How to Create a Beautiful Website

October 11, 2010 By admin

10 Things I Wish I Knew When I Started Internet Marketing

No1. WORDPRESS

Blend Members Market

Several years ago I set up a production company, IMP Film Co. and I, like most people wanted to get my business seen online and so needed a website building. I didn’t know anything about HTML, PHP, CSS, Flash and all the other coding scripts so I bought The Complete Idiot’s Guide to Creating a Website

Even struggling to get my head around the simplest applications, I could see this was going to take a long time to get to know and master and finally build a functional and good looking website.

So I enlisted the help of a friend who builds sites instead. He built my first website and charged me a fare price. My only trouble is I’m always looking to change things around or I wanted new content such as videos and photos uploading to the site. Each time I had to ask my friend, book in some time and several weeks later I would get the desired results.

I found all the waiting around very frustrating but knew there must be a better way of being in control of my own site and business and have the ability to update it as often as I wished. That’s when I discovered… WordPress.

WordPress is an open source web blog, meaning literally hundreds if not thousands of people contribute to developing the style and functionality of the code and continue to do so.

No two WordPress blogs need ever be the same as there are thousands of designs, widgets and themes to mix and match around. They are totally customizable and incredibly search engine and design friendly. It’s the perfect fusion between, design, functionality and SEO.

You can have a free wordpress and host it on their platform or a self hosting wordpress giving you unlimited functionality. To self host your wordpress (it’s what I would recommend) all you need to do is purchase a domain name from a domain name company such as Namecheap. (more about domain names and web hosting in future posts) Once you have your domain name for example: mydomainname.com you need to host it somewhere. Never purchase a domain name and host it with the same company.

I highly recommend Hostgator as a hosting company for your domain. (More about web hosting in future posts) They have 24/7 customer service that is second to none and fantastic training videos. So if you want to learn how to carry out any task by watching over someone’s shoulder, you can start/pause and teach yourself.

You will need to point the DNS (Domain Name Servers) to your host servers and wait for it to propergate. When this is done (can take 20 minutes or up to a day) look for the Fantastico DeLuxe logo in your control panel. Click on this logo and follow the easy instruction and in 30 seconds you will have a live WordPress blog style website.

It really is that easy, I mean if I can do it just about anybody can! And as I say there are excellent videos showing you each simple step.

If you would like help building or designing a wordpress blog or you require some assistance purchasing a domain name and hosting, contact Perry at Blend Local Search Marketing.

I'll follow you, if you follow me!

IM always happy to help!

Local or Social… It’s a Media Revolution

September 11, 2010 By admin

Local or Social… it’s a Media Revolution

Social Media is having a massive impact on the way we connect with others, market our businesses and sell to local and global markets. But like all things there is a right way and a wrong way to do things. It’s not called Social Media for nothing… and that’s where some people get it wrong.

Social is as social does. It does exactly what it says on the tin! It’s social, it’s not called selling media. The first rule of social media is that you never sell anything. The second rule of social media is you never sell anything and the third rule… you get the picture.

Social media is a way of connecting, networking, sharing, engaging, highlighting, informing and influencing. It’s all these things and a whole lot more but never selling. Well, not in the old way!

Imagine if you will a long lost friend contacts you and invites you over for dinner. You accept and a few days later your friend is seating you at his table. You make small talk over the starters and before the main course arrives he tries to sell you an insurance policy, gets you to buy into a dodgy business venture or offers you a once in a life time opportunity to join a MLM scheme. How uncomfortable is the rest of the dinner going to be?

It’s the same with social media. It doesn’t matter if it’s Facebook, Linkedin, Twitter, Youtube or any other network, never ever sell on these platforms. Instead engage and build relationships, pass on sound advice, jokes, news and videos of cats up trees. Be active and post comments, reply to comments, give things away for free, start groups and fan pages, subscribe to other channels and support your online friends.

Those in your social network will know what you do if you have completed your profile correctly and when the time is right they will approach to buy from you so you never have to sell to them.

