Top Five Questions To Ask Your Web Designer Before You Part With Any Money.

Here at the Internet Business School, we’re committed to making sure your business stays ahead of the competition with the latest in Internet Marketing techniques. Having an up to date WordPress website is an essential way to keep your online traffic flowing. There are many designers and web design companies out there, but how do you choose which is right for you? Here are the top five questions to consider when you outsource WordPress website creation.

 

What is included in your website packages?

This is a no-brainer. You will want to know what you’ll get for the money you’re paying. If there’s any tech terminology you don’t understand, make sure to ask. When you approach a designer for website creation make sure you have a list of what you want out of your website so you can check and compare. Things you might want to check for include: aftercare, search engine optimisation and links to social media.

 

How do you calculate the cost of your websites? Do you charge by the hour or by the page?

Whilst it may not be the best idea to start off the discussion with finance, you should establish early on how much you will be paying and how often. Different designers charge their customers in different ways so make sure you know to see if the method suits you.

 

Can I edit the website myself?

It’s important to keep your web content up to date so you’ll need to know whether you can do this yourself, or if you have to keep paying the designer to do so. Ideally you’d be able to add and edit content yourself, giving you maximum flexibility over your own website.

 

Do you use templates for website designs or do you custom build them from scratch?

How unique do you want your website to be? Some designers use ‘out-the-box’ templates that can then be customised and altered. Others will build your website from scratch, presenting more opportunities for creativity. You have to consider the uniqueness of your site versus how soon you need it. A templated site may take less time to produce whilst a custom site will certainly be more unique to your business..

 

What do I have to supply?

Normally you will have the supply the content for your website, the designer will make a frame for you and then put that content in.  Make sure to ask exactly what they are expecting you to provide so you don’t end up with uncompleted website or delayed completion when you have to find everything they need.

 

If you’re saying ‘I Want To do This Myself – But I Need Help’, we’ve got just the course for you.

Pinterest – What’s the Point?

Delivering the latest internet marketing trends to small businesses has always been the Internet Business School’s greatest passion. Our online internet marketing courses aim to bring you up to date with the great platforms out there for massively expanding your business. Recently our attention has been gripped by the World’s Catalogue of Ideas – Pinterest. Today we’re going to share what’s got us so excited. Why should you be using Pinterest for business?

 

150 Million Users a Month.

In 2013, Pinterest had 70 million users and now that has more than doubled in only four years! The number of people who use Pinterest worldwide is simply astounding, and it hasn’t stopped growing. Every day more and more people sign up, meaning the audience your business could reach on Pinterest is ever-expanding.

 

Your Products, Their Catalogue.

Pinterest allows its users to create their own personalised catalogue of anything and everything that takes their fancy.  This collection style of social media is unique to Pinterest. Each photo or video a user adds to their collection contains a link to the website selling the product or service pictured. These links drive traffic back to company websites. Start posting pictures of your products and services with links and traffic will flow towards your business!

 

The Power of Pictures.

A picture is worth a thousand words, especially on the internet. People are impatient when searching the internet and will click away if they don’t immediately see what they want. Yet it takes only moment to see a dozen pictures, giving those who post on Pinterest a distinct advantage. Would you rather read a chunk of text or look at a few beautiful pictures? What would make you want to buy something more? Pinterest is a platform full of pictures, perfect for the busy customer who only has a little time to find what they want.

 

Customer Interaction Made Easy

Pinterest makes customer interaction incredibly easy. Once again, people prefer pictures and they love spending less time on something. So when it comes to testimonials and feedback, people are more likely to share pictures of themselves enjoying your product rather than write out a review. This is perfect for Pinterest where everything is image-based. Not only that, you can invite others to post on your Pinterest, allowing for competitions, feedback and a whole wealth of other customer interaction. Engaged customers are happy customers who are likely to spend more!

