Hi, this is artist Tara Reed and you are probably wondering why I have field goal posts on my head
and the reason is that I believe building a website for your art
that gets the traffic that you want
as far as clients, collectors, manufacturers...
is equivalent to placing your website within the field goal... I'm going to take this off my head so I can explain a little bit..
So you design a website and it's one of a zillion websites out there, and what you need to do is you need to optimize it
it's called Search Engine Optimization or SEO for short.
That basically means that when people do a Google search or any other, Yahoo... or any other search engine
that when they are looking for what you provide, your website is right here.
You are the field goal. They are going to find you every time.
And the goal to really good SEO is to be on the first page.
How many times have you done a Google search and actually gone and looked at what kind of information was available on the fifth page?
Not many people go past the first, second or third page.
So your goal, is to get your art in front of the people that are looking for it
on page one, two or three. Ideally on page one.
