Google Adwords Marketing

Thanks to technology’s brilliant progression that is constantly being tried and tested, we the website and blog owners and users now have features like ‘Google Adwords’ at our disposal! Google Adwords is a method of advertising a bit of news or particular announcement on or about your website. This feature runs hand in hand with the concept of pay per click (PPC) advertising. Google Adwords is seen to being commonly used by hundreds of websites and blogs over the internet to propagate news and information to their target audience.

The working methods of Google Adwords are pretty simple to understand. Depending on the amount of money you pay to Google your adverts are placed on their search listings or even as contextual ads that are displayed on websites with Google AdSense ads. Simply put, the more you pay Google for a particular keyword phrase, the higher your advertisement gets listed every time someone searches for that particular key word/phrase.

Building your website with Joomla

A Content Management Website (CMS) Joomla helps you build a website from scratch…that too without having any prior knowledge of website coding. Not only is it a quick way to get a professional looking website live on the web (recorded time to go live is under 6 hours), the cost of creating a Joomla supported CMS website also falls well within tight budgets.

Joomla’s services are so diverse in the creation of CMS based portals that it offers a multitude of platform options for people who are not looking for a conventional website.

Amongst the many possibilities of creating a website, Joomla lets you create:

• Personal or Corporate blog(s)
• E-commerce based sites (like online stores)
• Online reservation service websites for hotels and restaurants.
• Small community websites with video and audio sharing facilities.
• Forum(s)
And lots more!

Another plus point with Joomla is that it lets you combine several platforms together or maintain a stand alone website depending on your needs on the internet. One thing you have to remember is to look for a host that would support your Joomla based CMS website. You might want to consider using Bluehost that helps you install Joomla after you sign up for a hosting plan of choice. Creating a website with Joomla is free of charge, so the only expense you’d have to deal with is for your website hosting and domain name registration.

If you have a set of particular features in mind for the look and layout of your Joomla base website it is quite possible that those features wouldn’t come with the set options to build your website. You could nonetheless choose and install a variety of extensions that would give you the look for your website that you want. The installation process of these extensions is fairly simple and usually takes only a few minutes to set up, even with the lack of basic programming skills!

Website maintenance – A necessity

You’ve designed a classy corporate website with flashy banners and brilliant search engine optimization. So you’re work’s done right? Absolutely NOT!  It is as important for a company to maintain their website as it is to launch the website on the internet. The success of your website depends on how often you update it, make subtle but effective changes and in general keep your website clean and interesting.

Why maintain you might ask? Your customer is in constant search of newer, better and faster information and services than what you can provide. Maintaining your website just allows your customers to remain aware that your company is updating itself to satisfy the needs of their consumers.

Not maintaining a website could cause the number of visitors to your website to fall. On not finding any new information on your website could cause a valuable customer to assume that you have nothing new to offer them and turn to a competitor in search of the product that you neglected to update onto your website!

Talk to your designer if you’re clueless about maintaining your website. He (or she) would surely be in a position to let you know what’s best to be done for the up-gradation of your website (in terms of meta tags, SEO, Layout change etc) . The idea is to make period minor but essential changes to your website to ensure that you do not fade into the background of millions of websites fighting to get to the top.

Websites like Facebook allow you to set up a Fan page where you can submit your company information and anything else you’d like the general public to know.

Outsource Facebook, Twitter and Linkedin

Social community websites…now a portal for organizations to express themselves!

Thanks to websites like Facebook, Twitter and Myspace, organizations and people alike have a steady ground to advertise themselves and their services. Social marketing is the new way to go if you want to survive your competition. Through these websites you can make your company known to all of your target audience and beyond. The best part of all this is that you get all the publicity for your website for free! All you need to do is go through a simple registration process and boom! You’re in to make your company and yourself known to the world!…Literally!

The idea is to invite existing customers to view your profile on your community web page. Encourage them to sign up (if they already aren’t members of your social community website) and comment about your company on the fan pages and in turn reach out to newer audiences.

One of the basic rules of conducting a business is to stay connected. Social community websites now give companies access to the younger more technologically savvy generation by making themselves visible on the internet. A social community website membership allows a company to see and be seen. See what their consumers think about them and display their services and company ideologies on the internet in order to be seen!

The initial set-up process is quite minimal. It’s ideal that you have an account for yourself and another for your business. This way a visitor can read information about you on your personal page and then read, evaluate and discuss your company profile and the service that you provide with other users in the community.It makes sense to have a link to your business website from your social community page and vice versa. This way a member of the community website knows there is more information pertaining to your company available on a proper website; and a visitor on your actual website knows that you have a fan following on your community website. This is exactly how you can build credibility in marketing and advertising.

It is important to remember that nothing static stays! To elaborate, make sure that your social community profile pages are complete with fresh and interesting information that will compel another member to visit your website. Get into discussions with existing members in your social community group, pose questions to your visitors and in general keep your pages as functional as possible! 3 important words to remember…Networking, Networking and Networking!

