Promote Your Bead Jewelry Blog

 

Well done on starting your own blog dedicated to bead jewellery! Your web presence now includes photo displays of your beadwork, perhaps some humorous anecdotes, and perhaps a shop link, but you've discovered that nobody seems particularly interested in what you have to offer.

How can you improve your website's traffic? Great advice is as follows

1. Include your website address and email address on all of the printed material you create for your bead jewellery business, such as business cards, flyers, and even informational cards that might be included with the bead jewellery you sell. People attending a trade fair are busy, and some of them will pass by your craft stand without stopping to look at what you have to offer. Once they go home, many of them will want to check out your web portfolio.
   
   
2. Always remember to sign off with your full name and the URL to your bead jewellery website when communicating via email. The recipient may need this information even if you're merely sending a joke. Some random person may read your email, fall in love with your jewellery, and then share your website with their friends.
   
   
3. Leave relevant comments on relevant forums and blogs; this includes reading other fantastic bead jewellery blogs even if you don't plan on writing one yourself. Your kodiak beaded jewelry store's website address belongs in the forum's signature, where users can view additional information about your business. While this may not result in a large influx of visitors, it does increase your visibility to other beading enthusiasts who happen to be perusing the same blog post as you and/or commenting on it. In online discussion groups, the same holds true. If the rules of the forum or board permit it, you should always include a link to your website in your signature whenever you post a message related to bead jewellery. To find out how this works on a given beading site, you should check its regulations.
   
   
4. To advertise a great website, you can use radio, newspaper, and even television commercials. Initially, I would look into regional papers and alternative outlets. This is an example of a basic advertisement that could run in a newspaper or online: "Unique Beads and Jewelry Making Materials of Every Description! Check out this website: http://www.beadjewelryblog.com" In addition to being cheap to run, this advertisement might also drive traffic to your website, where they may view stunning, high-resolution images.
   
   
5. Make regular updates to your site so that visitors will have a cause to return. Visitors can be retained with a monthly email, a giveaway of a free pair of earrings, or even just the occasional sale. Also, once they've been a client or friend, they'll likely want to return to check out what's new.
   
   
6. You have your website up and running, therefore the next step is to submit it to various search engines and directories. Although increased traffic to your site may be slow in the beginning, it will eventually appear.
   
   
7. Link Exchange: Contact other bloggers who write about bead jewellery and ask them to link to your site or feature a brief review of your work. I maintain a blog devoted to bead jewellery, and one of my favourite things to do is to showcase the work of up-and-coming bead jewellery designers. They frequently point readers to my blog, so I update it frequently. To succeed as beaders, we must support one another.
