Traffi c Change On Route 6 Bridge In Port Allegany (Port Allegany, PA )– The Pennsyl-vania Department of Transportation is continuing work to replace a Route 6 bridge in Port Allegany, with a traffi c pattern change now in effect. Construction activity began in early April with sewer line work followed by construction of a temporary road-way and bridge around the work zone. PennDOT has opened a temporary bridge to traffi c. The existing 49-foot bridge spans Lillibridge Creek at the east end of the borough near the Gulf gas station. It was originally built in 1944 and carries an average of more than 7,600 vehicles daily. Replacing the bridge will allow

PennDOT to remove it from McKean County’s structurally defi cient list. Once the temporary bridge and road-way are open, crews will begin removal of the old bridge, along with excava-tion work. Drivers may encounter fl ag-gers in the roadway and should move through the work zone with caution. . Overall work includes removal of the old bridge, placement of a new con-crete box beam bridge, paving, utility relocation, guide rail updates, and mis-cellaneous items. The new bridge is ex-pected to open before Thanksgiving. The Dolomite Group/A.L. Blades & Sons, Inc. of Hornell, New York is the contractor for this $2.5 million job.

PennDOT reminds drivers to use cau-tion in and around all work zones, obey posted speed limits and always buckle up. Motorists can check conditions on more than 40,000 roadway miles by visiting www.511PA.com. 511PA, which is free and available 24 hours a day, provides traffi c delay warnings, weather forecasts, traffi c speed infor-mation and access to more than 770 traffi c cameras. 511PA is also available through a smartphone application for iPhone and Android devices, by calling 5-1-1, or by following regional Twitter alerts ac-cessible on the 511PA website.

“Militia Formation ”-by Bob Perry

It is abundantly clear that the secu-lar progressives in this country want to disarm the citizenry of all weapons and the push continues. This activity warrants the formation of militias throughout the country as the biggest threat to disarmament is our federal government. The Second Amendment protects the right to keep and bear arms which in-cludes the purpose of self-defense. As stated in the Bill of Rights: “A well reg-ulated Militia, being necessary for the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed.” Over time there have been numerous interpretations of this Right, but there can be no argument that a Militia has the right to arms. As argued before, a Militia would have the absolute Right to possess arms equal to any potential force. The Second Amendment was to protect against tyranny from the fed-eral government. We have seen a few attempts in past few years of limiting certain arms and/or ammunition. There was an attempt by the Obama Adminis-tration to ban the AR-15 rifl e, the most popular target rifl e in the U.S. When that did not work the Administration at-tempted to ban the .223 caliber ammu-nition for the AR-15. The ATF ( Bureau

of Alcohol, Firearms, Tobacco and Ex-plosives) was using the argument that the .223 ammunition was ‘armor pierc-ing’ but their claim fell short of the as-sertion due to the fact the .223 ammu-nition contains some lead disqualifying it from being considered ‘armor pierc-ing’. The latest attack on the States seeking equipment for protection is the Obama Administration reformed eight catego-ries of military supplies local law en-forcement can acquire from federal agencies or with federal funds. The list includes guns and ammunition of .50 caliber or higher, bayonets, armed air-craft, grenade launchers and tracked ar-mored vehicles. This all was an outcome of agitators wanting to limit the power of the local police forces using the defense that the equipment creates a sense of distrust with the police. I do encourage groups of citizens, which can include the lo-cal law enforcement personnel, to form Militias, develop training and defense plans along with acquiring military equipment that includes equipment the government is trying to limit. It is possible, after all, that under the right circumstances our federal govern-ment will prove not to be our protector. Is it doing a good job now?

