The following provides a brief explanation describing a few of the marketing services DesignDock can provide.

SEARCH ENGINE (FREE OR FEE BASED?)

As always, search engines continue to evolve. Latest observations indicate that more engines/directories are charging a fee for inclusion into their respective indexes, however many still remain free.

We spend many hours a month analyzing search engine trends. We can then advise whether your site and keywords would benefit from the various fee-based programs available.

BANNER AD CAMPAIGNS (FREE OR FEE BASED?)

Free - Link exchange type programs are usually free. Normally an impression ratio of 2/1 means that you will earn one banner impression for every two you serve from your site. This can work well if your site already generates a lot of hits. You will soon earn sufficient impressions to make an impact throughout their network.

Fee - Highly targeted banner delivery on high profile sites comes at a price. Some ad companies charge per thousand impressions served (CPM), whilst others charge per click through (CPC). Either way you have more control over the geographic location, time, and nature of sites your banner is served on.

DesignDock can design/devise a banner campaign to fulfill your objectives and budget, see our design examples below.

AFFILIATE MARKETING

With affiliate marketing you recruit other websites to partner with you in exchange for commission. You provide the affiliate with your advertising banner and tracking code, which in turn is placed on their website.

When a banner click-through is generated from the affiliate's site, the program will log the visitor's activity right through to your order form. If a product or service is then purchased, the customer pays the merchant directly and the affiliate is paid a commission for that transaction.

OPT-IN MAILING LISTS/E-ZINES/NEWSLETTERS

Simply put all these publications in the virtual world have a common generic form of distribution - Email.

We can setup up and help distribute your own newsletter, or alternatively, advise as to the options available when advertising in established high readership publications.

Companies are realising that creating their own newsletters is a vital way for customer retention.

STATISTIC REPORTS

If you would like to know how many people visit your site, where they've come from, what pages they've viewed, what browser they've used, what time, duration etc., then you may be interested in our stats reports. These are generated by analyzing your websites log files. Online trackers can generate reports on a daily basis giving you valuable data as to your visitor's surfing habits.
