Why You Need an SSL Certificate on Your Website in 2019?

10/09/201811/09/2018 Bharath BhushanBlog

Let’s begin with the basics: A SSL stands for Secure Sockets Layer.

SSL is the typical implementation for establishing a secure and encrypted link between two points on the web URL that’s via the internet — let’s say that’s your computer and a web server.

It has since been updated to SSL/TLS or Secure Sockets Layer, but it is still known simply as SSL for simplicity. It is also the base for secure the HTTP or HTTPS — it is basically a website transported through hypertext transfer protocol that goes through a secure, encrypted connection.

Having an SSL ensures that the sensitive data of your website’s visitors will be transferred over a secure network.

SSL certificates are the strength of website safety, and are vital for any business with an online presence, especially in 2019. SSL certificates allow users browser to link a secure connection to your server, ensuring that the info is securely transferred between your website and the end user of the website.

To ensure safer browsing in 2018 & 2019, Google officially will flag the website that doesn’t have SSL certification by the end of 2018. And the important to note that this change will affect all websites and not just large or small e-commerce sites. So, if you’re a small local business owner, consultant, doctor, don’t fall into the trap of thinking that this change doesn’t affect you. Remember it matters.

Importance of Having an SSL for your website:

Increasing site security:
Trustworthiness and belief for your customers:
SEO rewards & Priority by Google search to rank on search
Security for all your web domains
Protect your site from Hackers
Secure Payment Gateway via SSL’s on your website.
The Importance of SSL Certificates in Your SEO Rankings.

How to write killer Instagram account Bio

HOW TO WRITE A KILLER INSTAGRAM ACCOUNT BIO

27/07/201827/07/2018 Bharath BhushanUncategorized

Writing a killer Instagram account bio might seem your professional objective or an honest attitude if it’s your personal account, but it actually requires a lot of thought to write a Killer Instagram Bio Really!

And if you’re using Instagram for your online business, it’s REALLY important as it could be the first impression to be a Killer one!

Here are the Top 5 most important parts of an Instagram account Bio which really matters:

Your name: The first step to creating Killer Instagram bios is making sure that your name is, in fact, your name! (By this, we mean the “name” field in your profile, not your Instagram username).

Ideally, your Instagram handle will be the name of your business and you can also include it in the bio if you’re worried people don’t know, but you absolutely must include *your* name.
People searching for you on Instagram will likely use your name or your company’s name, and consistency lets people know that the Instagram profile they’re viewing actually belongs to you and not an impostor.
This might seem pretty obvious, but there’s actually a bigger reason for it: your name and username are the only fields that Instagram considers in search queries when people look for your with your name!

MAKE IT SHORT with Your Skills:

A good Instagram bio accurately explains what your business is and what you do. So if you want to stand out for a particular skill, profession, hobby, or interest, you should include these details in your Instagram bio as well!

Tell People what you do:

Most people make the mistake of trying to tell people who they are. Meaning instead of saying, “Nutrition Consultant” say something like, “I help people in giving them nutrition tips to change their lifestyle” When you tell people who you are, you’re gambling on whether or not they actually know what that means. Instead, tell people what you do and how you can help them.

Emojis:

Don’t forget the funny and colorful emojis on your keypad! Adding emojis to your profile helps your bio look more artistically pleasing and helps highlight what you’re all about.

Call to Action. Be sure to have a call-to-action in your bio (i.e.) Your website URL / Whatsapp Number Link that takes them directly to have the conversation or convert them to hot leads. Whether that be your website, blog, Facebook Page, Facebook Group and so on.

TIPS ON HOW TO GROW YOUR STARTUP USING SOCIAL MEDIA

25/05/201827/07/2018 Bharath BhushanBlog

Everyone is telling you to make your brand presence on social media and grow an wide range of audience, develop customer relationships with your potential customers.

Why Focus on Social Media

Business leaders almost universally recognize that social media marketing is one of the most effective marketing tools currently available. Not only does social media marketing generate fantastic leads & results, but the strategy also costs less per conversion than traditional marketing methods. The results that other businesses have achieved with social media should be enough to grab your attention.

1. Choose the proper channels for your presence

You cannot support a presence on all social media channels right now. Later, when you are all grown up, you can. So, focus on 2-3 platforms that you know are most popular with your target audience.

Choosing those platforms is not as hard as you think:

Develop your customer persona. What this means is that you develop a complete profile of your typical customer. Single Grain has designed a great graphic with all that should be included in your persona.

2. Determine Your Goals.

As a startup, you will probably expect a lot from your social media strategy. Instead of trying to accomplish too much too soon, consider adopt some of the following goals for your company.

• Brand Awareness: as you promote your brand, post content regularly and interact with your audience, more people will become familiar with your company and brand name.

• Content Distribution: every social media strategy must have fantastic content to share with the online world. To become known for your content, you must focus on quality and presentation. Having great content gets people to share, and that sharing widens your audience.

• Lead Generation: you can focus your social media effort on creating new leads through engagement using social media profiles. These will need to become your primary lead generators that drive traffic to your website or blog.

3. Build a Community.

Rather than allowing users to passively visit and then leave your social media profiles, engage your users in ways that inspire them and incite loyalty. Social media users who have a positive experience with your brand or become aware of your products and services can become long-term brand ambassadors that spread the news of your startup to all their friends and followers.

Spend the necessary time to listen and interact with everyone on your social media platforms, and you’ll build the loyal following that will increasingly payoff in the form of new customers and sales. As you build your community, you will likely discover that developing quality followers who have a genuine interest in your business will supply better results than can campaigns that simply try to attract the greatest possible number of “likes.”

4. Stay on top of social media changes

Here are just a few recent changes that platforms have implemented in an effort to keep their populations with them.

Twitter allows media and more characters
Instagram has implemented the carousel so that more than one image can be posted at a time
Facebook now has groups
