportunity as well as challenges.  Different and new can be intimidating, however, it really is EASIER - FASTER - LESS EXPENSIVE than traditional marketing has been which are all positive factors.  Quite simply if you are not online, your customers are not finding you as that is where they are looking.

Verizon moving email to AOL

Starting February 2017, Verizon began to shift away from focusing on email service for it's customers. Focusing on providing their other services (tv, phone, and internet) in a stronger capacity, Verizon has partnered with AOL in order to continue providing email services while focusing resources on other pursuits. This change is coming free of charge to all current customers with a current verizon.net email address that is being moved to AOL. The email change will not affect any other Verizon services. If you currently have a verizon.net email address, you'll still have the option to keep that same address going forward, alternatively adopting the AOL address.
