Anti-virus software links are available on our partners page.Your computer should always have some type of anti-virus software running to keep your computer clean. We recommend Eset NOD32 for virus protection but Kapersky is fine too. If you are a Comcast Internet customer, you can get anti-software for free.

Greetings!
I appreciate some of you coming out to the SCORE Social Media workshop last month. I had a great time and SCORE had a record turn out. We posted some more of our workshops in the events section of this newsletter.
Technology is like a black hole, the more you learn, the more there is to learn. My husband just got a new droid phone. He's tried to show me new apps, etc. I do not want to know anymore!
It's certainly hard to know everything. Most times if I don't know, I reach out to others. If my clients ask a question I don't know, I find someone who can help them. Networking, either online or offline, is still the key to keeping your business running smoothly. It really does pay to know people!
Thank you for your customer support! - Tammy

Using Links on Your Website
Does your website have a links page? If not, consider getting one. You can call it Partners, Vendors, Helpful Links, etc. Make that page useful to your website by linking to friends or colleague's website and ask them to link back to you. What will that do? Increase your website traffic for one. By having others link to you, you increase your chances of someone finding your website.  If you prefer to work alone, use this page to link to helpful articles or press releases. Once you have some good links going away from your website, search engines pick that up as being a resource for others and you get better rankings. Affiliate links can help you generate some revenue or increase your rankings. Either way, a link page is a great way to increase website traffic or search engine rankings. If you are not sure, ask us. We can help you come up with page content or links.

Having trouble getting online?
* Reboot, see if if comes back online. * Laptop, make sure you didn't turn off your wireless switch (usually on the side or in the front) * If that doesn't work, unplug the power to your router for 20 seconds, then plug it back in. * Check the computer, and give it a minute to get back online * If that fails, unplug the modem from the wall and plug it back in.
Facebook Applications
Do you like Farmville, Mafia Wars and Cafe World on Facebook? These applications and many more can contain viruses or cause your computer to get a virus. These applications are easily blocked with Facebook. If you do get a virus, Web Tech Services can help. 80% of the computers that come in for repair have some type of virus or adware.

| New Social Media Tips
I can't believe the results our clients are getting with their social media campaigns! Many have seen a significant increase in their website traffic. Business owners who do not have the resources (or interest) to write their own content prefer to outsource. Web Tech Services posts articles and comments to their FaceBook, Twitter, and YouTube at least once a week. We are really enjoying the opportunity to help our clients with their accounts.
More website traffic means more customers! Check out some of these stats:
Professional Speaker - 13 unique visitors a month to 37 Medical Group - 250 unique visitors per month to 700 Hunting Group - 300 visitors per month to 1,500
We wish that Web Tech Services can take all the credit but it's social media. It really works!
For a minimal monthly fee, Web Tech Services can maintain your social media for you. Contact Ashley or Tammy for more information.

Billing Update
Please have a little patience with our new Freshbooks billing system. We are still working out bugs and organizing our clients.
If you feel you were billed improperly, contact me and let me know. I run an honest company and mistakes do happen, especially with a new system such as this. Thank you for your understanding
- Tammy
