Village Ads Expands Team

Online, February 23, 2011 (Newswire.com) - Village Ads hires local Azusa Pacific University graduate Sammi Sheppard to join its Internet marketing and SEO team. Sheppard will use her journalism degree in crafting product descriptions for Village Ads clients that will increase the business' visibility online, as well as creating blog posts that keep people in the know.

Sheppard, who graduated in 2010, has a strong background in writing and has had her articles published on the Azusa Pacific Athletics website, as well as in the university's publications, Collide magazine and Clause newspaper. In her spare time, she manages and writes for her own website, http://www.thecompletekeep.com, dedicated to helping young soccer goalkeepers, something she is passionate about.

Another passion Sheppard has is research. As a journalist, it is her job to ask the right questions and dig up answers to those questions with her readers in mind. When it comes to writing a story, research is a key component that Sheppard enjoys almost as much as the actual writing part since she likes learning about new things. She takes pride in looking for all the information her readers need and want to know, a skill that will help her with Village Ads.

In a world that is constantly online, Sheppard knows people want information as fast as possible and don't have time to look through multiple websites-they want all the research done for them. And why shouldn't they? People are busy; they shouldn't have to wait.

Since people tend to only look at the first couple options listed in a search engine, like Google or Yahoo, it is the goal of Village Ads to make their clients at the top of that list. That way they are more likely to be seen by the public, and therefore make more money through their business. With Sheppard's writing abilities, and the search engine optimization techniques Village Ads offers, that can happen.