Most people do business with others within a 20 mile radius of their place of work or home. Social media allows you to broaden your social circle and reach more people. It also allows you to reach your friends friends. Friends talk so good recommendations are very important in social media. After all who would you rather do business with, a stranger or a friend or of a friend?

Be Local, Be Social, Blend

If you would like more information about any of the issues in this article please leave a comment below. We promise never to try and sell you insurance, a dodgy business venture or MLM.

Explosive Internet Video Marketing

August 15, 2010 By admin

Video Marketing

Video marketing is quite simply the most influential form of marketing there is available to us today. What’s more, video can generate immense amounts of traffic to your website and that is all free traffic! People are naturally drawn to and will always watch videos whether they are on television, ipad, smart phone, airplane or on the Internet. So why not give them what they want?

Marketing using the power of video is a highly efficient communication tool and the competition out there is much less than standard website search engine rankings.

Videos can take many forms and as with all business decisions it is best to have a clear strategy and achievable objective before you start to implement video marketing into your overall marketing mix.

A video can be as simple as a talking head or vox pop, a Powerpoint Presentation, a mini series, a vlog, product or service announcement, an EPK (Electronic Press Kit), a showreel, a teaser trailer, Property Video, How To Video or a full blown production depending on your business, objectives and budget.

Uploading your videos to Youtube and dozens of other diverse video hosting sites such as Revver, Daily Motion and Yahoo Video will broaden your influence on the Internet. One of the main benefits of video marketing above all other forms of Internet marketing is the viral effect. It’s very easy to send someone a video, link it to your and anybodies Facebook page and even twitter it to literally hundreds of other social networking sites.

To ensure you get the most from your video marketing it is important to set up the video with an appropriate title, description, links, keywords or tags, and submit it to a suitable category. For maximum results we also bookmark videos on a minimum of 20 social bookmarking sites and submit them to 10 RSS feeds.

Search engines such as Google, Yahoo! And Bing give more weight to website pages containing video than text alone. They also have the power to keep people on your page longer. When 8 seconds is the average time for someone to land on a page before leaving, video can keep them there a lot longer, 3 to 5 minutes is not uncommon.

Video Marketing Advantages

* The most effective way to immediately drive traffic to your website.

* An excellent strategy to build relevant and quality back links to your

website.

*Increase your Google ranking quickly for highly competitive keywords.

* More listings on SERP (Search Engine Result Pages)

* An estimated 90% of people would rather watch a video than read.

* Allows people to get to know, like and trust you.

* The viral effect

Marketing Round Our Way

July 28, 2010 By admin

So the Yellow Pages has a new look!

I received a letter this morning from Yell informing me that the famous Yellow Pages directory has been redesigned to make it better.

Apparently they’ve split it into two distinct sections. Business paying advertisers will now appear at the front and general free listings are now in alphabetical order at the back. This means paid for ads will stand out.

Apparently their research suggests that the changes could increase usage by up to 12%. Their research as far as I could ascertain was in two small areas back in 2009.

Now I would suggest this research is already out of date. How have they’ve bucked the trend from online searches back to paper when all other research in this area points to online searches still growing at huge monthly increments and the traditional methods trailing off and bottoming out?

The compact size maybe easier to fit in the letter box but it’s just as easy as it ever was to drop in the recycling facility.

Congratulations to Wampit!

Meanwhile the online business directory Wampit celebrates it’s first year with 350,000 business listings and 60,000 unique monthly visitors to it’s site.

Business Advertising - on the Wampit UK business directory.

Local Search Marketing Services Press Release

July 5, 2010 By admin

London, England (Press Release) 1 July 2010. It’s still a tough and uncertain time for trading in any business sector post election but small local businesses can now finally compete with the big companies and beat them at their own marketing game.

While top end grocers (TEG’s) are not content to dominate with their hyper stores and continue to pursue their growth with ‘Local’ and ‘Metro’ brands, Google now offer small and medium size businesses a golden opportunity to get seen where the customers are looking… and that’s on the net.

