INTRODUCTIONWhat is Strategic Web Presence Planning and

How Does it Work? Considering the increasingly more business

opportunities on the Internet and the new technologies of communication, it is essential for any company to be represented online.

Any serious business man understands the Internet as a dynamic media tool.

Having a website proves that your company is open towards future, that you accept the change and you are ready for any challenge, without being afraid of the competition.

Online branding involves the user's experience in contact with the online presence of a brand.


This experience is determined by three categories of activity:

Creating the online presence (the development strategy, choosing a domain name, the graphic appearance design, information structure, conceiving the content, functionality, errors management,etc);

To maintain and develop further the online presence (website's update, public relations management, traffic reports analysis);

To develop online promotions (search engine optimization, banners campaign, email marketing, viral marketing).


INTRODUCTION- C.T.D

Attracting visitors to the Web site

Making the site interesting enough that visitors stay and explore

Convincing visitors to follow the site’s links to obtain information

Creating an impression consistent with the organization’s desired image

Building a trusting relationship with visitors

Reinforcing positive images that the visitor might already have about the organization

Encouraging visitors to return to the site


OBJECTIVES OF THE BUSINESS

3 essential types of information that you need when it’s time to refine or create your website (or blog).

It doesn’t matter if you are a solo-entrepreneur or the lead on a large website—the fundamentals and process apply. You have to know:

1. What does your organization want from a web presence?

Knowing your goals, expectations, and what you’re trying to accomplish is mandatory. There are often many different (and conflicting) agendas in organizations. It’s important to take the time to reach an agreement about just what the organization wants to accomplish with a website. SPEEDLINK EXPRESS TECHNOLOGIES....

STRATEGY

2. Your target audience groups. Who is your website (or blog) for? Hint, it’s not

for you. It’s always for your audience. Resist the temptation to focus on how great your organization is.

Focus on being the solution for your audience’s problems—the answer to their questions or challenges. What do you want to say to your audiences?

How are you going to get your content out to them? What role can social networking play? How can you get your content to your target audience folks wherever they already hang out on the Web?


STRATEGY-C.T.D

3. Your organization’s web competition and market.

Are you familiar with the market and your competition? If not, it’s time to get acquainted. Take a spin around the Web every three months or so to see what other people in your field are doing.

What are they doing well and how can you do some of it better?


STRATEGY-C.T.D

If you’re looking to redesign your organization’s

website, you need toassess your current

site in terms of:SPEEDLINK EXPRESS TECHNOLOGIES....

Usability. Is it easy to find information? Is it

easy to navigate? Do your users get so frustrated they just leave?

Functionality. Does your website work as

intended? Does search return reasonable results—could it be improved? Do

all the links work?SPEEDLINK EXPRESS TECHNOLOGIES....

But what are the benefits of

developing a strategic web

presence planning?

FACTS ABOUT WEBSITE A website doesn't inform the audience about

your business, the content does it. A website doesn't communicate with the clients of a company; the emails sent by employees do this.

A website doesn't bring increased value to customers; the online services offered by the company do it.

A web site does not allow companies to benefit from the extraordinary power of the Internet; this can be achieved only when the web presence was established strategically.
