Internet Marketing and Getting Your Site Noticed
You may have created and established the best Web site in
the world, however if the world does not know it is there,
it will not do your business any good. As a result, knowing
how to market your site and getting your site noticed is
incredibly important to the success of your business and
something you will want to concentrate your efforts on.
Fortunately, getting your site noticed is not expensive so
marketing on a tight budget does not mean you can”t get
quality exposure.
One of the first things you will want to do is pack your
Web page full of keywords that people might use when
searching for information contained in your site. The more
keywords you have, or keyword phrases someone might use,
the more often your site will be returned as a result for
the person searching. You want to be in the top 5 results
posted as often as possible,
so being diligent about keywords and keyword phrases will
help direct more traffic to your web site.
Also, once you have packed your page full of useful
information and as many keywords as you and your thesaurus
can think of, you will want to upload your URL to various
search engines like Yahoo, Google, Excite, Alta Vista, and
any specialized search engines that focus on your
particular business or service. By including more keywords
on your web site, when the search engines are searching for
sites pertaining to the keywords entered in the search
engine, your page will be listed as a higher result than
others. This is very important because people generally
check the first few web sites results and skip the others
if they find the information they were looking. However,
make sure the information you provide on your site is
useful and you don”t just have a string of keywords to
attract people to your page. If you have useful information
about a product or service, people will look around. If all
you have is a bunch of keywords and nothing that actually
pertains to what the individual is looking for, they will
leave and never come back. So, be alert to what you are
offering potential customers and attentive to the way you
bring them to your page.
If you have done all of the above, and are still interested
in more traffic, then consider marketing your site on other
related or non related sites by banners and the like. This
is a way of letting individuals know about your product
that might not be aware of it to even search for it. By
advertising in this way you are reaching a sector of
individuals who want and need your product, but were never
aware of it.
There are multiple ways to market and of getting your web
site noticed, just make sure you do it in a responsible
way. Internet users are fed up with pop up ads, Spam e-mail
and other unsolicited information. For instance, many
people now have programs that block pop up ads, which means
you are not even marketing. Finally, you don”t want to
anger potential customers or have them close off their mind
to your product, so be creative when you are marketing,
aggressive and always respectful of current and future
clients.
