Jenny asks…

Is it best for SEO to consolidate multiple company sites to a single domain?

I have an SEO job opportunity with a company that has 6 sites. One is the main company site that has links to the other 5 separate company product specific websites. This client would like a re-design on all sites to make the design cohesive across all properties.

My question is should I; with the redesign also suggest that all 6 sites be consolidated to the single parent company site? Or is it better for SEO to keep all sites separate? Thanks!

Nancy Sackman answers:

It is not a easy decision

Is that 5 product stand alone product? Do they related to each other? Are you in the same niche? There are benefit for putting everything in one domain if the product are similar

However if the 5 product is totally unrelated it is better to have their own site because all those different link might confuse the search engine

Nancy Sackman answers:

Well, I run a small SEO company and there are two ways companies generally go about it. The first way, they hire a few people who specialize in particular areas. For instance, they would hire a keyword analyst, article writer, link-submitter, video marketer, social media-er etc. While other companies train SEO’s from A-Z, for every component involved. Keep in mind though, there is a stack of info out there and only so many brain cells per person

Your Questions About Mobile Marketing Companies

Nancy Sackman — Tue, 10 Jul 2012 05:00:47 +0000

Thomas asks…

How did mobile phones begin using carrier companies for marketing?

I’ve looked all over the net for some answers but I still can’t get an idea of this relationship. When did it start? How much exactly did carrier companies benefit from this? How much did mobile phone companies benefit? Vodafon once sold 50 000 preordered iPhones on the first day of sales. That’s gotta be some kind of gold mine for them.

Nancy Sackman answers:

A lot of people have been struggling with websites since the Google Panda Update, one website however did really well they made $2 billion off of it. Guess who it was?

Robert asks…

Are there many mobile phone companies in Bangladesh advertising?

..in magazines their content (ringtones, wallpapers, contests, games) etc? I’m doing a term paper about the degree of mobile phone content marketing in Bangladesh. Here in Thailand there’s TONS of mobile ringtone adverts, almost 40% of every magazine is just flooded. What about BD? Thanks.
Russell, to confirm, you’re talking about Bangladesh? Also, are they from many different companies or do they look direct from mobile operators? Thanks again, everyone.

Nancy Sackman answers:

I’d say 70% of the magazines are full of ads related to mobile phone stuff — new packages, ring tones, games, etc.

Edit: Yes I’m talking about Bangladesh. They are mostly from different content providing companies giving full page colour ads on newspapers, supplementaries and magazines, and the mobile operators advertise themselves as well. Too many ads on newspapers, covering half of the frontpage of major newspapers everyday.

Your Questions About Small Business Marketing Tips

Nancy Sackman — Mon, 09 Jul 2012 05:00:31 +0000

Steven asks…

Small (new) business marketing tips?

As a newly established small business selling business to business professional services where are the best places to advertise? I have a limited budget, I have a website, I have a yellow pages ad which goes live in 2007. Any good suggestions?

Nancy Sackman answers:

Read some marketing tips on this site

Robert asks…

What are some Marketing Tips for a small business?

I manage a small flight school and have been trying to get more people to come fly with us….my target market has been identified as already licensed pilots looking for a new adventure and further training…I want to market specifically my tailwheel program….Do you have any suggestions as to what would work best for doing this…such as flyers, or tri-folds, or TV adds, etc….We have around a $1000 budget so whatever we do will have to be cost effective.

Thanks!

Nancy Sackman answers:

You may want to consider having a website to get the most bang for your buck. The website below offers a comparison between a yellow pages ad & having a website. So you can most likely reach your goals for a lot less than $1000.

Richard asks…

Any tips on starting a small business marketing firm?

I’m working on starting a business while in college. Basically, I want to go up to small businesses and offer my services: flyering, canvassing, posters, printing up promotional coupons, press releases, promotional events (like a sponsored party or something), tv ads, newspaper ads, etc. It would pretty much be guerrilla marketing by myself and maybe two other people (very small chance unless we get bigger than 2 or 3 clients). This is primarily to bump up my resume, but I can’t lose money. Making it is not really important, as long as I break even. Any tips? I don’t know where to start. I mean, I’m confident I could find a client, but as far as rates go, I don’t know what to charge, how to minimize expenditures in this field, how to get on the tv, etc. Also, what do you small business owners want from a marketing firm? I want to save you guys time by doing your marketing. Any help is appreciated. Thanks!

Nancy Sackman answers:

A resource you may want to offer is that of producing a newspaper specific to the client and his business. I’ve done this and no others who have done this with good success. An actual newspaper gives the client significantly more space to deliver a message. You can offset prices by selling ads in it. The newspaper will need to be a ‘niche’.

