Promote it!

We list here a number of online marketing initiatives that can be used in addition to search engine optimisation.

The best marketed sites are the most successful.

And don't forget that there are offline ways of promoting your site too. We'll help you bring all of these into your marketing mix

Online Marketing

Search Engine Optimisation is not the only way to promote your website. There are other ways of using search engines and other methods of online marketing. It is simply not enough to have website submission; web site promotion is wider than just a search engine service. This is how we can help:

Pay Per Click (PPC)

Your costs for Pay-per-Click (PPC) search engines relate directly to the number of visits you get. You only pay the PPC provider when a visitor clicks on your link in their search engine.

We'll do the research and analysis to ensure that your marketing spend produces the best ROI in the shortest time.

 

Directory Submission

Submitting to directories costs money as each site is vetted by a human. The directory providers are very strict and if your site is not 100%, it will be rejected, but you still pay.

We'll handle the preparation of your site to minimise delay and maximise chances of getting listed first time.

Traffic Packages

Rather than focus on search engine positions, our traffic packages focus on getting traffic to your website. So you pay for a steady stream of visitors, not positions.

Lead Generation

We'll get you the leads and you pay per qualified lead, not per visitor to your site.

Banner Ads

Some websites will sell you space to advertise your company. The offer is often to place a banner ad on their site which links back to your site.

You may wish to check out some banner exchanges where you place code on your site which enables other people's banners to be shown on your site. You earn credits by showing banners and those credits are used by placing your banner on other people's sites. Banner exchanges are usually free.

in addition you may to put a page on your site containing a selection of banners so that people who like you can put one on their site, linking back to you.

Banners come in standard sizes.

What you'll get from us:

We will design standard or non-standard sized banner ads as jpg, HTML or rich media for you to make available to other sites. We'll provide the html code needed to make it work on other people's sites.

Emailers

Email marketing, to opt-in lists, is an effective way of marketing your website.

What you'll get from us:

We'll produce an emailer in HTML or Flash and also do the copywriting.

Ezines

An E-zine is an electronic magazine. There are several ways that you can use e-zines to market your site and business.

Send your own

We'll provide you with protected access to our e-zine server. You'll use it to maintain a list of recipients, who can subscribe and unsubscribe themselves using a form on your website. It's double opt-in and out to avoid malicious sign ups.

You can create and send your own e-zine online. We'll even design the layout for you.

Ad Creation

Several e-zines have huge circulations and accept advertising. We'll write your ads for you. We create a number of ads based on your brief at various character numbers so they can be used in various different ezines - all of which have different size limitations.

E-zine Research & Ad Placement

Before your advert can be placed it is essential to identify the best and most targeted ezines related to your market. To this end we have access to many e-zine databases and can conduct extensive research to locate the most suitable ezines in which to place your ad. Once we have drawn up a suitable list we can put a report together for you; showing the recommended publications; their readership; target audience and advertising rates. You can then place the ads yourself at a a time suitable to you.

E-zine Article Creation

One of the best ways to gain maximum exposure for your website is to submit articles to the editors of ezines for publishing. These articles include a resource box that is always published with the article. So once the article has generated interest and established credibility - readers can click on the link and visit your website. Our experienced writers can create the article based on your brief to generate maximum response. It has to be written in a certain way so it generates interest in what your site is selling - but at the same time must be highly informative and definitely can't be a blatant sales pitch otherwise it won't get published. Our talented writers have the skills and experience to first get the articles published and then generate a good response for your website.

Reciprocal Linking

It is becoming well known that a key part of getting good positions in search engines is have good links into your site. Many website owners are happy for a "tit-for-tat" arrangement whereby you each provide a link to the other's site.

Our reciprocal linking service will get your website at least 50 targeted inbound links.

This service is incredible value for money in view of the exhaustive and time consuming work involved.

NB this service is included in our main Search Engine Optimisation projects (as needs dictate in order to achieve the guarantee). Although it is available separately, search engine optimisation clients do not have to pay for it separately.

What you'll get from us:

First our experts trawl the Internet for prospective link partners who meet your criteria.

Once we have compiled a list of at least 150 prospects we create a link page on your site so we can show the prospects we are serious and have already added their links. We then contact the prospects with a personalised email; advising that we have added their link to your site and ask for a link back; outlining the benefits of linking to your site for them and their own site visitors.

Through a tried and tested process we are able to generate a good volume of reciprocal links for our clients.

This has a beneficial effect on your search engine rankings due to link popularity as well as a direct effect of generating traffic through the actual link sites.
