You've decided that your company needs a professional web site design to promote your products or services on the Internet. But what kind of web site do you need? What's important in getting your message to potential customers on the web? Do I really need a web site at all? What is search engine optimization? Is Internet marketing important to my business? Internet Strategies can help you answer these questions. Web Site GraphicsAn appealing web site is key to attracting and keeping potential customers on your web site. Combining color, images, and text into an attractive package is one challenge. Making that web site appear quickly and correctly on the customer's computer is just as important. Most studies of web site designs show that web surfers decide about a site's potential within ten seconds. According to a recent survey, only about 21% of households in the US are using high speed Internet connections, leaving over 75% using slower dial-up connections. That means that you have a very limited amount of time to get your message onto the potential customers' computer screen before they move to the next site. Captivating CopywritingA beautiful looking web site will capture a viewer's attention for a certain amount of time, but the key to holding that attention is through good copywriting. Your web site visitor makes decisions about your business based on the information provided in the web site text. The web site design community adheres to the adage that "Content is King" when it comes to providing interesting and easily understood copy that is tailored to your target audience. Search Engine OptimizationWhat is this search engine optimization that we keep talking about? People find your web site in different ways, including other marketing vehicles such as direct mail and advertising. But the primary means of finding web sites is through the use of web search engines (like Google or MSN search) and directories (like Yahoo). Each of these search engines has its own way of determining how to rank your web site, based on the keywords entered by the web searcher. Internet Strategies' search engine optimization specialists stay on top of the latest techniques to ensure high rankings for your web site based on your company's keywords.
