Marketing ROI – A Marketing Tip from Marketing Dan

Marketing ROI The importance of measuring the ROI – (the return on investment) you are getting on your marketing investment is very important. As you will remember – we have discussed in previous marketing tips. The traditional method of measuring the marketing result by “having a gut feeling it has worked” is no longer acceptable. Measurement needs to be more scientific if it is to be useful. I have found the following video from the New Zealand Herald where a research professor in marketing discusses the issue (amongst other stuff). http://www.nzherald.co.nz/business/news/video.cfm?c_id=1503079&gal_cid=85&gallery_id=143401 Hopefully it will be 10 minutes well spent when you are considering your upcoming marketing.

Website SEO – Marketing Tip from Marketing Dan

Website SEO Website SEO (or Search engine optimisation) What is most important when you are having your website built the Website SEO or the look of the website?? Most designers will tell you it has to be the look of the website and they will build you a fantastic looking site, fair enough there is nothing wrong with having a great looking website. However a great looking website that cannot be found in the search engines, probably not a good idea. It would be like considering whether to have a great looking shop front in the middle of the country or a not so great looking shop front in the centre of town. You would probably choose the latter. You may like to thing about your search engine optimisation in the same manner, having a SEO site will get your site in front of more eyes than simply a great looking one. Hopefully this explains the importance of website SEO and why it should be a major consideration in your choice of website builder.
