Q: Can u tell me what elements I need to sell 
products on the web?
A: Yes, you need a PROFESSIONALLY designed site, one that instills confidence in your visitors, easy to navigate and presents your products well. You need site "hosting." Hosting is the internet server that your site is accessed from and stores your data/graphics and other information. If you want to sell directly from your site, you need your site E-commerce enabled which means customers can use their credit card to buy from your site in real time. We make sure your site is secure and safe to do that.

Plus, (and this is often the aspect most designer's don't understand) you simply must have a professional marketing plan as part of your initial site launch. Without a marketing campaign your site will be dead in the water. Don't believe that all you have to is get your site on the net. Remember that literally millions of websites are competing against you. 

Q: What are the Top Search Engines and Directories?
A:Yahoo, Google, Ask.com,  and MSN/Live Search are the Top Engines. However sometimes these engines/directories pull information from each other so html coding and proper submission to them, is crucial.

Q: How do I know how much to spend for my site design and promotion?
A: Simple, how much is one lead worth to you? Ex: If you're selling real estate, how much is your average sales fee? After you determine how much a lead is worth, then you need to know how many visitors must come to your site before you convert one to a client or sale. Is your conversion ratio 1-500? Or is it more or less? We can help you determine this BEFORE we build your site. 

Wow, knowing what to expect before you invest your money? What a concept. A concept that some of our competitors don't even care about. But NetGURUS.us does care.

Q: What do you mean by conversion ratio?
A: If you have 100 visitors come to your site, for instance, and let's say that only 5 of those visitors, actually call you. Then from those 5 callers, you actually sell (or convert) 2 of them to buy your product or service. That is your conversion rate or ratio. So if 1 in 100 actually buy then your conversion rate is 1/100. Understand that different types of businesses have different conversion ratios, this is just a very simple example. But you can see from this example how important site design, optimization and promotion really are. Do it right, you make money. But if you do it the wrong way, you lose and so does the customer. 

We personally know of a jeweler that spent a bundle on design, but almost nothing on promotion. That's like building a wonderful storefront in a secret location. That mistake will kill you in a brick-n-mortar operation and it will kill you on the Web.
