search engine positioning optimization
To get the desired level of positioning is very important that you understand what search engine positioning service is before you start to solicit project quotes.

Whether large or small, domestic or foreign, opened recently or having years of market presence, we are all trying to sell something online. Through experiments with this technology and integrating it into our business processes, there comes a time when we realize that to achieve the quantity and quality of visits we desire, we need our website to be located in search engines, that is, we must hire an optimization service to get the website to appear within the top positions in major search engines like Google, Yahoo and Live Search.

So far so good and the usual procedure would be to appoint a person within the company in charge of investigating who can perform this optimization work, how they will do it, how long will the process take and what the estimated cost of this project will be.

Lack of an effective strategy

Today many of the entrepreneurs and managers who decide to implement online marketing programs in business know where they want to be but almost never know how to get there.

This is PART 2 of this article, Part 1 is here, Part 3 is here.  

Where to start

Do not start with a fixed idea about the cost or number of pages of the website. The website must meet a series of objectives, they vary from sector to sector, but most of them should apply to your project. These include promoting your organization on a larger scale, simplification and reduction of the process of distributing information to stakeholders, reducing administrative costs and creating an enlightened leadership within the industry that your organization serves.

Tips On How to Buy / Purchase A Website - PART 2



painting blue
The purchase of websites is not very different from the process of acquisition of other technologies, which essentially takes place in three stages: information, quotation and proposal selection.


There are several design techniques

Those who believe that web design is very simple and they think there is only one way of doing things, are misinformed. There are various web design techniques and is important to select the most appropriate one based on company requirements. Graphic design templates, for example, are practical and economical, but may not reflect the true picture of the company. Animations (Macromedia Flash) is an appropriate technique for the industries of entertainment, communication and training, but not for business sites that publish large text documents. Frames is a technique that facilitates the production of the website but somehow complicates the operation and promotion. The custom design is perhaps the best alternative for many businesses, but it must be taken into account that the project is usually a little more expensive.

Buying technology has never been an easy task. Especially when it comes to acquiring technology that we have no previous experience on to help us make the right decision, such as Internet and websites.

If you were to purchase at this time a computer system, I’m sure it will be more or less easy for you to define an action plan to select the most suitable solution according to your requirements, and that the experience of nearly three decades of contact with hardware and software now allows you to quickly understand the benefits, scope and limitations of different offers on the market. You know of course that there are different kinds of information systems, some more complete than others, with varying degrees of functionality and integration and different scales of investment and of course your decision will be based on these criteria.

Electronic Catalog Design - Importance Of Content Management Systems (CMS)



electronic catalog
A professional content manager system allows you to not only publish your online / electronic catalog, but also take advantage of all that volume of content to generate traffic and promote your brand and products online.

If your business is dedicated to the manufacture and / or distribution of diverse product lines, you are likely to become involved sooner or later in the development of an electronic catalog. This kind of websites are developed in cases where a company needs to display a large number of items, commonly organized by categories and sub-categories of products. They are usually very large sites (200 web pages at least) and often require a continuous maintenance due to changes in fashion, materials or designs, such as footwear industries, clothing, furniture, decoration, clothing, lingerie, shoes and jewelry.

Search Engine Positioning: Should You Ask An Expert?



no excuses
Companies usually set their own strategies to position their website in search engines without having a clear idea of what to do to achieve it.

When promoting an online business, the positioning of websites in search engines plays an important role. The managers responsible for online marketing campaigns are very well aware of this, and so they do all they can to achieve the best positions in search engines. However, most companies are pursuing ineffective strategies that don't lead to good results.

In terms of search engine positioning, many executives still want to impose their own conditions and strategies. That is, they intend to position the website of their company at the top, regardless of whether or not the website complies with the standards required by the search engines for content, language, menus, programming standards, best practices in web design, development platform, domain name, hosting, optimization techniques to web pages, among other items. Trying to position a website that was not designed for promotion, it is almost like trying to get Google to learn to speak our own language and adapted to our conditions.

Search Engine Positioning - The Fifth Element



positioning, chess
Learn what makes some businesses succeed and others fail in their online marketing campaigns.

If you plan to promote your products and services online, you then have to hire the following five basic services: domain registration, web hosting, web design, maintenance and search engine positioning. In addition to these, it may be necessary to hire other services such as image and logo design, communications consulting, product photography and translation facilities if you require your website to publish in other foreign languages aside from english.

Usually companies hire exclusively the first four services, ie they register a domain, work on website design and hosting service and months later they get into the task of maintaining the website, updating webpages with the recent developments of new products. I don't know the reason, but they seldom care to bring their project to the fifth element, the diffusion of the website, which is a fundamental part of the formula for promoting a business online.

Web Design for SMEs



key in lock, puzzle, key to succes
Probably the biggest mistake made by those who have had the opportunity to implement these new technologies in their business is the fact that they thought that designing websites is as simple as using them.

Experimenting with online marketing programs with web designs made by people with little knowledge and little experience in these technologies has cost a great price for many. Many entrepreneurs and executives who took the decision that their nephews were responsible for the design project of their website to promote products and services online have been paying the price of opting for the cheaper and easier way.
