Our inaugural week of the Inspiration Station is upon us and we've got a fun one for you; one that will bring you exposure and help you dominate your community.
It's that time of year when all the goblins and ghouls are searching for the perfect pumpkin in their area. Why not be the one to show them where to go!
Pumpkin Patch brought huge SEO last year at this time and are already appearing at the top of our analytical lists.
A few examples to follow:
* Pumpkin patch in (your city)
* Pumpkin patch hours (your city)
* Pumpkin patch kids (area)
* Pumpkin patch near (big city)
* Pumpkin patch (city, state)
Have fun with this one. Are there cornmaze hours you should include? What about parking or maybe adding a Google map to your post? Blogs with photos are much more likely to be read than ones without. Maybe add some scary music or a holiday themed border.

Love this comment from Loreena Yeo below so much that I wanted to bring it up in the post to make sure everyone got a chance to read it:
"Bob - When I wrote about pumpkin patch in my area, specifically highlighting one pumpkin patch. I got a call from the owner after Halloween. He called to thank me for increasing his business volume. He asked people where they heard about his pumpkin patch. They all mentioned they saw it on the internet - with photos.
When he googled Pumpkin Patch in Frisco TX, my blog turned up the top few spots.
Needless to say, we are good friends now. I buy Christmas trees from him now too.
What a way to give back to local businesses who dont promote them enough online."
Think of the possibilities and DOMINATE!!!

We hope that much of that traffic will be local in nature. If you would like to share your posts with the rest of the group, we would LOVE that. Simply leave a link to your post here in the comment section of this post.