The Memorial Day parade, the Me-morial service that followed in Brad-ford’s Veteran’s Square, and the Bur-ial At Sea Ceremony on the Mechanic Street Bridge produced the subject matter for this week’s photos. It was an air conditioned day in Bradford, May 25th, and Main Street was lined with people much earlier than the start-ing time for the parade. We noticed that even the staging area had settled down, long before the parade began. Every-one was waiting. And nobody seemed to mind, the weather was beautiful with temperatures in the 70°’s, a bright blue sky, and a gentle breeze constantly keeping everyone cool.As usual, we captured many in formation at the stag-ing area, the crowds along Main, and the activity in Veteran’s Square. In all, we took 108 photos and four videos of which only 15 found their way into the edition. But, everything can be found in the photo gallery associated with this issue……..Our Salute to Brad-ford Area High School Class of 2015 Graduates was sponsored by Brad-ford Vet’s Club, Timeless Treasures Gift Shop, Tops Super Market, Bot-torf Embroidery and Screen Printing, Hedlund Glass, Tasta Pizza in Bradford and Tasta Pizza Express in Limestone, The New Keystone, Worth W. Smith Co. Extreme Hardware, and Dexter’s Service & Collision who all wish the graduates well in their future endeav-ors……..We’ve noticed that a good way to help spend the same amount on gasoline, or maybe even less, as the prices go up, is to buy less of it each time we stop at the pump. For example, when prices are in the $2.40/gallon range, we buy 10 gallons each time we stop. As they rise, we buy less and less so that now, each time we stop, with the price at $2.89 per gallon, we buy only 6 gallons. “Ahhh!” You might say, “Won’t you have to stop more of-ten to keep from running out?” And the answer is, “yes, but we hate to take the time to stop, so as the ‘needle goes down, we are careful to use the car only when we have to, and only to the places we must go. This process, which, for lack of a better term, can be referred to as “Scarcity Reinforced Frugality,” probably also saves a good deal of wear and tear on our auto. It’s interesting that the same process can be applied to anything we consume. It’s simple, buy-ing less each time we buy, whether it’s snacks or food or gasoline leads, by the same process to consuming even less.

Carolyn loved to be out-doors and her hobbies included spend-ing time with family and friends, rid-ing her horse Jack, fashion and standup comedy. Carolyn had a bright, fun-loving per-sonality with a contagious smile and laugh. She was a friend to everyone she met and had a passion for helping oth-ers in need. She was loved by many and will be missed by all who knew her. She is survived by her parents, older sister Adrienne (John) Breznik Bogner

BUSINESS & PERSONAL FINANCESClean Desk, Clean Finances – 5 Steps To Streamline Your Money Management

-by Jason Alderman If your fi nancial life is confi ned to boxes, fi le cabinets and various piles of statements and receipts that only you can navigate, it might be time for a little de-cluttering. Software- and Internet-driven advance-ments (http://guides.wsj.com/personal-finance/managing-your-money/how-to-choose-and-use-fi nancial-software/) in money management not only provide pa-perless alternatives to planning and track-ing savings, spending and investments, they make fi nances easier to handle in an emergency. If you’re thinking about reset-ting your recordkeeping, here are some steps to get started. Think about fi nancial goals fi rst. Be-fore tackling the job of reorganizing your fi nancial recordkeeping, think through your current fi nancial objectives and what changes might give you better data and ef-fi ciency to achieve them. You might want a system that tracks spending, saving, budgeting and on-time debt payments. If you already have that system in place, you might want more detailed information on retirement or your child’s college fund. Consider involving your fi nancial and tax advisors in the discussion and see what suggestions they have. Create a system that makes it easy for loved ones and fi nancial professionals to help in an emergency. If something were to happen to you, could a loved one easily navigate your fi nances? When organizing, always keep your spouse, children and/or executor in mind. Consider creating an ICE fi le, short for “In Case of Emergen-cy,” and let your representatives see it in advance. On paper or on a computer docu-ment or spreadsheet, your ICE fi le should be a handy guide or index to fi nd the fol-lowing quickly: • Contact information for doctors as well as fi nancial and tax advisors • Locations for all essential estate documents including your will, your health and fi nancial powers of attorney and any letters of instruction you have written to accompany these documents • All ownership documents for real estate, autos and other major assets • Usernames and passwords for Inter-net-accessible fi nancial accounts as well as personal websites and social media (http://www.practicalmoneyskills.com/person-alfi nance/experts/practicalmoneymatters/columns_2012/0706_socialMedia.php) if such items need to eventually be updated or removed • Contact information and statement access for all savings, investment and debt accounts, particularly joint accounts that will be used to pay bills • An up-to-date list of monthly bills that need to be paid on time

