Ok. You woke up at 3:24am with a list of a dozen things that you should do on your website.
But now that you've dropped the kids at school, responded to the most urgent of emails, dealt with a half dozen phone calls, and you're already onto your thrid cup of coffee for the day... you can't remember a single website task.
I've got you sorted. Here's are some examples of small tasks that you can copy and paste today. In fact, each of these are small support requests that I've recently carried out for someone like you!
If you're already on one of my Website Care Plans then I can pick up any of these tasks for you within your allocated hours. If not, then I'm always happy to chat about ad hoc tasks too.

Add this Article to my Website
Here is an article I recently wrote, that talks about [service]. Can you please add it to my website? I've attached it as a [Word/GoogleDoc/PDF] file.
The article should contain links through to my [service sales page URL] to hep me get more signups.
I've attached an image that you can use (I know you always ask me for an image for each post, and I never remember the pixel dimensions I'm supposed to use).
Can I leave you to sort out the metadescription, and any other SEO elements for me?
