How SEO Can Boost Your Company’s Online Presence to Build More Revenue

So, you think you’ve got this small business thing down because your enterprise is thriving. However, you might gain a sense that there is more out there on which to capitalize, but are unsure of how to broach the opportunity. Well, lucky for you, the right SEO strategies can help you define and pursue an expanding market for your Traverse City business.

In today’s world, having an online presence is simply not enough. You may already maintain a website, but its presence is moot if nobody can find it every time a web user browses for your product or service. Simply put, without sending traffic to your website, anything you promote online will not be seen by your target audience, resulting in a huge waste of both time and money.

In Defense of WordPress: A Look at the Platform’s Ability to Create Web Design That Improves SEO

Having a fully-functioning website for your business is a necessity, but with so many options for web design out there, it is difficult to know where to begin. One great option is WordPress. Maybe you have heard of this as the site where your aunt hosts her sewing blog, but believe it or not, WordPress can do more than just give you a blog. In fact, it is an incredible platform that can give you a professional-looking site. Here are a few reasons why you should consider WordPress.


SEO: The Magical Letters

White Hat SEO Techniques: Quality Content That Focuses on Consumers

Like many companies out there, you may have felt discouraged with your search engine optimization efforts when you see other companies climbing the ranks while you’re left eating dust. While it is frustrating to see this, it’s a constant reminder that Google’s algorithm is constantly changing to weed out sites that use black hat and gray hat SEO techniques.

If this is your story, step back and check if you need to reevaluate your current SEO strategy. Have you been relying on black and gray hat techniques when you should have been doing white hat instead?

SEO in Traverse City: Optimizing for the Age of Mobile-First Marketing

Venture Beat predicts that, by 2019, spending on mobile advertisements will reach $195.55 billion, and that these ads will compose 70.1 % of total digital advertising costs. Optimization-related expenditures will likewise cost $80 billion by 2020. Furthermore, searches in mobile devices are currently overtaking desktop searches, while Google stated that 34% of all online purchases come from mobile devices. Google’s awareness of the rise of mobile experiences drives its aggressive “mobile-first” thinking in advertising and in developing mobile-friendly algorithms.

 Due to these online search and purchasing developments, successful search engine optimization (SEO) in Traverse City realizes the relationship between Google’s mobile-first thinking and relevant SEO approaches. In addition, mobile-first growth accentuates that optimizing for mobile devices is increasingly fundamental to SEO success.

Web Design: Better Security against SQL Injections in Traverse City

In 2015, Lloyd’s, a British insurance company, approximated that cybercrimes had cost businesses around $400 billion every year. The costs included direct damages and post-attack effects, such as operational disruptions. Some attacks came from Structured Query Language (SQL) Injections, which usually happen due to poor first-level security measures in web design.

Memorial Day Meditation - A Trip to Arlington

Not long ago I visited the Arlington Cemetery to pay my respects and to watch the Changing of the Guard Ceremony at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier. It is one of the most heart felt and somber moments I can remember in my life.

 

While walking through the cemetery I asked myself one question while overlooking all the grave markers, "How many more lives need be lost, before humanity finally realizes, God never intended for us to take One single life?"

Please take a few moments to reflect on the mental anguish each military person endures when put in harms way. Meditate on Peace here...

Mothers Day Gratitude and Love

Happy Mothers Day, Mom. I chose you because I knew you would be the best mother anyone could imagine. Thank you for all your loving guidance each day. I love you! Namaste'

Albert Einstein Consciousness

"A human being is part of the whole called by us universe, a part limited in time and space. We experience ourselves, our thoughts and feelings as something separate from the rest. A kind of optical delusion of consciousness. This delusion is a kind of prison for us, restricting us to our personal desires and to affection for a few persons nearest to us. Our task must be to free ourselves from the prison by widening our circle of compassion to embrace all living creatures and the whole of nature in its beauty. The true value of a human being is determined by the measure and the sense in which they have obtained liberation from the self. We shall require a substantially new manner of thinking if humanity is to survive."

--- (Albert Einstein, 1954)

Albert Einstein was one of the most enlightened spiritual beings to ever walk this planet. Unfortunately, most people only know the scientist (human) side of him. He knew he was not limited to the role he was playing. Marianne Williamson posted this message from him on her Facebook page this morning and I thought it was definitely worth sharing it again here.

