Powerful Marketing for online stores and websites of all types.

Email Marketing

Email marketing is one of the most effective ways to retain interest in your brand and gain repeat business.  When your customers trust you with their credit cards once, they’re very likely to trust you again.

Effective email marketing takes a lot more than just putting a signup form on your site and occasionally sending out a template email.  It’s about crafting concise, targeted emails to repeat customers and retaining their loyalty.  We can craft beautiful, exciting, and effective emails for your business.

  • Marketing Calendars

    It’s always best to know well in advance what marketing holidays are coming up and know what promotions you’re going to offer.  It’s even better to have those promotions planned, created, and already scheduled to send.  We work with you to develop your marketing calendar as far in advance as possible, so that when it comes time to for a promotional email (or social post or billboard graphic on your site), everything is ready to go.

  • Transactional Emails

    Transactional emails refer to the automated emails you get after completing actions on a website, such as making a purchase or requesting assistance.  These emails, while often overlooked, are also a form of email marketing, and should be as consistent in design as the rest of your brand.

Search Engine Optimization (SEO)

When a customer is ready to purchase an item online, their search often begins at Google or Bing.  While social media and email promotions can drive visitors to your store, search engine results pages are the foremost method of finding your business online.  Search Engine Optimization is a very customized service, unique to each individual website that we work on.  Below are just a few examples of ways to help your website appear higher on the search results pages of Google and Bing.

  • Keyword Research

    Keyword research is about targeting the right customers and getting qualified traffic to your website.  Are the keywords you use in your site content relevant to your audience?  Are the people you are targeting just looking for information or ready to buy?  We determine the best keywords to use in on-site content and advertising to get the most return on your marketing investment.

  • Internal Linking

    Internal Links point at pages on your own domain to allow customers to navigate your store.  They also allow search engines to more easily read and rank all pages on your site.  It’s important that search engines are able to access all your content so that your pages rank as they should

  • Analytics Setup

    Google Analytics is a world-class website analytics tool that’s both powerful and free to install.  We make certain that it’s installed the right way on all your pages (including checkout) so that you can get a good sense of where traffic is coming from and what shoppers are doing.  This way, you can make informed decisions about your store.

  • Duplicate Content Review

    If you have more than one page on your site with the same content, search engines may not know how to rank those pages, and may rank both of them poorly.  We review your site for any duplicate content issues and take measures to eliminate them.

  • URL Structure Optimization

    The actual URL of your page is a known factor in search engine ranking.  Well-made URLs make it easy for customers and search engines to understand your page. Some eCommerce platforms create hard to understand URLs for new products by default, so we work to fix and optimize those URLs.

  • Content Optimization

    The quality of your on-site text content is crucial to search engine ranking.  Search engines desire natural, human-readable content that’s both relevant and authoritative to the subject at hand, and keyworded properly.  We can take existing content and optimize it for search visibility, or create new content based on your chosen keywords.

Pay Per Click (PPC) with
Google Ads and Bing

The fastest way to the top of the search engines is to purchase advertising space per click. Ventura Web Design & Marketing can help you identify the keywords and phrases that are the most likely to bring the right customers to your eCommerce store.

  • Google AdWords

    Google Adwords is the most prevalent PPC advertising platform ever.  They have the largest distribution network, the most traffic, and are constantly innovating.  Adwords results are mesaurable, spending is scalable, targeting is flexible, and most importantly, getting traffic is far faster than traditional SEO.  If you need qualified traffic to your site right now, Adwords is the way to go.

  • Bing Ads

    PPC advertising on Bing should not be ignored. Bing has a different and network distribution, which means your ads will be seen by a group not necessarily served by Adwords. Bing ads also allow for more precise location targeting per ad group. Depending on your industry, your ads might show in stronger positions on Bing, and the CPC (cost per click) is often slightly lower in Bing.
