Hey there, fellow bloggers!

This was my favorite post:

http://kimberlydhouston.com/7-ways-to-improve-your-website-content-today-basics-for-small-business-owners/

I wrote it because, as a freelance writer who writes web content, blog posts, press releases, case studies, feature articles and more (but who mostly writes web content these days), I’m constantly asked how writing for the web is different than other kinds of writing.  I wrote this blog post to answer that question, and to give small businesses a basic primer on writing content for their websites in a way that will get more client inquiries, and ultimately, sales.

By the way, went over and clicked the big blue “Like” button at BestVendor for ya, @kristi-hines, but I don’t think it registered my “like” — maybe there’s something I don’t know, like a secret code or something?  ; )

I recently saw an ad here in South Africa that was based around interaction on Facebook and wrote an article on the ad and how social media influences how we operate. I also explain why it is so important to not ignore social like some marketing companies here in South Africa seem to do.
