Premature Web Site Abandonment

Sunday, August 2nd, 2009

Does your business attract consumers who impetuously bolt out of your establishment?

On the Internet, the rapidly fleeting visitor is tantamount to someone walking out of your office during the sales presentation. Premature Web site abandonment (PWSA) is not a new phenomenon. Since the dawn of the worldwide Web, Internet users of all walks of life have been deploying the “back” button.

In other words, it’s a downright hindrance to new business.  To assess the retention of your company’s site, we’re asking you to download a copy of your site’s traffic activity or web site statistics.

•    Clumsy site navigation
•    An unappealing interface
•    Cluttered layout
•    Inappropriate keywords
•    Vague product and service information
•    A misaligned pay-per-click ad campaign

Clueless Marketing Zaps Business

Thursday, July 2nd, 2009

Television viewers are forever the victims of clueless advertising and marketing. Have you seen the Budweiser commercial? It ‘s a ridiculous spot, where Conan O’Brien’s agent encourages him to not to worry about the ramifications of being seen prancing across a stage in a jumpsuit, roaring, “Brooom, broom, party starter.” In the interim, the spot airs in America and Mr. O’Brien is a laughing stock.

Although the Budweiser commercial tells a memorable story, it is does not inspire the average American male or female for that matter–to indulge in a frosty cold Budweiser. In fact, the TV ad alienates the target audience. It does nothing to fortify the brand.

The lesson applies to marketing and advertising any-sized business. To prevent entities from committing similar missteps, this week on Best Web site Designers, we’re taking an introspective evaluation of your Web site. Conduct your own market research, recruiting several individuals to answer the following questions about your Web site:

•    What does your web site convey about your products and services?

•    Is your marketing message suited for the appropriate audience?

•    Is your marketing model enticing enough to bolster your brand?

•    Does the design reflect your company’s brand identity?

•    Does your search engine marketing campaign attract or repel to new consumers?

An inability to answer these questions is tantamount to the Anheuser-Busch InBev Company producing the aforementioned Budweiser commercial. Clueless marketing zaps business.
