Are you ready to go global?

Internet Marketing – a brave new world

Are you ready to go global?

The Internet has revolutionized the way we communicate. Now, instead of real-time conversations between two people that spread information one person at a time, we all have the ability to communicate on a global scale. One voice can be heard by millions. It’s the same with your company. The Internet gives you access to a customer base that is on the biggest of stages – quite literally, the world.

Internet marketing strategies are different. That’s why we have developed Internet marketing tools that allow you to reach the world while building an intimate bond with each individual customer. In fact, we can show you how to refine the way your business communicates on every level, whether it’s with your vendors, your existing customers, or the new ones you want to reach via the world-wide web.

How to optimize your site for search engines

• Choose the right keywords that will get your site noticed. You should choose the same keywords your customers are most likely to use – words they’ll be using on the search engines to find you. Use them consistently throughout your website.
• Create a title tag relevant to your site containing the keywords. And it’s a good idea to add h1, h2, and h3 tags – typically small title tags with your keywords – and they will help further optimize your site.
• Perform a 301 redirect on any non-www. URLs to a www. URL to prevent search engines from classifying your site as two different websites. This will help keep your searches focused and prevent your rankings from being diluted.
• Make sure your link anchor text is built around your keywords. Google in particular takes a strong look at anchor text in its site cataloging. Be careful to use slight variations in your anchor text to prevent search engines from treating your site like it is spam

Other search engine optimization strategies

• Make sure all text on your site is written with the search engines in mind. Keyword usage within your site’s text will improve its ranking during searches.
• Be proactive and submit your site to search engines and other directories, rather than assume they are going to find you. This ensures your site is being cataloged and will alert your to any issues that might hurt your rankings.
• Review your site’s content on a regular basis. Content must be fresh and relevant in order to keep visitors returning to your site. And you will want to keep your keyword presence up throughout the site as you update it.
• Use a data analysis tool (such as Google Analytics) to review your site’s traffic and track how well your changes are impacting your site. You’ll gain valuable insight into your site’s traffic – what search engines are sending visitors to you, what countries and states they reside in, how well you’re converting visitors to sales, etc. You will also get a clearer picture of what keywords they’re using to look for you. Modify your keywords if you determine a trending phrase that will improve website traffic.
