How We
Transformed A Dull, Zero Traffic Web Site
Into a Profitable Internet Marketing Tool
Five
years ago, our web site was probably a lot like yours. As a new small business,
we focused exclusively on writing the best software for our clients. We assumed
business would just start coming our way, simply because we were more skilled
and did a better job than the other guy.
We
looked around at other web sites and made ours just like everyone else’s,
thinking we would model our site after existing “successful” businesses. And
just like everyone else, we told the world about our company and processes,
talking all about the technical details about what we do... And we waited...
Then we
started to notice something strange. We just weren’t getting any visitors to
our website.
Lesson One: A Web Site Does Not
Attract Traffic on Its Own
We
invested hundreds upon hundreds of hours researching and testing ideas for
drawing traffic to a small business web site. And the visitors arrived… in
droves. For a while, our site attracted more traffic than 99.8% of all other
sites, (ranked 38,000 out of 5 million according to Alexa.com).
But
still, for some reason, even with all those visitors to our website, it failed
to drive any new business our way. Then, it hit us – when we modeled our site
after everyone else’s, we failed to realize...
Lesson Two: Most Websites Are Not
Profitable
According
to Kevin O'Connor, the Chairman and CEO of DoubleClick, a vast majority of
websites simply cost more money to develop and maintain than they bring in.
Your
website’s success depends on the balance of four crucial elements that few web
design, web programming, or internet marketing firms truly understand. Missing
any one of these elements, your website will simply fail to perform.
Lesson Three: You Don’t Want a Web
Site
Since
web sites, as most people build them, lose money - do you still really want a
web site? After creating a number of profitable web sites, we’ve noticed an
interesting trend. It seems that small business operators don’t really want a
web site at all. Instead, what you really need is an Internet marketing sales
tool that makes your business more profitable. You want that sales tool to:
-
Attract More Clients,
-
Reduce Costs of Doing Business,
-
Improve Customer Service, and
-
Generate Goodwill in your community.
Lesson Four: You Need a Solid
Internet Marketing Strategy
Building
your internet marketing sales tool demands more than just a good product,
graphics, and web traffic. It requires a solid Internet marketing strategy.
Beyond the essentials, a solid internet marketing strategy consists of the
following:
-
Strong marketing direction focusing your internet marketing on your most
responsive prospects
-
Search engine optimization bringing highly targeted traffic to your web site
from the world’s largest free traffic sources
-
An effective message captivating readers and compelling them to take action
-
Web programming to
-
test, track, and tune your marketing efforts
-
capture prospect information
-
deliver promotional materials without taking up your time
-
Interactive marketing bringing visitors back again and again
-
Web site design integrating all of these factors into a complete internet
profitaility tool
We have
laid out the steps necessary to reproduce what required years to learn in a
complete internet marketing system we call our “Four C Web Marketing System”™.
And you will learn exactly how we make this happen.
But
first, you'd probably like to hear if this stuff really works. Don't take our
word for it, listen to what some of our clients have to say:

of having to cold call, for the first time ever, prospects have been calling on
a regular basis, simply because they found us on the web...”

“Our business has picked up five-fold since you reworked our site. We're
getting calls even during what traditionally were the 'slow' times of the year.
We have always had great products. But we finally realized that having a
better mousetrap just wasn't enough. Now we have a solid marketing
strategy that brings us steady stream of prospects who are practically sold
already.”

“When I first asked you about how to successfully market with web sites, your
non-stop flow of powerful ideas and suggestions was like trying to drink from a
fire hose. In all honesty, I was thinking I’d just gather a few nuggets of
wisdom, and take them back to make money for our customers. But before an hour
had passed, you taught me more about web marketing than I thought there was to
know.
At that time, I was selling my web marketing services to our clients, thinking
I really knew my stuff. After that conversation with you, I think you’ve
probably forgotten more about web marketing than most people ever really
know about it.
After setting up our site to use just one of
your internet marketing ideas, we've been getting a non-stop stream
of qualfied leads from our web site. The hardest part for us
has been making the time to call on all of them.”
