A Warning on Duplicate Content

e. Frequently updated Content

e. Frequently updated content

Why?

Search engine ranking is determined by:– Importance– Relevance

Regularly updated content shows that your site is:– Important – someone thinks it is important enough to keep adding to

and updating it– Relevant – it is much less likely to be out of date, and much more

likely to be still relevant if it was updated recently. We have also discussed keeping content updated with the right keywords.

Grab More Attention

• Attention Relevant to Keywords• News articles

– Especially with thumbnails, relevant and regularly changing

• Offers and promotions• Fresh design• Simple, straight forward navigation• Clear titles and sub-sections• Compare different pages and layouts

Generate More Registrations

Generate More Registrations

Ensure completed registration form– Further testimonials– Re-enforce reason to register (demo, whitepaper -

quality, content, value etc.)– Reduce fields?– Split into two halves?– Colour / images?– Avoid distraction of other offers/promotions/news

etc.Compare/Contrast registration Pages

Log and Distribute Leads

• Simple?– Could leads get lost?– Do they go to the right sales person?– How quickly does a customer get a response?– Can you analyse leads afterwards?

• Ensure quality and consistency– Daily / hourly process for checking new leads– Visual qualification to sift out junk– Decide who / how best to action each lead– Capture & pass out all details from registration

Ensure Lead Follow-up

• Ensure your valuable leads are acted upon– Once passed to sales, what happens?– Have clear steps/stages that define progress– Create a process that allows for nurturing

(not all leads will be immediate/hot)– Is a dead lead really dead?

• Can we analyse how far a lead gets?– At what point lead is rejected?– Why leads are rejected?

Progress & Close the Sale

communication to create confidence to buy
