Now That You’ve Made Digg…

This is a great article by Chris Winfield, one of the top social media marketing specialists and a frequent collaborator with The Happy Guy Marketing: You’ve Made Digg - Now What?

As with so many business decisions, people tend to rush in without a long-range plan. The script is usually the same…

Hey, let’s get the latest gadget.

Cool gadget.

Now what?

I wrote about the same problem in this article about website planning, because so many companies still are rushing out to build a website without a clue what they want that website to do for them.

Chris offers a few good suggestions on what to do about a page that has benefited from a surge in popularity as the result of a home page Digg appearance, including reoptimizing the page, adding calls to action, advertising on it, or redirecting it to another page. I would add that basically you can do pretty much anything you want with the page. For example, you could simply add the page a related survey geared to building leads for your telemarketing operations. Just keep in mind what people visiting it will be expecting. If they come expecting a video on how to carve fruits for a New Year’s Eve party, don’t fill the page with wallpaper remover products.

Great comment:

a couple of suggestions regarding online web site builders. I suggest 2 in particular:

google page creator: http://pages.google.com/

and the more flexible and still free (non-profit) Official Site Builder: http://www.officialsitebuilder.com/

Hope this helps,

It is a shame David Leonhardt does not speak italian.

I recently got one of my best keywords penalized by Google! I do not know why. Thanks for the information, I will check him out!