One London based internet marketing company is aiming to provide all the Internet marketing strategies these small companies need at affordable rates to dominate in online local search. Perry Stevens founded the company, Blend Local Search Marketing in 2009. Prior to establishing Blend, Perry worked in marketing with some of the biggest household brands in the world before running his own successful small business, IMP Film Co. a production company again in London.

Blend was born of the advertising shift from TV, radio and traditional print media to online, viral, social and local marketing. Small businesses are now able to claim and build their own real estate in the form of web properties and utilize the growing trend for social networking, video and map marketing to laser target new customers and elevate their company profiles to rock star status in local search.

‘It’s very important for business to claim their brand online. This means claiming a listing in Google local, registering websites and having accounts and profiles in all the major social media sites such as Twitter, Facebook and Youtube’. Perry continues ‘If you don’t claim your brand, there is a strong chance someone else will ‘hijack’ it and create all kinds of problems for you down the line’.

Blend Local Search Marketing is not an SEO company in the traditional sense. Blend build and optimize web properties and directory listings for small companies with or without a website. However they strongly recommend a website or Blog for maximum effect in local search results to stay ahead of their competition, help build their brand and create invaluable company awareness.

Blend offers three affordable packages to get any small business on the first page of Google in local search – Gold, Silver and Bronze.

Blend claim your business listings and then build and fully optimize each web property with videos, photos, keyword rich copy and use a whole suite of tools to rank you higher then your competition, using the keyword phrases your customers use to find you.

Every small business today should have a web presence and Blend’s ‘Local Map Marketing Service’ is the affordable first steps to be seen were the customers are searching and that’s online.

A reported 86% of all local searches are onlinewith 90% of these searches resulting in offline activity. 61% of this offline activity results in a purchase with 90% of these consumer purchases being made within a 20 mile locality of where people live or work. If you run a local company wouldn’t you want those customers coming to you? Your competition certainly would!

If your company isn’t seen on the first page of Google, the fact is you are not going to get any customers from online. Can your business afford to miss out on new customers, growth and sales?

The real beauty of investing in local and social marketing is three fold:

Firstly, it’s working for you 365 days a year all round the clock (sounds like the perfect employee!) and continues to grow and evolve over time.

Secondly is the invaluable dialogue you can have with your customers. You want them to be talking about your products and services so why not lead the discussion and build long lasting relationships with them?

Thirdly, most people like to do business with people they know. By stamping your personality all over your web properties, searches get to know you and long standing, trusting relationship are formed.

A strong Local Map Marketing strategy will raise your company profile above your competition, engage and inform your customers which in turn result in retaining old and creating new customers, more sales and a healthy ROI.

Blend Local Search Case Study #1

July 5, 2010 By admin

In our first case study for Local Search Marketing by Blend, we are going to have a look at Perry’s Aquatic Centre.

Perry’s Aquatic Centre is a tropical, marine and cold-water fish shop in Lincolnshire. The business has been around for over 18 years but had no website.

Blend started by discussing with the owner what they wanted to achieve with an online presence and together decided on what search terms they wanted to be found by. We then build a Blog website that allowed the owners to manage content and communicate with their customers on a regular basis in the future.

In less than two weeks Blend had positioned Perry’s Aquatic Centre on Page 1 of Google and within three weeks had 7 out of 10 listings for the keyword search terms. A further 4 listings were recorded on Page 2 of Google.

The first new customer the website produced purchased goods from the centre with a ‘Print-off and Present’ voucher on the second weekend after the websites launch.

Blend also opened an affiliate account with Amazon and built an online store on the website. This generates a revenue stream of passive income for the owners. In other words they earn money for doing nothing. Amazon looks after all the sales and posts Perry’s Aquatic Centre a commission check every month. All they have to do is cash it.

