Hello all. I have been an active member of active rain for about 90 days. The reason I joined was to learn from others about the market and what is going on in their business. I have always believed that we can all learn from others. I then started getting a bit more active. I started blogging and my main focus was to blog about things that I found helpfull or stressfull or even educational that related to the business. Also I blogged on the mental approach and positive gifts this industry gives us all. I have enjoyed active rain a great deal.
I have used the referral tool. Since all my business is referral and I only cover MA. I thought it would be a great place to find a professional in another state so that when my clients refer me relatives in CA then I would have someone to service them. This has been a great tool and it has brought value to my practice and relationships with my clients.
Now I must be honest. I am bit lost on the SEO and other stuff. I am sure that others use active rain as a way to have a bigger presence on the web. This way clients and others find them when using google or yahoo. I know I am missing the bigger picture on this so that is why I am doing this post. Enlighten me on why you are a member of active rain and what benefits your getting from it. In the end the education will be apprecaited by me.
Bill, I am expecting some comments from you. Bill is number 1 in MA in points not that I am sure what that realy means as far as value for him. This is why I ask the question. I am ranked around 26 in MA and have only been doing this 90 or so days in an active fashion and for the reasons I listed above.
Take care and thanks for educatiing the newer guy.
