Comment on FAQ – Get More Traffic by Saving Yourself Time. by SeoDamian

As Schulzrose suggests, Timothy Ferriss’ 4 Hour Workweek can provide some great ideas for how to ’shortcut’ these ideas. I would suggest, doing a ‘training’ of best practices of what you expect. Ask for lots of questions and really get specific with the answers. But record it. A simple recorder is less then $35 if you do not have one already. Video may be easier. Then
– have someone convert it to digital
– Have it transcribed (there are sources online that will convert for about $4-5 per hour.
– Take the transcription and put in some priliminary edits. Mostly focus on cleaning up the answers to say what you meant to say.
– Send the transcription to a copy writer and ask them to create to outputs – a FAQ page, and an employee manual. The FAQ will be more focused on the customer perspective and most common issues. The employee manual more on perspective of what the team should do to meet the needs of the customer.
– Pass around both documents to staff – ask for them to review and comment, and sign off that they not only have read, but understand what they have read.

This can be a lot more valuable then writing it all yourself from scratch, and a lot easier.

There are many other approaches including buying templated employee manuals and customizing as needed, but those do not have as much addressing of the specifics of your business’ situation. So I would recommend looking at them to see what is covered, and to create potential outlines for your presentation that you will record.

I hope this helps.

Are you trying to say that the FAQ page can be a key part of the employee manual for my staff, as a way of following the E-Myth?

I don’t like writing much, is there a way to shortcut this?

Comment on Google Spiders-I’m arachnophobic, and I don’t think I want spiders in my website by Damian

You should only need to register one page, if all the other pages are linked to from the original page. If not there is probably a more fundamental issue with your site for your human visitors in being able to get to the different pages.

Google is definitely looking at links within your site, as well as links outside of your site.

You can register multiple pages, but it is not recommended to register them at the same time (wait a few days between each, IF Google has not had its spiders look at all of your pages. Remember, that the spider adds to it’s list of to do’s each page it sees linked from the 1st page it starts with, so it should find all of the pages on your site.

Can you only register one page of your website, or do you register your whole website? How do you choose which page to register if its only one page? Enquiring minds want to know…

If you have multiple pages on your website, and you link back to other pages in your site, does that count as a link that the spider counts, or is it only links to other sites?

Nice post! I’ve had the question of breadcrumbs come up in classes recently, and wasn’t exactly sure how Google interacted with them. Thanks for the info!

Comment on Will PPC increase in 2009? by SeoDamian

In the world of DVR (Digitial Video Recording like TiVo and other boxes from satellite and cable companies), timeshifting (watching TV programs at a time other then when they were originally televised, becomes a major issue in measuring viewership. This is most significant because TV stations set their rates based on how many people are watching shows. Ratings and Sweeps have been around for a long time often associated with the ‘Neilson Ratings’. However when 20+ percent of viewers can be watching a show later on VCR or TiVo it throws all the old numbers into an uproar.

One of the ways to address this (this is an area that is very much evolving-measuring viewership when viewers have control over when they watch or consume) is to measure how many view a program within a 24 hour period of its initial showing (I watched it when I got home to talk about it tomorrow around the water cooler), or within 7 days (I went to Carl’s game on Tuesday so I watched it on Saturday afternoon). These tend to be the edge of where the ‘value’ of a ‘timely’ ad can be measured. This may or may not take into account viewers watching an online version at sites like Hulu.com.
