Multiple Top Positions Build Better Brands

Filed under: Branding, Design & Branding, Multiple Top Positions Build Better brands — Baytech Web Design @ 9:55 am

Building your company’s brand identity should not be left up to gaining one certain position in the SERP’s. The best performance will come when you use a combination of methods. Using only one will limit your ability to boost your corporate identity to the position you want for best results.

Your brand will get the greatest boost when you are able to achieve both the top organic and the top sponsored placement. Gaining either one will help you with brand recognition, but you will get much better increase in traffic with both.

Getting either one of the above positions will definitely increase your brand identity by itself, but why settle for something that is less than the best? You can get much better gains when you achieve both – although it will take more work.

When it comes to the branding effects resulting from sponsored listings in the side margin, you will also find that one is better than the other. By combining a top sponsored position with a sponsored side listing, you will discover that it will produce better brand awareness than having only a top organic listing by itself.

When it comes down to it, you should not settle with holding only one of these top positions in your branding strategies. You can move your company’s brand to a much more secure position with greater loyalty by going for more.

Filed under: Branding, Use Pictures and Videos to Strengthen Your Visibility — Baytech Web Design @ 12:43 am

As people perform their online searches, there are things in the SERP’s that will catch their eye more than just a typical search entry. The displaying of pictures and videos are powerful and will capture their attention. When used correctly, this display can help you with your Web branding.

More than 33% of people will click on a picture when it is displayed in the SERP’s. About half of that will click on a video picture when displayed. This makes it a powerful tool when taken advantage of in your online branding.

The next step is obvious. Since people are more prone to click on a picture or video in the search results, it means that you need to get yours online as soon as possible.

Using the new microformats and RDF will help you to do just that and it will give you quick visibility. Follow the steps needed to get it online and make sure you get it right for quicker results. Before you do that, however, make sure that it fits into your existing branding strategies – or adjust it so that it does. You should have a clear plan and goal in mind. The plan will enable it to be more effective overall and not simply something tacked on with no real purpose.

Don’t Forget the Small Design Issues and Text

Filed under: Don't Forget the Small Design Issues and Text, Web Design — Baytech Web Design @ 12:38 am

While you are testing everything, you really do not want to assume that anything can be left on your page without testing it, too, to see if better results might be possible. After all, it may be the small things about your Website design that are keeping you from the best results you want.

Even the words you use on your buttons need to be tested to see which ones work up to your expectation. Good Web design should not be left up to what someone thinks looks good because your business success may actually depend on it. Many businesses have found it to be true and now do nothing without extensive testing on every page – especially those requiring some form of interaction.

As you test everything, you want to be open to all possibilities in order to produce the quality E-Commerce Web Design needed. This means that nothing should be excluded. Be a little daring and venture out into the unknown with even some potentially wild ideas – you never know until it is tested. Keep it, though, within the limits of your brand.

After you have tested and eliminated features on your Web page, you then want to combine them – one at a time – and retest to see how the new combination works. It is possible that a new combination of small things could result in a difference of over 60% more people clicking or ROI! With such high numbers at stake – can you afford to leave the necessary testing undone?

Baytech Web Design can provide quality Web design for your company and do the testing, too. We know what it takes to help your Website become visible and profitable. Talk to us today and let’s get started on building your successful business.

Rich User Interface

Filed under: Design & Branding, Rich User Interface — Baytech Web Design @ 10:28 am

Website design has recently gone through a good change when they start to become more user friendly. The use of a Rich User Interface is slowly becoming more evident, especially in E-Commerce Web design.

When Rich User Interface is used on a Website, it is refreshingly different and visitors are apt to notice the difference in Web design right away. Although it has been promised for a long time, it seems that the day of its arrival has come.

The applications that provide the new enhanced user interactivity are much better developed and can really make a difference between an ordinary Web design and a quality Web design. The bells and whistles that programs like AJAX, Flash, and many more, now provide users with give them a much more pleasant experience on a particular Webpage.

Instead of the old-fashioned static approach, there now are many options that allow developers to put their Webpage light years ahead of their competitors. So much more can be done with these tools to enhance the beauty, usefulness, and interactivity of a Webpage that a designer needs to consider between many possibilities. Not only is it more eye appealing, but the changing colors of buttons when pressed, the boxes that enlarge on mouse overs, identifying tags, etc., all work together to make a visitor feel more at home.

Another good thing is that more Websites are taking advantage of is less crowded Web pages. There’s more white space which gives it a more relaxed and inviting look – causing people to want to stay longer.

Check These Features for Maximum Webpage Performance

Filed under: Check These Features for Maximum Webpage Performance, Web Design — Baytech Web Design @ 12:42 am

Testing your Website design and landing pages for peak performance will require that you test just about every feature. You do not want to assume that any well-worn phrases are OK until you have actually tested them. It is quite possible that the simplest phrase – even ones that you find on successful Web pages – may not be the best ones to use.

By testing each phrase – especially ones that direct people to do something – such as Start Here, Sign Up Now, etc., you can develop the successful Website structure you need that will bring you the most action. Use split testing so that you have a control, and only change one or two things at a time to test. This way, you will know exactly what brought about the changes in response.

Identify each possible change and then work on them one by one in each section until all is tested. Then test the best features in each section with other best features. This will give you a fully optimized Web page design. Do the same thing with pictures, graphics, etc., until you get the best possible results.

At the end of your testing of each page, you should have a finished E-Commerce Web design that will work powerfully for you. Test each aspect of the design but use short tests until you can see a clear difference in performance.

Finally, keep records of your results so that you can look back and discover what works and what does not in order to shorten the testing period with new Web pages you create. Start out by identifying all possible changes that can be made – and then start making them.