• All insurance information including health, home, auto, disability and business policies Know what paper documents you need to keep or shred. Here are some general rules: • Keep: All tax-related documents for up to seven years, including annual tax returns; statements that show a gain or a sale of a security or the purchase or sale of a major asset like real estate; mortgage documents, vehicle titles and insurance policies; multiple copies of birth and death certifi cates; marriage licenses and divorce decrees; deeds and title documents. • Shred: With identity theft on the rise, it is generally better to shred fi nancial documents before they go in the garbage. After recording all transactions, immedi-ately shred the store and ATM receipts and credit card statements. After a year, shred monthly bank account statements unless you or a family member are close to quali-fying for state Medicaid benefi ts. States generally require applicants to save bank and investment statements for anywhere from three to fi ve years to qualify. Estate documents and directives gener-ally should be kept in their original paper form in a safe, accessible place with copies as advised. Other documents can be digi-tally scanned for printout as needed. Many all-in-one printers have a document-scan-ning feature and today, there are scanning apps available for smartphones as well. Finally, no matter how you revise your recordkeeping, create a backup system. If you are wedded to paper documents, con-sider keeping copies at a secure offsite location or with a trusted friend or rela-tive. If you’ve gone digital, external hard drives or cloud storage are possibilities.

Above all, protect all password informa-tion and regularly check your credit re-ports throughout the year to monitor po-tential information breaches. Bottom line: Build a fi nancial record-keeping system that not only saves you time and money but helps you reach fi nan-cial goals faster.

ON THE HEALTHY SIDEGuide To Warm

Weather Comfort And Safety

(NAPSI)—Warm weather means not just an increase in outdoor activities but emergency room visits as well. By tak-ing a few steps to prepare, you can protect yourself and your family for more fun in the sun. Dr. Jamison Satterfi eld, a pediatrician for over 25 years, advises pulling togeth-er a bag to bring on your outings to help avoid unnecessary hospital visits. Essen-tial items that should not be overlooked or underestimated include: First Aid Kit: If left untreated, cuts and scrapes can get infected. Always keep on hand a topical sterilizer—tube of Ne-osporin—for a quick cleanup. Adhesive bandages, gauze, medical tape, alcohol wipes and an ice pack may also come in handy. Check your kit regularly to replace used items and remove expired products. Sunblock: The rate of deadly melano-ma skin cancer has almost tripled in the last 35 years despite all the warnings. Dr. Satterfi eld recommends broad-spectrum sunscreens with an SPF of 30 or higher. Water-resistant sunscreens can be less ef-fective so it’s best to avoid them unless you’re going swimming. In addition, sun-screen containing insect repellent has its SPF cut by more than 30 percent. “When it comes to sunscreen, apply more and do it more often,” added Dr. Satterfi eld. Sun-screen should be applied 30 minutes prior to sun exposure and reapplied generously every two hours. Over time, sunscreens lose effective-ness, changing in color or texture. At the expiration date or yearly, sunscreen should be discarded. Also note, over-the-counter pain relief medications and antihistamines decrease the effi cacy of sunscreen. So do some prescription drugs including antibi-otics as well as many acne treatments con-taining benzoyl peroxide. Mosquito Repellent: Chances of con-tracting mosquito-borne illnesses are on the rise, especially for children and the el-derly. A study by The New England Jour-nal of Medicine found that bath oil, which some people use as a repellent, protects for less than 10 minutes. Other natural repel-lents such as eucalyptus oil, cactus juice,

