Recession Proof Your Website!
Focus on these three areas first when marketing your website and you will see exponential results.
Analytics - Forrester Research showed that a company that brings in a dedicated analyst can increase ROI by 900% - 1200%
Usability - Website sales in e-commerce sites can improve dramatically simply with a usability review. Improve the usability of your website and you may achieve 80% to 200% increase in desired metrics.
Search Engine Optimization - When done correctly SEO can result in 40% to 4000+% ROI.
Some sites respond very quickly and see an immediate increase in rankings and increased visitors. Other sites require more attention and additional off-site or on-site optimization help, or even a full marketing campaign in order to see results.
