When asked how experienced they considered themselves with PROMOTION of a web site majority knew nothing or just how to do basics.

Conclusion

It was clear from these early results that issues with search engine ranking and getting more traffic by what ever means were among greatest challenges for website owners in 2005. Other specific problems were in creating content, managing and getting links and finding time to do it all. The majority of respondents felt they knew little or just basics about website promotion.

What about others who could not find time to watch television? And those few who does not have pleasure of having it? This is where printed materials come in. Prints can be made as good an advertiser as television. Making them available on streets and every good location can guarantee readership. Visibility in outside places as well as inside is always a factor to consider. Most people are bound to be outside their homes doing errands, at work or just catching some sun. And they would get to see these visuals even if they want to or not. Seeing them is not a choice these people have to make because they have no choice. Upon seeing, reading follows suit, then interests are piqued, most often than not.

Being able to have right printing resources and quality is an assurance. Getting right people to do it is another. Costs are not a big factor anymore now that many companies are into discounts at same time giving best they have to offer.

What makes a good movie? It is not only George Lucas. It is marketing, in tubes and in prints, among others.