AICR HealthTalk-by Karen Collins, MS, RD, CDN

American Institute for Cancer Research Q: I’m trying to break the habit of automatically cleaning my plate, but I don’t like to waste food. Is there a healthy compromise?A: The bottom line is to put less food on your plate. You may be feeding fewer people at home or need fewer calories than in the past, but still preparing the same amount for meals. Save money and prevent food waste by buying and preparing less. When eating out you can order smaller portions, skip extra courses, or even order an appetizer and a salad or soup instead of a traditional main dish. If you start with smaller portions there won’t be as much food left behind. Another strategy is to develop the habit of using your extra food for future meals. Many foods can be frozen, providing an easy option for when you don’t have time or energy to cook. Bringing lunch from home using leftovers can be a key time-saving strategy, packing things up “to go” immediately as you put away food following a meal. This works if you eat lunch at home too. You also can use food you don’t eat at one meal in a different form in another meal in the next few days. For example, you can add leftover vegetables, fruit, poultry, meat and seafood to soups, casseroles, salads or sandwiches. If you consider your question from another angle, eating more than what your body needs is actually wasting food because excess calories contribute to weight gain. The good news is that you can avoid food waste working from either end – by preparing less or by using extra food for other meals – and eat food portions that support your good health.

lemongrass oil, juniper, or even pepper-mint or vanilla, are no better. While DEET certainly works, Dr. Sat-terfi eld does not recommend it for children under age 1. He does recommend Therma-cell Mosquito Repellent products, includ-ing lanterns, handheld repellers and back-yard torches, which are designed to create a 15x15-foot “bubble” of protection that biting pests cannot penetrate. These prod-ucts use a repellent that mimics the natural insecticide found in chrysanthemums and are virtually odorless, fl ameless and port-able.

Emergency Car Kit: Keep on hand hand-wipes or sanitizer, bottles of water, and hearty snacks that can take the heat, such as dried fruits, nuts and granola bars, for a quick, protein-rich snack. Other emergency items can include a couple of fl ares, fl ashlight, hats, umbrella and blan-ket. Dr. Satterfi eld said he also keeps a Thermacell repeller on hand for roadside use and picnics. Jamison J. Satterfi eld, M.D., practices pediatric medicine in Charlotte, N.C., and has been included in the Charlotte maga-zine Top Doctor list for numerous years.

CROSSWORD SOLUTIONSUDOKU SOLUTION

Getting Screened For Viral Hepatitis May Help To Save Your Life

(NAPSI)—There’s good news for the millions of Americans at risk for a potentially fatal medical condition, vi-ral hepatitis. The simple step of medical screening can lead to lifesaving treat-ment. A Collection Of Diseases Viral hepatitis is actually a collection of very serious diseases. By defi nition, hepatitis means “liver infl ammation,” and viral hepatitis is a general name for fi ve unrelated viruses infecting the liv-er. These viruses can either be acute or chronic, with the most common being hepatitis A, B and C. When the condition is chronic and left untreated, it can lead to scarring or damage to the liver or, in some cases, liver cancer. In fact, viral hepatitis is not only the leading cause of liver can-cer but it is also the prime reason a per-son may need a liver transplant. In the United States, nearly 4.5 mil-lion people are infected with viral hep-atitis, with just over 3 million infected with hepatitis C. In addition, just over 1 million are infected with hepatitis B. Unfortunately, most people with the condition don’t know that they are in-fected; people can be infected for dec-ades without ever having symptoms or feeling sick. While viral hepatitis can be acquired in a number of different ways, and can impact or infect anyone, the most com-mon way to be infected with the hepa-titis C virus (HCV) and hepatitis B vi-rus (HBV) is through contact with the blood or bodily fl uids of an infected person. Those Most At Risk Research shows that hepatitis C dis-proportionately impacts two groups of people: those who were born between 1945 and 1965 and those who use drugs through injection (IDU). People who were born between 1945 and 1965 are fi ve times more likely to be infected with hepatitis C than other age groups. This is why the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and the United States Preventive Services Task Force recommend a one-time testing for hepatitis C for people born during that period. In addition to those in this age group,

by Chana A. Rabiner, Ph.D.

