Here is a great book to listen to on an audio cd, or read a book

Thursday, October 18th, 2007

The name in the book that I am looking into right now presently is called the tipping point. I have to say at first I wasn’t really interested in his book.  But as time goes on it has become quite fascinating. There is some great things that could be used in creating an effective Internet marketing campaign. As well as different words and combinations are words for search engine optimization. This so many different theories that can be utilized and harnessed.

Based on what I’m reading about now.  They’ve done some studies about people and nodding their heads up and down in the yes motion.  And as a result of this.  It had created a much higher rate of agreement amongst people. And if you get people’s agreement, you can certainly get the sale.

My intention is definitely to create different sketches and utilize them in the web development and web design process.  I would dare to say also that you can probably use it as part of the checkout process in your PHP web programming.

My theory is the more that you educate yourself and various different marketing techniques.  The more likely that you will succeed. I have an business coach that I have hired most recently, and she keeps shrilling into my head about testing and measuring results.  She said that she worked with the client, most recently that has been running an ad for the last three years is coursed him roughly $18,000 a month. She asked him, quite simply, have you been tested and measuring the results based on this particular spend and the answer inevitably was no.  He had not been testing and measuring the results of this marketing campaign. Needless to say that he was heartbroken when he found out after they had put a specific value in the head.  That would have customers respond to it.  They got zero responses. That’s why it’s so imperative to create some type of testing and measuring on all of your Web marketing and search engine optimization practices. It is a great free tool out there referred to as www.statcounter.com is a free service that I would suggest everybody to use Kazaa will show entry points on to the website and it also collects the searching data from Google, Yahoo, and MSN. The more you know, the better. This will help you focus on where you should spend money on way you should pull back.

Websites cost too much money not to do them right

Thursday, October 18th, 2007

Is my question to you, what is it worth to you to create a website that is actually going to get you business today and then continue to get you business tomorrow?

A website is probably the single most important investment that you can make as a business owner.  You may be asked yourself to question how could that they block out a quite simply, the more a lab or your website is the less you have to create catalogs and/or different contact methods for your clients.

The search engine optimization is done correctly will also continuously day in and day out generate you more leads off the inner. Millions and millions of people are searching each and every day through the various different search portals around the world. If the search engine optimization is done properly, you can tap into this worldwide market. Which is why Internet marketing is at an all-time high.

It’s also very important to hire the right web development company.  So when they are building this monster is e-commerce website for you, whether it’s in PHP, ASP.net, my SQL, or Java scripting that it’s put together properly and cleanly. What I mean about cleanly is very often when you go into people’s back and the programming looks.  It was done by somebody who is passionate about the Rubik’s cube. Meaning you can’t decipher if you’re coming and going with inside the backend is a nice time someone goes and they did do a little different twist on it.  The next thing you know own type backend has to be redone from beginning to end.

I will exhibit some good websites which are some of my favorites websites and I will tell why I like them.

Tuesday, October 16th, 2007

   1.)  www.iconwebsitedesign.com - the reason that I’m fond of this website is that it’s very simple and easy to read. The other thing that I like about this website is from the level of SEO the text is not only easy to read, it’s is pertinent to search engine optimization. The other thing that I like about this site is that it has an RSS feed, which brings in new copy on a daily basis.  That will be speaking about search engine optimization, and custom website design.

2.) www.preferredprint.com - the thing that I like about preferredprint.com is its easy navigation through the left side of the page. It’s very simple at the top it says products, and then is a list of all the different products on the left side of the page. The text on this site is very pertinent obvious he to full color printing and graphic design. If you notice when you go to various different websites, almost all of them have the navigation on the left side of the page, and they have a hatter which has the basic information such as contact us and frequently asked questions etc.

I was tell people never try to re-create the wheel. I don’t think it’s possible to make a wheel that is more rounds, although I do think that it’s possible to make a wheel roll better. What determines one car tire from another car tire. You know it’s funny, people don’t buy a car tire just because it’s cheap. Allow time they spend three times the amount of money just because of the unknown quality the tire and the expected safety of the.

What comes to custom website design.  It’s the same thing. People looking for quality, and as a result in a have a problem spending some money to get that quality.