I use an outfit in Tuscon called, MakeMyNewspaper.com (http://makemynewspaper.com). Their prices are fantastic and cheaper even than producing a flyer. Newspapers are easier to distribute–especially if they have interesting articles and content–people actually take them. Place them in waiting rooms and restaurants and people will read them.

It is a great marketing tool and perhaps one you may want to add to your portfolio.

Donald asks…

For Small Business Owners– What Are Some of Your Best Marketing Tips?

And what are some of your challenges as a small business owner?

Nancy Sackman answers:

Biggest challenge of any owner is getting out of that mentality of “I work for someone else so someone else will get it done”.

Too many owners forget they are the grunt, secretary, research and development, ceo, coo, accountant, advertising, marketing, etc. Gotta think outside the box and really start watching the market, trends of people, time of year, etc.

You spend money all over the place in marketing. But when it comes down to it…there are 2 main things your customers will touch, hands on, that can leave a lasting impression that will gain more business.

1. Web site
2. Business cards

years ago I went all out and did some super nice, very thick and hard card stock, at least 5 times thicker than average business card. I then had a graphic artist do all the layout and artwork and had it digitized at a very high dpi resolution and then the cards covered in like a clearcoat.

Each card ended up costing me $0.68 cents a piece….way above the normal but I wasn’t giving these out in the 1000′s. Most were one on one handing out and every single person commented on the card. It held their attention past that “glace and toss the card aside” and that is key.

The web site…again I went all out but I didn’t hire anyone. Since I already knew how to do sites I sat down and really thought out what should be on the site. I put down indepth info, prices, why’s and how’s of my industry, etc. Really beefed it up with info, facts and a ton of pictures to prove my points.

Again I had a high level of comments on the site for ease of use and the amount of info available, many said the site had answered so many of their questions. Doing this showed my customers I knew what I was doing and talking about. And when someone is happy about something….they spread the word.

Each item here, if done right, focused on your market and really thought out on a personal level…can easily increase sales by up to 15% alone.

Mary asks…

I’m a small business owner, and I was wondering if anyone can share marketing tips?

I now have a web site that under developement, and I have flyers to ditribute.

Nancy Sackman answers:

It pretty much depends on the type of business that you are in. If you are in retail (or a service industry) you may want to place some ads (classified for service) in your local papers, just to get your name out there. Try to find any local shows (like a farm show, homemaker show, etc) that you can have a booth at – make sure that the show caters to your clientel though. You should also make sure that you have a website up, and then get registered with all the search engines. Join your local chamber of commerece and BBB and they will do some advertising with your membership. Try to find a leads group – where you get together with a group of people and pass around leads – these are nice, as a lot of times they will limit it to just the one person in each line of business. We sell RV’s so we are on a lot of the industry specific websites (alot of which you have to join/pay a membership for, but well worth it), we also use Ebay and Craiglist. Also, any time we work a show, we do a drawing so that we can gather customers info and we put that in our database so that we can do direct mailings later on.

Good luck! Be creative, don’t do what everyone else does – it will make you stick out more.

What is your favorite electronic gadget that you’d like to see on sale?

Hi everyone. I’m the Master Thief and I run a deal of the day website called Daily Steals. I can get all kinds of gadgets for cheap, and I want to get the stuff that you love best. What gadgets are you most excited about buying for cheap?

Nancy Sackman answers:

Anything that the company Apple makes, especially the iphone, their prices are totally ridiculously high!!!!!

Laura asks…

How would I describe my job duties when I worked for a online retailer? I am updating my resume, I need help?

At my previous job I would do numerous task:
- I would enter new products onto the website for sale, I would also do the same for the company’s accounts on eBay, Amazon and Buy.com.
- I processed orders daily that was placed on the company’s website
- I checked the sites daily for mistakes, error’s in price, description, etc.
- I would also deal with Customer Service but I no longer can deal with that part due to health reasons.

I would really appreciate it if someone would help me write out my previous employment duties in a way that it looks presentable on my Resume.

Thanks for your help,

Nancy Sackman answers:

Say that it was Data Entry and Quality Assurance.

John asks…

What would it take for you to….?

There are daily deal sites out there called ‘Group Buy’ sites. They send you an email for a new greatly discounted deal each day but the trick is, each deal is only available for 1 day and a certain number of people must want to buy the deal before it can be purchased.

I would like to know, would you prefer to be a member of a website that is free to browse & join, there is more than 1 offer available to purchase so you can pick and choose to buy an offer you actually want, the offers are available to purchase on the site from as little as 1 day up to 3 months giving you time to get some cash together and buy the offer and you can subscribe to only receive emails about offers you would be interested in?

