How To Drive Traffic To Your New Website by Walter Scheu

January 17, 2008 by njango

After putting all the effort in to creating a website that looks fantastic and is packed with content, the hard work needs to continue as you seek to draw peoples attention to your website. The best site in the world is just another collection of data online if there is no visitors coming to view it. Rather than being disappointed by the lack of response to your website, you need to get proactive, seek out the people who would be interested in what your website has to offer and lure them to your piece of cyber space.

The process of attracting relevant visitors to your site begins before you even start developing the pages. The domain name is a critical part of the puzzle which should both define your site, establish it’s uniqueness and identity, and also be catchy and easy to remember. When choosing a domain name you should also consider what the words will look like in all lowercase and run together as this is how it will appear in the address bar.

Your website isn’t just for you, and it isn’t even just for your visitors, but it also needs to be designed to capture the attention of the search engines. Google, MSN, Yahoo and other search engines provide an entry point to the internet for millions of surfers, and if you want your share of those surfers finding thier way to your website you need to make a few allowances on your website with Search Engines in mind. Meta Tags are still used by some search engines to define the content of your sites, and while this is less so the more advanced search algorithms become, it’s worth taking the time to set them up properly. A good page title and Meta Description is also essential as this is the ‘human connection’ between the search engines and your surfer. After they enter a search term in a Search Engine, it is the Title and Meta Description which are usually displayed, and these should try to mirror the query as closely as possible.

The visual design and layout of a site are going to have a huge effect on the initial impression a surfer gets of your website, and probably an equally strong impression on their chances of returning. Easy to follow navigation is a must, and text should be easy to read. Pictures will slow your load time, so they should be optimized for the internet, and banners can be a good way of sharing traffic with sites that share the theme of your site.

Page Rankings can be effected by being listed in web directories such as Yahoo or the Open Directory, and these websites can also generate traffic on their own. Another form of directory which is very popular with search engines is the online article directory. This directory involves submitting an article with a link to your site, satisfying the search engines hunger for fresh content.

Regardless of the methods you choose to increase the prominence of your webpage, it’s important to remember that in the online world creating a presence isn’t something that just happens. It’s something you need to work at in order to ensure success. Creating and maintaining a flow of traffic to your website is a drawn out process and requires your continued efforts.

Web 2.0 Marketing by Walter Scheu

January 17, 2008 by njango

There seems to be a new blog or social networking site everywhere you go online these days. This is because we have entered the interactive era of the Internet - Web 2.0. Social Networking sites are providing people with an interesting and dynamic place to spend their time online. Rather than be drawn in by big corporate websites, people prefer to visit individuals blogs to hear, exchange and influence opinions of other “average Joes’s”. Today’s online world places a vital importance on original and up to date content and opens up a unique opportunity for the opinion of the individual to be heard by people from all over the world. Web 2.0 is understandably the big buzz word with Internet marketers who make their living online by observing, understanding and exploiting the popular aspects of the Internet’s usage.

The Internet has become increasingly focussed on the provision of content, and it’s important that anyone interested in the development of Web 2.0 understands that. Sites such as Wikipedia have become a vital information source for people researching online, and all this regardless of common complaints against the site such as it’s inaccuracy or incompleteness on some subjects. No longer is the Internet a place for static content, it has become a dynamic place where visitors are encouraged to share opinions and information. The visitors to websites not only visit for the content a website contains - they help provide it.

Web 2.0 has led to a direct shift in marketing strategies. Todays consumer is less likely to be driven by a catchy jingle or creative ad idea. They are looking for real information and feedback on the products they are considering buying. Press releases, blogs, forum postings and consumer reviews all form a part of the buying process and help the potential customer to form his own opinion of the worth of the product. Content from multiple sources is becoming increasingly more important than a clever creative concept.

A number of blogs will talk about developments in any particular industry, and the blogs, and the interaction between them are a perfect example of how Web 2.0 works. The blogs aim to increase product sales indirectly, by increasing the awareness of the product, and by raising the perception that a product is a need rather than a want. Consumers are becoming more likely to respond positively to the human element of a podcast than the more obvious and direct sales messages seen in traditional media such as Television and Radio. They are likely to inform themselves about a product by searching for press releases rather than rely on a salesman’s pitch. They will check other buyers views through reviews and online discussions rather than buy uninformed. Advertisers are aware of all this and are now able to target ads to the content of web sites or searches to put their ads in front of the people most likely to buy from them.

Open source led to the prominence of Web 2.0, creating an environment which is very informative and addictive for the end user, but also makes marketing an entirely different proposition. The increased demand for fresh content means that blogs, web pages and even ads need to be kept as current as possible. Marketing teams now have to establish themselves as a productive member of a community and not only provide content, but be aware of the content being provided by others in the group. Marketing in this fashion is a long term commitment and can involve resisting natural temptations to bite at bait offered up by more disruptive community members.

Making Money With Email Marketing by Walter scheu

January 17, 2008 by njango

Email started out as a way of companies to exchange information across networks and evolved through online webmails such as Hotmail to it’s current status. It is no longer just a convenient way of staying in touch with friends and family, but it also has become a critical component for business to be contacted by, and stay in touch with, their customers. Businesses have quickly recognized emails potential to open a global market to them, and with the number of people with email addresses increasing every minute the marketing potential continues to improve. As well as the marketing potential of email, businesses also have a form of communication which allows the rapid distribution of information, from meeting times to large reports or videos.

