Online Business Promotion



Online business promotion is best accomplished with a Web site that works well at attracting traffic, the lifeblood of business.

This article is for you if...

  • You have a business Web site but it does not work!

  • You do not (yet) have a Web site to promote your business online.

Promoting your business online would not be necessary if your Web site already did its job ... which is to attract traffic and generate sales.

For such desirable results to happen...

  • Your Web site must be specifically engineered to "work" the Web for you.

  • Your Web site has to be part of a well thought out marketing plan, designed specifically for the Web.

  • Your Web site content has to deliver what its visitors expect ... and more!

If your Web site does not attract traffic now ... no amount of online business promotion will ever make much of a permanent and positive difference!

Fortunately, there is a time-tested proven solution. But first...

The Sad Facts

Most sites that are built by Web site design firms are generally good looking. Some are even exceptionally pleasing to the eye and are even easy to navigate.

But most business Web sites don't work! In other words, they do not attract a steady flow of traffic (new visitors and prospects).

  • No new visitors in sufficient numbers to make up for, or exceed, natural attrition.

  • No returning visitors in great enough numbers to increase the probability of a sale.

  • No significant return on investment (by far!)..

Why Most Business Web Sites Do Not Work!

This most deplorable situation stems from the fact that...

Most Web site design firms specialize in ... design, the "eye candy" kind of design. Not their fault, really.

  1. Design and Web programming languages and techniques are what they teach in technical schools, colleges and universities!

  2. Web site information architecture and infrastructure are virtually absent subjects on the average curriculum.

  3. Most importantly ... and regrettably ... is that students are not taught Web marketing techniques and best practices!

  4. Web site design firms hire graduates from these institutions!

The sad fact is that 99% of Web sites do not get the traffic volume their content deserve ... that's when they do have content that search engines can actually catalog as useful!

Proactive Online Promotion
The Winning Equation

Web Site Infrastructure +
Information Architecture
+
Web Marketing Techniques
+
Unique and useful content
= Successful Promotion Of Your Business Online

All four essential aspects must be taken care of for your business to assert itself on the Web. Without them virtually no one can find your site.

Remove any one of the four aspects from the equation above and your online business promotion fails miserably!

Of course ... when someone does land on your site...

  • Your site must please the eye.
  • Above all, your site must please the brain and deliver what the visitor is looking for.

But remember! Slick visual effects do not attract visitors. Your site greets visitors with them!

What does attract visitors to your business Web site is given in the table above. Therefore...

For Effective Online Business Promotion

You have some homework to do!