I work for a new website in Australia called whatsonoffer.com.au and we are launching our new site tomorrow – 19th January 2011 – and I am trying to increase our membership base. I believe we have a far superior website over the group buy sites and I am trying to get some ideas on how to get our name out there for people to join up and the type of people who would be interested in using our site.

Also, if you are a business – what would it take for you to want to try us out?

Thanks for your help everyone!!

James asks…

A few questions about buying a Macbook…?

I am looking in to buying the aluminum frame 2.0 GHz Macbook. I have a few questions and would appreciate the assistance of anyone with experience.

1. If I buy the Macbook at a retailer such as Best Buy, can I still take it to the Apple store should it need to be looked at?

2. Do retailers (once again, such as Best Buy) honor the deals that the Mac website offer, such as the free iPod Touch back-to-school sale?

3. Are there any payment plans that Apple offers other than the one that requires you to open up a Juniper credit card? I have looked around the site and haven’t found any, but I am still curious.

4. Are the used Macbooks just as “good” as the new ones? I am not a hardcore editor or anything, just looking for a computer for typical daily use, but the $300 savings are very appealing. I know that they come with the same warranty and such, but I would like someone with a used Macbook to chime in.

#3 is probably the most important question I have. Paying for a $1300 laptop in 3 months isn’t really the most flexible option, and with the payment plans that other retailers offer, it would be tough to buy directly from Apple.

Thanks for your help. As always, please refrain from flaming.
Thanks for the responses bsghost123 and John.

I just checked MacMall… seems like a good site. The laptop I am looking at comes out to around $1220 with $6 shipping and all (no sales tax is nice). The only thing is the payment plans as I said earlier. I see they have a few offers such as BillMeLater and preferred accounts, so I will check those out.

I was waiting for the back-to-school offer and saw it today. The free iPod Touch is very nice, especially since I could just sell it if I don’t need it. Only thing once again is the payment plan….

Just to get this straight, you think that it would be fine for me to buy the used Macbook as long as I get it directly from Apple, correct?

I’ll think about this some more. Thanks for the help though!

Nancy Sackman answers:

As far as I know, Best Buy will not honor the free iPod deal. However, if you buy a Mac at BestBuy you can take it to the Apple Store to get looked at. Apple only offers the lame payment plans with the Juniper credit cards as far as I know. The used MacBooks are just as good, just check out the hardware specs and make sure they meet your needs.

Hope I helped some.

Small Business Marketing

Nancy Sackman — Fri, 08 Jun 2012 07:21:39 +0000

Small Business Marketing in Charleston – How Not To Break The Bank

When considering the return on investment, or ROI, for your small business marketing budget, keep in mind that the internet reaches many more people than newspapers do. You might be set up in Charleston, but clients could be ordering your cloth diapers or handmade light fixtures from Dubai. How does this happen? There are lots of ways to get the most out of online marketing, many of which are free.

Small Business Marketing Through Search Engines

Although it costs money to sign up with a web host, services provided for a monthly fee will often include website design. It is always a good idea to create a good first impression on the web by having a skilled web designer create your page. Once your site has developed a reputation for being eye-catching but also sensibly organized, word of mouth will spread and customers will come calling (or emailing). But how do you get eyeballs onto this beautiful website you had created? Without proper search engine optimization, your online marketing efforts will fizzle. Although it would be altruistic for your company to provide the viewing public a beautiful website, the viewing public more than likely found you because they were searching for information. So optimization means you provide the search engine “spiders”, who crawl the web identifying what each page is about, the correct information that tells the spiders that, yes, our page is about ____________; you fill in the blank. We’ll call it Metal Wobblies for now. If you have done this correctly, then any customers wanting to buy Metal Wobblies enters the search term, the spiders have already identified that your page is about Metal Wobblies, only about Metal Wobblies, and all about Metal Wobblies, and guess what? There you are on the first page of the search engines for Metal Wobblies. See how easy small business marketing is?

Small Business Marketing With Social Media

Other free online marketing tools include social media sites. We all know it’s important. But very few of us know how to apply it to our small business marketing efforts online. The great thing is that Twitter, Facebook, Digg and others allow consumers to post their news and promotions for free. It is hard to find a company that does not have a Facebook page or a link to Twitter these days, and there is a good reason for this. It is a way to acquire ‘likes’ and ‘friends’ who pass your company name on to their ‘friends’ online. Writing a blog is also a simple way to get your message across. Use WordPress or a similar system, often supplied by your web host for little or no extra cost. Here you can write short articles using search engine optimized terms to increase your chances of appearing on search engines when internet users type in their “terms of curiosity”. What are your customers curious about that your business would be glad to supply them with?

