With little to no experience, optimising your online businesses presence can seem like a minefield. It’s easy to get lost in the numbers and believe that your follower count or number of page likes will impact your online presence but, when looking back at the basics, it really isn’t the be all or end all. Absolute Digital takes a closer look at the different ways you can boost your businesses online presence without getting too caught up in your page or site stats.
Visuals
First impressions count, which is why you need to make sure that the visuals on your website a high-quality and stand out! If you are using stock photos, then consider adding a filter to add a unique twist to the image and, more importantly, your website. To ensure that your site isn’t too stock image heavy, consider how the use of illustrations and infographics can break up large pieces of text and be of use on social media, too.
Engage in Online Communities
Engaging in online communities is one of the most effective ways to increase your web presence, enabling you to connect with your target audience. Plus, by engaging with these communities, you can rest assured that they have the same interests as you and your business, allowing you to learn more about your audience by location, language and even niche.
Grow Your Audience Via Email
Incorporating sign-up forms on your website is an excellent way to build a list of contacts whom you can regularly send promotional emails to. Essentially, it’s an easy way to keep your customers in the loop and up to date with what’s happening with your business. Here, you can also test different types of content and imagery and determine what your target audience respond the best to, helping you to finetune your social media marketing strategy, boosting your online business presence.
