Website Development is Not Just Another Pretty Site

During the website development process keep search engine ranking in mind. It is important to incorporate appropriate triggers on your site, i.e. calls to action, lead capturing tools, online forms, professionally written content and customer engagement features such as blogs and social media integration.

Be sure to establish social media goals and articulate how they will align with your overall brand, marketing and public relations goals. Will this include content development such as blog posts, case studies, white papers, webinars, etc.? You need to decide what will drive prospects to your sales funnel. If you choose to go this route you will need to pay attention to SEO keywords to improve your search engine rankings. Your website will be raising brand awareness to increase brand recognition and online influence. Thus creating loyal website visitors and boosting community awareness and engagement.

Lastly, creating metrics to measure the goals by tracking URL shares, clicks and conversions that move through the various social media sites (e.g. Facebook, Twitter, Pinterest and YouTube) to your website is very important. It will drive brand awareness and increase prospects.

So while you are developing your new website remember search engine ranking. It is vital to the success of your company and brand.

Case Studies - An Added Benefit to Marketing and Sales

Case studies are a wonderful way to help new clients and prospects see that you have worked on projects similar to their needs. It also demonstrates your knowledge of your client/prospect's business and establishes your reputation as a problem solver.

Case studies are made up of three parts:

1.  A situation or problem
2. Solution
3. Outcome and Results

They establish your reputation as a problem solver, are a powerful advertisement and are extremely cost-effective. Another added benefit is that it establishes your company as a thought-leader and can help increase your mailing list when shared through various social media outlets.

Here is a sample of a case study that I have done.