the intersection of behavioral health disorders and viral hepatitis is quite profound, with 40 to 70 percent of in-jection drug users chronically infected with HCV and up to 11 percent chroni-cally infected with HBV. Moreover, those who inject drugs currently account for 60 to 70 percent of new hepatitis infections in the United States. One reason for this is that hep-atitis C infects at a much greater rate than the other diseases that are trans-mitted through injection drug use, such as HIV. This happens because the virus can live longer outside the body than those other diseases can. In fact, it can live for days on the paraphernalia used to inject drugs, including syringes, cot-ton and cookers. Several other behavioral health dis-orders lead to increased risk for getting hepatitis. For instance, approximately 20 percent and 23 percent of people with serious mental illnesses (SMI) are infected with HCV and HBV, respec-tively, while between 14 percent and 36

percent of those who misuse/abuse al-cohol are infected with HCV. Address-ing these behavioral health disorders can also help stop the spread of viral hepatitis. Screening Can Save Lives Numerous resources exist to help you assess your risk for hepatitis. The fi rst step is to fi nd a place to get tested. The next step is to learn more about hepatitis and how to prevent infection. Doing so can be lifesaving, as there are effective treatments for hepatitis that can mitigate the effects of the dis-ease. In fact, there are new treatments for hepatitis C that can, in some cases, even cure it. Another resource is a publica-tion from the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administra-tion (SAMHSA) called “Take Action Against Hepatitis C: For People in Recovery From Mental Illness or Ad-diction”. This booklet presents basic information about hepatitis C for peo-ple with mental illness or substance use disorders. Knowing your HCV status can help to save your life. To learn more, visit www.knowmorehepatitis.org or the SAMHSA online store at http://store.samhsa.gov. Rabiner is a Senior Public Health Advisor for the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administra-tion. SAMHSA, the agency that leads public health efforts to advance the be-havioral health of the nation to reduce the impact of substance abuse and men-tal illness on America’s communities, offers a variety of resources, including information and treatment.

FAMILY FEATURES

For many families, some of the most

anticipated summertime activities happen

around the pool. But before you dive into

the fun, be sure you and your family know

the many ways to practice pool safety.

Sun safetySunburns can cause a lot more than just an embarrassing red appear -ance on the skin; they can be the source of severe pain, fever andeven dehydration. In fact, just one sunburn during childhood canincrease the risk of developing skin cancer. According to theAmerican Academy of Dermatology, multiple events of extremesunburn for individuals age 18 and younger can contribute to the development of melanoma.

The sun’s harsh rays can also affect your appearance later in life,causing premature aging and wrinkling of the skin. For babies 6months of age or younger, keep their sensitive skin out of sunlightcompletely. For all other ages, here are the do’s and don’ts forplaying in the sun:

Do dress your baby in protective clothing

� Always cover baby’s arms and legs in airy, light-colored gar-ments. Dark colors absorb heat, while lighter hues reflect it,keeping baby cooler.

� Look for shirts and swimwear made from sun-protective fabrics.These garments are especially great if your kids spend a lot of time outdoors in the summer.

� Choose a wide-brimmed hat or ball cap and sunglasses to protectyour baby’s eyes.

Don’t forget the sunscreen!

� The Food & Drug Administration (FDA) recommends that youavoid applying sunscreen on infants younger than 6 months.

� Individuals with sensitive skin should seek a hypoallergenic,chemical-free formula with zinc oxide or titanium oxide with an SPF of 15 or higher. If you use a chemical-based sunscreen,always test on a patch of skin first.

� Apply sunscreen at least every 2 hours and pay attention to theproduct’s expiration date as the active ingredients can lose theireffectiveness over time.

Water safety Once your skin is properly protected, it’s almost time to jump in. But before you do, make sure the water is clean and ready.

Do test the water daily

� Whether your pool uses traditional chlorine or is equipped with a salt chlorine generator, make testing it a top priority, especiallywhen your pool is used frequently.

� Make sure to read and follow the product label instructions closelywhen dealing with pool chemicals. Proper dosing of pool chemi -cals is important for swimmer comfort.

