		<description><![CDATA[Website Design is one of the most essential elements of starting a website. The design of your website will convey a message to new visitors and you have the ability to control what their impression is. Having a web design that sends the wrong message to your audience can have an impact on your bounce rate (the rate at which someone clicks on your site and immediately clicks the back button within 5 seconds). Having an ineffective design will cost you money! It&#8217;s the money you could be making if people signed up for your list, stayed to look through your resources or hired you for your services. A website design that lacks proper Internet Marketing planning and strategy is something we see often, unfortunately, but something you can change luckily. When we sit down with a new client we will review their existing design and discuss the holes which lead to visitors exiting the site without taking action. When sitting down with a new client who wants to start a website, we teach them the proven strategies for web design that will get them a higher conversion rate and better long-term results. Below I have listed a few key [...]]]></description>

This information is brought to you directly out of a quickie eBook created titled, &#8220;57 Tips to a Better Blog&#8221;. This blogging guide is a really great training piece that can help you uncover the missing pieces to your blogging success. Below you will find 2 tips from each of the 10 categories I give tips and tools for, plus one more at the end. Blog-Site Setup Tips: &#160; Do not type your email address into a page and expose it for the world to see. You will increase your spam emails ten-fold. Instead, add in a “Contact form” to your site and link to that page. Choose a domain name with these ideas in mind: Two or three words, anyone can spell it, easy to remember, and relates to the main topic or theme you plan to write about. Design Tips: &#160; Avoid using a theme that displays “reverse text” (white text on a dark background). Readers will find this difficult to read after a while and will end up leaving your site. People like image-use but note that you want to only use “royalty [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I couldn&#8217;t possibly list them all here&#8230; it&#8217;s 30 pages worth of high-quality training material! But you&#8217;ll want to read this anyway&#8230; Do you feel like using the Internet to attract leads or increase sales for your business is like a de-motivating game of Chutes and Ladders where it&#8217;s always “the other guy” that seems to effortlessly rise to the top? Have you been listening to the overnight success stories and realize it&#8217;s finally time for you to get involved? Maybe you have been using the Internet for years and you&#8217;ve simply reached a plateau and can&#8217;t seem to find the next step to take your business to new levels. One thing we&#8217;ve learned in our combined 17 years of working with more than 300 Internet promotion projects for speakers, authors, and owners of small and mid-sized businesses nationwide, not to mention nearly 50 of our own personal niche sites and online product sales sites, is this: The Internet is a lot like playing golf. You can practice your whole life and there&#8217;s always room for improvement. And, the course changes every day. Another thing we&#8217;ve discovered, though, is that using the Internet to benefit any business or non-profit organization [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[We make many efforts to get new traffic to our website. We will work hard to create inbound links. We may even buy Google AdWords or other advertising space on similar top sites. We can do article or press release syndication, social networking tactics, or submit our site to multiple directories. But, what happens when someone gets to your website? From Google: &#8220;Bounce Rate: Bounce rate is the percentage of single-page visits (i.e. visits in which the person left your site from the entrance page). Bounce rate is a measure of visit quality and a high bounce rate generally indicates that site entrance (landing) pages aren&#8217;t relevant to your visitors. You can minimize Bounce Rates by tailoring landing pages to each keyword and ad that you run. Landing pages should provide the information and services that were promised in the ad copy.&#8221; Bounce rates don&#8217;t just apply is you are running an AdWords campaign though. On a side note, it is very wise to sign up for Google&#8217;s free Analytics for your website.