If you want to focus your small business marketing on a certain region, consider local online marketing strategies such as posting details with city websites. These carry business information and/or local events and update an easy-to-use calendar that individuals easily browse. There might be a cost, but your company name will gain exposure in your town where word spreads fast.

Beautiful downtown Charleston

Before a small firm obtains a web host or a social media account, it is important that a company create an online marketing plan. This starts in a ledger or with special software, leading to a budget for money and time. Even though Facebook et al. are free, they are still time-consuming if they are to be used effectively. There are companies who you can see are making an effort at maintaining a social presence but instead it looks more like High Noon in Hadleyville with Gary Cooper looking for a friend – someone, anyone, who will friend them, like them, +1 them, retweet them. (Don’t be that company.) It really makes sense to hire an expert who knows the in’s and out’s of social media and small business marketing, and who will know how to bring your fans running. They can do it all, on all social media sites, or since this is about how not to break the bank, they can concentrate on one type of social media – Facebook, for instance – and make a fan page for your business of which you will be proud. That’s small business marketing without breaking the bank.

Email Marketing – What Not To Do

Nancy Sackman — Sat, 26 May 2012 18:14:11 +0000

Instead of being an email marketing “How To” guide, the article linked to below is a “How Not To”. With biting humor and wonderful insight, the author lets business people know about the pitfalls of email marketing the wrong way.

“In working with thousands of small businesses, we’ve identified the top challenges and solutions.” http://www.vocus.com/blog/top-small-business-marketing-challenges-solutions/

Email marketing is becoming increasingly common because it is an economical and effective way to keep in contact with customers and provide them with incentives to keep doing business with you. However, as people become inundated, their tolerance level decreases and they are more quick to click that “Unsubscribe” button if the company emails are annoying. Don’t be that company! Watch this video for more helpful strategies.

Top 4 Reasons To Use an SEO Consultant in Charleston

Nancy Sackman — Thu, 17 May 2012 05:21:53 +0000

SEO Consultant in Charleston Will Help You Dominate Online

Almost everyone has a website. You might be based in Charleston and you might be offering a product that is innovative, fresh and – best of all – cheap. For some reason, though, you don’t have a good customer base on your website. However, your competition that has an inferior product with a higher cost is getting most of the customers and his website seems to be at the top of Google search engines! How on earth is he managing that and how do you get in on that customer traffic and business potential? It’s not difficult. Your competitor has realized a very important fact for internet business. He has been using a top Charleston SEO consultant to tweak his website to appear first on local Google searches. Apart from that, the SEO consultant also made sure his website was searched frequently by search engines resulting in a better ranking and much better targeted consumer traffic. You are not doing anything wrong but, to compete with him, you will also need a knowledgeable consultant to teach you the tricks of the trade.

Here is what your competitor is doing the right way and why he’s beating you online.

SEO Consultant in Charleston is Helping Your Competition

1. Targeting his content to a local as well as an international audience – This may seem difficult to accomplish but it is easy to do. As you and your competitor are based in Charleston and he wants to attract local customers, he sets up online contests, newsletter, coupon days and bargain days that are advertised through the website. Local customers can be encouraged to download coupons from the site and then use them at his online store and real-time store. These same deals can also be used online for international customers encouraging them to shop online. Original and optimized content that is interesting, offers something for the reader to take away and uses keywords can be a great way to pull in customers. He is not only improving his local customer base but is also making himself the go-to site for this particular product online as well. His SEO consultant in Charleston creates personalized unique content that is marketing his website as the primary source for the product.

2. He has optimized his site – Apart from making optimized content, his SEO consultant in Charleston also carried out extensive keyword research to ensure that his website was the primary one for any searches related to the keyword. His Charleston SEO consultant used the Google Adwords tool to create interesting articles that were very helpful for readers and which referenced other articles and products on the site. Keywords were used in the title, in the content, description, and in the keywords area to attract paying and interested customers. In fact, these articles written by his seo consultant were a way to sell his products by using links and SEO, and it was very effective for him.

3. Social bookmarking – It is very necessary to join as many social bookmarking sites as possible online. A business owner may not have the time to do it themselves but they can hire an expert to do the job. Your competitor hired an social media SEO consultant in Charleston who started an extensive social bookmarking campaign. He then started syndicating or republishing the website content on Digg, Delicious, etc, exposing to a larger network of readers who would be interested in the product. Using social media, he was able to publish free press releases, make more friends, bookmark his website, link to other interested blogs etc. Twitter was a great way to inform local customers about offers and deals and, since it is checked by Google every 24 hours, it led to a huge surge of interest and knowledge about his product and company.