� Always test the water and make sure the free chlorine level neverfalls below 1 parts per million (ppm). Chlorine is the main sani -tizer of your pool (and drinking water), and the more people inyour pool, the more chlorine you may need.

Don’t assume “salt water” pools are better or easier

� What people call “salt water” pools are still chlorine pools; the salt chlorine generator just makes chlorine on-site.

� Both traditional chlorine and “salt water” pools contain chlorine.

� Some people believe pools with salt chlorine generators are main -tenance free — but this is untrue, and neglecting things can lead to pool problems.

� No matter what kind of pool you have, it needs to be tested every day.

Tips for keeping water balanced

� If your eyes are irritated and the pool water is cloudy or looksgreen — the balance is probably off.

� Here’s how to test:

� Use strips that show chlorine, alkalinity, pH and cyanuric acid levels.

� Follow instructions on the package for how to submerge the strip.

� Compare color readings on the strip to the range on the product bottle.

� Ideal water balance ranges:

Chlorine: 1–4 ppm Alkalinity: 80–120 ppmpH: 7.2–7.6 Cyanuric Acid: 20–50 ppm

Practice swim safety this summerSwimming is a lot of fun, but drowning is a real danger. In fact, the Centers for DiseaseControl and Prevention (CDC) reveals that drowning is the second most common causeof accidental deaths among kids. As an advocate for swim safety, Olympic gold medalwinner and mom, Janet Evans, offers these tips to keep kids safe this summer:

Enroll in swimming lessons. Many people lack basic swimming skills, and enrollingchildren in swimming lessons at a young age will help reduce the risk of accidents and drowning.

Don’t allow children to swim alone. Drowning is silent, and it happens quickly. Alwayshave a responsible adult watching while children are either in or out of the pool.

Keep pool areas tidy. Cleaning up pool toys after play can help lessen the temptation ofchildren to enter the pool area unsupervised.

For more information on Janet Evans, visit www.janetevans.com.

3 facts about “salt water” pools While there are plenty of optionsavailable for pool owners, there aremany opinions about pools equippedwith salt chlorine gen erators andtraditional chlorine pools. Check outthese facts to learn more, and to decidewhich best fits your family’s needs:

� In a “salt water” pool, chlorine isproduced by a salt chlorine gener -ator rather than adding chlorine to the pool directly. A “salt water”pool is still being sanitized bychlorine. So, a “salt water” pool is a chlorine pool.

� The same amount of chlorine isrequired to maintain a “salt water”pool as a traditional chlorine pool.

� “Salt water” pools require the samemaintenance functions and still mustbe checked and balanced regularly,just like a traditional chlorine pool.

Top 10 Tips For Smooth Boating Safety ( N A P S I ) —When hitting open waters this season, safety should be a top priority for passengers AND the boat itself! Be-fore setting sail, check out these 10 helpful tips to keep everyone onboard and your boat safe. 1. Use and maintain the right safety equipment required by law. Have a U.S. Coast Guard–approved life jacket for each person onboard and one approved throwable device for any boat 16 feet and longer. Keep a fi re ex-tinguisher handy for unexpected fl ames. 2. If you are

doing any water sports or out-of-boat activities, make sure some-one is in the boat watching every-one in the water and keeping an eye out for any is-sues. 3. Make sure your boat lights are in working order and always test them before the boat leaves the dock. Carry extra batteries and fl ash-lights as backup. 4. Create an emergency sup-ply kit and keep it handy. Items to in-clude: cell phone, maps, fl ares, shelf-stable snacks and a fi rst aid kit. Store in a fl oating pouch in an easily acces-sible area of the boat. 5. Keep a close eye on the weather and bring a radio. If bad weather is approaching, get off the water early to avoid possible disaster. 6. Before head-ing out, tell some-one where you are going and when you expect to re-turn. 7. Apply pro-tective sunscreen on exposed AND covered skin. Re-new it every cou-ple of hours and after going in the water. 8. Keep your boat shipshape and clean and

