As Cyber Monday rapidly approaches, many online businesses have been preparing their websites for what can be, for many, the busiest single day of the year.

If your online business usually offers holiday deals, incentives or specials over the next month, schedule your social media messages before the time comes. Create variations of your messages for various times of the day so they can be seen by more people. Also, if you really want to stand out, don’t target keywords that are too broad–narrow your target by using long-tail keywords instead.

Create a reason for visitors to your site to make a purchase immediately by using call-to-actions.
