My First Month in Inbound Marketing [INFOGRAPHIC]

Cheri Fasy • September 21, 2021

One month at BlinkJar Media and I am newly inspired. I think all creatives have their highs and lows, and coming into BlinkJar has definitely sparked in me a new love for design and marketing.

 

My knowledge of Inbound Marketing has increased exponentially in the short time I have been here. I am lucky to be on a team that values learning, transparency and training. I like to see the big picture of what I am putting out there as a designer and I crave knowledge. Thanks to my team, I have a greater understanding of Marketing, SEO, lead conversions, Hubspot and plenty of other marketing terms and acronyms that have been tossed around. I also have a greater need for caffeine, but luckily the fridge is always stocked with Rikki’s diet cokes.

 

Little by little I am getting to know my co-workers and the dynamic that makes up BlinkJar. I think the first clue that I was really going to love it here was our first deep dive into a game of Guess Who!? I’m definitely learning some interesting things about my team and enjoying the process of settling into my new spot.

Why Your New Website Isn’t Showing Up in Google Yet

Why Your New Website Isn’t Showing Up in Google Yet

By Rikki Broussard • October 22, 2025
Hey everyone, it’s Rikki here! I like to write blogs based on real questions from our clients. Recently, we launched two brand-new websites on fresh domains. Everything about the design, development, and launch went smoothly, but once the sites were live, both clients asked the same question: “Why can’t I find my site on Google yet? Launching a new website is exciting. After weeks (sometimes months) of planning and building, the site is finally live. Naturally, the next step is to open Google, type in one of your main keywords, and expect to see your business right at the top. But here’s the reality: search engines don’t work like flipping a light switch. It’s completely normal (although frustrating) for brand-new websites to take time before appearing in Google search results . How Google Finds and Ranks Websites When your new site goes live, Google has to: Crawl – Send its “bots” to scan and read the site. Index – Store those pages in Google’s database. Rank – Decide where your site belongs in the search results compared to competitors. Submitting a sitemap and setting up Google Search Console helps Google know your site exists. But discovery doesn’t mean instant visibility; it just means the process has started.
