Small Business Websites

I believe the goal of most Small Business Websites is to get interested people to call you about your specialty.

The way you do this is you get your website to rank for the keywords that people would search for if they were looking to purchase your services.

For instance if you provided carpet cleaning in Missoula Montana the keywords you want to come up for would be:

Missoula Carpet Cleaning
Carpet Cleaning Missoula
Carpet Cleaner Missoula
Missoula Carpet Cleaner
Missoula Upholstery Cleaner

A Keyword is usually a group of words that someone would type into the Google search bar on their computer.  With most small businesses it will have the locality tacked on either in front or

Keyword Search Position

With many searches you must be in the top five for your website to be of value.  It is different if you are trying to rate for Carpet Cleaning Lewiston or Carpet Cleaning Salt lake city.  In small towns it should be very easy to quickly rank for your business and city name.

Large cities like Salt lake or Denver or Dallas are a totally different story when you are trying to get your website to the top of the ratings.

With Tracfone, Net10 and Straight Talk when you call customer support you will pay for the minutes used. Call Verizon Customer support at 611 and you will not pay activity fee or minutes while talking to Verizon.


Verizon Wireless provides one of the largest and most reliable wireless networks in the nation. Verizon Wireless also offers Pay as you go Wireless services. This is a picture of the Logo that we all relate to “Can you Hear Me Now.”

Verizon Wireless

The Verizon Prepaid Basic Plan charges 25 cents per minute and no daily access fee. The Verizon Wireless Basic plan is not competitive with any of the other pay as you go plans.
Net10.com for 10 cents a minute or Tracfone.com. from 6.6 cents up to 33 cents a minute are better alternatives.

The Verizon Core Plan will cost you 99 cents per day access and calls are 10 cents per minute. Unlimited calls to Verizon Wireless cell phones are free. I utilized this program for almost a year, if your main calls tend to be to other Verizon Wireless users this is often a great deal.

The Verizon Plus Plan is $1.99 per day access and charges 5 cents per minute. This plan also includes Unlimited night and weekend minutes (starting at 9 p.m.) and Unlimited calls to other Verizon Wireless phones all day.

The Verizon Prepaid Unlimited Talk Plan offers Unlimited minutes and one-cent text messages for $3.99 per day.

Activation Fees for Verizon Prepaid.

You will pay up to a $25 activation fee when you start your Prepaid Verizon cellphone. I started mine at a Verizon store and bought a $30 card all at once. The person who activated it for me did not charge me the fee. I did spend $79.95 on the phone.
