Marketing Online (Part 6)

Search Engine Marketing (SEM) is a hot topic these days. It is entirely different from search engine optimization. SEM means running paid ads that appear along with the search results on a search site as Google. For certain businesses, SEM can be an important part of their overall marketing mix.

Online advertising can also include running ads on other Web sites. This can be effective when careful attention is paid to placing ads where the Web page content is relevant to what you are selling.

Debates have raged over email marketing, but as the dust settles, smart companies are finding that judicious use of email, sent only to people who care to receive it from them, can be effective way of reinforcing their connection with their customers and increasing sales.

Unique marketing message:-

Two of the leading complaints about buisness-to-business Web sites are,
1) people are confused by the home page
2) there is too much self-serving content.

Have you looked at your compay's Web site lately? Ask yourself this question: Does your home page give people who aren't familiar with your company a clear picture of what you have to offer them? Too often this is not the case!

If you look past your home page, does the site tell visitors what they want to know or what your business units want to say? These are typically NOT the same thing!

Your Web site is your brand's home in cyberspace. It's not about technology, it's about communication. When people visit your Web site, they should immediately recognize that it is your company. Your unique marketing message, look and voice need to be consistent across media in order to reinforce your brand, telegraph your key message and reduce your cost of customer thinking.

Creative Marketing

More of the same just doesn't work anymore. Products, services, whole business segments are becoming commoditized. In this climate, it is crucial to differentiate yourself from competitors, and compelling creative work helps to do that.

Your corporate identity should be unique, memorable and appropriate to your company and its market. Your ad needs a compelling concept, copy and graphics to grab your target audience. Your Web site has to be well structured, well designed and well written to give visitors a positive experience of your company and your brand.

Often a company's marketing strategy is developed by one firm- if they even have a strategy - then it is turned over to the creative people elsewhere for execution. With that approach the creative work often strays off track and loses that all-important strategic focus. With us, you have both chief brand strategist and creative director to keep your work on target!

Web Design / Development (Part 5)

You have to vary the font size to hightlight key pieces of information. You must be, not just general advertising, but extremely internet, savvy to accomplish all of your online advertising goals.

There are many companies that host web pages and promise to help you make web design simple as you set up new web site, and some of them are reasonable and provide you with options that will assist you in creating a decent business home page, but if you are really serious about growing the success of your business, I would suggest that you hire a professional in the field of web design. You would be amazed at the difference an expert can make in this area.

After your web page has been set up, and your web design complete, you will have to find ways to optimize your search engine position and results. There are many types of software available for this purpose, you can utilize meta tags, provide SEO content for your web sites, and many web hosting companies will bump you in the search result standing for an additional monthly fee. For greatest success, of course, some combination of any and/ or all of these would be the best idea. The bottom line: maximum exposure equals maximim results.

Some clients like to try and use free web design templates to achieve their goal of a quick website. This can get your site online quickly, but with poor quality. Another thing a client loses with a template is branding, its possible to add your logo in sometimes, but does not give them the full customization needed to create recognizable branding for themselves.