I most recently bought a new router for my business Cisco Systems router to be exact. The funny thing about that is this particular router and of course you probably four or five times the amount that you could buy that same product for from an offshoot brand.  Nevertheless, I bought the Cisco Systems router anyway because it was so highly recommended by all the different business professionals. Custom websites design and the exact same thing.

I can’t tell you how many times people tell me that what they could purchase a custom website cheaper than what it is that I sell for presently right now. My answer to them is quite simple.  You get what you pay for. A purchase a website from some kid who lives at home with his mom and dad.  Generally it’s exactly what you get. I know for instance, that icon website design.com turns around the HTML 5 page website as early as seven days. Not many places can take a custom designed website from scratch.  Even if it is five page HTML and have a ready fee is seven days after you start the job. I’ve seen simple little insignificant websites take as long as four to six months. That’s why keep pushing people to icon website design.com.

The thing I like about these guys is they do everything from Web hosting, web programming, PHP programming, custom website design, and a slew of other website options that you could possibly want.

I know that there are also heavily involved with Google as well. I think presently from last I spoke to them they were probably managing somewhere in area of 30 different paper click campaigns for various different clients.

I know it’s really important to people in the making decision who to go with from Internet Mall coming to pay per click advertising to search engine optimization.

 

By all means if you have any questions, and you’d like to talk to someone to get some insiders information about some different web development companies, free to give me a shout.

What is your call to action on your website?

Monday, October 15th, 2007

Their many different things that people use for calls to action on a website.

1.) One is to pick out a specific product and create an introductory low-price. What I like about this is then you get into the argument is selling price for people. Is I tell people I come to me about price on a regular basis. I tell them that if you are looking to me to be the best price in town inevitably yield and are leaving me. The reason I know this is because it is always someone out there with a better pricen it’s inevitably impossible to be the cheapest personal entire world on everything and anything that you do. I think it’s better to sell service in his price. So reliability rather than price.

2.) Another thing to pitch potential clients on is if your product is one in a million. More times than not it’s hard to find a product that hasn’t been duplicated and/or copied by another individual. More times than not, if you have a product chance is all this someone else’s offers a very similar product to yours. For instance, I own a printing graphics company as well as a web development company. What I pitch people on is graphic design.  There are no to graphic design is another the same side distinguished myself by telling them that we have some of the best designers in the country.  I personally believe this, so it’s easy for me to tell people this. The other thing that I explained to him that all essentially printing is printing, which would therefore make a commoditized.  But graphic design on the other hand is up to the individual. What most people don’t get is that the integrity of the design is the make or break the whole entire project. It doesn’t matter how expensive the printing press that you’re about to print on is if the design stinks.  So is the finest product.

3.) Another sales tool that I use his turnaround time. I explain to people in most cases, we can have their product printed within 48 hours. The one thing that I’m sure of in the printing industry is that everybody wants their product yesterday.  So quick turnaround time is obviously a big plus.

 

Find out what it is that you can create as a call to action on your website and exploit it. You should put on everything your printed material your website.  Your e-mails. One thing I notice is that people send out thousands of e-mails throughout an organization in a day’s time. Think about it if you have 500,000 employees this selling sending out hundreds of thousands of e-mails per month per year, whatever. Create a nice tagline about what it is that your company does above your signature.  So each person receives is each time he sent out an e-mail. Remember advertising works the same way brainwashing works it works through frequency.  The more you see it the more you remember.

Is your website good?

Friday, October 12th, 2007

Is a question I asked most people can know more about to do some business together.  The first thing I say to a person do your website is good?  Generally, they respond in a way something similar to it’s okay, not bad.  This is the thing you have to understand about websites.  Websites are very similar to fashion, what was good and cool three years ago is not good and cool now.  Because you go to websites on a regular bases generally, what ends up happening is that over time.  It just really starts to as time goes on a really starts to look dated.

Most of the websites that we are building nowadays has a compilation of different components.  We are now not only doing Flash websites and we’re not doing only HTML websites. I personally believe that both of them have their limitations. A flair site by itself was as cool as it might look unfortunately the search engines don’t like it as a stand-alone and all by itself. The problem with doing just an HTML site is you don’t really have the movement that would create the interest for a person to focus in on that particular part of the page.

