Hi everyone!

This post will be the first of many aimed at helping you drive traffic to your CityCliq webpage. We’ve designed our pages to be easily accessible by people searching online, and we want you to take full advantage of every feature available. We’ll start by talking about photos and how they can help you reach more people searching online.

In the “Photos” tab of your dashboard, you’ll see our photo uploader.

CityCliq Photo Uploader

Notice the “caption” field below the browse button. After you upload your image, enter in a descriptive caption, or title. This title will be read by search engines and help make your page more findable for people searching online. If you have a restaurant, for example, you may want to upload pictures of your signature dishes and title them something unique like, “Mario’s Has the Best Chicken Cacciatore in Cleveland!”

The same goes for other types of businesses serving a specific city or region. Whether you’re a masseuse, a house painter or a fisherman, you should make your photo captions really mean something. Try to give your site visitors as much information as possible about where you are and what you offer.

For our e-commerce businesses that aren’t as dependent upon local traffic, your image captions can feature things like item URLs, prices or descriptions. The key is to be as descriptive and relevant as possible.

We’ll keep the tips coming. Until then, try uploading some more photos and writing great captions for them. We’ll post some of the best ones here next week!
