The Results of Optimizing Your Active Rain Profile

In my previous article, I wrote about the importance of optimizing your Active Rain Profile.  This was targeted at the new members of active rain, but the more I look, there are many Rainmakers who should do the same thing in order to get optimal results.

So lets talk about the effects of this

Example 1: Phil Caufield

Phil CaulfieldDo a Google Search for Phil, another Active Rain approved trainer like myself.  He is number 1, 6, 7, and 9 on Google with a "reccommended search" at the bottom

Now, Google Search "Jumbo Loans, Burlingame, California".  His content is at position 1 thru 5, number 7 and number 11

As you can see by his profile, he has the term "Jumbo Loans" and "FHA Loans" and "Pre-Approval" - All cities except San Fran (Address Line 1 and 2) which again, proves that smaller is better

 

 

 

 

 

Example 2: Steven L SmithStephen Smith, Bellingham Washington Home Inspector

He has the terms "Home Inspector" and "Home Inspections": Located in All Cities (again, address lines 1/2) and even the ZIP CODE (did you notice that)

Talk about profile power - Notice the Local Business Results and the results for His Website -- King of the House

Debbie this is very helpful.  The only thing I don't like is the fact that I would want to know where they are located.  If there are multiple cities in the address field, then I would be on a hunt to find out where there office is.  This is just me personally.  I'd want to know how far I had to go to the office which as some point I would likely have to do.  Again, this is just me.

Debbie- thanks for taking the time to reblog this.  There are so many posts every day on AR it becomes almost impossible to keep up with them all.

Debbie...thanks so much for the reblog.  I'm not sure I ever realized how important those parts of the profile were.  Like Charita, my inclinations is to list where I am located under "address".  But, since I usually go out & meet my clients at a location convenient to them, that probably doesn't matter.
