By Robert Lockard

Welcome back to the eHarbor blog! Make yourself at home. We’ve been on hiatus for a while, doing what we do best – designing websites and getting them ranked high on search engines. But now we’re back on our blog and we’ve got some great things to share.

So why should you pay attention to eHarbor or its blog? For starters, ecommerce, which eHarbor specializes in, is growing rapidly into a dominant form of doing business. To succeed in a difficult economy, you have to be creative and use as many tools as possible. I’ll go into more detail about that in a future blog entry. eHarbor is important to you if you’re a business owner because it can help you jump into this expanding online market quickly and easily.

You don’t have to be an expert at HTML, Dreamweaver or any other Web-design program to have a website that consistently gets ranked on the first page of search engines like Google, MSN and Yahoo. eHarbor builds customized websites and adds content to them for search engine optimization, which means your site gets noticed by top search engines. It wouldn’t matter if you had a well-designed site if it never got any visitors. SEO is a key ingredient to success on the Web.

Here are a few more facts about eHarbor: It is headquartered in Orem, Utah and specializes in Web services for real-estate agents, as well as individuals and organizations in other industries. The company was formed in 1996 as Internet Promotion Services, Inc. and was renamed eHarbor, Inc. in 2002. eHarbor now has five divisions and websites: Submit Solution, Real Estate Promoter, Real Estate Investor, Direct Home Find, and Magellan Commerce.

In the eHarbor blog, we hope to continue sharing insights into the ecommerce market and other important topics related to it. Come back soon for more fun and interesting ideas.