Make High Page Rank Part of Your Branding Strategies

Filed under: Branding, Make High Page Rank Part of Your Branding Strategies — Baytech Web Design @ 12:31 am

Building your company’s brand identity should include trying to get a high page rank. While not everyone can be number one, it does help to guarantee a high degree of visibility online.

The reason for this is that there is the matter of public perception of a company that appears in the top SERP’s. People tend to perceive that companies that get in the best positions in the SERP’s are actually the best companies. In fact, some studies show that this may be at least as high as 35% of the people who were asked.

This clearly shows the value of going for those high page ranks in the search engine results. Online branding would be much easier because you could build trust and confidence from a large quantity of people quickly – possibly almost instantly.

Hopefully, after you read this you will see a real need to go for the top in the SERP’s and that it will be a clearly defined goal in your branding strategies. Remember that companies with powerful brands have more sales and have to do less to build their brand once they reach that point – they just flash their brand and get results from loyal customers once they are at that stage.

Baytech Web Design is ready to help you build a strong brand identity. We have a proven team and proven branding strategies. Talk to us today and we can start building for a stronger tomorrow.

Powerful Tools to Get People Searching for You

Filed under: Branding, Powerful Tools to Get People Searching for You — Baytech Web Design @ 12:14 am

Getting people to look up your company or products online because of what they see or hear offline can lead to some serious sales. Knowing which mediums to use to generate these sales should play a part in your branding strategies.

When it comes to which media are the most powerful for creating brand recognition offline, it would have to be TV ad’s, word of mouth, and a magazine or newspaper ad. Each of these led to an increase of 30% or more of an increase in people going online for search engine results.

While other forms of media showed less than that, it still is a large enough percentage that you do not want to ignore using them. Clearly, creating a corporate identity needs to involve as many media forms as possible – for the purpose of creating as many online clicks as possible.

When you consider all of the SERP’s together – from all offline media methods – you end up with a powerfully high number. It should also be clear that when people are searching for your company or product by name – that you have potentially serious buyers coming to visit your Website. Baytech Web Design can help you target them better.

Other offline methods include seeing a store’s location, hearing an ad on the radio, a billboard, and a few more. These are the most effective of the remaining methods.

Baytech Web Design can help you turn that traffic into buying customers through its proven branding strategies. Let us start to make a real difference in your marketing campaigns. Talk to us today.

Use Multiple Reinforcement to increase Conversions

Filed under: Use Multiple Reinforcement to increase Conversions, Web Design — Baytech Web Design @ 12:44 am

Many Websites today are actually limiting the number of conversions that they receive because they do not understand the possibilities. Generally, their Web design strategy only tries to get leads or purchases from a landing page.

One approach to solve this is to realize that many pages should lead to get people to buy – or give an email address – and that each Web page can use language that will cause people to have to make multiple decisions per page. The key is to present similar ideas in different language. It should also do it in a way that when it is all put together it should lead to a decision – time and again.

This idea can be used throughout your Website design. Even pictures should help people to understand that having your product or service will make them happy – everything provides a positive reinforcement. That also encourages people to make the right decision.

Phrases that ask for information can also be worded in such a way as to reinforce the decision to buy. Make it a positive experience to buy from you and expect results. Instead of just asking for an email, say something like: “Please send us your email address and information so that we can rush … to your door…” As you can see, it creates a want-to in the person – not a pep talk.

Baytech Web Design is ready to give you a solid E-commerce Web design that works. We have a proven team of design and SEO experts that can move your company to become the competitor you want to be. Contact us today for details.

Keep Testing for Maximum Webpage Performance

Filed under: Keep Testing for Maximum Webpage Performance, Web Design — Baytech Web Design @ 11:38 pm

Optimizing your Web pages may only require one or two small changes. Even the changing of only one word can sometimes greatly enhance your CTR.

This means that your testing needs to continue for some time and that it needs to be thorough. Not only should you change the wording on your ads, but also the spacing, the section order and arrangements, the headings, and even the graphics.

It really is a good idea not to take anything for granted – unless you had previously verified it through other tests. Website structure should also be tested for simplicity. Instead of listing all of the features or benefits of your product or service, you may want to make your Webpages more user friendly by simply listing the key ones – just so your page is more easily readable and has more white space. Being crowded is apt to scare people away – giving you undesired results.

Another turnoff is using fonts that are too small. Make it readable – not like legal documents where lawyers try to hide things hoping people won’t read them. Let your Website design speak of transparency and friendliness and you can see the results you want.

Use Search to Strengthen Offline Branding Techniques

Filed under: Branding, Design & Branding, Use Search to Strengthen Offline Branding Techniques — Baytech Web Design @ 3:25 pm

More and more people are performing searches online in order to learn more about various companies and the products they see advertised through some offline medium. They often go from things that they see offline and then proceed to investigate it online. This should provide you with some powerful reasons why you want to combine both online and offline marketing methods.

Your company’s brand recognition can be strengthened by all methods, and you can find a powerful ally in using offline methods as well as online ones. While many companies are now focusing largely on Web branding, you don’t want to make the mistake of leaving a proven method out – when it may be just what your branding strategies need.

Another very important factor is how people perceive the SERP results. Many believe that there is a direct connection between the importance and power of your company with the ranking in the SERP’s. Although this is certainly not true – it is something that you will want to work on as part of your corporate identity. If your company is only found on page five or six – you definitely have a credibility and visibility problem.

Working with online and offline marketing methods to establish your brand is essential. Build them in such a way that one reinforces the other. Don’t limit yourself to using one method only when both working together will create a much stronger brand – and more sales.

Baytech Web Design is ready to help you build a strong Internet presence. With more competition, you need proven and powerful branding techniques that work. Let us help you today.
