You may have asked yourself the above questions before and have always intended to do something about it but have never got round to it. Does this sound like you?
Did you know that thousands of domains are registered every single day, and unless you currently own your own domain name, somebody else will buy it and use it in a way that may not agree with you. If you do own your own domain name and have not yet got a website on it, then there’s a strong danger that somebody else could claim your domain.
The quickest way to get yourself a website today is via an Online CV. Whether you have a business or work for a living, you NEED to get your own domain name in your own name and have a website, ideally your CV on that domain.
Furthermore, once you have your own domain, you can also get your professional email address as opposed to a hotmail or Gmail account.
Times have changed. Today, Online CVs are an absolute must regardless of whether you’re a business owner or employee.
As a business owner, the more information you have online, the more searchable you and your products and services become ultimately resulting in more business for you. As an employee, showcasing your skills and achievements online will increase your reach exponentially which could help you get headhunted into roles that you are more suited to, resulting in quicker career progression.
Having a searchable Online CV allows you to become the Key Person of Influence in your niche or market. Key People of Influence always get the best jobs, the best contracts and the best remuneration packages because they are perceived to be the best people for the job.
Let’s face it; it’s a tough market out there. And to get recognised today, you need to do something that your competitors are not doing. Currently less than 1% of people have an Online CV. However, this number is set to grow as people begin to understand the power of the internet.

Let’s face it, it’s a tough job market out there and it’s destined to get worse. Whether you’re looking for a career move or not, now’s the right time for you to differentiate yourself from your competitors. 10 years ago, the traditional CV posted or faxed to an employer worked. 5 years ago, it was more the norm to email your CV to an employer or a Recruitment Agent.
Today, as hundreds are losing their jobs daily, you need to be a bit more creative.
Today, you are more likely to be headhunted especially if you’re a top achiever, or hoping to be a top achiever.
But wait a minute………..
How do you get headhunted if nobody knows who you are?
………..and how do you get people to know you?
Gone are the days when you would email your CV to hundreds of Recruitment Agents hoping and praying that one might take a liking to your CV and send it off to a willing employer.
Today, you need to build yourself a positive presence on the Internet. Up to 90% of employers do Google searches on candidates prior to pulling them in for interview. If the employer doesn’t like what they see, you wont get the interview – it’s as simple as that.
Why don’t you do a quick Google search on yourself today to check to see what information there is about you. Having nothing on Google is sometimes as bad as having negative information, so it pays to have a good positive online presence.
The more positive information, you have about yourself on Google, the more someone will want to do business or work with you…..and I’m not talking about your LinkedIn or Facebook profiles.
With total Internet users topping 2 billion, if you want to stay in a job, find a better job, or even that elusive contract you need to be present and searchable online. As I’m writing this post, there are employers searching the web looking for candidates to fill their vacancies. And if you don’t have your CV online, you may as well be in a black hole.
By having a CV online, I’m not talking about being present on the hundreds of job sites. These job sites are great if your future employer is also a member. However, what good are they if the top recruiters are not searching them?
My Online CV is your own personal website and is dedicated to Employees and Business Owners and enables you to have your Search Engine Optimised CV on the Internet allowing other businesses and employers to find you for future contracts and work.
In the next few days, I’ll be publishing a series of videos explaining a bit more about this service and how you can get your CV Online quickly and for a budget suited to your pocket.
Please find above my first video of the series where I illustrate the importance of having an Online CV. The same is true regardless of whether you are a Business Owner or an Employee.
To summarise, before another business will want to do business with you or take you on as an employee, it will want to know as much as possible about you. As part of its due diligence, the company will do a Google search both on you and your company if you have one. The business is likely to accept everything Google tells them about you, good or bad!
An Online CV can help you build a great positive profile about yourself. To find more information on how to build your online presence via an Online CV, please go here today:
