Imagine someone who urgently needs to get more website visitors.

This guide contains simple, straightforward steps to get your digital foundation in place, and many of the steps are free and quick. You can improve your digital presence in as little as one day. 

Website Essentials So You Don’t Waste Your Marketing Investment

The first section of Part 1 is focused on your website, with seven important things you need to have in place.
