There are 3,753,257,692 people online right now. And yet you made your way here and are reading this very page. How amazing is that!?

 

That’s what excites me, what motivates me. It’s the reason I created TheSocialGhost over a decade ago.

 

Hi, I’m Lori Osterberg, founder of TheSocialGhost. Here’s what I know for sure.

 

There are two types of websites on the Internet today:

 

1. Sites that cost money
2. and sites that make money

 

Unfortunately, most business owners fall in to the category of creating a website and spending money trying to make it successful, without ever really learning the secrets of creating a successful online presence.

 

Over the last twenty years, we have watched websites go from being optional to being a required business asset. We’ve watched the concept of “being online” move from having a small five page website, to having hundreds if not thousands of pages of content split between sites, blogs, and social media accounts like Twitter and Facebook.

 

And we know that many business owners and independent consultants today are more aware of this than ever before. So they start a business, get a little help setting up a blog and a Facebook account and finding a few friends … they spend hundreds or even thousands of dollars creating a web presence. Then they begin questioning “Now what?”

 

Here at TheSocialGhost.com, we’re providing you with answers.

 

Did you know one in four sites being produced today is on the WordPress platform? Yes, there is a good reason for that. It’s all about ease of use. It’s all about power. And it’s all 

about making it as easy as possible to succeed with every move you make online. Why reinvent the wheel? Why make things difficult when the basic platform is already so easy?

 

The hard part comes in making it all work once the system is in place. You still have to bring in visitors. You still have to drive traffic. You still have to attract friends and followers. You still have to motivate readers to take action.

 

That’s the difficult part. If it was easy, anyone could set up a blog and a Facebook account and be an instant millionaire.

 

When it comes to being successful online, you need three things.

 

1. You need to have a dynamic web presence that is professional, set up in the correct manner, and is being utilized in a way to attract your potential customers.

2. You need to understand where your clients come from and how best to attract them. If you want to grow your traffic through Google searches, you have to know how to be there when they search.

3. You need to provide content. In today’s world, content is king (you’ve heard that, right?) People hate being sold to, but they love to buy. They love investigating, discovering, finding and sharing. And they do that through the use of content.

 

And that’s where most businesses fail.

And it’s also the part we’ve excelled at for the past 20 years.

 

I’ve been studying online marketing since we started our very first website back in 1993. I’ve read, attended classes, studied under some of the best marketers on the planet, and tried just about everything that exists online.

 

And guess what? Content rules! Yep, if you were to have started blogging years ago, filling your site with high-quality, well written, SEO page friendly content, and done so on a regular basis, I know your site would rank well in every search term you tried for. (I know this because it’s what I’ve done for myself and my clients for years. It works.)

 

It sounds easy, but it’s not. Not everyone can write high-quality articles. Not everyone is personable enough to create content that motivates your readers and makes them want more. That takes skill most people don’t have, including writers. (I know this too because I’ve hired a lot of writers. I’ve also had to let a lot of them go …)

We’ve been writing content for businesses
for over a decade, and we believe
it’s still the only way!

Anybody can write. We’re taught writing from elementary school on. But not everyone can write effectively for the online world. We know how to attract customers AND attract Google. We write quickly and efficiently to make sure your site is doing what it’s supposed to do … bring in customers.
