Join us for a hands-on, one-day workshop on Internet marketing tactics, including search engine optimisation, copywriting, conversion, and web project management. Each module will be jammed packed with practical advice, online resources, tools, tips, case studies - including the “inside scoop” on what worked and what didn’t - and interactive critiques of attendees’ websites and online marketing efforts. With a live Internet connection, we will examine in-depth:

Search engine optimisation
You want to get to the top of the search engines? Ah… but which search engines should you target? What keywords are your prospects searching for? And how do you get your site to the top for those keywords and then stay there?

Learn the tactics that will make your site ’scream’ in the search engines - ethically and sustainably - without costing you a fortune ongoing.

• Hands-on keyword research
  
• Fine tuning your content, HTML, design, and site architecture for optimal rankings
  
• Workarounds for poor search engine practices (such as frames, question marks in URLs, Flash, pop-up windows, links that say “click here,” page titles like “Welcome to ABC.com”, pull-down navigation menus)
  
• Making your e-commerce or database-driven site “search engine friendly”
  
• Building links (directories, niche sites, etc.)
  
• Google’s secrets revealed (PageRank, hyperlink text, etc.)
  
• Pay-per-click search engines (Overture, etc.)
  
• Benchmarking & competitive intelligence
  
• Measuring the return on your search engine marketing investment

Improving conversion rate
So you’ve got visitors on your website, but will they “convert” to customers? Improving conversion on your site is an art and a science that involves a mix of clever copywriting, compelling offers, a follow-up strategy, meaningful metrics for measuring success, and more.

• Developing a unique voice / personality
  
• Active vs. passive tense
  
• Verbs vs. adjectives
  
• “You” vs. “we”
  
• Toning down the marketingspeak
  
• Fine tuning your offer
  
• The call-to-action
  
• Segmenting
  
• Personalizing the content and the message
  
• Marketing metrics: cost per click, cost per conversion, customer lifetime value, churn rate, etc.
  
• “Blogging”

Working with your web developer
What are the ingredients for sucess when launching a redesign or a new site? What processes are helpful in keeping the project and the vendor on track? What are reasonable expectations of the client and the vendor? What goes into (and what doesn’t go into) an effective brief or specification? How do you manage the legal risk?

• Writing a strategic brief, creative brief, functional spec, content plan, etc.
  
• Budgeting and resource allocation
  
• Vendor selection
  
• The art and science of estimating time and costs
  
• The web development process
  
• Change management
  
• The project extranet
  
• Web development contracts
  
• Liability and disclaimers
  
• Ownership of source code
