Richmond, VA, December 21, 2006 --(PR.com)-- Scott Garber, Internet Marketing Consultant with WSI (We Simplify the Internet), announces today the company’s launch of its first Richmond area non-profit website development project, http://www.elderfriendsva.org. 

The new website is part of an integrated communications plan for non-profit client, ElderFriends, a special volunteer program that provides companionship, outreach and advocacy to Richmond’s elderly. The new website will help ElderFriends communicate their mission to connect volunteer visitors with Richmond’s “shut-in” elders in an effort to relieve isolation and loneliness. 

“It has been a sincere pleasure to work with Kiersten Ware and ElderFriends,” states Scott Garber. “Helping relieve loneliness among the elderly is a worthy cause anytime of year, but it is especially meaningful during the holiday season as we remember those less fortunate than ourselves. I encourage anyone who is interested in volunteering or offering financial support to contact ElderFriends. It is a great organization with an even greater purpose.”

Focusing on businesses and organizations that specialize in e-commerce, e-learning and Internet marketing, WSI emphasizes the importance of search engine optimization (SEO) and traffic generation. Both are critical elements of a successful Internet solution that will well serve the Richmond non-profit community. 

A website’s visibility on the Internet can be the pivotal difference between a successful and targeted Web presence and being overlooked by search engines. WSI and ElderFriends could not be more pleased with the results of their efforts.
