Tom: Great video here....

Hi Roland, 

 

Your Signature is ok, but could be better.

the cahnces someone will type in Roland Woodworth "Clarksville-Fort Campbell Area Realtor" (Exit Realty Clarksville)  into Google is pretty slim.  They are more likely to type in Clarksville-Fort Real Estate or Clarksville-Fort Homes.  So your signature should be more along that line.  Google wants to see links coming to you that are relevant to where you wanto rank.

Thanks for the tip - I just updated my signature to give me better backlinks. The video was a little too fuzzy for me to see clearly, but I got the gist of it! thanks for sharing your knowledge!

Glad you liked it, the video is a little old now, the new ones are a little clearer to see!

But you're right you can get the idea, it's like trying to work with beer glasses on. :)

I saw Jason's article and linked to you here.  Thanks for posting the video, It really helped greatly!  And here you are still getting comments THREE years later!  After I change my profile, will Google recognize the "IMPROVEMENT" and even the OLD Comments?  Wow, Tom, SO easy, thanks!
