Promoting Your Public Website To Cemetery Visitors

Introduction

Cemify's public website feature is an excellent tool for allowing visitors to access a limited view of your cemetery records. Once you've successfully set up your public website, it's important to promote it to ensure that your residents and visitors can easily find and use it. In this article, we'll outline some effective strategies for promoting your Cemify public website, including creating QR codes for signage and adding links to your cemetery's website.

QR Codes & Signage

One of the most effective ways to promote your public website is by creating signage that prominently displays a QR code linked to the site and placing that signage at the cemetery. This will allow visitors to quickly and easily access the public website from their mobile device. You can create signage using a variety of materials, including vinyl banners, metal signs, or even simple paper flyers.

To create signage that effectively promotes your Cemify public website, consider including a clear and concise message that lets visitors know how they can benefit from using the site. For example, you might use a message like "Find burial records and important information about our cemetery online - visit our Cemify public website now!" Be sure to prominently display your cemetery logo on your signage, along with a QR code that links directly to your public website.

Adding to Your Website

Another effective way to promote your Cemify public website is by adding a link to the site on your town or company website. This will allow visitors to easily find the public website and access your cemetery records. Consider adding a prominent button or link to the public website on your homepage or "Cemetery" page. You might also consider including a brief message explaining the benefits of using the public website, such as the ability to easily locate gravesites or access important information.

To make it even easier for visitors to find the public website, consider adding the link to any newsletters or email communications you send out. This will ensure that your residents and visitors are always aware of the public website and its benefits.

By following these strategies, you can effectively promote your Cemify public website and ensure that your residents and visitors can easily find and use it. Whether you choose to create signage or add links to your website, these simple steps can help increase visibility and improve the overall experience for your visitors.
