PHOENIX, Ariz. – August 3, 2011 – Helping people plan their present and future decisions is a tough task to most people, but Mark Bregman specializes in pressure situations every day. Being an attorney requires a current web presence to attract new clientele and show the individual/firm is informed of the economy.

After years of working with partners, Mr. Bregman decided to branch out on his own with a practice under his name. This required a new logo and identity which Fasturtle® was able to provide.

The white design represents some of the Fasturtle® catch phrases that you would hear around our office quite often, while the other design represents our attempt to take over the country and become the one and only, Turtle Nation. You might be thinking that’s quite a lofty goal, and our answer to that would be: You bet it is! We want to grow, share our products and prove to the world that Fasturtle® is here to stay!

Fasturtle® hires two new team members!

We are excited to announce the expansion of our Fasturtle® team! After several, should we say “terrible,” interviews for our design internship, we came across one diamond in the rough, Brian Skeet. We have elected to take him under our shell to teach him everything we can about design and the internet marketing business while allowing him the opportunity to fine tune his creativity and programming skills.

In addition to our intern, we have hired a sales supper star, Christine Ostrander. She is sure to rise to the top with her go getter attitude and “won’t take no for an answer” ways. Eric Olsen has personally elected to move forward with extensive training giving her the intricate details of Fasturtle®, ensuring she provides our clients with the legendary customer service we are aiming for.

One final note for those of you out there drudging through the interview process, to avoid a “terrible” interview please, please, please go prepared, know a little about the company, and as if should even need to be said, Dress to Impress, first impressions count for 80% of the process.

Welcome aboard Christine and Brian, we wish you success and good fortune.

10 Social Media Tips and Tactics to engage your audience

1. Twitter followers earned are much sweeter than Twitter followers bought. Anyone can go out and buy a click, but engaging in an actual conversation is much more fulfilling and leads to a loyal following. Buying your following could lead to the dreaded un-follow when they find out your content and tweets are not up to their standards.

2. Write regularly and consistently, people return to your site because your information is fresh, new and exciting.

3. If your readers took the time to read the article you spent so much time writing, they may want to share it as well, make it easy, and always include the Tweet and Facebook Like buttons on your work.

4. Write catchy headlines that grab people’s attention quickly. Make sure they are keyword rich for search engines.

5. Provide subscription buttons such as: Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn and Google + so readers can easily follow you and your work.

6. When tweeting your 140 character message, include # tags to deliver it to the group of individuals you want to see the information. Example #leadership or #seo

7. As your following continues to grow on the different social media outlets, be sure to highlight this feat on your company blog, or monthly newsletter. People like being recognized for their efforts and if you show your appreciation to them, you are more likely to continue growing.

8. Run polls using the Facebook Question Feature. Engage and involve your audience for optimal feedback

9. Create a contest or competition on Facebook or Twitter for your followers.

10. Respond, Respond, Respond!! Always make an effort to reply to mentions on twitter or comments posted by fans on Facebook. Show you are engaged and appreciate that they are taking the time read what you have to say.

NEW WEBSITE POISED TO CHANGE THE FACE OF BUSINESS COMMUNICATION

PHOENIX, Ariz. – April 26, 2011 – Bringing community together is the idea behind one company’s new website, www.JustGoPhoenix.com. Though it seems our world cannot possibly get any closer than it already is; the online community has yet to tap into the true heartbeat of the business community in a way that speaks directly from an industry standpoint. In the age of self-promotion, blogs and press releases are the most affordable and easiest way to get substantial information to the masses. According to Eric Olsen, CEO of Fasturtle®, there are two problems with this. “One, press releases are at the mercy of editors. Two, blogs are only available if you know what site they are connected to or if you are looking for a specific topic.”

In response to this, the Arizona based company, Fasturtle®, created a website to eliminate these problems. Specific to B2B or B2C, JustGoPhoenix.com is the city’s way of finding out what is going on in targeted industries. “I am excited to be a part of something which exemplifies freedom of speech that will create a way for companies to publish information unedited by outside parties,” says Olsen. The site is also designed as a resource for people that might be relocating who wouldn’t otherwise know the industry trends of a new city. By referring to the site, they can pool information about a specific industry instead of having to search for each individual company.

In addition, job listings are featured to counteract the struggle and cost of finding qualified employees. In his own search for valuable employees, Olsen found that his choices for affordable listings were slim and wanted to provide an alternative to the big employment sites and niche job listing sites.

Currently, Phoenix is the test market for the site, with plans to expand to the top 25 cities in the United States. Each city will have a minimum of 30 blogs ranging in topics anywhere from Automotive to Fashion to Medicine. With enthusiasm from the Scottsdale Chamber of Commerce and positive feedback from companies that are currently posting, Fasturtle® plans to promote JustGoPhoenix.com as a rich new source of business information within our communities with the theme of “Your City, Your Business, Your Voice.”

How the new Google™ Algorithm changes can affect your rankings.

Recently Google™ launched an algorithm change targeted primarily at websites that copy content or provide little value for searchers. Weaker websites will see their rankings fall drastically while those with original content and information should start seeing better rankings. This goes to show that web technology and search engine ranking is an ever changing market with the stakes at an all-time high in the Google™ placement game. The top spots on the Google™ search page typically attract 20% to 30% of a page’s clicks while spots 2-4 generate 5% of pages clicks. Small businesses should keep their website content fresh, relevant and of high-quality by including such information as research, in-depth reports and thoughtful analysis. Failure to stay current and maintain your website could have drastic consequences for example, a slow in potential business or a complete overall drop in revenues. Fasturtle® aims to protect our small business customers and provide them with creative and innovative original content when building websites or updating current ones. Rest assured we will never copy content from other pages just to avoid a little hard work.
