Yoga For Your Health

What is the deal with so many yoga studios? Just the other day I saw a new yoga studio in a town nearby.

Studios are accommodating all yoga styles in even the remotest locations. Not only is competition growing geographically, it’s growing on the Internet search engines.

Do you know what that means for yoga studio owners? More competition. Yes, there must be more people doing yoga, but there are also more providers. Whether you’re a new studio or have been around awhile, you need to do some good marketing.

Marketing these days is more than getting listed in the over-priced Yellow Pages. You need some savvy online marketing.

The most-used search engine is Google; this is where most prospective yoga customers will start looking for a studio to attend. This means getting on page one of Google for any “yoga” related search term is critical.

Not only do you want to rank well for “yoga-related” search terms, but you need to balance it with your geographic search terms. Your business is geographically-based and so you must anticipate geographically-based searches.

Be methodical about your keyword research. For yoga studios you must include the yoga styles you teach, meditation if offered, and your geographical locations.

Don’t just list meta keywords; they are now next to useless. You must insert your keywords in the titles, headings, and written body of your site. You can use 1 word keywords, or long-tail keywords with 5 to7 words. Research, research, research.

Once you have your keywords in your site, it’s time for some off-site work. The Internet is a web of links - that’s how you must think. That means you need links to your site. The more the merrier. However, quality of a link is important as well.

Where to get links to your site? First of all, write great content. Write a blog and attract links. Other tricks require you to use SEO products that help you build awesome links to your website which will in short order get you to page one of Google.
