If you’ve ever watched horse racing, you’ve probably noticed that the horses wear blinders on their bridles, so they don’t get distracted by what’s next to or behind them. The small shields around their eyes help keep them focused and calm without distractions, resulting in better overall performance.

In comparison, our daily distractions come in many forms. We may be distracted by our past failures. Or perhaps we are distracted by our environment or those around us. It is hard to eliminate the distractions from your life completely.

Here’s the way I see it: If you’re having a hard time staying focused, it may be time to put on your blinders, so you can better focus on your goals. And remember, we’d love to help if you need assistance with your print marketing goals!

Here are a few suggestions to maintain your search engine optimization (SEO) site ranking and keep your customers happy and engaged.

Many businesses face a dilemma when it comes to cleaning up old products on their website. On the one hand, the search demand for products might still exist. If you delete a product page, you will eliminate the organic rankings that that product page had generated for your site. This could result in your overall site being ranked lower. On the other hand, finding old product pages may frustrate users and create a negative user experience.

Instead of just deleting products off of your website, you may consider other options.

For example, you can remove the “Add to Cart” button and clearly post “Item Unavailable,” so visitors will understand they cannot purchase it. The page will not be removed from rankings, but your customers will immediately know that they cannot buy that item. You may also consider providing a “Related Products” link that shows similar available products.

If you’d like help promoting your product line in print, we offer many great products to boost sales, including product catalogs, flyers, direct mail, or individual sell sheets. Visit us online today!
