Essentially the goal of a landing page is for visitors to take action, such as filling out a lead form or making a purchase. Often times a landing page will be your company’s first impression to your online audience and you only have a few seconds to make it a lasting one. If done correctly, customers will get the information they need to make their purchasing decisions. Below is a short and easy checklist to ensure your landing page functioning properly:
1. Are there any obstacles to scanning the page?
2. How hard is it to leave the page or get sidetracked?
3. Does the page have a fold?
4. Are you gathering unnecessary data?
5. Is there enough white space on the page?
6. Are there testimonials on the page? Is there a link to Privacy Policy?
7. Is it obvious which button to click on?
8. Does it take too long for the page to load?
9. Do the images on your page compliment your messages?
10. Are your landing pages available for indexing by search engines?

Generation Y women are younger, trendier, and more technologically advanced than Generation X women. Studies have shown that Gen Y women have “redefined” their social networks to include their friends or buddies on various online social media pages, anonymous reviewers and bloggers.
Gen Y is therefore more likely than Gen X to share new products/ideas online to their larger networks which is the beginning of a new trend for Gen X. Women across the world can now research products they’ve never heard of and the products they love and use daily via blogs, status updates, and other posts.
When it comes to products that Gen Y women love, they are still more likely to distribute information about them via original mediums such as: telephone or in person. “But they post about products and brands on social networking sites or online forums nearly twice as much as older women. Gen X women, on the other hand, are more likely than younger females to share information via e-mail.”
The potential pop culture influence of social marketing is consequently increasing dramatically due to so many trendsetting Gen Y women using those types of sites.
Mothers are also a strong target of women for this type of research because mothers usually ask other mothers for advice on decisions they face with their families; this is especially true with “millennial moms,” or mothers who were born in Gen Y.
“With moms it is even a stronger source, as moms have always found it important to ask other moms before making important decisions that affect their families and kids,” Brandon Evans, managing partner and chief strategy officer at Mr Youth, told Media Life magazine. “With social media, it became much easier for them to seek out advice on a variety of topics from a wider net of people, so it quickly gained in influence.”

Some publications, such as newspapers, claim that e-mailing is declining in generation Y. Research shows that an increasing amount of people are joining social networking sites, for example, Facebook or Twitter, for communication but in reality college students still think highly of their e-mail accounts. WebitMD is active within these Social Networking sites as well. Follow us on Facebook & Twitter.
The Participatory Marketing Network and Pace University’s Lubin School of Business’ IDM Lab conducted research and more than one quarter of students claimed that e-mail was the activity that they are least likely to give up for a week. In addition to e-mail being the top activity is text messaging.
The research results show that emailing and text messaging are tied at 26% for the top two communication mediums that college students are least likely to give up for a week. Nearly one half of students send and receive about 500 texts per month.
“These results may be surprising to some, but not if you consider the role email continues to play in the day-to-day lives of Gen Y,” said Michael Della Penna, PMN co-founder and executive chairman, in a statement. “As long as email remains the collection point for social networking updates, including alerts around new followers, discussion updates and friend requests, it will remain a powerful force in marketing and our lives.”

There are many strategies that your business could engage in within the Internet Marketing arena. Marketing on the web in ever-changing and within the last 3-5 years has progressed rapidly.
How does your company make a decision on the best strategy with the most profitable ROI in your industry?
The answer to this question is quite complex and should be looked at in-depth by your marketing departments and a certified eMarketing consultant as well. The best strategy for your business could be a single tactic or a combination of a few. For most of our clients a combination of strategies seem to be the best method to gain targeted traffic as well as build credibility with the search engines. The initial on-page SEO optimization is generally the first stage followed by local search optimization and social media as well. The latter of the tactics include back-end web development and email marketing and brand identity campaigns. Each business is different as well as the internet marketing strategies that reflect that business sector.
Small businesses are generally ones that I encounter with weaker internet presence and require a long term strategies. Larger corporations typically have more developed websites yet still require internet marketing to keep up with their competition. If you are a small business, gaining presence on the internet could solely be the most important marketing push you make this year.
The facts and figures behind the rise in Internet Marketing tactics and social media users is astonishing….Do not miss the opportunity for your business to be a part of it.
