10 Things Stopping People From Visiting Your Site!Written by Larry Dotson
1. You don't offer free original content. It's important to give your visitors information they can't find any- where else. If you're only source for a certain type of information, people will flock to your web site.2. You don't offer free software. Most people like to find good deals on software for their computers. If software is free, that is even better. 3. You don't offer a free contest or sweepstakes. It's a fact, people like to win things. If you can fulfill that need, people will stop by to visit. 4. You don't offer a free directory. Create a directory of web sites on a particular topic that is related to your target audience. People will visit because they will find what they're looking for, all in one place. 5. You don't offer a free e-zine. Most people love to get free information that they're interested in emailed to them on a regular basis. This saves them time and money. 6. You don't offer a free community. People like to have a place were they can have discussions with others on a particular subject. You could add a chat room or message board to your web site.
| | 3 STEPS TO SUCCESS!Written by Kristy A. Taylor
Over years I have visited numerous web sites, probably thousands upon thousands, and I am still amazed that people are not implementing simplest of all marketing steps.These three steps are continuously being ignored by many 'Netrepreneurs' and I dare say that many must be wondering why they are not yet 'overnight millionaires'! Not only are these steps easy to implement, they are also a simple case of 'common sense'. I will not buy something from a site if so called 'business man/woman' is incapable of even providing basic of all details; such as: 1. a semi-attractive site would be nice - no I don't want 50 million graphics popping out at me, but I would like to be able to at least follow context of site. Is site about this particular product or service, or is it about Tom, Dick and Harry's fifty million affiliate links and banners? Does it really need that ugly font scribbled in uneven columns, with overlapping graphics? Big Turn Off!! A simple menu tree down one side (or across top can work well), and clear, uncluttered text. Scrolling backgrounds are annoying, as are fluoro fonts.
