Internet Marketing
What is SEO?
Search Engine Optimisation. It is the term used for making sure that a website is “search engine friendly”. Some websites will never be seen because they do not come up high enough in search engine results. The purpose of SEO is to increase a site’s position in relevant search results. Proper internet marketing however goes beyond pure SEO and finds all available solutions to help your site succeed on the internet.
Why is the optimisation package a 12 month contract?

The process is a long one and, with some search engines and directories, extremely slow. It involves research and a lot of hours just to do the manual listings, as well as ongoing tweaking, refining and additions. In some cases you will see almost immediate results, but in others it can take months. Google is a good case in point, where changes can take up to 6 months to register. It has even been known to take longer in some cases.

This is particularly true on new websites.

The 6 month contract is in fact the shortest feasible contract to ensure that you get the results and that we have a chance to do the job properly.

The other side to this is that there are certain aspects to internet marketing that are ongoing. The 12 month contract gives you a solid boost in terms of those elements, for example, the acquisition of quality links.

Why have a paid listing if I can get free listings?
Most listings are free and we use every relevant free opportunity that we find. Some of the paying ones are however worth paying for because of the visibility and exposure they will give you. With others, the paid listing is much quicker and guarantees a listing while their free listing is pot-luck. This does not however mean that all paid listings are good. Some are just on the band wagon and, while they may appear to be worthwhile, aren’t. Others are way over-priced and the cost is not justified. In each case it is an individual, strategic decision whether or not to go for a paid option and we will advise accordingly.
Which search engines do you optimise for?
It depends on where you are based and what your website is promoting. Generally our first call is Google and, no matter what, we take Google into account and apply the Google guidelines, but there is no absolute formula. In the end we try to optimise for all search engines, but slanted towards those which stand to bring you the most business. Contrary to popular belief, this is not always the top three (Google, MSN, Yahoo). There are instances where it may be better to settle for a lower Google ranking in order to focus on a smaller search engine or directory that is more geared to your target market and more accommodating of your site. We try to take a broader approach and do what will make a real difference for you in the longer term.
What does SEO involve?
Proper search engine optimisation involves a number of variables and the subject is complex enough for hundreds of books and forums to have been created in its honour. In a nutshell, it involves making sure that your site does the things that search engines respond well to. This means having the right site design, layout and content, META tags, title tags and linking. There are numerous other issues that come into it and various techniques that can be used, some of which are potentially harmful to a site in the longer term. At ADvantage we aim for the best sustainable results, without taking risks that could get you banned from the search engines.
We have seen those same adverts and it is amazing that anyone finds them believable. Why?
- Well, imagine if they have 20 clients who all have furniture stores in the same neighbourhood, selling the same basic product. How can all of them be in the top 10? Now imagine that there are 20 SEO’s, each with 10 furniture companies as clients and each as skilled as the next. That makes 200 websites that are all being promised a top 10 listing.SEO’s that make that kind of promise may be able to deliver on their promise for a week or a month, often by using strategies that are harmful in the longer term, but the results - if they are ever achieved - are not sustainable.The other thing to watch for in the adverts is the key phrase "for your search term" and these same SEO companies will often prove to you how their search term comes up tops in the search engines. The critical issue is ... what is the search term? I can easily get to number one on Google for the search term “purple mangled turnips”, or “5-inch diametric socket wrench” (whatever that may be). Unless you achieve a good position for a relevant search term that people are actually using, the optimisation is a farce.
I saw an advert of an optimisation company and they promise they will get any website in the top 10 in all search results. Do you promise the same?
Absolutely not. That is a deceptive promise and we do not make promises that we cannot keep to the letter. Search engines are dynamic and every time a new website goes up, it influences the structure of the search engine results. Every time someone optimises a site, the same thing happens. By the very nature of the internet and search engines, that kind of promise must come with conditions attached.

I read that it is not true that SEO cannot make guarantees. How come you say the opposite?
We've read the same articles and in a sense they are correct. An SEO organisation can in fact make certain guarantees, but the best sounding guarantees are not straight forward. Look for the "if" because that is the key. Also look for what is NOT said.