What is Spiritual Light

Spin a Yin/Yang symbol and what do you see? The natural energy of all that is – the higher-self energy of light over darkness. If that doesn't tell you something, then you are vibrated lower than you may have thought. And in the reality of the bigger picture it's all OK; it simply means you were not aware of the power of light in your life…until now.

How Do I Stay In Spirit

The type of energy you portray to the world is based upon whether your life is in alignment with egoistic thought or inspired thinking. The difference between those two levels of energy vibration can mean the difference between living a life filled with happiness or sadness.

How Do We Live with Ego

The ego can be very clever and can manipulate in more ways than you could ever imagine possible. And that in itself is the secret to living with the ego. What is presented by the ego is always imagined and never true reality. The stories contrived by the ego will always be focused on past or future moments, but never the present moment. The ego knows that if you are living your life based upon the present moment it will lose control over you. Read more...

Know What Is Important in Life

When the Heart is open, the experiences in life are viewed differently, with a sense of deep knowing that whatever is occurring in each moment is due to a specific reason or has a unique intention.

What Does a Balanced Life Feel Like?

In the general sense of the word "balanced" one would be lead to believe that you must be completely balanced and at the higher vibration levels to be truly happy. This is a myth, as we are constantly increasing our level of energy vibration beginning the day of conception. When we arrive in this form-based world we are completely in balance with the Universe.

Can Anyone Help Me to Move Forward in Life

We each have a spirit guide and mentors to assist us in raising our energy vibration, and to watch over us when times are troublesome. However, it is necessary for us to be alert and ready to receive the assistance when it is offered.

You are never alone, even when you may feel as though the world has been tough on you. Always remember, there are lessons to be had in every life-situation and many of them come from circumstances that may seem unfair or as though you have been wronged in some way.

Create Relationships Through Faith

There's always more going on in the background of life than what you see on the surface. We all have our own personal agenda for fulfilling our purpose for being here and the roles we play to accomplish our mission are sometimes very complex.

When we choose to bring someone into our life path it would be wise to let them know what they are in for ahead of time. This simply means be yourself, not the guarded self with your best foot forward, but the actual person you are everyday. If the potential intimate relationship is going to thrive it won't help if you are holding back your true personality. Either the person will be in harmony with you or they will not, it's really that simple. Read more...

Choose to Be Happy and Grateful Daily

Everyday we are faced with making many decisions in life-situation. However, the outcome of these decisions can vary greatly based upon the alignment of our Four-Body-System.

"Every decision I make is a choice between a grievance and a miracle…I relinquish all grievances, resentments and regrets by choosing the miracle." – Derived from A Course in Miracles

 

How do you make your daily decisions, do you base them on your natural state of Being, or do you think everything through based upon using your mind first?

It's a choice!

Manifesting Teachers During Life Process

Life Process will introduce you to many different people in your lifetime. When you realize you are the one manifesting them into your awareness, then you will be ready to learn from that realization.

Expanding Our Natural Abilities

We each have unique natural abilities, which we can choose to hold captive within us, or we can expand them to the fullest by sharing these gifts with the world.

Who Creates

Everyone co-creates in every moment based upon their own unique life-situation; however, we should always remember that the creation process itself is all part of the totality of Oneness.

Therefore, what we co-create has an affect on everything else in the Universe, both form and formless. Separation is only in the mind. We are all part of the same Source Energy constantly changing to meet the current life-situation from a standpoint of Oneness.

Life Plan or Career Path

If you change career paths multiple times, it is not a sign that you are out of alignment with Original Source Agreement. It may only mean you are progressing at your own rate of awakening unique to the life-situations you chose in each current moment.

Life is a Process Guided by Faith

The main purpose for being here is the same for everyone…to discover self and merge ego with the Soul. All the other form based by-products of that discovery are nothing more than an examination to consciously illustrate your current level of energy vibration. Therefore, how you perceive life is continuously guided by higher self; whether or not you listen is based upon free-will and level of faith.

Conscious Attention on the Current Task

Goals are achieved by taking massive action on the task at hand and conscious clarity of purpose. Therefore, if you are not focused on the task (to completion) you could become lost in random thought, which is equivalent to running around in circles  and eventually arriving back at the starting point – without accomplishing anything.