4. Built an online presence – Your competitor uses his Charleston SEO consultant to establish his name as the authority for providing the product. That means answering queries on Yahoo answers, participating in forums where interested users are gathered, setting up a Youtube account with relevant videos, and answering queries and questions related to the product. This establishes his company name as the primary source of the product and the best source for the product.

As you can see, a few simple tweaks to a website can result in many more customers reaching your site and buying from you. Instead of sitting and watching competitors siphon your customers away from your business, don’t you think its time to find a good Charleston SEO firm who will do the same for your website?

She relaxes, they’re ecstatic, and you’re the hero……if only she can find you. That’s what Charleston mobile marketing solutions are really about.

Your daily deal website will have eight pages pre-done for you: Home, About Us, Contact Us, Privacy Policy, Terms of Service, Site Map, and two keyword-optimized pages based on how you want to be found in the search engines (keywords). Also, it will have the images and/or videos that you provide added to it.

To sweeten the deal (and hopefully make it an easier decision for you), with this daily deal website we are offering you a choice of one of the following basic* packages:

1. An optimized mobile website.
2. An optimized Youtube video.
3. An optimized Google Maps listing.

What we need to install your Daily Deal Website

WordPress for your daily deal website

There are some things we’ll need from you so that we can begin installing your daily deal website. If there are articles that you would like to use for the two keyword-optimized pages, you can provide those – and we will then optimize them for the search engines. They should each be around 500-1000 words in length. Or, if you do not have any written material available, we will provide generic articles about your industry.

We would also like a total of 10 pictures, images, and/or videos for your daily deal website, on which we will place all of the correct attributes, titles, and tags needed for the search engines. These are not “extras” – they are very necessary! They can be of your office, your staff, or generic pictures of your business. If you have videos available, even better!

If you don’t have a header (the band across the top of most websites, usually with a logo on it), we can make one for you – nothing fancy but better than blank space! (And you can change it later.) Every aspect of your new website will have all the tweaks necessary for it to become a high-performing website!

Last but not least, you will need to provide web hosting for your daily deal website and a domain name. We recommend Hostgator - see the money-saving coupon below. The Baby plan should be enough for most small to medium businesses, and if you outgrow that, it’s very easy to upgrade. Hostgator customer service is unmatched – they are friendly, knowledgeable, and available 24/7 via toll-free number for questions. Enter the coupon code DAILYDEALWEBSITE and you will receive $9.94 off of your first purchase. So if you sign up for the monthly plan of $9.95, your first month will be 1 cent. Or, if you prefer to pay for a year or more at a time, save 25% off of your entire purchase by entering the coupon code DAILYDEALWEBSITE25PCT. After purchasing one of the above options, you will then get a confirmation email which will have information that we will need to build your new daily deal website, so be sure and save it! Click *here* to get Hostgator hosting.

For your domain name, in the past we have used both Namecheap.com and Godaddy.com. Go Daddy tends to have a lot of “extra” offers that are annoying and not necessary. Namecheap is a much more straightforward process and also has lower prices on most domain names. Most domain names are inexpensive – around $10 – though they do vary. PLEASE DO NOT BUY A DOMAIN NAME UNTIL YOU TALK TO US! There are competitive advantages to using a domain name that reflects your industry and not your business name. For instance, BillsPlumbing.com (not currently available, by the way!) is not as advantageous for the search engines as charlestonplumbingexperts.com.

We won’t leave you hanging after the sale, either! After delivery of your brand new daily deal website, we will hook you up with training videos so that you can continue to do the daily, weekly, and monthly tasks needed for proper search engine optimization. Or…if you’re too busy running your business, Yes! we can do all that grunt work for you, because that’s what we do! That is entirely optional, of course – just with purchase of this daily deal website offer, your website will be far ahead of your competition’s site.

Pay special attention here! We believe that a “branding” website is best left to those companies that have a lot of money to spend on “pretty-ing up”, like Coca-Cola! Our specialty is building websites that sell, that promote, that get found by people looking for you and your goods and/or services, websites that bring you more customers, more business, more sales, more money – that’s what your daily deal website will do. (Then you can worry about branding.)

* By non-performing, we mean one that does not rank high in the search engines, does not attract customers/clients, and/or does not comply with best practices.

* Our basic package means your daily deal website is installed and optimized for the search engines, designed to bring you more customers/clients, and your logo added.