For example: I can guarantee a top listing for a highly unlikely search term because not many sites will be competing for it.
I can guarantee a top listing for almost any search term, as long as you don't mind how long you wait, how much you pay or how long you're in that top position. I can guarantee a top listing on a search engine if you give me an ideal budget to buy your site into position. I can guarantee a top listing if your search term is not a highly competitive one.
I can guarantee a top listing on a hundred search engines - but they may not be the ones that people actually use. I can guarantee a top listing for any site with any search term if I am prepared to use tactics that can get your site banned from the most important search engines.
Do you use pay per click advertising?

Very seldom, if ever. We always work from the premise of "why pay if you don't have to?" and this applies very much to ppc, which is not only expensive (don't believe the claims to the contrary) but most times really not necessary.

If your site is properly optimised and marketed you should be able to draw good generic (natural) traffic.

If you are in a highly competitive market and your site is too small or too new to do well as quickly as you would like it to and you are happy to accept the cons, then by all means we will assist you in identifying the best ppc programmes and managing them. If you are looking at ppc, please chat to us first and let us help you to assess if this is the best option for you before you spend your hard-earned cash..

Do you submit to hundreds of search engines and resubmit every month?

here are many myths about search engines and directories, created and spread by individuals and companies who are preying on those who don't know better. This question relates to one such myth.

There are only a handful of search engines and directories - 10 max - that have any value at all. Most legitimate small directories draw off these and do not need to be submitted to. Many smaller search engines and directories are no more than link farms - something that can hurt you with the serious search engines. Many others are simply small one-man bands that are barely used by anyone.

As for resubmitting, there is no need. Once a search engine has found you, it has found you and will keep coming back. More important, resubmission can annoy the important search engines and directories and get your site removed altogether.

We submit to very few search engines and directories and, with the remainder of the important ones, use different methods to get your site indexed.

Finally, just in case someone is wondering, we also do not do any automated submissions. Once again these target fairly useless engines and upset the important ones.
 

Do I have to host with ADvantage for you to market me?

No you don’t, but if we have to choose between potential clients who do and potential clients who don't, we would opt for those who do. The reason for this is because we know exactly what we can do with our hosting and we have extensive statistical software on our servers. This allows us to properly monitor our results to ensure we meet the agreed objectives for your site. If you would rather remain with your current hosting company, we respect your loyalty towards them, but would not be able to accept you as a marketing client unless we at least had full access to your site, your current host provides good stats that are updated daily and which we can access at will and nobody else works on the site for the duration of the contract.

There is also another scenario. At times we are approached by clients who in fact have no idea how the site is currently performing. In a situation like that we would recommend hosting with us for 3 months before embarking on any marketing programme. By monitoring and assessing the site for the client in this period we may find that the expense of a marketing programme is in fact not needed or at least not the best first option. Sometimes it can be something quite unexpected and relatively easy to resolve that has been causing a site not to perform up to scratch.

Why spend money if you don't have to?

Why do you call it an optimisation and marketing package?
Because there are two aspects to the process. We do not believe that optimisation on its own is enough for properly marketing a website. Anyone who knows anything about search engines will tell you that links and listings are just as important as what is done within your site. Secondly, that, because of the nature of the internet, search engines are naturally fickle. This means that achieving a sustainable result needs more than just search engine optimisation.

The point of having a website is ultimately to get business off it. This means that your site must be seen and found in the right places to reach your target market. We are primarily concerned with websites that yield direct or indirect returns and the optimisation is, as far as we are concerned, merely one aspect of the marketing strategy employed to achieve that in the shortest possible time.
Web Hosting
What should I consider when choosing a hosting company?

Some of the more important considerations are:

Uptime is critical. They should guarantee at least 99% and the guarantee should not just be words. - Do they offer a money-back guarantee?
However - a word of caution: be careful of any guarantee of 100% uptime. This indicates that the host is either being deceptive or is not maintaining their servers properly and not doing essential upgrades. This places your site at risk because security and stability will become compromised, eventually leading to all sorts of potential problems (all placing your site at risk) and even a complete server crash.

Bandwidth is critical. - Do they have sufficient bandwidth to cope with the load? How many websites do they put on each physical server? A good host would ensure that there is always enough free server space and capacity.

Check that they offer enough space for your site and for reasonable future growth. For a small business site, this should be at least 5-10MB (megabytes). A 10 MB allowance on an average small site should offer sufficient room for quite a bit of future growth.

