Week 8

This week, since there wasn't too much to do by way of assignment in the class, I showed a lot of people at work the website I created for my project. Many people were impressed, as was I, when they first looked at it. I am happy with how it came out. It seems that the impression is, if I have a website, then I must have a very viable business. It makes the company seem more professional than if I just told someone about my business. To have them be able to look at it from one of their personal devices sure makes it seem more legitimate. Knowing this, however, may make me begin to think twice before I buy something off of someone's site. It is best to make sure it is a reputable company that I would be dealing with. Hopefully, with my website, those that see it will feel like it is a good and honest company to work with.

Week 10

I can safely say that I am in a state of confusion with regards to our assignments and what I am looking at in Google Adwords/Analytic information! This is definitely exposing me to concepts that I didn't know I didn't know and so I feel like I am learning new things. I appreciate that we have an active discussion board with people who all contribute and ask and answer questions. I will have to look at when the office hours are and try to attend (often times, I am at work) which may help my understanding a little more. I feel like I don't know my website too well either and don't feel proficient with what to do when someone contacts me on through the website. Luckily, a couple of people in my group are using Weebly as well so maybe they can provide some instruction. I have been excited to learn about this, but I'm feeling a little overwhelmed by it as well.

Week 11

This week I watched my AdWords account with great interest. It was very fun to see the impression count grow higher and higher. I did have to lower my daily budget amount as I felt like I would run out of the dollar amount credit I was given after I spent my allotted $25. I thought I calculated it correctly, but it seemed off somehow. It has been interesting to see what keywords generate the impressions and clicks. I can see how important the stats of a website would be to business owners and the need to continually evaluate and change their approach, if necessary. In learning about the search engine optimization, I am a little confused on how I would link my page from other pages. I wasn't understanding the linking options very well. I did learn the importance of keywords along with being able to share the site through social media channels. Anything I can do to drive traffic to my site will yield benefits later.
