Web Site Promotion and Marketing
You have a domain, a hosted website and a company
product or service behind it. Now you need to ensure you not
only attract traffic, you need to ensure you attract the right
traffic. The right traffic is NOT casual browsers who stumble
upon your site and quickly close their browser window. The
right traffic IS those specific people that are looking for
exactly what your company supplies.
Some of this traffic can be had for free and involves a lot of hard work and time. The remainder of this targetted traffic can be bought. The balance of this is purely down to your budget, expectations and how quickly you wish to receive the right traffic to your web site.

can provide a service for you to get the best out of your
web site from simple advice to managed marketing campaigns.
What we can do for you
Search Engine
Optimization (SEO) is a way to increase
traffic by making sure you are indexed by the search
engines, and then trying to increase your
ranking. We make sure your site
is "search engine friendly" and that the
search engines can index your site. We check
that your META tags are in order and correct.
We create a list of keywords that you would
like to key in on and make sure those words/phrases are incorporated
into your site. We also try to keep your
keywords as specific as
possible. It is extremely hard to rank high for broad keywords.
We make sure the content you have on your site is quality
content and grammatically correct.

Web Directory
Listing gets your site listed
in as many web directories as possible. Web
directories are sites that list
sites by categories. We try to find some
free-to-list directories that specialize
in your industry. We will then manually add listings
to these directories as it is proven
to be the best method. (Beware automated directory
and link listing services, these can damage
your overall ranking). Getting into these
directories can also help with search
engine ranking. Pay-to-list services
such as the the Yahoo Directory is probably
the best overall directory but it's expensive
to list there.

Link Exchanges
are reciprocal relationships with other web sites.
The most valuable of these links are those
from related content sites with a high
search engine ranking themselves. The more links
you get, the more exposure you get, the more
chances that people will come to your site.
The idea behind a link exchange is you find
other sites that compliment your
site, and then contact the owner to see if they will
put a link to your site on their site.
In return, you add a link on your site to
their web site. This has been an integral
part of the internet for years and it is
a proven way to increase traffic. We can provide you with a list of suitable websites after analysing your web site or we can perform the procedures on your behalf.

Writing
Articles and Newsletters is a very good way
to bring people back to your site, though
it helps if you have a good hook. Providing a newsletter
or articles on your site that people would
be interested in reading is a good start. Another good idea
is to have a blog. Everyone else has one,
so why not you?
We can provide you with the necessary pages to easily create
on-site articles, send newsletters
to a marketing database and start an easy
to update Blog.

Cost Per
Click (CPC) Advertising is now embedded in
every proactive company's web strategy.
An account is created at companies like Google
and Yahoo and you create Ads
based on your chosen keywords. These Ads
are shown whenever somebody searches on those
keywords and are also shown on sites
who have opted to show your Ads. You only
incur a charge when a visitor clicks on the
Ad and is directed to your site.
It is an invalluable and cost effective way to get the right
targetted traffic to your web site. We can set you up an account at the main venues and provide you with training and help to get you on your way or we can manage your whole campaign; you just set the budget!

Affiliate Programs
are also known as Affiliate Marketing or Multi Level Marketing
amongst others. It is a proven way to attract targeted traffic
to your website and once setup it is very low maintenance
and you will only pay commission when your product or service
is actually paid for, the traffic itself is free. Not just
the large companies are doing it, even small companies are
now getting involved. It is similar in Link Exchanging in
that another website has a link to your own website but wit
the added benefit for them that if their visitor to your site
ends up purchasing anything than they will receive commission
on the sale as agreed by yourself. We can set you up on a
choice of these Merchant Service companies, create your banner
and text ads and help you with future updating is necessary.

Extra note:
On the flip side of Google Adwords is Google Adsense, which
is where you can place other people's Google Adwords Ads on
your site and receive revenue whenever a visitor clicks on
them. This is a way of earning extra income but only in the
right circumstances. Some clients ask us to design a site
specificaly to generate income. It does not really have a
place on a Business to Consumer site as it takes visitors
away from your site.