Check that they allow enough traffic. This is measured in megs or gigs. 1 gig is roughly equal to 100 000 hits. Each time someone visits your site, every image or script on a page is a hit. For a small business website 500MB is normally more than sufficient unless the site is offering software downloads, streaming, chat rooms, forums, large flash objects or other forms of interactivity that use up a lot of bandwidth.

If you want to use any scripts, check that your hosting company allows the specific script and that there is no additional charge attached. This includes any forms, auto responders, flash or special effects that you want to use on your site.

Email: you must get at least one email address linked to your website, that you can check through either your normal email programme (like Outlook Express) or on the web itself from anywhere in the world. One of the biggest advantages to having this facility (apart from looking professional) is that your email address belongs entirely to you for as long as you own the domain name. - This means that you can change hosts and connectivity providers in the future without any fear of losing your email address.

Support: can you contact them and get free basic support - including after hours? Are they available in an emergency? Do they actually give you quick and meaningful answers and/or solutions ? Do they bend over backwards to help you ?

Upgrades: can you upgrade your hosting package later without hassle or huge cost? You may not be thinking of changing your site right now, but who knows what you may decide in another month or 6 months time. Your hosting provider should offer packages that are flexible enough to accommodate this without disrupting your website or breaking the bank.

Hosting set-up: will they help you with getting set up (including email) and sorting out any difficulties you may have or are you just a number and a cheque at the end of the month? Find out the full extent of this support. It may be limited to the pure hosting side.

Statistics: do they supply statistics that are comprehensive enough for you to clearly track what is and is not working on your site? You cannot possibly know if your site is an effective marketing tool unless you can monitor the results. You need to know how many visitors you are getting and where they are coming from, what they are doing on your site and how much business your site is generating. - Stats help you to more accurately assess and improve on your investment.

Backups: do they do regular backups so that if their server does go down they can reload everything again immediately? - Please note that it is still your responsibility (personally or via your webmaster) to ensure that you have a full backup of your current site, but your host should at least be able to get a fairly recent version of your site back up and running if there is a server problem.

What do you mean when you talk about traffic?

Every time someone visits your site or sends an email to or from your website; every time you upload or download anything on your site, this is traffic. Any reliable hosting company will give you a traffic limit because this is how they ensure that their server does not get overloaded. - An overload will slow down your site’s loading and can even cause a complete server crash.

Hosting companies who offer unlimited traffic (bandwidth) are not being honest and should be approached with caution. Similarly, hosts that allow extremely high bandwidth at a low cost should also be eyed with caution because they are overselling. In other words, they are taking a gamble that you will not use what they are giving you anyway, so they inflate their packages to look more impressive. - This is like paying for a gallon of milk when you'll only drink a glass full.

While there is a good chance that you won't use everything in your package, the next 3 or 4 guys might and this will affect your site as well because they are on the same server.

How do I change hosting company?
If you were moving to ADvantage, we would initiate it all for you and guide you through the (very simple) part of the process in which you would most likely need to be involved. The only thing you need to do is ensure that you are paid up to date with your existing host and, as a matter of courtesy, we always recommend that you advise them (before we start the transfer process) that you are leaving them. If you do not know their cancellation policy, it would be a good idea to get this information from them before starting the transfer process so that there are no nasty surprises.
If I change hosting company, won’t my site go down?
Not if your existing host has a cancellation period and you upload your site to the new host immediately that your space is available with them. This provides a transitional period during which you in fact have a site up with both hosting companies. The moment that the cancellation (domain transfer) with the old host takes effect, the other site (and email facility) kicks in completely.
If I change my hosting company, won’t I lose my email address?
No. Not if your email address is linked to your domain name. If your hosting company and connectivity (internet service provider) are the same and your email is NOT linked to your domain, you would be able to keep your email address as long as you keep your connection with the same service provider, but this does not mean that you have to keep your hosting with them as well. We would advise that you speak to your service provider to make sure before doing anything. We are happy to do this for our clients.
Must I sign a contract for hosting a website with ADvantage?

Yes. Our hosting runs on 12 month basis because we are sure that you will be happy enough with us to want to stay.

However, from time to time we do offer special packages and these may be conditional on a contract, purely to ensure that the specials don't get abused. You will however never be tied to a contract with us without it being your conscious decision to do so.

