For many website owners, there is a logical process which most companies follow.<\/p>\n
1) Build a website
\n2) Do a pay per click campaign
\n3) If it goes well pay more into pay per click, experiment with SEO
\n4) If it doesn’t go well, stop investing in the website.<\/p>\n
However, after a website is built, the FIRST step should be determining what your conversion rate is. That means setting up a Google analytics account, getting the goal conversions setup, and MEASURING results from traffic generated from a PPC campaign. What most companies don’t realize is that the number one factor which determines success in a campaign is whether or not the website has the ability to convert. Without that, the money spent on generating traffic is very often wasted. If your site can convert 3-5% of targeted traffic, then there is a good chance you’ll make money from an SEO<\/a> or Pay per click campaign<\/a>. If not, then it is wiser to invest the money into improving the fundamentals of the website so that visitors find what they are looking for.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" For many website owners, there is a logical process which most companies follow. 1) Build a website 2) Do a pay per click campaign 3) If it goes well pay more into pay per click, experiment with SEO 4) If it doesn’t go well, stop investing in the website.