Above The end-of-week 1 screen shots using the keywords ‘Aquatics Centre Lincoln’. The search term turns up 151,000 listings. Notice Perry’s Aquatic Centres website has yet to rank on Google Page 1 but directory listing are present.

Above At the end of week 3, Perry’s Aquatic Centre completely dominates Google Page One with 7 out of 10 local search listings including #1 and #2. There is also a map, directions and the company’s telephone number and full postal address.

It also has two video listings further down that catch the eye of the searcher. Also notice the #2 listing is indented. If you click on ‘show more results’ button another 5 pages of Perry’s Aquatic Centre are opened.

The methods we use to blend local search and market this company give the searcher rich content and relevant information on the business and the competitors are completely blown out of the water.

Local Search Marketing – Case Study #2

June 23, 2010 By admin

In the second case study for Local Search Marketing by Blend we are going to have a look at London Property Video Productions.

This is a new company that produce videos to promote the selling and rental of properties. Their service, already established in the USA and Asia is new to the UK market. A website was required to showcase their products and services B2B.

The keywords chosen were in a very competitive area producing nearly 64 million index listings. This makes it much harder to rank in Google or any other search engine.

A content rich site was constructed. A blend of SEO, vertical, local and social marketing techniques is used to rank the website. Within six weeks London Property Video Productions have established themselves in the front of their customer base by dominating Google page #1 and #2 with 8 Google page one listings and 6 page two listings.

Above Google Page 1 Domination with London Property Video Productions taking 8 out of 10 listings in a very competitive market place.

Above London Property Video Productions even have 6 index listings on Google Page 2 and note there are 63.8 million listing for this search term.

The methods we use to blend local search and market this company give the potential searcher rich content and relevant information on the business and its property video marketing services. Their competitors are simply not seen and are completely left out in the dark.

A website that ranks as well as the one above is a piece of company real estate commanding a high value and a tangible asset.

Prior to establishing Blend, Perry worked in marketing with some of the biggest household brands in the world before running his own successful small business, IMP Film Co. a production company again in London.

Blend was born of the advertising shift from TV, radio and traditional print media to online, viral, social and local marketing. Small businesses are now able to claim and build their own real estate in the form of web properties and utilize the growing trend for social networking, video and map marketing to lazer target new customers and elevate their company profiles to rock star status in local search.

Blend offers three affordable packages to get any small business on the first page of Google in local search – Gold, Silver and Bronze.

Every small business today should have a web presence and Blend’s ‘Local Map Marketing Service’ is the affordable first steps to be seen were the customers are searching and that’s online.

If your company isn’t seen on the first page of Google, the fact is you are not going to get any customers from online. Can your business afford to miss out on new customers, growth and sales?

The real beauty of investing in local and social marketing is three fold:

* Firstly, it’s working for you 365 days a year all round the clock (sounds like the perfect employee!) and continues to grow and evolve over time.

* Secondly is the invaluable dialogue you can have with your customers. You want them to be talking about your products and services so why not lead the discussion and build long lasting relationships with them?

* Thirdly, most people like to do business with people they know, like and trust. By stamping your personality all over your web properties, searches get to know you and long standing, trusting relationship are formed. These customers want to do business with you.

We’ll take care of your online local search marketing while you do what you do best, running your business and capitalizing on your new customers.

However, we know how rocky the business landscape is at the moment. The thought of committing to an monthly marketing strategy is maybe out of your reach. Building and ranking highly in the Google Local Map 7 Pack and in organic local search, although an essential must today and very attractive, may not be financially viable for some small businesses at the moment. Maybe you have one resource you could use more effectively and efficiently… your staff!

“During the two day course I’ll teach one on one or a small group of your workforce how to build and implement an effective online local search marketing strategy”.

The day starts with and will continue to focus on Google as they are by far and away the biggest search engine with around 65% of the market.

“We encourage a best practice approach and

record management from the start”.