Confusing Your Role with Self

What happens if you merely define yourself by the roles played in the life process? Do you believe you are less once a role is completed or are you still the same Being?

Your answers will assist you in determining whether your life is driven by ego or higher self. The answers will also help you to better understand your current level of happiness and peace. Read more...

The Power Is in Being

Most people are so wrapped up in the illusion of constant doing that they forget the power of simply Being. Read more...

Sneak Preview of Main Event

As with every story, there is background information which never appears on the surface for all to see. The stage performance may be polished, however, eventually the true version, behind the scenes is exposed.

Therefore, it is really interesting to watch the stage performance, and then, connect with the performer later in the true experience of the main event to observe who they really are.

Blowing in the Wind without a Parachute

Jumping out of an airplane without a parachute is similar to going through life without a Life Plan. You will eventually end up at your final destination; however, the end result may not be very desirable. Listen to your higher self guidance (instinct) and align with your true purpose; it will assist you in obtaining a pleasant landing. Get balanced today...

Life Plan Defined

Our Life Plan is merely the methodology used to align with the consciousness of the Universe. And this is meant to enhance love, happiness, and a peaceful experience here on Earth.

Spiritual Intervention

If you observe a friend experiencing a fearful control drama, you can help by intervening spiritually with a conscious gesture of love. Every now and then a simple hug is all that is needed to break a pattern causing someone unnecessary pain.

Does Crying Cleanse the Soul?

The Soul is pure and does not require cleansing; it is always in a state of pure love and happiness - without exception. 

The mind on the contrary is capable of producing fear, anxiety and sadness; therefore, it expands its story based upon emotional stimulation. These thoughts and emotions can be cleansed in part through crying, as it brings the person back to surrendering to higher spiritual self. Thus, it cleanses the mind of the story brought on by the emotions, which are actually there to alert you when you are out of harmony with higher self awareness. Read more...

Integrating Meditation into Daily Life

Once you awaken to the fact, "Meditation is not some-thing you do…it is the experience of Being that which you are," it will become easier for you to integrate your higher purpose into daily life. Then you will start asking better questions and life will flow with conscious clarity, as never before.

Individual purpose for Being here is easily discovered when focused intention is approached through the emotion of Love, rather than fear. Therefore, we all have the power to live a life filled with daily happiness and true meaning. What's your choice?

Staying Connected with Higher Self through Meditation

We all consist of a Four Body System and how deeply we are integrated into the various parts of that system determines how we approach our life-situation on a daily basis. If you could discover how to simply acknowledge that you do indeed have these multiple aspects of the body, without allowing them to control you, your life would be a lot happier.

Through meditation, you can consciously stay connected with the highest power of this system, the Spiritual Body. Read more...

Discover the Core Purpose of Meditation

How many times have you felt as though you were saturated with life-situation drama and simply wanted to take a break from it all? With so many influences in our life coming from outside sources it's difficult for most people to believe there is a place to go to eliminate thinking about it all.

Meditation is a time when you stop thinking about all the things you need to do and focus on just Being for a few moments. Read more...

Meditation - Connecting with God

Meditation is connecting with God (Highest Source), which includes you, me and all the rest of human creation in the Oneness of the Universe.

We are all co-creators of the Almighty Creation, called GOD, without separation. It matters not what religion we choose to follow...there is only ONE GOD and we are an intricate unlimited drop (part) of that ocean of limitless creation. Discover the inner power of self...

Letting Go to Experience Change

After you have done your part to co-create some change you would like in your life - let go and let change happen. This has also been stated, "Let go and let God."

Just allow the power of the Universe to pollinate the seed you planted, and then, simply cherish it and watch it grow.

Meditation is about Being in True Character

There's a misconception that meditation is about focused thinking on a particular subject or mind based physical element. When in reality it is an experience into the conscious awareness of which you are, a Spiritual Being having a human experience. You are pure energy; however, most people use the mind in an attempt to place some definition on that which is beyond form.

"Mediation is not some-thing you do...it the experience of Being that which you are!"

- Terry Swejkoski

When you finally recognize that meditation is beyond form, then you will begin to understand that meditation is about Being in true character, which is a Spiritual Being, period.

