Three Must Have Services for a Better Online Presence Service #1: Quality Web Hosting I'm not talking about one of those Free accounts where they throw their own ad in every time someone visits your site. I'm talking about a premium, ad free web hosting package with your own domain name. Plenty of space and the ability to handle plenty of traffic. Service #2: A Minimum of one Sequential Autoresponder Account Why autoresponders? First they allow you to follow up with your online visitors automatically. Most people won't order during their first visit to your website. You can set your autoresponder to send out follow up email messages. That makes your initial goal to capture the name and email address or your visitor so you can send them more information about the benefits of your offer. At the same time you're building a list of people that you can keep in regular contact with and send special offers to. You will need to prompt our visitor to sign up for an online newsletter, a free report, or any other offer you may have to encourage them to give you their name and email. You should have enough autoresponder accounts to promote more than one offer. Service #3: An Online Adtracker No matter whether you're using free advertising or paid advertising you MUST track the performance of your ads. You need to know what ads work and which ones are duds. You have to know which advertising sources are giving you the best results for your time and money. You can even track individual links in your website to see which ones are getting the most hits. If you're in the market for quality hosting offered by a femaile owned company located in the Northwest, consider HostDiva.com. They will move your html or cpanel-hostedl site free of charge, offer a 15 day money back guarantee, and provide you with free online flash tutorials to get the most out of your hosting account.
