Online Advertising :
Spirit Communications understands the importance of getting as much online exposure as possible. Our online marketing staff makes it their business to know all the ins and outs of online marketing. Here are some of the ways our online marketing staff will put your site ahead your competitors.
Initial Analysis :
Whether we are starting from scratch on a new Web design or working on an existing Web site created by another company, your site must be search engine friendly.
The first step is to determine whether or not the server hosting your site is search engine friendly. Each domain name needs to have an IP address assigned to it and some companies will actually share an IP address with multiple domains... this is bad and will significantly reduce your chances of even getting listed on most search engines.
The next step is to completely analyze the code within each page of your entire site to determine whether or not your site is search engine friendly. There's a lot more involved in web site optimization for search engines, merely adding meta-tags to your code isn't enough.
Getting Listed :
Search engines use data-collecting programs which send "robots" or "spiders" to your server to look for HTML files from which it may collect data. Your HTML files are located in sub directories within the server. It is imperative that the files on your Web server are structured in a way which aids the robots in their quest for content.
Although search engines periodically send their spiders out to retrieve new sites and to re-spider older sites, there are way too many Web sites out there and hoping your site will be re-spidered isn't a wise approach.
Once your site is search engine friendly we then need to manually submit your site to all the major search engines on a regular basis, but not too often though because most search engines will penalize you for over submitting in a short period of time.
Keeping a Web site at or near the top of search results has become a science. The best search engines frequently modify the way their databases list Web sites, and we work systematically to stay aware of these changes and use the latest techniques for promoting a Web site on the Internet.
Link Exchange and Email :
But your site does not depend on search engines alone. Our staff is constantly working to gain exposure through appropriate news groups, personalized emailing, and contacting other site administrators for most affective networking solutions.
Keyword Analysis :
We use various tools and programs to analyze all aspects of the client's business for different ideas for keyword use and emphasis. We look for any keywords or phrases that are being used to find any product or service that our client provides.
Traffic Analysis and Reports :
We use programs including Web Trends and Funnel Web to analyze all aspects of the client's daily traffic. We see how many visitors are coming each day and where they are coming from.
Marketing Consultation :
An online marketing strategy should be combined with other marketing campaigns; each supports the other. Spirit Communications will help guide you through the steps necessary to combine all of your advertising and marketing efforts.