We are all capable of disassociating ourselves from form based objects and thought; however, few every really experience their true essence at a level of energy vibration capable of even starting to understand the eternal scope of what that really means.

Aligning with Career Intention

If you are not happy with your work, it may not be what you were intended to do. Being in harmony with your true career path means you are in alignment with your life's intended work. Perhaps, if you are struggling in today's economy, it may be time to take a second look at what you are doing to make a living.

 

When you are doing what you love to do, your work flows easily and is a career - not a job!

Emotional Well Being and Anger Management

Anger is an emotion at the bottom of the energy vibration spectrum. Due to its negative nature, it is also one of the least understood emotions. When we say, "I am angry" about some situation, what it usually really means is that we are fearful of losing control of a situation.

It only requires a few moments of your time to discover a few simple ways to eliminate anger/fear from your life. The end result will be increased emotional well being and daily happiness. Read on for more…

Meditation Focus - Guidance from Higher Self

During times of confusion or difficulty most people look to friends, relatives, coaches, therapists or some other person for guidance. This is typical because we have been taught to do this without actually realizing the consequences of this limited perspective.

However, there is an alternative place to go to solve the challenges of daily life, and the true reality is you can access it from where you are in any present moment.

If humanity is to evolve we must all learn to travel within to receive guidance and solutions that mortal man will never obtain outside of true higher self.

A Spiritual Being Who You Really Are

We are all multi-dimensional spiritual beings currently having a human experience. It's the personality (ego) that holds us back from being our true self.

Each of us is here to fulfill a particular mission based upon a remarkable master plan. Whether we believe that or not depends on the level of control we allow our personality to have over the actual mission we planned before being born.

Yes, we made agreements with Source energy (God) to come here and do our part to move this planet forward in evolution long before our actual human birth date. Get reconnected today...

The Power of Love and Forgiveness

We all signed up for this journey of human experience based upon bringing our predetermined gifts into awareness – meaning to be shared with everyone. If you have someone in your life that needs forgiveness due to past mistakes, maybe it's time for you to experience the power of love – it forgives all mistakes.

Everyone in your life is a gift to be cherished; therefore, don't waste your life holding grudges caused by egos manipulation of your higher self. Let peace be...

Enjoy Each Present Moment

You can be happy everyday of your life...if you focus on what's right in front of you. The NOW is really all you ever get...so enjoy each present moment!

Fitting Meditation into Daily Routine

Terry Swejkoski is now writing a column for Traverse City Meditation Examiner...check it out.

Most people pack so much into one day that they believe it's impossible to fit meditation time into their daily routine. The truth is the ego will fabricate whatever story it needs to in an effort to stop you from meditating.

Before you allow that to happen keep this reality in mind:

"Meditation is not some-thing you do…it is the experience of Being that which you are!"
- Terry Swejkoski

Proposal to hold a World Peace Forum "Peace in hands of everyone"

This post is for anyone interested in the World Peace Forum in the Ukraine. You can read all the details at the main website for the organization State of Planet.

This is the original invitation post:

TO ALL WHO CHERISH PEACE!

Come on!

We are beginning to develop a plan for the World Peace Forum "Peace in hands of everyone". The main purpose of the forum:"Every inhabitant can believe that life on our planet tomorrow depends on his steps today". The main difference of this forum lies in the fact that its conduct is initiated by ordinary people who are not endowed with the attributes of power. Already accept your suggestions on the plan of its holding. We invite all interested individuals and international organizations of the world to cooperate on its organization and conduct. World Peace Forum can be combined with the first constituent conference of supporters State Of Planet MotherLand. Conducting such a World Peace Forum as possible on the basis of attracting a huge number of interested people, advocates of world peace and human rights activists, Pop stars and community organizations, tourist and commercial organizations, as well as the media.

Conversations with God through Meditation

In his classic book series "Conversations with God," author Neil Donald Walsh shares his ongoing dialog with God. What most people do not realize is that we are all capable of having these same type of conversations with God or Source energy.

When meditating, outside distractions and cluttered thoughts are removed, which allows the words of Source energy to flow through us with conscious clarity. The most amazing reality is the fact that the more a person meditates, the clearer the messages become. Meditation is also a wonderful way to gain insight into the reasons we do what we do and to view acceptance of what is as an unlimited tool of deeper understanding during this human experience.

