Promoting your website
Part 1: From your office

Promoting your new website from your office.

What can you expect once you have a web site? Will I suddenly be inundated with emails and phone calls from people who have seen my website?

In a nutshell - no. We first need to let people know that you have a website, and where they can find it. Read on .......

You have taken the first major step in the right direction by getting a website. Now we need to let people know that you have a website and where it is (its address) - logically, only those that know where it is will be able to find it. So the more people that get told about your site, the more traffic it will get. So how do we do this?

We'll break it down to two areas: - at or from your office, and online.

• Part 1 - From your office (this page)
• Part 2 - Online promotion

The Basics first - at your office

Your company already has a fair bit of printed literature that is issued to clients and prospective clients. Your website should be included on all of these items which include:

• Invoices
• Delivery notes
• Statements
• Compliment slips
• Business cards
• Product specs
• Data sheets
• Pamphlets
• Brochures
• Flyers
• Adverts
• Etc

Basically anything you have printed with your company name must also have your website address included.

Using your outgoing Emails

Whatever email address you were using before you registered your domain name must now take a backseat. Don't get rid of it just yet, you will still get emails from that address for a while.

Make sure you inform everyone about your new email address, and make sure that all emails are sent out from your company using only the new email.

Make sure that every email that is sent out has your "signature", ie your contact details, at the bottom, and that that includes your website address.

Next we will look at online site promotion.

Promote your site

You have a website, now we need to tell people about it.

Many people make the mistake of assuming that you design a website, and sit back and expect a sudden flow of traffic to your site.

We need to ensure that your site is designed in search engine friendly manner, and then let the search engines no that your site is now on the internet.

We need to spread the word about your new web site through all means possible, such as existing tools available in your office, online directories and search engines, etc.

We will help you get on the right track.
