It is no good getting a customer to your site if it's poorly built or uninformative. Unlike traditional business, where a customer builds a relationship with the business or shop owner, the customer can only build a relationship through the website itself. It is therefore critically important to have a website that incorporates these items:
1. Clear, concise and easy to navigate.
A. The first or second paragraph should tell customers what the website is about.
B. Keep your pages simple and concise.
C. Make sure your pages load quickly with properly editored html.
D. Graphics are nice, however the make the pages load slowly.
E. Make sure all pages are linked and navigation bars are easy to find and use.
D. Too many banners can annoy customers and make your site look unprofessional.
2. Convey trust and expertise.
A. An "about us" page is a must.
B. Include contact details on every page, including phone numbers and addresses.
C. Include testimonials from past clients.
D. Start your own ezine and write articles on relevant issues.
3. Keep the customer at your website for a certain period.
A. Provide free information, advice and articles.
B. Incorporate guest books, surveys competitions etc.
C. Supply links to other websites offering free items, software, counters, scripts etc.
D. Provide free email accounts, ffa page, mini search engine.
E. Include a search facility linked to a major search engine.
Many of the above items are applicable for the next section (4) also.
4. Get the customer to revisit and inform others.
A. Start your own ezine.
B. Start your own affiliate program.
C. Have "specials" every once in a while.
D. Use a script on your website like "tell a
friend" to inform others.
5. Decent or niche products.
As you can see, I have placed products down the bottom of the list. You can have the best products in the world, however if you don't have the other four items, your website won't be doing much business. Many of the above items you will be able to find free on the internet.
The best guide to whether your site is up to scratch, is to notice what you do yourself next time you're looking for an item on the internet. Do you read the testimonials? Do you read the "about us" page? How many times do you visit the site before you purchase? etc. Many of these methods may not be suited to your website, therefore you just need to search the internet for ones that are. Also, adding some or all of these items takes time, so be patient and it will slowly
Sharepoint View All Site Content
This is what you want to happen with the material on your site, once it gets indexed and starts to get high traffic volumes your site will start showing up in the search engine results and therefore kick-start your business.
But what do you do if you are not a writer or don't have the time to write the content you need to improve your site?
There is quite a simple answer to this question, and it is to use Private Label Rights, also referred to as PLR. These are articles you can purchase from writers which can be modified or changed to suit your needs.
On the other hand you may already have some Private Label Right articles sitting on your computer, and are not quite sure what you should do with them. PLR articles can be used as an inexpensive but highly effective marketing tool. Ideally you will buy articles that tie in directly with your website or have some sort of direct connection to the materials that you already have published.
The subjects available are really too many to list. The world of private label rights articles covers any topic you can imagine and from lots of different areas.
Most bundles of private label rights content are sold in multiples of the same matter, find one available that makes sense to post on your website about your product or services or something your Buyers would be interested in. For instance, if you sold special albums to stamp collectors you might want to find PLR articles on the subject of stamp collecting.
When a stamp collector began typing in a search for thier key words into a search engine, the goal would be for the PLR articles you have posted to your site to come up in the results.
Once a visitor clicks through to your site, they will see the stamps or stamp related products you've got for sale.
You can re-write the articles as many times as you wish, although you must make sure that the message is still clear and the content is still believed to be of the high quality that the search engine spiders are looking for. Do not be influenced to change only a couple of words and post the same article to your site lots of times.
This will not help you. You want unique content; duplication can have the opposite affect on your index rating and website page ranks. Don't stop adding new PLR articles either, keep a look out for additional PLR articles that fit your niche market, they are a lowly investment that can reap large traffic rewards.
The more generated traffic that you are able drive to your website, the better the chances that you have got of successfully marketing your products and services and therefore making a larger overall profit.