Why do I have to pay for hosting if I am already paying an internet service provider?

A hosting company and an internet service provider are essentially two different things. A service provider is the company that gives you access to the internet. A hosting company gives the rest of the world permanent access to your website.

Some service providers do also offer website hosting, but these are essentially two separate services altogether.

Why do I need a hosting company?
Without a hosting company you will not have a website, except on the hard drive of your computer. Nobody will be able to reach it. To use an analogy: imagine that your website is a mobile studio. If it has nowhere to park, then it will have no phone lines, address or any means of being found. A hosting company is like the landlord for the ground on which you are parking your business, except that the ground in this case is in cyber space.
Why should I use (and pay) another hosting company when my service provider also gives me free space for a website?

There are advantages and disadvantages to both options: doing your hosting with your service provider or keeping it seperate. One consideration is obviously the cost. If the hosting is a free service, this will save you monthly hosting fees.

A downside is that you have all your eggs in one basket and can end up trapped, where the two services are so interconnected that you dare not change either later without it hurting your business.

A further possible downside is the bandwidth. This is how busy their server (main computer) is with all the activity going on.

A hosting company that does nothing but host is less busy than one that offers connectivity and hosting. - It is like the difference between having a freeway with just fast cars on it vs one that is loaded with large trucks as well. This can effect reliability and speed.

And some times keeping in mind the scripting support we might need to change the servers too.
What should I consider when choosing a hosting company?
Some of the more important considerations are: Uptime is critical. They should guarantee at least 99% and the guarantee should not just be words.
Can I use a hosting company in Guwahati if I am New Delhi?

Absolutely. You can in fact use a hosting company anywhere in the world and many people use hosting companies that are in a different country. As long as you have access to your host in case you have a problem, it is better to select the best hosting company rather than the closest.

Although we are in Guwahati, we provide hosting for various clients throughout India and internationally.

Design and Development
Can I manage my site myself?

Yes you can, by various means. If you have a basic knowledge of html and have an FTP programme, OR have a basic knowledge of MS Frontpage, OR just want to manage minor changes and are comfortable in MSWord (which our WYSIWYG site editing software emulates), OR you ask us to add a more advanced editor to your site.

We offer a hosting package that includes a wysiwyg editor which is very intuitive and will allow you to manage your website without any html or Frontpage knowledge at all.

For a nominal additional fee we can also add on our advanced editor, which is quicker and easier to use, can allow different people permission to edit different pages and site content and cannot break your site.

However, please note that if you opt for any form of self-management, this is entirely at your own risk. Please be sure to have a back-up of your site before you begin making any changes, in case something goes wrong. Although we do regular backups, this is in case of a server emergency and is not intended to be used to back up individual sites that have been accidentally wiped or corrupted.

This only applies to self-managed hosting options. If we are your webmaster (we manage your site for you) then we obviously do have up to date back-ups of your site.

Why don’t you like to do flash sites?
We actually do like to do them. They're great fun, but we don't do them because they are not good for your business. They are not search engine friendly. Nor are sites that use javascript drop-down menus, which we also avoid, along with a number of other design elements, like frames. With every site that we design, the end objective is in mind from the outset and that objective is for the site to contribute to your business. If poor design elements make your site unable to be found (or well ranked) by search engines, then this objective becomes impossible to attain.
Why do I need a website ? I don’t even own a computer.

You do not need a computer to be on the internet. It is the same as taking an advert in a newspaper that you never read. The advert is aimed at reaching your target market. A website is the same. It is not for your benefit, but for the express purpose of reaching that segment of your market who do have and use their computers to find things on the internet.

You would merely provide no email contact, but still give all other contact details. The number of people who are using the internet as a preferred resource is growing by the day and this is a sector of the market that you stand to lose if you do not have a website.

What’s the difference between web design and web development?
Web design is the process of creating a look and feel for a website. Web development looks beyond this to the functionality and is concerned with questions like: how user friendly is it? Does it serve its primary purpose? How good is the content? Does it draw and keep visitors? Does it evoke the required action? Is it search-engine friendly? Web design on its own can in fact be hugely detrimental to a site’s objectives. A good website takes many factors into consideration and not just the first impression or visual effect.
What is wrong with what you call a "conveyor-belt-site"?