The course is ‘hands on’ meaning we will be:

*Listing and optimizing your business in Google Local Maps

*Building a Facebook Group page

*Opening a Twitter profile and optimizing it

*Constructing Web 2.0 properties and adding relevant content

*Opening a Youtube Channel and uploading a video

*Starting a Flickr account

*Building a blog

Once we have built the web properties we look at how social bookmaking can help you achieve your goals, build links, drive traffic to your sites and customers to your business.

We will also look at the free tools and software available to maximise the exposure of your web properties and make an attention grabbing video.

While we encourage students to take notes throughout the course we also provide full course details, step by step instructions and resource notes at the end of the day in a PDF format.

The Local and Social Search Blueprint (2 Days) is a one time investment of £1497 for a lifetime of rewards.

YES I want to make that investment in my staff and my company by booking The Local and Social Search Blueprint in my workplace.

Please contact us here or call us on 0207 231 2432 Now.

Blend Local Map Marketing Service

March 31, 2010 By admin

Blend Local Search Marketing have created an affordable stategy for listing local businesses in the Google Local Map 7 Pack in organic local search page 1 results.

“Your business can feature in the Google Local Map 7 Pack in organic local search with or without a website!”

Google Local Listings have made internet marketing a level playing field for businesses. Now you can compete and beat the big corporations at their own game by implementing an inexpensive local search engine marketing solution. Those who take advantage of this opportunity sooner, rather than later will make the greater returns on investment.

Does your business show up in the Google Local Map 7 Pack? If not, read on to learn how your business can be listed in Google Local Maps in organic local search.

Blend Local Search Marketing have developed an affordable internet marketing strategy that gets your business visible where customers are searching; on the net and on Google Local Maps… it’s called Blend Local Map Marketing (BLMM)

Are you disillusioned with the ROI with your Yellow Pages advertising?

Are you confused by SEO and internet marketing information overload?

Are you paying a fortune for CPC (cost per click) Google Adwords?

“If you are serious about having your business in the Google Local Map 7 Pack and on page 1 of organic local search this is going to be the easiest business decision you have ever had to make”.

Type in any ‘service’ and a ‘city’ into Google i.e. cycle shop Lincoln, restaurant Brighton or orthodontist Leeds. This is how your potential customers will find you. Do you want new customers to find you?

Google page 1 shows the same results for the local search. You’ll notice Google local maps have 7 spots (A to G) to the right of the map, below there are 10 organic listings and to the right (and sometimes above) are paid advertisements (CPC).

Here’s the thing… If you are not in the Google Local Map 7 Pack or page 1 of organic local search no one is going to find you. Page two is rarely looked at. The reality is if you are not on page one you are NEVER going to get any business from Google. However, one point to remember is that you don’t even need to have a website.

So why choose the Blend Local Map Marketing service for your effective local search engine marketing solutions? Well we really believe that we have simply put together the strongest local search marketing package available today at the most affordable price. Your success is our success.

Do you want more quality leads?

Do you want to get new customers and engage with existing ones?

Do you want to increase sales?

Get your business in the Google Local Map 7 Pack and be on the first page of organic local search and you will get more leads, engage with customers and skyrocket sales. Well, that’s exactly what we’ll do for you. We’ll get YOU seen in the right place, by the right people so you can convert these qualified leads into sales and build ongoing relationships with them.

Be Seen Where the People Look!

Online local search is the new Yellow Pages and a whole lot more. A whopping 86% of adults now use search engines such as Google to look up information, products and services from local businesses. A reported 80% of all income is spent within a few miles of their homes or place of work. A strategic internet marketing campaign is now imperative to the success of running a thriving business in today’s market and even more so as Google roll out Social Search.

“Someday is not a day of the week”.

Satisfaction is guaranteed. Your success is our success. We can’t get you on Google page 1 over-night; it takes time to move up the rankings. It will depend on the competitiveness of your market as to how long it will take to get you ranked on page 1 in local search. However with diligent SEO practise on our part and if you’re patient and trust the process you will eventually reach page one.

