Crafting Your Emails

posted on: March 10th, 2010

Creating an email marketing campaign that will be noticed is very important and should be one of your top priorities in web marketing. It is a complex task designing an email that initially attracts the attention of the recipient and encourages them to read what you have written, as well as getting people to take action such as clicking on one of your links. The first and most important task is attracting the attention of your email recipient and enticing them to read more. This has to be accomplished with a tempting subject heading that is inviting but not sensational in its approach. Headings that are making bold statements and false claims will usually end up in the junk folder and will never be read. The body of your email has to be interesting but also has to present an offer that cannot be refused. Using lots of fancy graphics is fine but if your offer is not tempting or good value, no amount of fancy emails will make a person buy. The other problem with graphics is taking care that they will actually work on the recipients email. You have to think about what your reader will see when he opens your email. Anything that doesn’t work such as broken graphics or links will discourage a person from reading more. Here at Click Consult we have the necessary expertise to be able to craft an email marketing campaign, emails that have compelling subject headings and present an offer in an interesting fashion. We test sample emails rigorously to ensure that they can be opened and read by the email recipient.

Advanced Local Listings

posted on: March 9th, 2010

If you are setting up geo-targeted PPC campaigns in combination with local listings there are some advanced settings you can use to further improve your pay per click advertising. Once you have fully listed all your opening hours, the forms of payment that are accepted and a detailed description of the services and products on offer you have an automatic line into those search engines that accept your listing to amend and update them as time goes on. By claiming your listing you block other companies from hijacking your entry but you can also gain advantages for your PPC campaigns in Google. In the campaign settings you can show appropriate addresses to searchers via ads in a targeted area.  This is great way of appealing to searchers by using a well targeted ad and supplying an accurate local address. Once Google has claimed your listing, access the settings tab for the campaign you want to amend.  Click on the link which allows you to addresses which can be found under ‘Locations, Languages and Demographics’. Local search is fast being recognised as one of the fastest online divisions.  Local marketing is projected to continue to thrive and it is thought that as mobile usage is linked to local search, the boom in mobile applications will propel local marketing further.  By using a combination of geo-targeting and local listings you will be one step ahead of the competition. At Click Consult we can offer more advice on how you can create effective pay per click accounts for local ads in your web marketing campaign.
