Getting Visitors to come to your website

Conventional Marketing

The easiest way to get people to visit your website is to simply put your website address everywhere your phone number appears.

Eg: Business cards, letterhead, Yellow Pages, building signage, ALL advertising.

A website is simply another way for potential customers to make contact with your business. These days, some people prefer to pick up the phone and call, but others prefer to check out websites first, then make contact. It's simply a matter of covering all your bases.

For a business that already does a lot of advertising on the TV, radio or print, that may be enough to get a steady flow of visitors to your website. For other businesses that don't have the budget to do a lot of advertising, you need to consider some internet based advertising options.

Email Marketing
This is simply the process of sending emails to large groups of people promoting your business. You can either build up your own list of people, or buy/rent lists from other companies.

The main thing to be careful about here is SPAM. SPAM is essentially sending an email to somebody without getting their permission first. SPAM is not only frowned upon, but now is becoming completely illegal. DON'T DO IT!

There are however many lists of people that HAVE asked to be sent information about your kind of product or service. Using one of these lists can be a very profitable advertising experience.

The simplest, and most common form of email marketing is to your own customer base. Sending out promotions, specials, product launches via email is fast taking over the traditional 'Letter Mailout' that can cost $1000's, depending on the size of your database.

The ability to have more than one list, for different groups of people you may market to.

Search Engine Optimising

A search engine is essentially a big library of indexed information. When someone types in a word, it displays a list of all the website pages that have that word in them a lot of times.

Optimising your website
The idea is to 'optimise' your website for general words about your website that people may type in to find you. The trick here is to choose the right words for your business, then have them appear the right amount of times on the page.

Getting Links to your site
A 'Link Exchange' page allows you to add simple links to other sites in exchange for them linking to you. This is the other main strategy for getting higher up the ranking on search engines. If you have lots of sites linking to yours, then the search engine will see your site as 'popular' and give it a better ranking.

Registering your site with all the Search Engines
This is the process of registering your site with all the main national and international search engines that people use to search the internet.

Patience is essential with Search Engine Optimising. It can take up to 2 months just for the international search engines to register your new site. While it may take time to get you there, once you're there it is one of the best ways to get visitors to your website, so be patient.

Internet Advertising

There are two main options for Internet Advertising.

On other websites
In email newsletters and promotions

With both, it's simply a matter of finding websites or emails that target the same person that your business does, but sells a different product/service.

From there, it's simply a matter of negotiating a price to put an advert for your website on theirs. Your advert can be anything from a simple 'text link', to a full page advertisement.

The main thing is that it entices people to click a button and go through to your website (Click Throughs)
