I've never wanted to learn to maintain a website and, more importantly, I'm too cheap to pay to have a site maintained on my behalf. I have free listings on Bing/Google/Yelp/NotRot/(probably a few others I've forgotten) and it's provided general notary work over the years, however the biggest source has been personal references from prior works. Come to think of it, my Google listing has been suspended and I haven't really followed-up on my inquiry. FYI, notary work is my primary source of income and has been for the last 10+ years (eeks a decade) and have done fairly well while not paying to promote myself. (although there was that time early on when I bought pens with my name, title and phone number on them and got 0 calls) Now, if I could only turn this "gig" into something that will provide residual income so I can hang up my stamp. |