protect its surfac-es with products developed spe-cifi cally for boat maintenance. Use 303 Citrus Clean-er & Degreaser to safely clean vinyl, leather and plas-tic. It also offers UVA/UVB block-ers for maximum protection from the sun. For an ad-ditional layer of UV protection and to help repel wa-ter on the boat’s surface, apply 303 Quick Wax. Apply 303 Clear Vinyl Protective Cleaner to enhance visibil-ity and to safely clean and protect against yellowing and cracking of vinyl, clear vinyl, Strataglass™ and Eisenglass. 9. To restore power, maximize fuel economy, prevent ethanol damage, clean the fuel system, and for better wa-ter removal from marine engines, many boaters turn to STA-BIL 360° Marine. Used at every fi ll-up, its unique vapor tech-nology protects above and below the fuel line. 10. Remember to not pollute, as debris could affect wildlife and other boaters.

Whether you’re just starting a small business or looking to expand anexisting operation, marketing your business can seem daunting. The key to marketing success is to establish your presence, drive leads to your business and expand your audience.

Even for businesses that serve a primarily local clientele, it’s important to rememberthat today’s customers are more connected than ever before. Technology enables themto rely on mobile devices, web searches and other online tools to research businessesand make purchasing decisions.

To ensure your business is effectively operating in today’s connected local economy,YP, a leading local marketing solutions provider, offers the following advice based onexperience running thousands of marketing campaigns:

� Mobile matters. Almost everyone today owns a smartphone. Yet you would besurprised by the number of businesses that have not optimized their websites formobile devices. Not only do mobile responsive sites load faster and provide a betterexperience, they also help with your ranking in search engine results (also known as search engine optimization or SEO).

� Keep your online presence current. Think of your online presence as a businesscard you hand out to prospective customers, and take the time to ensure your digitaland mobile presence is current and cohesive across all online media. Have yourecently changed any contact information, such as phone number, email or address?Super vising this online business card takes time and effort, but the payoff comeswith customers who can easily find you and your products or services. Considersetting a calendar reminder to review all online channels for relevance and accuracyon a regular basis.

� Create valuable content. Can’t think of what to say? Customers are often drawn to tip-based content related to your industry or product, such as best practices or top 5 tips. If you aren’t the strongest writer, find someone on your team who is, or seekprofessional help outside of your organization. Rich content, especially photos andvideos, can also help engage consumers.

� Keep content fresh. Once you develop content, you need to keep it fresh. As a rule of thumb, you should update images on a quarterly basis. For blogs, update the content weekly, and host the blog on your business’ primary website to keep your audience from clicking away from your site. Post blog headlines and timelyinformation or calls to action above the fold (where they can be seen withoutscrolling) so customers can access them easily.

� Reputation and reviews matter. Establishing a loyal customer base means moni -toring your online ratings and reviews on a regular basis. A business owner whoreaches out to customers for all feedback they provide — whether positive ornegative — creates a powerful statement. Addressing or correcting any errors shows account ability for your business and can build loyalty.

� Drive traffic. Bidding on keywords is the foundation of a search engine marketing(SEM) campaign, which allows you to promote your business within onlinesearches. As you begin, opt for smaller, more targeted keywords such as yourcompany name. Stay away from generic terms that describe your business, such as “bakery” or “cafe,” as this will bring competition from other businesses of thesame general type and more expensive click costs. Instead, try the category plusgeography keywords, such as “cafe St. Louis” or “bakery Denver,” to drive localtraffic to your site.

� Mind your spelling. Another tip for your SEM campaign — when people search for your business, count on a few misspellings and typos and put those mistakes to work. Bid on misspelled words about your business to drive that traffic to yoursite. This strategy can also keep click costs lower by adding relevant words with less competition to your SEM campaign.

Small businesses often work within a limited budget. But don’t let pinched funds get in the way of smart spending. Products that boost your digital pres-ence and performance, such as those offered by YP, can help your business get found by consumers and grow your customer base.
