• Exchanging links with Industry Related Web sites is also a great way to give your site more visibility. Find Web sites in your industry that your can ask to exchange links with. The theory being if other great sites that are related to you think you're important to link to then you must have something to offer and they'll give you a better ranking.
  
• When making a post in forums or blogs be sure to include your website address.
  
• Display Your Business URL Everywhere - It may seem pretty obvious, but you'd be surprised how many business owners have a website but don't advertise the fact.
  
• Lastly, think of your website as a second office location. Any visitor should be able to get as much information from your Web site as they would if they walked in your front door. Remember your website gives your business creditability...use it to your advantage! The more your visitor know about you, the more likely they are to do business with you.
