April 20th, 2010 | Published in Google Grants
This month's resource round-up has a technology theme and includes a list of top AdWords tips from a digital communication firm, details on creating your org’s own Search Story, a new techie friend for your org’s Facebook account and a website development course, all to keep you on the cutting edge of technology in the non-profit space.
AdWords Top 8
A digital communication firm compiled the top eight things they think non-profits should know about AdWords, including their perspective on Google Grants, landing page optimization and understanding your audience.
Your org’s search story
You can now create your org’s own Search Story, like the one you might have seen from Google during the Super Bowl. Once you’ve created it, you can post it to your YouTube for Nonprofits channel or your website to engage your constituency and drive awareness for your cause. Here’s an example of our story here in Google Grants. And while you’re hanging out on YouTube, check out the winners of the 4th Annual DoGooder Nonprofit Video Awards.
