SEO

It's a source of never-ending frustration that my naturalscratch.com site does not rank higher in Google and other search engines.

It's all about scratching products that help prevent damage to furniture, etc.

When people type "scratching posts" or "cat scratch posts" into Google, my page (naturalscratch.com) should appear high in the rankings, but it doesn't.

I've had the site for many years and offer uniquely effective products but that doesn't seem to make much of a difference.

I do appear very high if people type in "natural scratching posts."  Then I'm Number One.

However, people who type in things like "cat scratch posts" or "cat scratchers" won't see my site on page one.

It's a puzzle that is very difficult to solve.

Testmonials

I always encourage people who are contemplating purchasing or have purchased a Natural Scratch scratching post or two to read the Testimonials page at naturalscratch.com.

This helps them understand the range of reactions cats have to Natural Scratch.

Some felines take to it immediately, others require considerable owner involvement and training. All eventually come to realize that it is something in the home or apartment that they can dig their claws into, with full human approval, for all their scratching needs

Never but never do I sell or promote Natural Scratch as a set-and-forget solution.

It isn’t and there is no such thing as far as I know. BUT, it does work without exception if customers follow the method presented in the training guide, consistently and with love and patience.

Winter Is Coming

We had a hot and dry summer here in Wisconsin, and I am actually looking forward to winter this year.  Already the winter constellations are visible in the morning when I go out to get the newspaper.

In fact, I hope we get at least a normal amount of snow.

Last season I only had the snowblower out two or three times.  Some of us called it the winter that wasn't.

The lack of frozen precipitation during the cold months from December through March set the stage for an unusual spring, with nothing near the normal number of showers, and summer conditions that bordered on a true drought. 

In the past several weeks, it has rained some so the grass is coming back and the trees and bushes are looking better. I can handle most weather conditions but find the lack of rain is downright depressing.
