Introduction
Welcome to Digital Delirium website. I been really busy lately doing a lot of proposals for new clients, which is very exciting. There is an unfortunate common problem with these potential clients. The majority of these owners have had sites developed for them but the owners have found that it almost impossible for them to do any day to day updating. It is so important that new content is placed on the site. The more regularly this is done, the better. Just updating your site once a month will enormously help with your sites placement on the leading search engines like Google.
Google and the other search engines like Yahoo or MSN just love new, regular, updated content. So, what do I find in connection to updating with these possible new clients websites? I find most of sites have not been updated for six months or longer. What is the main reason why this important and expensive promotional tool (the business website) is left in this sorry condition? The main reason is that it’s so hard for the owners/administrators just to put a little bit of new text on the home page without them having to call the designer/developer and paying $80 per hour for a little bit of updating.
It doesn’t have to be like this. There are affordable technologies that allow owners/administrators of websites without a deep understanding of web technologies to quickly and easily update their site.
Two products that I highly recommend to clients are
Adobe Contribute
Joomla.org
Both these product are quite reasonably priced at below $200 and allow the non-technical individual to easily update their websites
Why do I need a web site?
1. Sell your stuff- (or more of your stuff) you can increases market penetration for goods or services to a world-wide market, rather than the traditional 5km radius of your physical location.
2. Persuade -a web site can be a great way to position your business in the best possible light. Convince prospects just looking that your goods and/or services meet their needs.
3. Inform- a web site can be a fantastic source of information for visitors.
4. Generate well-qualified leads a visitor searching for information might happily sign up for a newsletter sent from your site. What a fabulous way for you establish credibility and position you as expert and experience. And trustworthy to (a major issue on web sites).
5 Workload of personnel- i.e. customer service staff.
6. More efficiently- deal with orders/bookings/etc.
7.. Build brand awareness- a quality site reflects very positively on the branding of your business.
8. Advertise/promote- your business a site could be a tremendous way to make others aware for the first time of your business.
Life has changed quite a bit for me recently. I have moved to North America to Reno, Nevada near the famous Lake Tahoe, USA. I also recently married to my lovely wife, Eileen.