Tips for safe social networking

A large number of issues have been cropping up lately with safety of information on social networking websites. People find their photographs being used in a promotion of a certain program when they had absolutely nothing to do with it. Invites and suggestion posts being sent by people who are friends of a friend of a friend on your friend list. The issues and more you might have grown to turn a blind eye too. But with more and more cases of social networking profile information misuse, it is better to be prudent than sorry. Especially if you’re on a social networking site for business purposes. Below are a couple of points that you might want to remember when it comes to keeping your information safe on a social networking website:

Do not post any information you might later regret putting up. You do not know what happens to your post after a certain point of time. The last thing you want happening is your post being used as a comment to be controversial and being used against you. Typically, any information you’d like to keep yours should not be tweeted, posted or scrapped onto a social networking website. For example, a photograph or video of yours transfers the right of ownership into the hand of a social networking website the instant it is uploaded. Play safe and do not put up private or important pictures or information about yourself lest you see it being used elsewhere without your permission.

Another point to remember is to not accept invitations from any random person on a social network. Social networking profiles come built in with security settings that allow you to set who can see your profile and the contents, who can contact you and what application are allowed to reach you. USE THEM! If you don’t want to get a truckload of spam mail everyday, hit the Block button whenever in doubt.

It would also be a good idea to segregate your contacts. You could probably use Facebook to contact long lost classmates, existing friends and family, and Linkedin for your business acquaintances. Social networking websites like these also allow you to send messages to a selected group of people while filtering those you do not want to contact. This is a valuable tool to use especially if you do not want your messages to fall into the wrong hands.

Everyone wants to show everyone else how big their social network is and how popular they may be. Social networking sites are a plenty on the internet. Try to not make too many accounts for yourself in too many different social networking portals. Limit yourself to one or two at the max, because there are only so many hours in a day and social networking websites can get you completely addicted!

Play safe!

Email Marketing Strategies

As is in the case of regular companies, websites also need to market themselves. Those companies that run their businesses on the internet have a plethora of marketing options. Email marketing is one of them. A direct form of marketing, email marketing is a popular marketing tool that companies have been using for years. If you have an email address, it is possible that you have already seen examples of email marketing (like a finance company letting you know about its new loan schemes or a store announcing the arrival of it’s latest season wear. The list is endless)

Email marketing has got lots of advantages attached to it. Not only is it low cost and more effective than pay-per click advertisements, it also allows you to ensure that your messages are directly sent to a pre-determined list of users. You might be a little skeptical of the whole email marketing process since your main concern would be if your customer ever got the message you sent them or was it directed to the trash folder. Get your hand on a good tracking system that allows you to know exactly how many people receive your message, how many open it, and how many actually click on the links within your message. This provides you a good base to determine if you need to revise or add anything to your marketing strategy.

Try to avoid sending in bulk emails though. As impersonal email marketing techniques mat seem to be, you can still add a thoughtful personal touch to your email marketing by individually addressing your clients. You can get this done easily through you Email database. A customer on receiving an email that was addressed directly to them from your company would want to know the contents of the email. Your recipient may be just scanning through his or her inbox. Having a strong catchy subject title could also work wonders. It is now that you need to make sure that your email content is crisp, and clear. Nobody is willing or interested to read a long endless email about a company’s present, past and future marketing strategies. Use video clips, links and images to support any information you might have in the email, to add to the interest value of the email.

Another advantage of email marketing is that since email lists are easy to subscribe to and un-subscribe, you needn’t worry about your customers receiving unsolicited and unwanted advertising.

You want to make sure that you are patient with the whole marketing process. Responses may be slow but with time and regular updates to both your website and email marketing strategies, you’re sure to notice a marginal increase in your website visitor statistics.

Flash banner designs for your website

Most website owners understand that their visitor needs to be interested to explore the website in detail. Though not many people know how to go about doing so. Easy. Flash banners add an element of interest and ‘zing’ to an otherwise information heavy company website. Flash banners do not need to be overtly graphic or flashy. Chances are that if you do place a very flashy banner on you website; visitors to the website could get completely distracted from concentrating on the content. How can you blame them? So what do you do? You design a flash banner that is not only attractive but also adds depth to the information on your website. The last thing you want is a visitor to be repelled by a bunch of swirls and fast moving images in your flash banner!

Flash banners could be designed to point out a new service or announcement of a certain kind. If constructed and designed appropriately, flash banners can do wonders to the look of a website. You may have noticed that many websites use ‘static’ or stationary banners on their website pages. These kinds of banners though not as flashy or as dynamic as a flash animated banner, could work in favor of a company website. It completely depends on how you want to project yourself on the World Wide Web.

Make sure your designer of choice understands your requirements in the flash banner. You do not want him or her to go creatively overboard in designing the flash banner and end up creating something completely different from what you envisioned.  Smooth flowing text and images and soothing colors are the base of a strong flash banner.

Don’t rush through the designing of your banner. Take your time, and go through various options with your designer till you absolutely get what you want!
