Working your website
September 09 2010 | Chris Grabiec
Frequent changes to the site are paramount. The search engines need to know you are alive and that you are working the site. Change the text, add news, have a blog on the site, put new photos up, add new stock, give new information as it comes out.

What has your website done for you lately?
October 05 2009 | John Janisse
How is your website today? Many people can't answer that question because they haven't visited their website today. Some haven't been there for a week; others longer. It's not that they don't care about their business, but they just don't expect much from their website. Sure, it has to be there, but beyond that, the language around the website's purpose gets really fuzzy. Is that you?

Are you getting the most out of your website?
September 11 2009 | Jeremy McMaster
Many companies have a webpage developed, place it online and expect people will just show up to start purchasing goods and services. The reality is that getting a quality design is only the beginning. The website is only one part of an overall strategy and should be closely linked to your in-store/company systems, print catalogs, and other sales channels to ensure success. Promotion, search engine ranking and cross-linking all play an important role in delivering traffic to your website.
