Fun Widgets

Client Spotlights
Showcasing Clients. Another way to have your website, and ultimately your firm, talked about is by showcasing your clients. Rhodes, Young, Black and Duncan set a great example of this.
Their firm has set up a regularly changing spotlight page and then an archive of previous client spotlights. Doing this is not only helpful for the client, but gets people within different social venues, talking about your firm.
When you can get your clients talking about you and your firm to their friends, then you are advertising. This form of advertising is in a way that is stronger and more effective than any traditional methods available.
Remember the next time you are reading a blog, you might take some time to offer helpful comments. Asking your clients to do the same for your blog will keep them returning to your website. Not only is it fun to do, but grants some search engine benefits as well.
