Introducing the APRM Solution.

Assess is the planning and preparation stage for your web site's marketing campaign. It primarily deals with your customers (i.e. who they are, what they do, what do they look for, where they're located, etc.) It begins with a needs analysis to identify the target audience, followed by creating strategies for raising awareness to attract their attention.

Promote simply means to increase your online visibility. In theory, your web site is exposed to everyone who browses the Internet. Unfortunately, the reality is that your site is actually invisible even after you launch it because:

A. No one knows it exists and...
B. People cannot find your web site on search engines even when they search for terms relevant to your offering.

Thus, the aim of this stage is to increase traffic to your site. This is done by effectively communicating your message to your target audience - mainly via search engines because they are crucial to how potential customers will find you. Promotion primarily deals with your web site, i.e. optimizing pages and site structure, site submissions to search engines, monitoring and analyzing rankings, and, building link popularity. Once completed, the next step is to refine the strategies and repeat the cycle with the new found data.

Refine is the process of optimizing your data to adjust to your customer's needs using sophisticated Web Analysis tools. Once your web site successfully receive traffic due to effective promotions, the next step is to focus on getting your customers to buy your product or service.

Hence the aim of the Refine stage is to improve visitor-to-buyer conversion. The conversion statistics gained through the Refine stage are then analyzed again and repeated until a the "maximum" conversion rate is achieved.

Maintain is the final stage of the APRM solution and is dedicated to preserving optimal browsing experience. It is also the stage to maintain the hard earned ranking and popularity of your web site.

Keep in mind that your visitors are not only humans, but also from search engine robots as well. These robots, otherly called as spiders, are automated instructions performed on search engine databases to check all the pages submited to their massive collection of web sites to determine their ranking and activity. What's important is, robots need to be fed information properly and like human visitors, they can leave your site because of a broken link. Thus, site management and regular maintenance is crucial to your web site's on-going success.