The Do’s and Don’t’s of Instagram for Business

Here at the Internet Business School, we’re committed to delivering the latest trends in internet marketing to hardworking businesses. Recently we’ve been keeping our eye on Instagram, not just for the great pictures, but because the second largest social media platform in the world is perfect for promoting businesses. So how can you use Instagram for business? Well it couldn’t be simpler. Get your smartphone ready. Here are our dos and don’ts for making the most of Instagram for business.

Do

  • Post pictures of your business headquarters and staff. Customers like to see the people behind a business.
  • Create a story with your pictures. Show the process of how your product is made or how your services progress.
  • Keep your photos on topic. This shows an organised and professional brand.
  • Look for key figures in your industry and see who is following them. Interact with their followers by liking their posts and leaving comments.
  • Interact with your audience. Follow them back, like their posts and write comments to show that you are willing to engage with your customers.

 

Don’t

  • Set up Instagram on your computer and forget about the app. Most of Instagram’s features are only on your smartphone!
  • Spam your followers. You only need to post once or twice per day. Any more than that and you’ll bog down your followers and they’ll unfollow.
  • Overuse filters and sparkly effects. Too much altering makes your photos look unprofessional and more like an array of personal snaps..
  • Forget to link your Instagram to other social media platforms such as Facebook. You can then cross-post your images, meaning you can get two posts for the effort of one.

Want to know more about how using Instagram for business? Curious about where to get started?

Five Reasons Why You Should Create an Ebay Business

Teaching people to make money online has always been the number one priority here at the Internet Business School. We’re always looking for quick and easy ways for you to make money using the latest internet marketing trends. We don’t think it really gets easier than opening up your own eBay store, but sometimes knowing where to start is the greatest hurdle for new businesses. That’s why we’ve created an online eBay Marketing course, but first, why should you be using eBay in the first place?

1) Your Own Personal Store
When you create a store on Ebay you get your own unique URL just for displaying your products, allowing customers to find you directly. Also, with only a little knowledge of HTML you can create a store that looks and feels completely unique, personalised for your business and its needs.

 

2) Cheap to List

It costs a maximum of 20p to list an item in an eBay Shop, and only 1p in their premium Anchor stores. This means you can list hundreds of products for sale with only a tiny charge compared to other online retailers.

 

3) Easy to Maintain

You don’t need to keep relisting your items as you can set them to automatically relist for as many days as you want them to. Your products will be available for sale constantly until they are removed by you. You can also set up your own promotions and sales with ease, your promoted items automatically appearing in the promotion section of your store design.

 

4) Product Reviews

Buyers can leave reviews on the sales pages of each of your products. This enables potential new buyers to see the recommendations of others, which could persuade them in turn to buy. Sellers on eBay can also be rated, letting your customers know you are a trustworthy source of whatever they’re looking for.

 

5) Extra Tools

You can use your store to create additional material for promoting your eBay store. Ebay provides the tools to create email marketing campaigns for your buyers, an ecommerce site linked to your eBay account, and templates for business cards and flyers.

Why Go Mobile? What Mobile Marketing Can Do For Your Business.

Here at the Internet Business School, we’re passionate about making sure businesses are making the most of the latest internet marketing trends. We’ve noticed that despite the fact we’re all constantly checking our phones, some people haven’t realised that we should be putting our businesses on there too! Having great mobile marketing is essential for great business growth and that could start with a great mobile marketing course. Here are our top four reasons why you should go mobile.

 

– Anytime, anywhere

Browsing and shopping on mobile phones is the perfect way to fit buyers’ needs around a busy lifestyle. The ability to shop wherever there’s internet means that people are shopping anywhere at any time. If your business doesn’t have a mobile presence it is missing out on all these customers who are buying on the go. Reach your customers wherever they are and whatever they’re doing by having a mobile site, or even an app, that they can use whilst moving about.

 

– Quick and simple access

When we check our phones it’s often a quick glance, or a quick search to find out what we’re after. Often people use search engines on their phone to look up something up fast. Whilst your site can still be found by these search engines, a website not adapted to work on mobile will be a lot slower to load than one that is. This does not suit to the fast click-happy mobile user, who wants the information they need immediately. They’ll leave your site immediately and look for a faster one if you haven’t adapted it for mobile.

