WHY YOU NEED A STRONG WEB PRESENCE
When was the last time you searched for something online? Probably when you arrived at this web page, right? But consider about how much you look for anything on Google. The average person searches Google, also known as a search index, multiple times a day while looking for quick information on how to fix their daily problems. Rarely do clients go beyond the first page of results and that is why a strong web presence is needed and not just a basic website.
Having that strong presence is also known as ranking your website. This simply means that people will see your website at the top of the search engines. Clients tend to trust these top-ranking businesses more and use these businesses more than the average company which is why you need a well-rounded website.
If you are a small business owner, then you are familiar with being the underdog. There are businesses out there that dominate the presence on Google for people looking for your someone in your industry. They dominate by working with a digital marketing agency. These are large companies focused on using established strategies in helping their clients get to the top of the search results. We are here to help you rise to the top, as well, while maintaining an affordable website ecosystem.

Website DesignThe design of your company’s website is critical in capturing the attention of your audience. The process to create the right design can be broken down into three parts:
What goes into your total online presence is based on each client's circumstances. For example, you might need to rebrand yourself to offer a modern appearance to the public because you have not updated your current website in years. This branding includes logos, marketing materials, signage, social media integration, and more. We can do all of this for you. If you’re happy with your current outward appearance, then you will now need to create the website content. This is the description of the services you are trying to offer your clients. This content must be clear, concise, and it often requires many revisions. We can do this, as well. Then, you need to marry these two goals into a website that keeps people visiting your site interested as well as leaves them feeling informed. Most of all, you need them to contact you to secure your services. Isn’t that really why a website exists anyway? More business is the name of the game. Finally, you need to optimize your web page to be seen by as many people within your target audience. There are many ways to go about this such as ranking high in online search engine results and advertising on social media. We will help you figure out the best path for your business with clear goals to measure your progression. More than anything, though, remember this ... custom content is critical in getting your site to rank on the search indexes where people are looking for you. Looking good will make them stay, but knowing what to say and how to say it will make them more likely to buy from you. |
Content precedes design. Design in the absence of content is not design, it’s decoration."

Website BuildingBuilding your website takes into account your action plan based on your target audience, your company's desired appearance, the goals of your site, and many more factors. We offer tailored services to building and hosting websites that start with a simple template and move up to a more complex custom built website. Most companies can fit into the website template option which means it's easy to operate and update while keeping your costs lower.
But, what if you want to build your own website? Many of our clients are D-I-Y'ers and we couldn’t be happier for them. These days, many companies use website templates from services such as Wix and Squarespace. These are viable options for the small business owner albeit there is some hard work that goes into this option that most people don't consider. Some of the benefits of building your own website include you having the freedom to add or amend content at anytime. Got a new service you offer or a new phone number to put out there? What about new employees that you want to add to your site? Maybe a new product that you want to highlight or put on sale? When you manage your content you save money and time by avoiding a lengthy process of back and forth emails and phone calls with your website management company. If you are long on time, then this is a great fit for you. Clients that fit the mold of a D-I-Y website builder are also looking into:
You can pick from our services in an a la carte fashion where you can do the heavy lifting and have Edwin Marie provide:
We will be there to fill in the gaps for tasks you can't or just don't want to spend time on. Either way, we want to make sure that you are getting exactly what you want and that you can handle the workload that comes with your chosen path. |

On a broad scale, I see SEO becoming a normalized marketing tactic, the same way TV, radio, and print are traditionally thought of as marketing tactics."

WHAT IS SEO?SEO is short for search engine optimization. This is when you a site is structured in a way so that your clients can see your website close to the top of the results of an online search engine, such as Google, Bing, or Yahoo. These search engines are there to make finding your business easy for your clients. Instead of asking a friend or looking through the yellow pages, they can simply type in what they want and the results pop up instantly. We all use it because it is easy.
An optimized website is critical in the long-term of your website construction. A good looking site is of no use if no one can find it. If you are looking for the best SEO, we recommend leaving it to the professionals. We offer our in-depth knowledge of the online marketing arena, but we do NOT guarantee specific placement within search engine results. You should avoid companies that do offer such guarantees. What we do guarantee is that we will work with you to rank your company at the highest level possible. There are other great local companies out there like Edwin Marie which offer similar services. Some of our recommendations include Simply Web Services, Flair Communication, and Websites for Anything. All of these companies are reputable and very good at their jobs. |
HOW MUCH DOES A WEBSITE COST TO BUILD?

The short answer to these questions is ... it depends, but we will make it work within your budget. I know that's not the definitive answer most people want, but it's the same answer almost every profession gives, right? What does a plumber, mechanic, doctor, or any service cost? It depends.