The common name for this is a "template site" and there is nothing wrong with it if you are happy to have a site that is a standard with no real persona of its own and you don't mind if your site looks like various other sites on the internet.

Many people however prefer to have a unique site which encapsulates their essence and it just so happens that we pride ourselves on creating them. Many standard template sites however have nothing wrong with them.

Please do just consider that a website on its own is not enough. Even if you do decide to go for a template, which is generally much cheaper, it is worth paying a bit extra to ensure that they do at least customise it for you from an optimisation point of view.

I see that you show no examples of websites designed for my type of business. Isn’t it better for me to use someone who is in my industry?

With most businesses it does not matter because you as the client are providing the content for the site. A competent web developer would also know how to source material related to your site and get a feel for your business. It is better to have a good web developer rather than someone who shares your knowledge of your industry, but who may not give you the best website.

If however you are in a highly specialised field and want the web developer to do the bulk of the copy writing as well, then someone with knowledge of your business is obviously important. - Just remember what you are paying them for: to do what they do best so that you can do what you do best.

If you are not sure if we have an understanding of your particular business, please drop us an email or give us a call

I like your work, but how can I use you if I am in Mumbaiand you are in Guwahati?
This is the beauty of the internet. Roughly 40% of our clients have never met the person developing their website face to face. Between the telephone and email it is a simple process. If we need to run a visual concept past a client, the concept is uploaded to a private site on the internet where the client can see it, give feedback and, in many cases, even watch the changes being made while discussing it on the telephone.
I have very unique needs for my website. How do I know that you can meet them?
Unique - in all its possible forms - is our speciality. Why not give us a call? The one thing we hate is doing a bad job and if we have any doubts about being able to fully satisfy your needs, we will be the first to say so.
Can you do a draft of a website and if I like it I will use you?

Afraid not. Website development is different to hardcopy advertising, where the norm is that you start with a draft. Any draft that we could do would certainly not be one that would give you a realistic idea of what the end product would look like or how it would function. The internet is a very dynamic medium and the whole is a lot more than the sum of its parts. Each of our web sites are custom made. They are unique and created from scratch, so that by the time an effective draft had been created, you would in fact already have the end result.

Our past projects section should give you a good idea of whether or not you think we can meet your needs. - Please also read the next question and answer.

What if I don’t like the site you have designed?

We have never had this experience. However, once the site is complete, we post it on the internet for your approval. From that time you have 7 calender days in which to give us feedback and we will tweak and change until you are happy. We are so confident that we can make this commitment: If you had to dislike the entire site, we would do a complete custom redesign at no extra cost. Provided that we have followed your design specifications, this is limited to one redesign. If the site is still not satisfactory because you changed your mind about what you want, the second redesign would bear an additional cost to you.

It is however highly unlikely that this would ever happen. One of our major strengths is the ability to create a website to suit and project the character and image of each individual business.

Fees, Payment Options and Billing Info
Why do you charge so much less for your optimisation/marketing than other companies?

We know that there are companies charging as much as $200 US per page. We believe this is excessive for our market.

Our primary focus is small to medium sized businesses and we deliberately keep our overheads and fees low so that our services are affordable. We see no need to charge the earth.

Why is the optimisation package so expensive?

It actually isn’t. We charge way below the norm at this stage and, in addition, we are not just doing pure optimisation, but also comprehensive internet marketing.

Be sure to compare apples with apples. In addition to the fact that our package entails comprehensive marketing, we also have a defined contract period. Some companies offer a lower monthly rate, but the term is indefinite and works out much more expensive in the end. One of the biggest problems with this second type of company is that all they do is optimise one page and that page never belongs to you. - If you ever cancel the contract, you may no longer use the page that they created. With us, you have paid for the service and the site, as well as all our efforts, is therefore yours.

Finally, we are doing it the proper way and that takes a lot of time and input.

Why do you charge more for the design of the first page of a site?
This is because each of our sites is unique and styled to fully reflect you and/or your business. The greatest input into any site’s creation is therefore at this initial stage of conceptual design and the input remains the same, whether the site is only one page or a hundred pages. Secondly, this is also the stage at which we research and identify the overall optimisation strategy. Instead of spreading the cost over all pages, we opted for the higher first page fee to more accurately apportion costs.
Why are others more expensive?
At the end of the day web designers/developers will charge what people are prepared to pay. We believe that many are grossly overcharging, but that is our opinion. Our aim is to maintain fees at an affordable but realistic level, without becoming cheap and being forced to produce substandard and uninspired work and service as a result.
When do I pay for various services?