We do not insist on a monthly contract so if you are not satisfied with the service we provide you can cancel anytime. If at anytime you cancel the agreement we will discontinue our local search optimization service. It’s our goal to get you to page one of Google in local search so you can begin turning a search in to a sale. The sooner we start, the sooner your listing will show up.

Google can change their algorithms at any time so we may have to implement new optimisation tactics to achieve the same results. I would like to thank you for your business and rest assured the team at Blend are working on your behalf to help your business succeed beyond all expectations in these competitive and difficult times.

Google 7 Pack v Directory Marketing

March 12, 2010 By admin

A Symbiotic Relationship

A few days ago we posted an article ‘Directory Marketing 5* Google Juice for Local Search’.

We explained how directories were effectively the new search engines in local search. We carried out a test on the words ‘restaurants’ and Brighton’ and revealed that 9 out 10 results were directories. Proving the importance of directory marketing and why every business, if they have a website or not, should use directory marketing to gain an online presence.

What we failed to mention was the Google 7 pack in this local search experiment. The following video presentation explains the importance of the Google 7 pack and how you can use directory marketing to rank highly in it.

March 9, 2010 By admin

It’s the week of the Oscars and we’ve all been enjoying the glitz and the glamour and making mental notes to go and see all those films we have not found the time to see… yet!

How to Get Your FREE Website Analysis and keyword Phrase Report

March 5, 2010 By admin

Blend have launched their FREE website analysis and keyword phrase report today.

Blend Local Search Marketing are an internet marketing consultancy specializing in local search marketing and Google page 1 domination.

In today’s fast moving technolocial world, it isn’t enough to be indexed on page 1 of Google in local or organic search. You need to completely dominate it for the keyword phrases and terms used by your customers when searching online.

SEO organic search If you share page 1 of Google with other businesses in your field you still only get part of the market share. By completely dominating it you get the lions share. Those who take advantage of this opportunity sooner rather than later will make the biggest returns on investment.

Why are keyword phrases important?

A keyword is way to broad…

For instance, if you Google the word ‘Security’ you get 569,000,000 page results, but what are you really looking for? Security in a relationship, security gate or a security alarm?

Keyword phrases of between 2 and 4 words produce more focused results. ie. ‘Yacht security specialists’ – 77,400 results.

Factor in Local Search using a town or city name – ‘Yacht security specialists Brighton’ and the results are a manageable 5510.

Perry the founder of Blend Local Search Marketing picks up the thread ‘We run reports for businesses on keyword phrases by getting into the mindset of the customers and their search habits. Time and time again we look at beautiful websites that have been SEO’d for a single word or phrase only to discover in the data that it is not a phrase that has ever been used in a search. So while the MD may see his website sitting pretty at the no.1 spot in Google, no-one else is ever going to find it, it’s dead in the water.’

Blend SEO your website using the proven keywords your customer use to search and ensure you have the correct local search listings.

Outside of your website we build a rich mix of supporting links, web 2.0 pages and media including: Social Bookmarks, Social Networks, Directories, Classifieds, Videos, Photographs, Link Building, Blogs, Pings, Articles, Comments, News, Reviews, Press Releases and other Rich Media.

This heady combination of web 2.0 and link building increase your web footprint, drive traffic to your site and provides lots of Google juice to keep it high is search results for years to come.

For instance, it’s important to have your business listed in as many relevant online directories as possible. There are literally thousands out there but submitting your contact details, opening times, payment terms, keyword rich bio, photographs, videos, voucher etc. is time consuming and tedious, besides your too busy doing what you do best, running your business.

Blend Local Search Marketing provide this service for you as part of our Google Page 1 Domination strategy.

You want video?

You should because Google love it (in fact they actually bought Youtube) Blend Local Search Marketing produce videos in house through our sister company IMP Film Co. so you can have professional media content at a realistic prices and then have it hosted on dozens of video platforms.

Blend will take care to grow and nourish you internet presence month by month and provide a detailed monthy report of the progress.
