 In this installment of Websites We Love, we asked our Internet Marketing Facebook communityhow they encourage their customers and/or Website visitors to get in touch with them. As usual, we received a number of awesome responses, but had to choose just ONE winner. This week's Website We Lovecomes from Erica Jayne Clavin, who thinks that when it comes to customers getting in contact with her, simple is sometimes best! "I encourage visitors to fill out a simple contact form connected to my website email," she says. |

When thinking about how to showcase all the great sites our customers build, we came up with a neat idea: ask our Internet Marketing Facebook Communityto share theirs! We received such a great response, we're turning it into a weekly feature. Every Wednesday, we'll highlight one awesome site here on the blog, and on our Facebook page.
As we mentioned, we received a ton of great responses, so it was very hard for us to choose justoneto highlight. Our first Website We Love comes from Lisa Draisey of |

 Whether it’s at work, a restaurant or the gym, it seems as though iPhones, Androids and iPads are everywhere. According to Digital Buzz, that’s not very far from the truth; in fact, mobile devices are fast becoming the most popular way to access the Web. But what is the difference between a standard website and a mobile site? The easy answer is accessibility. Imagine trying to fit everything on your home page onto your phone’s screen. Not pretty, right? It would be overcrowded, difficult to read, and even harder to navigate. |

 We get it — when it comes to getting listed online, the
process can be overwhelming. The first
step is understanding what terms such as “local search” and “organic search”
mean, and how they relate to your site.
Key Terms
Local Search: The basic definition
revolves around geography. Results are displayed when a potential customer
searches online for a product or service within a specific geographic location.
For example, if you type “landscaping, Boston” into Google, Yahooor Yelp,
it will return Local Search results for landscaping businesses in Boston. |

If you type “group buying” into Google, you’ll get over 44,500,000 results. The most recognized player however, is probably Groupon, a Chicago-based company that has enjoyed explosive growth over the past few years. The business model is simple: Groupon typically keeps half of the money generated from the deal, and the other half goes to the featured retailer. |

Facebook is the world’s most popular social network and many customers have asked us how to set up a fan page for their business similar to the Vistaprint Internet Marketingfan page.
For businesses of all sizes, fan pages are a great place to get to know your customers better. We use the wall as a great place to foster conversations, but you can also use the page to broadcast deals and send out event invitations.
Please keep in mind that the fan page is different than your personal profile.

Your blog posts’ effectiveness increases your blog and website’s performance, boosting return visits. Results can be seen through post visits, commenting on that post and shares of your post on social media sites. Be Yourself and Take Time to Write Blog posts can be most desirable for readers when you give them a unique point of view and tell them something they didn’t know. Spend some time to consider what you want to write- whether it’s announcing an event or sale, sharing updates, or discussing topics of interest to you or your business. |
