Michelle Howe's Articles Display Category|Title|Newest|Oldest Designing Websites for iPhone Viewing Ten years ago most small business owners didn't have a website and probably didn't see the need for one. Now, a business without a website is considered second rate at best. In the next few years, the popularity of surfing the net on your mobile Web is going to skyrocket. How would your website look on a hand held device? Reduce Shopping Cart Abandonment with Themed Navigation According to the MarketLive Performance Index 2007 approximately 96% of visitors to an e-commerce website will not make a purchase and nearly 58% of shoppers will abandon their cart before completing their order.

The truth of the matter is that both small and large businesses make the same mistakes that cause e-mail campaigns to fail. Creating a successful e-mail campaign is simply a matter of following best practices. Tips for Improving Website Navigation A business often has more than one target audience it wants to reach with its website. In order for visitors to find the right information, a website's navigation path needs to be clear. Here are some ideas to consider when designing the navigation on a homepage. Earning Customer Trust Online Building customer trust online is a combination of good branding, good design, and good content. Even a reputable brand with a poorly designed website would cause people to leave. Using Your Homepage to Tell a Story A website is more than a brochure; it is an opportunity to start building a relationship with your prospective client or customer.

What you want to do is grab the attention of your visitor and keep them reading through the content of your homepage. How to Get E-Mail Successfully Delivered E-mail is the fastest and most inexpensive method of marketing, but it is often the most unreliable. One of the biggest concerns facing online business owners is how to get legitimate e-mail past the spam filters. The sad fact is that often over 30% of messages never reach recipients because they are interpreted as spam. Stop Sabotaging the Sales Experience As business owners, we all want to have a successful sales experience with our customers. But sometimes we tend to sabotage that effort, because we try too hard to sell (both on our website and in person). Do You Need a Fancy Website? It's not about how much traffic you generate, but what kind of traffic you generate. The key is to generate traffic from YOUR target audience. The people you want to visit your site are the people who would be interested in your products or services. No body else should matter.

Anything you do to interfere with that decision making process is going to cause your visitor to abruptly leave the site. E-Mail: The Big Time-Waster Although e-mail is our primary tool for business communication, it wastes time and can cause miscommunication. The need to read e-mail throughout the day has become a big time-waster for companies. Most people have two or three e-mail accounts so that double or triples the time spent checking e-mails. Integrated Marketing: The Key to Increasing Web Traffic Companies are just starting to understand the value of integrated marketing. It doesn't matter whether you have a product or service to sell, taking a multi-channel approach will dramatically improve the outreach to your target audience. It will bring you more new customers and help you keep the customers you already have. 5 Tips for Making the Right Impression with Email Five tips on how to create email that makes the right impression How Engaging is Your Website? A successful website is one that encourages interaction with the visitor and becomes the first choice for the customer when shopping online. In order to do this, a website needs to be memorable and create a "stickiness" that makes visitors want to come back again and again. Sell Solutions, Not Products You earn wealth by serving other people; by finding the things they want and giving it to them in the form of a product or service. Entrepreneurs who understand this secret will never have to worry about cash flow. 5 Tips for Writing Search Engine Optimized Press Releases The Internet gives a small business's website the same visibility as a large corporation's website and online press releases work the same way. Once an online press release is distributed, it's out there in cyberspace generating hits and driving traffic to your website for years to come. Are You A Presentation Karaoke Machine? As a service provider, one of the best ways to market your business is to offer free presentations at association meetings. It's a great way to share knowledge and build relationships.

Every word you write says something about your company. Therefore, every message you send needs to be professional and complete. Is Your Website Outdated? A Web site can be your number one marketing tool if you keep refreshing it with new information and make it valuable to your target market. 11 Tips to Energize Your Website Copy Imagine; you spend thousands of dollars designing your website and no one comes.
