Hi. I don't know if anyone can help, I have redone my freeindex site a couple of times. I am getting maybe 40-50 hits a month, however only a small percentage are going through to my website. Can anyone help me with where I am going wrong?

Thanks

Lindsay

Hi

A suggestion would be to incorporate more information about the benefits of the services you offer. How have they helped individuals and businesses, for example? Can you compile any "success story" case studies?

Also, if you can get more recommendations that describe how clients have benefited from your services, that would be helpful.

Thirdly, what kind of offer(s) could you put on Freeindex that compels the reader to go to your website to find out more?

Ensure you register in as many categories as possible, not just Reike.

Get your Freeindex entry to stand out more by recommending it to others, and get them to register. I did a campaign on LinkedIn and Twitter earlier this week and will now have a super highlighted listing until May 2012.

Hope this helps you!

Kind Regards - Gordon

Hi Gordon 

Thanks for the advice I have expanded my interests so now gone from 24th out of 300 to 2nd out of 300 so thankyou for that. I have also put my link on facebook and twitter for people to join so hopefully that should go well. 

I think the issue with a lot of small businesses is that there is so much resource now on the internet you feel you need to join everything but not sure how to do it well, so I do appreciate the feedback that you have givn me and taken the time to do it.

I think (and this is only my perspective of your question) NRG is like a 'play on words' NRG = Energy, healing could mean anything but if it is to do with saving money some people might be interested and the person reading the title misreads your play on words to actually mean Energy as in Energy saving devices then they are clicking through to see that the NRG your referring to is Chi energy and not gas or electric..lol

If that is your business name I think you could just use a 'trading as' name (on freeindex) or just have a different title but include your business name elsewhere. I don't think you have to but it does reveal a sense of honestly that a business share certain info.

I don't think your doing anything wrong, so just take it to the next step, put yourself in the shoes of the average person your reaching out to.

Just a few ideas, It's my intention for this to be honest feedback and not critical in any way. I like your site, and your services.

*VERY IMPORTANT PS, please please please check that your business is legal to have the logo on your site with the 'healing hands' with light going through them, a friend of mine was sued by a company (Corbis) that owned the rights to an image VERY similar to your healing hands, it went to court for just under (pennies) one thousand pound... Charges including costs.

(Just for info) they got it from a site 'like' photobucket
