Did I tell you how Mr X from part 4 picked me for his website design project in the first place? Listen up because he actually had a good way to do this;

Here it is:

First of all you must be absolutely clear about why you want a website and what exactly you want to achieve with it. This way you will be able to get what you want without being swayed or manipulated by a smart-talking salesman with a cheesy tie!

After you have really figured out what you want then you can set about looking for it and picking website designer to do this with.

Ask for a few quotes or tenders (not more than 5 but 3 is ideal) from a few developers or website designers.

Take a very good look and study each entry carefully and ask questions against the wishlist you made in the first point above. Here you are looking for the best fit for your intended outcome which is your business website that looks and does exactly what you want it to.

Ask for references and portfolio from the website designers tendering and make sure they allow you to have a quick chat with their referrences or portfolio customers.

When you talk to the references you want to know how the website designers handle the design process, their terms and how you agree to sign off each stage of develoment. What guarantees do they have and very important; how long their support goes for. They must have an interest in making sure the website does what you set out to do. If this will involve search engine optimization you must make sure you understand how this helps and also should that be left out, you want to know how to measure the website effectiveness versus your intended outcomes.

Once you pick your website designer you want to think about the website hosting and what comes with it or features of the website hosting.

Make sure you are clear who the domain name you choose is registered to. Some unscrupulous website designers have been know to register their clients’ domain names in the designer’s name and asking for ridiculous amounts of money to let it go. Make sure you do not run into this one.

Can you afford the service? Is it bespoke or ‘off-the-shelf’ ? Just make sure you know what you are getting upfront.

Can you change and update your own website or will you have to pay management fees on a monthly basis? These days most website designers supply CMS or content management systems so you can change and update your own website later to keep it in line with your business at all times.

When all the above are sorted out the rest is customer service. How do they treat you and other customers? Are they helpful? Friendly? Honest?

Do they explain everything to you or bamboozle you with techno language? Always be clear about what’s going on with your website at all times. After all you are very good at managing your brick and mortar store, you should be taking full control of the website as well.

If there is any talk of contracts make sure you know how long for and how to get out of it if you decide to do this.

You have been in business for a while and know what you do in general, I suggest you take the same rules as before to the website as well.

Hope this helps. You can direct any questions here.

Creativity.

This is one virtue a web-log must possess to lead the race in the ruthless competition in the Internet based business. With so many competition and rivalry going on, every method of marketing must be employed and utilized.

It doesn’t matter if you have a killer product or a fantastically designed webwebsite, if people don’t know that you exist, it doesn’t matter, and you are not going to make it big. Worse of all, you business could just get killed.
While there are so many methods and schemes used by so many e-commerce blogs today, there are still some of those that can help you with an extra boost in the popularity ratings. One of these is the so called Viral Marketing.
While the term Viral easily depicts a virus, a word very much dreaded by all computer owners, it is not what it seems. You do not actually use a computer virus to spread your business; on the contrary it just might kill you. Everyone has had enough of all those pop up ads and spywares.

Viral Marketing Overview

Viral Marketing also known otherwise as Viral Advertising is a marketing technique used to build the public awareness of one’s product or company. They use many forms of media to reach out to the public without actually promoting the product by riding on in other forms of addictive means that could get a person hooked and be obliged or amused to actually pass it on, with the product or company advertisement along with it.
In a nutshell, companies ride on the idea that if people like the content of a media they will pass it on to their friends and family. They sponsor the certain media, such as a cool flash game, funny video, amusing story and such, which one may pass on to another with the company brand or logo or the products description or any other content to help promote the company or its product.

Viral marketing has become a popular means of advertising and marketing because they are relatively low cost. To avoid being tagged as spam mail, viral marketing counts on the eagerness of one person to pas on the product. If a person sees the name of the person they know as the sender, they won’t block it and open it as well.

Many companies offer incentives such as discounts and rebates when they help in spreading their viral marketing. They rely on the number of recipients a viral marketing gets from one person in determining the amount or number of incentive they can be attributed with.

Using Viral Marketing to your advantage

The main and foremost advantage of viral marketing is that you get a lot of publicity and public awareness about your web page and your company. You get to generate a flow of traffic that are potential customers. With a little ingenuity and imagination, plus some incentives or prizes, you can reach out to a great number of people and announce your existence.

