How to attract visitors to the site?

Uncategorized Comments »

Spending a decent amount on site, the leaders of most companies do not measure out how this site effective.

Designed insufficient

The company is the site. This is a good, expensive site, developed in a professional web studio. He is the face of the company and intended to promote products and services online. Customers and partners are happy attending it. You can quickly find if you write a name in the search bar. For advertising and promotion of products in the media paid decent money. Billboards advertising products tower on city streets. Advertising posters encouraged passengers in public transport and, of course, the company buys banner impressions on the Internet.
It would seem that the site of not only visited nayledachishyy user is confident that the site works. However, it is possible that this site, respectively, and information about the company found not all, despite the fact that the site address is on all promotional posters, and the constantly repeated on the radio. It is «image» of his where he is directly, ie the Internet.
When analyzing the efficiency of the site should reflect on how potential customers can get to it. Maybe they find a site to the directory or a link from another site, and if lucky, by clicking on the banner. However, according to statistics, more than 80% of visitors come to the site from search engines, with nine out of ten who came to the site through a search engine - is targeted visitors who are looking for motivated products that interest them. Users communicate their needs in search queries. Nor should probably explain that the sites that consistently appear at the top of search results received wider audience than those published in the middle or end of the list. At first glance, everything is quite simple - the higher the position of a site in search query results, the more the «right» visitor enters the site, respectively: an increase in the number of visitors is to increase sales volumes. But the question remains: how to explain the search program, that this site meets the most precise representation of the user query? Here it comes to the aid and optimize sites for search engines.

Defining the target audience

Ordering site creation or redesign the site based on templates Decide which is the target audience site.

By Pareto rule, 20% of people give 80% profit and the remaining 80% give only 20% profit. To define the priorities in developing the site, give the general characteristics of visitors who bring the basic income, given that's what:

  • You can not create a site that podobatymetsya all.
  • In order manufacturing site based on a template focuses on a target audience of the site, ie, consider the age of visitors, their gender, social, psychological, physiological and other features to design the site most responsible their differences.
  • If a company is ordered redesign of the site, analyze and organize age, sex, social status, tastes of customers who found a site on the Internet, seeking products and services.
  • If the first firm order manufacturing site, consider the age, sex, social status and tastes of customers who use services or buy your product through normal advertising. This statistic is important in the creation of site design.
  • With age in the human eye decreases time adaptation to light (the ability of the eye to distinguish objects in the light and the dark). This leads to a change in color perception and association, which are the colors.
  • The same color can be different associations in people of different ages.
  • If a site is important to take into account not only its subject but also the taste of primary age audience.

Features of color perception

Perception of color

In terms of perception of color please note that on a light background of all the colors dark, and to clarify the dark. Depending on the background color become deceptive color (true color given by other colors or shades of other colors). For example, gray object on a green background color is pink.

Primary colors in an environment of high color saturation slightly change color tone. Yellow color on a green background becomes slightly orange, and red surrounded by green - more saturated.

Land contrast

How to get promotion to the first page of search engine

Uncategorized Comments »

Note that - in this regard laid pidvoh - advance false assumption.

a) The first page of search results - some specific place. This is not so: «Yandex» and «Rambler» produce at least half a million pages on the first day of each and they are all different! Which ones are and how we need? How to expand?

b) advance provides that to the first page - the absolute benefit. In addition, all other types of promotion and promotion immediately excluded from the discussion.

And that both - a myth. But will discuss the order.

Company - interest in the Internet

It is possible to judge, currently experiencing a marked growth of interest in online promotion of small and medium business offline. Here is a typical portrait of the client:

  • a company offline
  • turnover of $ 50 000-200 000 per month
  • a «information» website
  • No Internet Marketing
  • No dedicated web-budget.

These companies are ready to promote their Internet services but do not know how to do it and how much it cost.

Reasons for interest in the Internet

If there is a growing interest in the Internet, why? There may be various reasons. For example, fashion, the implications of the Internet boom (finally dokotyvsya). And objectively internal: the high cost of print advertising and increasing number of consumers coming online. Here are the reasons as most clients:

  • advertising is not working;
  • significant proportion of customers began to come from the Internet;
  • attract customers via the Internet cheaper.

Про вартість сайтів

Некатегоризовано Прокоментуйте »

Питання про вартість сайту постає першим

Неможливо точно визначити вартість розробки сайту, не знаючи призначення сайту, не бачивши всього контента сайту, не ознайомившись з технічним завданням на розробку сайту.

Від чого залежить вартість створення сайту?
Тарифікувати інтелектуальну працю неможливо. Неможливо з математичною точністю розкласти на окремі складові всі основні етапи розробки сайту і точно визначити вартість кожного з етапів.
Як неможливо по телефону поставити точний діагноз, не бачивши хворого і не знаючи результатів аналізів, так неможливо відразу ж відповісти на питання про вартість сайту, не бачивши контента сайту, не ознайомившись з його якістю, не знаючи, для чого саме, з якою основною метою повинен бути створений сайт.
Єдиного підходу до розрахунку вартості розробки сайтів не існує. Кожна веб-студія, що професійно займається розробкою сайтів, може мати свою думку про те, як визначити вартість розробки сайтів. Нижчеприведені відомості відносяться, в першу чергу, до бізнес-сайтів.
Під бізнес-сайтом ми маємо на увазі сайт, призначений для одержання прибутку його власником за рахунок залучення потенційних клієнтів з конкретної цільової аудиторії
Може виникнути питання: «Які ще сайти, окрім бізнес-сайтів, існують?». Окрім бізнес-сайтів існують і інші типи сайтів (розважальні, персональні, художні, новинні, інформаційні і так далі).
Розробка будь-якого сайту прямо або побічно викликана потребою у отриманні якої-небудь вигоди для його власника. Але безпосередньо отримання прибутку, як основна і безпосередня мета створення сайту, ставиться лише перед бізнес-сайтуми.
Як відомо, в бізнесі «дрібниць» не буває. Отже, і при розробці сайту для бізнесу повинні бути враховані всі «дрібниці». Від повноти обліку «дрібниць» і якості їх технічної реалізації залежить кінцева якість бізнес-сайту, його здатність привертати увагу цільовій аудиторії, тобто її конкурентоспроможність і, зрештою, рентабельність.
