First of all allow me explicate wherefore Return On Investment (ROI) is indeed significant when you feature or demand a web site front for your commercial enterprise. Having the best looking website that operates 110%, but does not earn you the money back you spent and more, is just an endless expense? Being a man or woman in business, earning a profitable income from your investment is what you want right?

This is the major problem with most eager business owners these days; they do not always comprehend the power of Internet Marketing and having a fully profit making Internet presence, the ones that do consult the first web designing company or web designer they come across that looks promising, not realising all the factors that come in to play when ensuring your business a tremendous ROI.

I cannot stress this point enough “ROI Success comes with laborious work and intensive research and utilising the right services, the right way”.

Ok enough of that, let me come down to the 4 key factors building a successful eternal ROI campaign.

CMS & SEO

First of all before we can commence with any of the factors we need to produce/form/evolve/sustain a website right? So what is CMS and SEO and why do I combine them together as one factor? Well because I see both as a industry standard when it comes to any cost effective, successful driven internet site, I do not trust the one can engage without the other.

CMS

Content Management System, as the name says; a system that manages content, where the keyword is content. Content is what it is all about. As you know by now Google is the leading search engine and generates about 70% of the Internet’s traffic. Yahoo and MSN is 2^nd and 3^rd and they always follow Google’s lead. Meaning whomever is deemed a first page ranker by Google, is so by default most of the times also by Yahoo and MSN. Saying this Google loves content, rich content, relative content, professional copy written content, lots of newly updated content and most of all original content.

Beneficial points of CMS

1. You can easily create your own articles, maintain and update your own website. Setting up a CMS based internet site is really fast after all the content is compiled and categories, sections, components, menus and modules are setup.
2. 3^rd party components make it easy for any sought after interactive features like, polls, community building, podcasts, forums, forms and so many more.
3. Whether you want a simple site or a more complex site there is really no limits.
4. With your backend you can see various reports and it is very user friendly. More than one user can be added with certain permissions to administrate the site or just be able to maintain, update and add content.
5. Save money paying webmasters to update your content and have full control.

SEO

Search Engine Optimization the most crucial building block of any website. It does not help you have a website but it is not visible to others and you are not getting the required traffic. There are many factors that are needed for SEO to be advantageous to the business owner.

• Keyword Research
• On Site Optimization
• Link Building
• Managing Online Reputation

Google Adwords

This is by far the best and only Pay Per Click platform I believe in. By using Google Adwords correctly you can be guaranteed traffic right away to your internet site, even if your website is still fairly newly. I have to say from the beginning though that many people that use Google Adwords start off completely wrong and end up paying high bid rates on clicks and their CTR (Click Through Rates) are low, doing more damage to their Google Pagerank than good.

Make sure you understand and invest in some good quality ebooks covering the basics and the secrets to a successful Google Adwords campaign. If you use a company to do this for you make sure they are a qualified Google Adwords Professional like we are. For some examples of what ROI you can expect from Google Adwords, please look at the slidecast below.

Google Adsense

Your website is up and running and SEO has been done, your Google Adwords campaign is optimised, bringing you the desired amount of traffic and conversions. So what next? Why not make some extra money to cover your monthly website expenses and more by advertising on your website. That is what Google Adsense is all about.

You can put content related adverts on your pages and filter out your competition or unwanted ads. So there is only a win win result.

Google Analytics

Ok so now we have three of the four key factors up and running correctly, what is the last and also very important factor to ensure a profitable ROI campaign? Google Analytics. First of all its incorporated with Google Adwords and Google Adsense to ensure proper reports. Google Analytics tell you exactly how many visitors and from where the visitors originated from. It also tells you what pages are viewed most often and for how long.

It also tells you for what keywords visitors originated from and also in detail geographical. One can do split testing to see what pages and content needs to be modified or changed to ensure a higher click through rate with greater conversions. The all together tests and reports covered by Google Analytics, knows no end and is a building foundation for any ROI campaign.
