Static Web Site
Every business needs an online presence of some kind. A simple static web site is a great start. Most people begin their search for a product or service on the internet and having a web site is becoming an order qualifier. If you are absent from a user's search results, you are unlikely to get the order. Start out with a small site to describe who you are and what you do. We can incorporate some analytics software and some additional controls so that you can measure the return on your investment. Your site will be W3C compliant and tested on all current and the most common past internet browsers.
Database Driven Web Site with Content Manager

A new web site with a content manager back-end may be the best solution for your needs. A content manager makes it easy to upload images, make changes to text and organize your site in a meaningful way. Selecting the right platform will allow you to market your business more affordably, even when you need to make constant changes to your site.

Corporate or Personal Blog (Weblog)
There are a lot of people that don't understand the appeal or the need for a corporate blog. It is not just an online diary for people with too much time. A blog is just a different format for presenting information to users. If your corporation has information that you need to share with your customer base, a blog may be easy and affordable way to do so. A blog is also a great way to increase the traffic to your web site by developing relevant searchable content.
Personal blogs can also be a way to generate some income. Do you have information that is interesting to a niche group? If you can focus in on material that will interest readers, you can turn that user traffic into advertising revenue. Let us know what topic you are interested in blogging about and we can help you build a blog to present your information, market it correctly and select an affiliate or advertising program to monetize your success.
SEO Search Engine Optimization
Being seen on the web and having a web site can be two totally different things. You have a couple of choices: you can commit a monthly budget and purchase the search phrases that are important to your company or you can organize your web site content effectively so that you can start receiving organic search referrals. Presenting content so that it is appealing to search engines will increase your traffic tremendously, but it is challenging. Google utilizes a very comprehensive search algorithm that is frequently changed. SEO is an ongoing process and not necessarily a one-time expense. Allow us to develop a program that will allow you to develop quality content and boost your search rankings.
Opt-In E-Mail Marketing Campaign
Marketing of products or services has typically come in some form of viewer interruption. Television, radio, and print advertisers have over-used this type of marketing and unfortunately it has also been used heavily in internet advertising. Banner ads, spam email, pop-ups and deceptive links have cluttered the internet and put your customers on guard. Email marketing is an inexpensive way to deliver your message to your potential or current customers. The problem is that EVERYONE is trying to take advantage of the low cost of delivery. E-mail lists are compiled and sold every day. People are being bombarded with e-solicitations; and more often than not, these messages go straight to the trash without being opened.
The good news is that there is a better way. An opt-in email marketing program allows you to compile a smaller and more qualified mailing list. It will be full of contacts that are expecting your message and are willing to read and respond to it. Your open rate will increase drastically and the possibility of extinction will be greatly reduced. This marketing tool will allow you to maintain a connection with your market as well as provide periodic impressions that will help to build your brand.