 

– Maximise Engagement

Just like any form of marketing, an engaged customer is a customer who will buy more. Mobile devices open up a new way for customers to engage with your business, especially with the use of apps. Many businesses create apps that coincide with their business – for example money tracking apps, small games or meal planners. These apps are often free, giving the customer something as a reward for their loyalty. These apps can also be used on the go, and often are built to be integrated into the customers’ lifestyle, making sure the business involved is always present in their customers’ lives.

 

– Sharing Potential

Word of mouth is a powerful marketing tool and people are constantly sharing their views on social media. Social Media dominates people’s smartphone usage and linking your content to social media will only make it easier for people to refer others to your business. This is possible on mobile, once again, anytime and anywhere. Let people advertise for you by giving them access to a fast mobile site they can share.

 

Are you ready to go mobile? Want to find out how you can adapt your current site for mobile use, or even create yourself an app? It’s easy! All of this and more can be found as part of the online Mobile Marketing course, created here at the Internet Business School. There’s everything you need to create professional mobile marketing for your business. Have any questions about the course? Ask us at https://internetbusinessschool.co.uk/contact-us/ We’d be happy to hear from you!

Top Five Tips for Search Engine Optimisation

Making sure small businesses get the edge over their competitors has always been one of the Internet Business School’s greatest aims. That’s why we’ve produced many professional internet marketing courses over the years, and stayed up to date with all the latest internet marketing trends. Throughout our years of experience, we’ve noticed that some businesses simply aren’t making the most of SEO – also known as search engine optimisation. This is what determines how far up search rankings a website will be displayed. When seventy percent of customers click on the top three sites listed, it’s never been more important to please Google and boost your site skywards. Here are five things you should consider when optimising your site for Google.

– Research is key

Before you start filling up your site, make sure to research not only the keywords you should be using, but also the keywords your competitors are using. There are many tools out there to do this, from Google Adwords to premium sites that can rank you in comparison to your competitors. Make sure to find out how many people actually do search the keywords you’re aiming for. Sometimes a simple Google search is enough to see how you compare with your rivals.

 

– Create rather than alter

Google awards businesses who are actively creating new content for their sites with higher rankings. Whilst it is advisable to optimise the pre-existing content on your blog, make sure you add new optimised content to your site as well. This could be in the form of blog posts, articles, testimonials, how-to guides, the limit is your imagination.

 

– Quality over Quantity

When it comes to this new content, don’t be tempted to just spam your website with the relevant keywords. Creating a page just filled with keywords for no other purpose than boosting your search engine rankings is deemed bad practice and can even get your site taken down from Google. Even if you only post new content once or twice a week, make sure it is meaningful as well as optimised. That’s why it’s better to write blogs, articles or guides for your customers as it boosts your ranking and provides a service.

 

– Make use of your titles and images.

Remember to include your keywords in the titles and headers of your content. This signifies not only to the reader but to Google, the importance of that keyword to the page. When you upload images, remember to add your keywords to not only the title of the image, but also the alt. Text as Google also reads these. Adding keywords to your images also helps if a customer is searching on Google Images as an image with keywords is more likely to show up there.

 

– Reputable links

Having your site linked to from reputable sources give it prestige and boosts it up the rankings. Creating links couldn’t be easier. If your products have been reviewed by another site, be they a news site, a blogger, or industry page, ask them to include a link to your page. Social media also counts so make sure to link your website to your social media pages and visa versa.

 

Want to find out more about how you can boost your site up Google’s rankings?  Fancy increasing the free traffic to your site? Well look no further than the Search Engine Optimisation course from the Internet Business School taught by Europe’s number one Digital Marketing Author and SEO Expert, Tim Cameron-Kitchen.

The Importance of Listening to Others

“I did the 3-day marketing course in 2010 after seeing Simon speaking in a seminar. He blew my mind. If he could teach me so much in an hour, what could he teach me in three days?”

