I have not yet had an opportunity to Blog on the various tactics of "Off-Page" Search Engine Optimization or on how to interpret the sources of web traffic using Google Analytics (though it is on my long list of to-do's). In these future post I will be writing about the importance of quality inbound links as they pertain to both increasing how the Search Engines rank for your targeted keywords and also how to read the referral sources to identify what are quality sources. During a morning ritual of drinking Orange Juice and browsing web analytics across The Zeppo Network (as one would read the local paper) I noticed a referral which sent a good amount of traffic to Empowered. More importantly, the traffic sent over had a better than average bounce rate with the most pages viewed and the some of the longest times on the site. The referrals came from a site called "The Stamp of Aloha" which provide a directory of pre-qualified companies websites. Their goal is to provide information to on quality vendors looking to make secure buying decisions. I recommend you consider submitting your business for approval as a way to increase quality web referral traffic.

It is similar to a concept my partner and I had 20 years ago (before the web), called Connect Hawaii Most directory websites give minimal information about a company and neither qualify the companies in any way or the referrals that might come to the companies The more quality information contained in a directory benefits both the found company and the finder of the company Naturally this kind of service should flourish in a place that is in A State of Aloha.

Patrick Said, 4/9/2008 9:56:11 AM cool business concept, I like what these guys are doing and how they are incorporating Hawaiian culture into their business |
