    Will County Cleaning Service, Du Page County IL Cleaners, Tinley Park IL Maid Service, Orland Park IL Housecleaning, Mokena IL Janitorial Service, Cleaning Service in Frankfort IL, Homer Glen IL Office Cleaning, Palos Park IL Cleaners, Palos Hills IL Sanitation Service, Sanitary Cleaners in Hickory Hills IL, Lockport IL Floor Cleaning and Buffing, Lemont IL Janitorial Service

    Mothers Day
    Mothers Day Flowers
    Hallmark Cards

    Mom
    Dad
    Fathers Day
    Yes, they sound good!

    Here's a suggestion for some of them as well as others that you might use.
    Mother's Day in Chicago, Find Mother's Day Flowers in Chicago, Mother's Day Dinner in Chicago, Chicagoland Mother's Day Events, Celebrate Mother's Day in Chicago.

    The same could be applied for Father's Day.

    Are you going to run some kind of special because of the holiday?

    Thanks!

    I also added in "swine Flu" into my keywords since I think a lot pf people are using that term right now lol

    Does that sound like a smart thing to do??

    Yes, it's fine to put swine flu in it! You might also want to put some helpful links about the swine flu in your ad!

    Please click HERE and in particular, HERE.

    I think that most of my ads concerning that time have expired, though.

    Thanks!

    Another thing about hoobly.com, is to be sure to check the internal messaging system on it! I had a couple of inquiries about two months ago that I didn't know were there!

    Thanks!

    I think that you're going to need to post some additional ads in order to make it on the first page of a Google search. I think part of the reason that mine are so well exposed is because I'm "out there" so much.

    Yeah, too bad you don't service his area, because his pianos really need to be dusted!

    I'm going to place my Mother's Day special ad, now.

    Let's see what happens!

    Thanks!

    Thanks! I've taken somewhat of a downturn in health in the past couple of days, but hope to be on the mend soon! My arms feel like they're going to drop off and I have very little strength in my arms and hands. Painted another ceiling last week as well as tuned a piano twice in one sitting that was the worst sounding piano that I've ever heard for a customer!

    I have to direct my barbershop chorus in a performance tomorrow night as well as a performance, so it probably won't be until around 11:00 that I get on here.

    I'll let you know how soon my Mother's day hoobly ad appears. I copied and pasted my Valentine's day one and just need to change some of the words. I hope that hoobly doesn't delete it like they did my Valentine's Day ad. I had it loaded with so many things that I think they perceived it as being spam. It appeared within minutes on the first page of a Google search. We have to be kind of careful with these advertising sites, because some of them can be really picky about what's posted on them.

    We'll talk more later about the website thing. What I think that you should do is to start at least several more websites that are free to start and put various things on them that will attract what people are searching for.

    A couple of years ago, it used to be that there were over 5,000 links to websites that had my email address on them. Some of those sites no longer exist or don't allow advertising on them anymore.

    There's always new advertising websites springing up, though. We just have to search for them.

    I just closed off with a guy in Canada. We're composing a song together. So, I guess that I'll wish you a very pleasant and restful sleep also!

    God's Love and Blessings to You!

    Goodnight! :)

    I have a carpet cleaning business with about $250,000 in sales per year. We paid a lot of money in yellowpage ads for residential business the first two years, and it did not provide much fruit. We are now 99% commercial. All of our commercial work was attained by knocking on doors and having a flyer and business card ready.

    I also hope that you're well! :)

    Thanks!