Happiness during Plan Changes

How do you respond when you make plans to do something, and then, for some unknown reason, the plans are changed due to some outside accordance? Do you go with the flow, become alert and make the best of it? Or, do you become upset and feel victimized? The answer could be an indication of your overall happiness level in life. Ponder that for a few moments…

Solutions Manifest from Within during Meditation

Most people have a tendency to search outside themselves for solutions to life's challenges. The truth is the best solutions always manifest from within. This is especially true during meditation. In those moments of silence and peace, it's possible to increase energy vibration and gain a foothold into the realm of limitless possibilities, where all solutions are hidden.

Conscious Clarity and the Law of Attraction Meditation

Conscious Clarity can be achieved in many ways, including through meditation and purposeful attention to a specific intention.

The universal law of attraction is supercharged during meditation when you focus on something that you would like to manifest into your life. When meditating, you can actually boost your energy vibration to a level equal to the current energy level of that which you desire. When in this state of conscious clarity, the Universe receives a clear imagine of what it is that you would like to manifest. Read more...

Meditation Reduces Stress and Unnecessary Thought

When starting each day with a clean slate or at least few thoughts, the world as you know it is seen through different eyes. When life is approached with "Conscious Clarity," the smoke screen of outside influences no-longer has control of your daily life-situation. Therefore, stress is eliminated from the vocabulary.

Would purging unnecessary thoughts from your mind have a positive effect on what you could accomplish today? Read more...

The Present Moment Reflection

When you learn to meditate - you will begin to understand the power of the Present Moment. Ponder that possibility...

Meditation – A World beyond Mind

It has been stated, "The typical person has as many as 60,000 thoughts in a single day." The interesting part is most of them are recurring from the previous day and therefore unnecessary.

Here are two simple questions to ask yourself about recurring thoughts:

 

Can you rationalize why you continue to think about the same things day after day?

 

What would happen if you could actual purge those recurring thoughts from you sub-conscious mind? Read more... 

Focus on the Message

I know I've said this before, however, its worth mentioning again. We have all had academic rules pounded into us since the day we were born. The critics of literature will be the first ones to pounce on every grammar error made. My advice, forget the grammar patrol and simply write the best you can!

Focus on the message you are delivering to your audience. That way you will always write from your heart instead of your head, which will result in a better connection with readers.

Memorial Day Meditation - A Trip to Arlington

Not long ago I visited the Arlington Cemetery to pay my respects and to watch the Changing of the Guard Ceremony at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier. It is one of the most heart felt and somber moments I can remember in my life.

While walking through the cemetery I asked myself one question while overlooking all the grave markers, "How many more lives need be lost, before humanity finally realizes, God never intended for us to take One single life?"

Please take a few moments to reflect on the mental anguish each military person endures when put in harms way. Meditate on Peace here...

Response to Deepwater Horizon Oil Spill of 2010

We are now seeing the devastating consequences of drilling for oil in the Gulf. Risk management obviously failed to do its job in protecting our natural resources.

Life Plan Balance - Happiness

Balance in life has everything to do with how happy you are on the surface of life-situation. This is obvious for some people but totally foreign to others. I'd like to share a few insights with you pertaining to how you can easily gauge your level of happiness. I've learned over the years that the mind (ego) needs some form of categorized system to fully understand the complexities of life-situation. The mind has difficulty with total acceptance of "what is" and needs constant reassurance of why things are as perceived from the sensory inputs. Read more...

Life Plan Balance - Financial Freedom

The mind-set you have about your financial freedom is primarily based upon the programming you received as a child. This programming learned during your adolescence will stay with most of you throughout your lifetime, or until you decide to make a change and move into a completely different mind-set. It's never too late to learn a system that may work better for you.

If you are one of the few brought up and educated in an environment of higher financial understanding count your blessings - you are way ahead of the rest.

Life Plan Balance - Physical Health

The human body is a miraculous vessel used to house the Spiritual self, of which, you are. The misconception is the physical body will continue to function at its peak level, without required maintenance.

These labels separate us from our true higher self and will be there until you decide to take back control of your life-situation. You can do this by practicing the act of meditation. Read more...
