Web
Marketing
One
of the keys to success on the web is getting people to find you. With
billions of web pages existing on the net, this can for sure be a daunting
task. To assure the success of our client's web sites Tallin Interactive
has kept abreast of the latest developments and techniques of web marketing.
Want
to sell the pants off your competitors?
We focus with laser-like intensity on building traffic and sales using
innovative marketing techniques and tactics.
Marketing
Means Selling
We define marketing as selling by using a variety of tools and tactics
to draw qualified buyers to your site. Marketing includes everything from
the way you answer the telephone to how you select and deliver the products
or services you sell.
Getting
customers to buy from your online business takes more than sending out
a press release, listing your site in search engines, emailing an offer
to a rented list, or advertising on TV or radio. We'll cut through the
buzzwords and blather to show you what really works.
The sites
we build or re-build are always designed with marketability in mind.
Marketable
Concepts Are the Key to Success
Marketable concepts need to be built into your site plan because marketing
is critical to success. Unfortunately, marketing often is thought of only
AFTER the site is created. That's the wrong time to consider marketing.
Creating
a web site that wins design awards is not enough. Without smart promotion
even a great site will fail. Your site needs to do a lot more than look
good. It needs traffic. And not just tire kickers. You need qualified
buyers. The integration of web design and development with focused marketing
strategies is vital to the success of your site.
Building
in Marketability
You need to think about how the features you create on your site will
lend themselves to publicity, advertising, cross marketing and other traffic
building tactics. Even if you are already successful in a bricks-and-mortar
business, you will need a comprehensive, targeted marketing plan for online
success.
For example,
the days are long past when just building a site would assure you of media
coverage to drive traffic to the site. Today letting the world know that
you exist is a complex and difficult job.
The first
virtual tour, the first site to create a way for customers to see how
they will look in actual clothing and the first online gift reminder service
were marketable features that made sites newsworthy and helped them get
press coverage. These features were no mere bells and whistles, they were
well thought-out ways to give these sites a marketing edge. You can still
have equally marketable features even if you can't be a first mover in
your field.
If you sell
plants, you may be able to create a kill-proof plant kit that could be
cross-marketed with a home decorating site. That site could supply your
site with copy on decorating with plants, and you could supply them with
growing kits. If you make and sell chocolate, you might run a Valentine's
Day contest offering a week at a romantic resort as a prize for the most
sincere love letter. Reciprocal links would cross-promote both sites.
These would not be afterthoughts. The plans for them would be built into
the site plan.