All amounts owing are invoiced electronically and emailed to clients. We also generate paper invoices or post invoices by snail mail.

All amounts owing are payable in full on receipt of invoice.

Domain registration and/or transfer fees are payable immediately that they are ordered.

A deposit of 40-50% is payable before commencement of any design or development work.

All other one-off amounts (like the balance due on site development) are invoiced and payable immediately upon completion.

What payment methods do you accept?
We accept cash, direct deposits, internet transfers and cheques. Please note that cheques require a 10 working day clearance period and services will be delayed until cheques are cleared. We regret the inconvenience that this may cause, but have been forced to impliment this due to the high incidence of cheque fraud.
What happens if I am late with a payment?

We are reasonable and understand that things sometimes go wrong. We will not simply suspend or terminate an account for non-payment, provided that you contact us before due date if you have a problem. The only time that we will suspend or terminate is if we feel that you are not doing anything to sort out the problem; if we feel that our willingness to assist a client is being abused; if the problem is continuing for an excessive period with no sign of resolution; if the problem occurs frequently.

An account can and most likely will be terminated with no further warning if the next months account becomes overdue while the site is already suspended for non-payment.

Please note that no new service will be activated until payment has been received in full. This includes the commencement of work on a website, the final uploading or release of a website, domain registration and domain transfers.

I have been quoted much more by another web design company. Why? Do you have hidden extra costs?

Not at all. Our costs are all declared upfront and, if you happen to catch us on a hectic day and we forgot to declare any cost, we take the loss.

Why are others more expensive? - At the end of the day web designers/developers will charge what people are prepared to pay. We believe that many are grossly overcharging, but that is our opinion. Our aim is to maintain fees at an affordable but realistic level, without becoming cheap and being forced to produce substandard and uninspired work and service as a result.

I can get a website much cheaper than yours. Why such a big difference?
Each of our sites is a unique creation, determined by your offering and objectives. We have toyed with the idea of using standard templates, which dramatically reduces the time involved and therefore the cost. It was a strategic decision to maintain our unique approach. Please also look out for hidden costs. Often, companies that offer cheap websites make this up in higher monthly hosting fees, tied to long term contracts.
Can’t I pay you a percentage of my increased business rather than the monthly optimisation fee?
Sorry. No. There are overheads and costs involved in the optimisation (even geeks have to eat) and it can take months before results start to show. This lag is caused by the search engines and directories themselves and is something over which we have no control. It would simply not be feasible for us to offer the service on those terms.
About ADvantage and Our Support
How long have you been around?
We began operating on a very small scale in 2004, under the name of ADvantage.
What industries do you have experience of?
We have been consulting to businesses for almost 20 years and as a result have dealt in most industries. Some in which we have had extensive experience include retail, hospitality, entertainment, wholesale, mining and engineering, real estate, natural health and cargo/freight forwarding.
What kind of support do you really offer?
For standard queries we are available Monday to Friday, 9am to 6pm and on Saturdays from 9am to 2pm. For emergencies (eg: site down, email malfunction, etc) we are available 24/7.
You don’t have any testimonials on your site. Is there any way that we can get some?
We don’t give testimonials because they are so often not believable. If you go to our past projects page you will see examples of our work. Beneath the pictures of the sites, you will find the name of the related client business. Most of these are links. If you click on any of these, they will take you to the actual websites and you can see the sites for yourself. Each site has the contact details of the business itself and you are obviously free to make contact if you wish.
Are you hiring?

We are currently looking for a part-time tele-sales person. Ideally someone who can operate efficiently in an informal environment and who is self-motivated with good people skills.

We really don't like people who are annoying or arrogant and have no desire to subject potential clients to them either, so assertiveness without being objectionable is a key characteristic.

Should ideally have experience in selling intangibles.

The position is for mornings only, working 2 hours a day and offers a small basic plus sliding scale commission. Please contact us via email only if you feel this could be a match.

We do also from time to time hire people on a per-project or short term contract basis to assist with various admin and overflow functions. If you are interested, please drop us a line and feel free to inspire us to want to work with you.
