Friday Link Wrapup – Hiring a VA, Optimizing Pages, Marketing Fails
The top website and marketing links for this week.
Okay, so these first three aren’t website or marketing links, but they might be good for you anyway.
I just hired my first VA (virtual assistant), something I probably should have done a few years ago. It felt good, even though right now it’s just a 2-week trial to see how we work together, but I’ve taken the first step.
If you’re interested in having someone who can help you get more done with you working less time, here are some references I used when figuring out how and who to hire:
- Become Superhuman: How to hire a Virtual Assistant (Includes Exact Steps, Successful Templates, and More)
- Hiring Your Virtual Assistant – first of a three-part series on finding and hiring the right VA.
- Upwork (formerly Elance – Odesk) – I hired my VA here. I’ve used Upwork and Odesk a number of times in the past with good results.
From MOZ, here’s great SEO tip: optimize a page for how users are actually using the page. There’s a detailed and helpful 7-step guide to pulling this off.
