Can Your Potential Clients Find You on the Web?

Posted in: News/Messages

A great (free) way to advertise your business is to submit your website to popular, reputable online directories. People search different industry categories to find businesses — so the more descriptive you are about your company the better. With so many “virtual” companies these days, you don’t even need a storefront to be included in online directories. Submitting your website to online directories increases your backlinks (links back to your site from other sites) which, in turn, helps with search engine optimization (SEO).

Don’t have the time to submit your business to the directories? Contact iDesigns!

RIP Geocities

Posted in: News/Messages

My first “Website” (yes, I use the term “Website” loosely here) was with Yahoo’s Geocities in the early ‘90s. My friends and I mainly used it to post pictures of our favorite celebrities. As of today, October 26, Geocities is no more. If you happen to have any files or content stored on your Geocities service, be sure to back it up or move it today, otherwise, it is gone forever.

Have a Geocities memory you would like to share? Email me at amy@idesignssolutions.com or post a comment.

WordPress Worm

Posted in: News/Messages

You may have heard of a worm that is posting malware and spam to some WordPress blogs. We have checked into this, and since all of our clients are using WordPress version 2.8.4, they are unaffected by this worm. However, if you experience any problems, please contact us immediately.
