The Power Of Google To Work For You!
Google is constantly in a
state of change. Google looks for ways every day to
improve not only their searches for users but also many tools
that can organize, educate and save time in your life and businesses.
Most people only use about 3% of Google's power.
The most important tools
that Google has for helping you with your website are the Google
Analytics, the Google
Webmaster Tools, the Google Official Blog and
the Google
Website Optimizer.
The Google
tools above are ALL FREE.
That is the best part. Use all these tools together to get your website
to the top of the search engines.
There are so many tools within these tools to really make sure your
website is up to the standards Google has set forth. Take some time to
explore these powerful ways to improve the ranking and indexing of your
website.
Google
has some great tools that you can put to work for you right on your
homepage. Here are some additional cool tools to use:
- Use Google Alerts to
check on your name, name of your business, your website name and blog
name as well as your main keywords.
- Use Google Earth to
zoom in on terrains and areas around the listings that you
have.
- Use Gmail for on
line email that you can access from any computer with an on line
connection. Great for when you sign up for newsletters and don't want
your email in box to be cluttered with junk.
- Use Picassa for
organizing your photos on your hard drive and on line. You can also
make slide shows. There is ample space. I download from my digital
camera right into Picassa which also deletes them from my camera for me
after I have them on my hard drive.
- One of my favorite Google
applications is using the on line Google Documents which
you can share with other agents in your office or the sellers. You can
even make presentations and save them as pdf files or as power point
files. This is so easy and I just love it. Since we co list short sales
in other parts of Florida sharing the file with the other agent saves
us so much time. I am also using Docs with our new closing coordinator.
I will do another post on more of the things you can do in Google
documents.You can see the editing and changes the other person is
making in live time.
- There is a great on line Calendar
that you can use to share with your team members in live time.
- Turn Google search bar into your
own calculator. Just type your math problem in the search
bar and hit your enter key. You can get answers from simple math to
very complex math problems. Perhaps you should not tell your kids about
this one!
- Download Google Notebook.
As you are searching the web to research a subject you are going to
blog about or planning a vacation you can clip and save parts of
websites, add notes right on the website clip, add links and images all
in one place. You can even choose to share your notebook.
- Add Google's BabelFish
to your blogs and websites so that your International visitors can
translate your important information into their language.
- In the Google Search bar; just
type in Weather and your area code and you will get a 4
day weather forecast.
- You can now have your own
customized Google search bar on your website. This allows
you to create your very own search engine on your website.
There are a lot of other tools you
can use like searching books, blogs, video, images and more. Soon there
will be nothing that you can not gain access to.
Another one of my
favorite Google tools is Google's 411 program and yes, it is totally
FREE! You can just call 1-800-GOOG-411 and get connected to a business.
For just fun you can change your IGoogle home page to one of Google artist's
themes.
So start exploring your
possibilities. If you want me to do a tutorial on any of these areas,
just email me your request and I will do my best to accommodate you.

Katerina, Google is certainly a powerful tool that we need to keep learning about. Thanks for all the info. I am aware of some of the things you talked about, but not all.
