Week 13

Google Analytics

My site is not doing very well. I have hardly any visitors (except for me). My adwords doesn't seem to be attracting anyone either. My next plan is to really target contacts and social media. I need to get in touch with former students and have them link to the site and also give me testimonials from the class they took and from the book. That will add a lot to my site.

Woorank is an awesome tool. It has given me several ideas to improve my site. I have started making some of the improvements but it is going to take some time. I have lots of images that I need to add better descriptions on. Hopefully my score will increase.

Lesson 10

Well this has been quite the week. It was my last week at my current job. I had to spend most of the week training a new employee. I start my new  job at BYUI on Monday. My evenings were full of church assignments. The first half of the week I did not get the assignment done. It was on conversion. I plan to start that tonight. I finished Project 3 and was surprised that my website has some visitors. One Ad is doing OK and the other ad is not doing good at all. I plan to revise the ads and hope for a better response. I am not making any changes to my keywords until mid next week. I want to watch it for a little longer before I change anything.

Week 7 This week we learned about creating an Adwords campaign. I have to be honest, this is very confusing for me. I am also very leary about using google adwords for my particular website. I don't intend for this website to generate a lot of income. My main purpose of my site is to attract visitors to my husband's website and to sell his textbook. His textbook can benefit people other than byui students, so eventually people may buy his book that aren't students at byui. We also learned a lot about how to choose our keywords. This lesson was very beneficial because I now realize how important it is to choose the right words or phrases. I am still working on my website. I thought using a "drag and drop" builder would be helpful, but I find that it is a lot of work to learn the program. I also realize that I am not that good at designing. I want it to look  a certain way but am having problems getting it to look the way I want.

Lesson 8 - Ads and Ad Groups

This week we created an ad to use in Google Adwords. I was happy with the one I created. I feel that it grabs the attention of the reader and it also has a call to action. Here is my ad: Media Experimentation – Learn New Ways to Create Art Work Ad   www.wadehuntsmanart.com/purchase A step-by-step guide to traditional painting – Order your book now. My website is coming along. I was docked on my grade because I did not have a paypal link. I actually had the link in my website for about 2 weeks. I took it out a couple days ago because I am going to be selling the book through blurb.com. Bro. Luke looked at the website right after I took out the link. I am still working on the blurb link because it isn't working right. I still have a lot of images to add to the site as well as making it more attractive.