Well, we been doing a lot of lately is basically plot HTML and part Flash. What I mean by this is will make this mean potatoes of the site to be HTML.  And then we’ll do is we’ll create a banner in the center of the site with a call to action and will be using flash to do that.  So basically, as far as navigational purposes and for a search engine purposes this site is HTML.  But we also have the ability to create a very strong call to action with words coming into the banner and showing different images fading in and out using the flash part of the banner.

Like anything else at this only takes a little bit time to actually perfect this way of building a website. I would personally like to believe that we have actually perfected it.  All of our clients that are now getting websites with these two products smashed together.  Absolutely love it. At the level of testing and measuring what we are doing were finding that they were creating a lot more sales than they were previously just having a HTML website.

Another thing that we’re doing it at the level of databasing on the websites is we’re creating folders.  So this way, it doesn’t look like the whole website is database.  When you hit into the database section the website it’s in a folder that has it appear like it’s HTML.  This is also very good at the level of search engine optimization.  So I would like to think that we have very much so penetrated to web programming.  By marrying it with the search engine optimization part of the projects.

Internet marketing is where it’s at.  And you definitely need to have a talented graphic design/Web designer to fulfill and managed that type of a project.  The company then I’m going to showcase today is the icon website design.com. This company have work was for some number years and I’ve always been happy with the service and reliability of all of their projects that they have done for us. There website address is www.iconwebsitedesign.com the telephone number at the location is a record 954-733-8862

What is the conversion rate that your website is producing off the various different cliques that you get on a day-to-day basis?

Thursday, October 11th, 2007

Said another way is what is your company statistics day in and day out? I think that it’s very vital to find out what your conversion rate is off your website. For every 500 clicks, you get one sale generally. Or do you make itself for every 1000 clicks on your website. If you haven’t already done so you’ll going to want to install some type of stack counter on your website.

Here are two different back town is that I like to use. One of them is referred to as www.stat counter.com I’ve used this service quite a bit I like it because first off it’s free, and it also gives you a lot of great information about your website. This particular stat counter will actually give you all the different people in figure site on any given day, where they found you on the Internet.  Under whatever particular keyword they search for. It actually has an option when you click on it that says keyword activity. When you click on a keyword activity button it actually will show you all the different keywords that people found your website under on the various different search engine. This is obviously based on the organic traffic that you have coming to your website and any given day. I like this in particular because I can see what people are searching more than normal on all these different statistics. Like for the printing company, if I’m getting the a high conversion rate at the level of full color printing. And also how many people are actually searching on the full color printing and what position the website is actually organic traffic.

When I speak of organic traffic when I’m speaking about is where does your site actually show up in Google. Whenever you do a search on Google.  You’ll find out that in the upper right-hand corner it’ll tell you 1 out of 10  out of  50 million possible webpages. Anything under the top sponsored links to what is known as the organic traffic within Google’s search engines results.  The organic side of blue well, what it means is that you’re not paying per click. I tell people all the time when you finally on global under my printing company.  You could click from now until the cows come home.  It’s not come across me any additional money.

This is why I tell people all the time that search engine optimization is such an important tool for you to have with inside your website. I always stressed the people what you need to find a firm that’s going to be able to take care of all of these needs for you.  And by the way is a lot of different needs more needs and you’ll even be aware of.  You know, it’s one of those things you just don’t know what you don’t know. It’s like walking into a mechanic nowadays and tell him what you think is wrong with your car.  The fact is the average consumer has no clue what goes on underneath the hood of their car. I’m not saying it’s like it’s a bad thing, but I really don’t know much about what goes on under the Michael I know I turned the key in the car starts and I drive it is about as much as I know about clause and the engines that run them.

 If you are looking to create a new website and have any title Web presence even have to find a rental firm to work with.  They have to know all about web programming they have to know all about graphic design, and Web design.  The multimedia company that you deal with is going to have to know a lot about a lot of different things and the level of your websites, productivity and profitability. Also been have to know about search engine optimization.

The reason that search engine optimization is such an important processes, because whatever they do in the show up within the three major search engines. Trippi said is really only one major search engine which happened to be Google. The other two, which is the next biggest Yahoo and MSN only represent a very small part of marketplaces for searches go online. They are only responsible for about 15% of all additional searches online. So obviously the most important part of your search engine optimization has to be geared towards Google