Most every web-page and companies are catching on to the effectivity of Viral Marketing and Advertising. Not using it could kill your business. Along with other schemes and methods in promoting your website, like Search Engine Optimization and such, viral marketing could easily push you ahead in the rating games.
Viral Marketing could be a sneaky way to get people to know about you and your company. You get them to pass your advertisement along. They are also very low cost that not investing in it could be downright a business suicide. All it takes is a great idea, a good addicting game, a funny story many ideas are still out there. Create a gossip or a buzz, many movies are promoted by using scandals and gossips to make them moiré popular. Remember the movie “The Blair Witch Project”?

Many big companies have tried viral marketing and have had many success stories with it. A classic example is Microsoft’s Hotmail. They were the first known big company to utilize the scheme and it has worked wonders for them.

Now it’s your turn to use viral marketing to work wonders for you. Act now and reap the benefits Viral Marketing will provide for you and your sales figures.

When one goes to buy a diamond engagement ring to propose, it is usually a really nerve-wrecking moment. There is just too many questions and ifs.

Will she say yes? What if she doesnt say yes? Then what?
What about the ring itself, is it good enough?
Can she show it off to friends and peers with pride?
Where do you buy it from? And for how much?

I read somewhere that one should save up around six times their monthly wage to buy a sure winner of an engagement ring. What if that’s a lie? What if you get ripped off by jewelry chains?

I can tell you from personal experience that at wedding times people are usually very vulnerable. Which is why, for example, when you rent a car for a weekend away you get one price but ask for a wedding car rental and you get charged ten times as much for the same car! So, who do you turn to for that big rock for your engagement?

Well if you are in San Diego California you want to go with the best jewelers in town. That’s Bert Levi Family Jewelers. You can visit them or check out their website www.levifamilyjewelers.com. They have been voted best jewelers in San Diego by Bizvotes which collates votes from local folk to review the best businesses in San Diego. Remember the name: Bert Levi Family Jewelers. I tell you they know what they are doing and have been making custom diamond engagement rings since 1926.

So how did they become the best? Let’s quickly break it down here.

When you buy that engagement diamond ring, you may propose in this one minute but really it’s the beginning of your own family. A new future with your beloved, till death do you part. You definitely want to take care of the ring selection and what better way to do it than with a family oriented business? Bert Levi Family Jewelers are family owned jewelers run by the family themseves headed by Bert Levi and and his wife Gloria. They have been in business for three generations with another generation waiting to take over when the time comes. Bert’s parenta are stillinvolved in the business and you can see them when you visit their warm and charming jewelry store. They know family values and they want you to start your family the right way and with the right diamond. Unlike large chain jewelers they have a large diamond ring selection of over 3000 rings but will never force it upon you because if you want something else they always keep extra loose diamonds for your custom work.

The Levis are very welcoming and project that warm family atmosphere and not the usual salesy experience you may find elsewhere. They will stick to your budget and make sure you get the best deal for your money, bar none.

Their store does not have any pushy salespeople on commission who are out for an extra buck and totally ignore your comfort or real needs or situation. There is a reason they have been in business for around 85 years and counting, that is top notch warm and welcoming customer service in San Diego. In their store it is all about you. You are the focus and it’s easy to see whan you visit them.

They constantly get top reviews from customers and anyone else that has had the pleasure of working with them. They dont just treat customers like a means to an end or fat pockets, they literally take you by the hand explain the way jewelry is made and will sit with you and make sure you get exactly what you ask for. Some jewelers out there will give you one price for the diamond, then add on other fees for the base metal, then another rate for drawing or sketching the ideas you may have before actually making the ring for you. Not the Levis. Bert – the owner will personally help with the sketching and design work and will not leave it until you are thoroughly satisfied. There is no extra charge for additional warranties or any other add-ons. Talk about dealing directly with the boss. You just do not get this type of quality service anywhere else these days- period.

As a newly wed and having seen the hassles the jewelry industry comes with myself, I would certainly recommend Bert Levi Family Jewelers to anyone out there looking for a diamond egangement ring. Go ahead and visit them at 123 Horton Plaza San Diego, CA 92101 or call them on 619.239.2618. Of course you can check out their website as well at www.levifamilyjewelers.com.