Going it alone doesn’t mean isolating yourself from the world of business, as Alex Buxton learned as soon as they stepped into the Internet Business School classroom. The best way to learn is from the experts who have already accomplished what you’re trying to do.  Even if they aren’t in your exact industry, their internet marketing techniques and the skills they use, are more often than not applicable to your own marketing needs.  Yet it isn’t only the experts you should be listening to when it comes to business ideas.

In his Amazon bestseller, Interpreneur, The Secrets of My Journey To Becoming An Interpreneur, Simon Coulson says:

“LISTEN to what your friends and family are talking about – if they are interested in a topic or there is a buzz around a certain subject, maybe that is a market worth exploring”

Great ideas can come from the most likely and unlikely of places! Listen to your friends and family, often they will have ideas that you can combine with your business know-how to transform into profit. If they have a business idea, make sure to ask whether it’s ok for you to use it or whether they want to collaborate. Otherwise, if it is something you just hear in passing conversation, you can use it for yourself.

The Dos and Don’ts of Facebook Marketing

Here at the Internet Business School, we’re devoted to bringing the latest internet marketing trends to businesses everywhere. We’ve made sure to stay up to date on all the tips and tricks businesses can use to beat their competitors, especially on the world’s most popular social media platform – Facebook. When creating our great Facebook marketing courses, we couldn’t help but notice there are still people who haven’t quite grasped how to make the most of Facebook and its huge audience. That’s why we’ve produced our dos and don’ts of Facebook marketing.

 

Do

Fill in all of the About section – The About section provides two purposes that are both essential for businesses. Not only does the About section provide all the information customers need to know about your business, it is also essential for your Facebook page’s search engine rankings. Remember to include relevant keywords in your About section so your Facebook page appears higher on Google’s search rankings.

Post regularly – Though the best times and days may differ depending on your intended audience, it’s important to be consistent with when and how often you post. This not only projects the image of an organised brand but also allows customers to know when to expect to hear new information from you.

Make the Most of Facebook Analytics –  Facebook Analytics allows you to everything from when your target audience is online to which of your posts has had the best reception. This enables you to tailor your content towards what suits your potential customers best. Make sure you’re posting what they like at the times that suit them best to maximum attention for your business.

React to Events and Occasions – Show that your business is attentive to the world around you by tailoring your posts to react to current news and events. Be careful not be insensitive to the troubles of others but if a new trend or fad has made the news, comment on it, or perhaps include some political satire. Also make sure to produce seasonal posts at the right time of year.

 

Don’t

Forget about your Header Image – Header images are perfect, not only for displaying your branding, but also for keeping your customers up to date on your latest products, events or offers. Produce new header images to draw your customers attention towards what you wish to promote

Leave Your Customers Waiting – Your Facebook page should be full of calls to action (‘call now’, ‘subscribe now’, ‘call us’) but if someone does contact you over social media with a question, make sure to answer it quickly. Communicating over Facebook is fast and customers expect a fast response, receiving an answer during the same day at the very least. Not replying to a customer usually means losing that customer so it pays to be attentive to who’s talking to you.

Over-post – Just like on any social media platform, no one likes being spammed with unnecessary content. Keep you posting concise, on topic, and post only at the best moments (which you can find out through Analytics). Quality is better than quantity when it comes to using social media to promote a business.

Stay apart from the Rest –  Interaction is the most important form of engagement on social media. You can interact with customers and other business through a whole range of different methods. Tagging someone who reviewed your product, or another business you’ve worked with, is a great way to make them feel included. Hosting competitions, posting Facebook-exclusive offers and following back people who follow your business are also great ways to engage with potential customers.

 

Want to find out how you can use Facebook to reach hundreds, if not thousands of potential customers? Still wondering how you can make the most of this amazing platform? Look no further than the Internet Business School’s online Facebook Marketing courses. We’ll take you from the very basics of using the platform to the tips and tricks used by big businesses to get customers spending, all from the comfort of your own home.