Email marketing is a remarkably cost effective way for entrepreneurs to get in touch with a large client base. The reach goes many times beyond anything that has ever been avaliable to marketers. As well as getting a message in front of a large audience, email marketing also allows campaigns to be distributed, get results and be assessed at lightning speed. The first responses can begin coming back literally seconds after a marketing campaign begins.

While the scope of the term “email marketing” is very broad, in general it covers three main areas: Opt-In Lists; newsletter marketing and bulk email. Bulk Emailing, often referred to as spamming, has attracted the most controversy out of the three, and is also the least successful per mail sent. Bulk email relies on accumulating massive mailing lists and bombarding them with hard sell emails. Individuals, ISP’s and even state regulation have tried to eliminate bulk email campaigns with mixed success.

Both Opt-In lists and newsletters are more successful because they distribute information only to those who have requested information. Both have proven to be a very effective way of promoting a businesses products online.

A marketer who has accumulated an interested mailing list should spend time ensuring that they remain interested, and most importantly satisfied. To do this they need to provide useful content, and preferably content of the type that the subscriber was seeking when they first joined the list. Ideally each subscriber will build a personal attachment to the person sending the email and look forward to each new mailing. This will be a far more successful long term strategy than bombarding a list with sales pitches until they unsubscribe. A successfully nurtured trust relationship can result in a user buying from you again and again.

To build a successful long term relationship with subscribers is not an easy task, but there are a few tips and tricks which will be beneficial. The subject line may be the only thing the reader ever reads. It needs to grab the attention and make them want to open the email and read it’s contents. The contents must provide value and quality content to the subscriber. Tips and tricks are a popular and successful way of doing this. The tone of the email needs to be friendly, but also maintain a degree of professionalism and formality. The letter should also have a clear call to action - be it to buy a product, visit a website or just think about the contents and apply them to their life.

Each newsletter will vary in content and tone depending on the intended market and what they are most likely to respond to. As with everything in marketing, this is something that you will work out yourself, most likely through trial and error. Trying things is an important part of learning what will work and what won’t.

The Pressing Need To Use Search Engine Marketing by Walter Scheu

January 17, 2008 by njango

Internet Marketing is all about getting traffic to your website, and then converting it into dollars. Without the first part there is never any chance of the second, so generating traffic is a vital part of online marketing. One of the most discussed methods of doing this is through Search Engine marketing. Search Engines play a huge and vital role in distributing traffic around the internet, and almost single handedly can make the difference between a site becoming outrageously popular, or dying a traffic free death. In recent studies it was shown that at least 80% of first time visitors to most websites are directed there through a Search Engine.

The obvious importance of Search Engines has spawned a massive demand for Search Engine Optimization and a number of firms have sprung up to cater to that demand. It is vital to new sites and established sites alike to be indexed with the big search engines.

Search Engines are the place that people begin their search for new information online. The search engines in turn gain their credibility through providing the most relevant search to the terms entered. The user is looking for the best answer to the question they have, and Search Engines are the most efficient way of finding that. Thus the search engines have to be very clever in establishing which sites are the most accurate match for the users query.

Webmasters agonize over finding the method which will put their site in the highest favor of the search engines. The answer given by almost all search engines is the same. The sites which provide the most current and meaningful information are the ones which will be listed the highest. Thus for the webmaster the first step to high search engine rankings is to provide meaningful content to surfers. Webmasters should always remember that regardless of the niche their website is designed for, the service that Search Engines provide is relevance.

Search Engine marketing needs to be taken very seriously by any webmaster who values traffic to their site(and that should be every webmaster). No webmasters work is done merely because they have finished constructing a website, no matter how wonderful the website itself is. In fact the website being built is merely the first step. Each page needs to contain relevant Meta Tags to start the search engine optimization process. Search Engines were once almost exclusively reliant on Meta Tags, but this quickly became inefficient as a means of determining the content as a page as webmasters would ’spam’ their meta tags with a huge list of keywords to hijack traffic away from more quality content sites. Search Engines have wised up to this tactic, and they now not only recognize this process as legitimate, but will actively punish those indulging in it.

Along with Meta Tags, Search Engine Spiders are also able to browse site content and establish themes between Content, Meta Tags, Meta Descriptions and even anchor text on links(both internal and external). Search Engine formulas are designed to be increasingly hard to trick, and are now provide more and more accurate results. However due to the nature of internet spiders on websites, sites that use flash and images to provide content do rely heavily on the information in their Meta Tags and Descriptions.

Alongside Meta tags, Optimization is a highly important step in Search Engine Marketing. The process describes the process of designing a website specifically with getting a high Search Engine Ranking in mind. There are numerous Search Engine Optimization organizations around, and the ideal situation would be to employ the services of the better amongst these firms. Results can differ from absolutely nothing from a poor SEO provider, to dramatic floods of traffic from a successful Search Engine Optimization campaign. A good Search Engine Optimization firm will have their finger firmly on the pulse of what is happening in the Search Engine world, as this changes very quickly, and the changes can often have dramatic repercussions for the ranking of your website. Likewise changes you make should always be run past your Optimization specialists, as even a small and seemingly insignificant change can undo months of Optimization work.

When you get Search Engine Marketing right, your site can soar to the top of the Search Engine rankings and your business can thrive. Needless to say getting it wrong can have the opposite effect, so it’s vital to make Search Engine Marketing a cornerstone of your online strategy.
