Want to start your own website?
 Find a topic you are passionate about
    This gives you energy to keep going
    Eg an author, a type of movie, a hobbie, a sport
 Provide content that is valuable & interesting to
  certain people (not everybody)
    Eg reading order list, ranking list of movies & indepth
     character details, how-to videos
 Have an attitude. Take a stand.
 Once you have an audience, making money is
  easy
                                       Sheldon Nesdale :: www.MarketingFirst.co.nz
Building a website for a client?
           5 questions to ask:
1. What are your overall goals for your business?
   Growth? More revenue? More profit? Highly quality?
    Higher prices? To be the leader?
2. What are your personal goals?
   Work less? Make more money? Both? Be famous for
    something? Sell the business & retire?
   This tells you what motivates them
3. How will a website help with your goals?
   Let them tell you why they want one
   This tells you what they expect from you

                                     Sheldon Nesdale :: www.MarketingFirst.co.nz
Building a website for a client?
            Questions to ask:
4. What action do you want customers to take?
   Call your phone number? Fill in an email enquiry
    form? Buy something? Walk into your shop?
   This tells you how to measure success
5. Why would a customer buy from you
   anyway?
   What makes you unique / different / special?
   This tells you what the content should be

                                  Sheldon Nesdale :: www.MarketingFirst.co.nz
When building a website, whos
    perspective is most important?
1. Your client?
2. You?
3. The clients customers?




                            Sheldon Nesdale :: www.MarketingFirst.co.nz
Most important perspective:
      Your clients end-customer
 Without them, the pyramid falls over
 The more you know about the end customers
  the better the website will be




                            Sheldon Nesdale :: www.MarketingFirst.co.nz
What questions are customers asking
themselves when they visit a website?
1. Have you got what I want?
2. Can I trust you?
3. How much will it cost me?




                             Sheldon Nesdale :: www.MarketingFirst.co.nz
Have you got what I want?




                  Sheldon Nesdale :: www.MarketingFirst.co.nz
Have you got what I want?




                  Sheldon Nesdale :: www.MarketingFirst.co.nz
Can I trust you?




              Sheldon Nesdale :: www.MarketingFirst.co.nz
What builds trust?
1. Testimonials
2. Guarantees
3. Details that prove expertise
   Eg How we do things...




                                  Sheldon Nesdale :: www.MarketingFirst.co.nz
How much will it cost?
 Dont waste my time!




                         Sheldon Nesdale :: www.MarketingFirst.co.nz
Guidelines for building a website
1. Keep the end customer in mind
2. Before you add extra stuff ask if it might get in
   the way of results
3. Be predictable
    So new visitors dont get a headache learning how to
     get what they want
    3 column layout
    Black text on white background
    Blue underlined text for hyperlinks
    Use headlines, subheads, bullets, images, links, video
