Website Promotion & Online Advertising

Target Marketing
In your history of surfing the web, you must have visited a site that says it is a "shopping mall" site. It contains thousands of items from hundreds of different topics. How often have you purchased from one of these sites? Probably, not often, unless it was a major website with a huge budget. Small business websites should consider catering to small niche markets.

When deciding what products you are going to sell, choose just a few products and specialize in those products. It's much tougher to advertise a site that sells a wide variety of products due to generalization. If you have a narrow, well defined set of products, your whole advertising campaign will be easier and more effective.

This is especially true when marketing to search engines. General keywords are difficult to rank competitively. Specific keywords can achieve much better rankings.  A good article to read on this business concept is called Narrow Your focus.

Transcend Solutions™ includes internet marketing and site search engine optimization with all of our web design solutions. We utilize the Internet's top marketing tools, services and best practices to begin promoting and marketing your web site....at the most affordable price.

Banner Ads
Banner Advertising can be a valuable way of marketing your website and business.  Banner advertising is typically purchased in bulk and therefore can be expensive.  Business benefit from aligning their banner ads with only the most targeted keywords.  Banner ads can be charged per impression or per-click-through.  Every time your banner is displayed is considered an impression.  This is more expensive but is beneficial in building a brand name.  Every time a consumer clicks on your banner and hyper-links to your site is considered a "click-through".  This is therefore less expensive and focused on generating traffic.

Keyword Ads
A most effective form of banner advertising is referred to as keyword ads.  Keywords ads get served by provider sites and search engines when pre-determined keywords are searched y users on the site.  Keyword banner ads can be charged per impression or per-click-through.  Unless you are advertising on a web site that generally attracts your target customers, keyword advertising assures that visitors with interest in your keywords will see your online banner ad.  Several top search engines offer keyword advertising.
