What makes a sales website effective, particularly one that is selling primarily a small "business-to-business" consulting service? Specifically, what features will cause the viewer to part with money, pick up the phone, fill in a form? How does it differ from traditional print ads? Is it all about headlines, bullet points, subheads, descriptive paragraphs, testimonials, case studies? How does the design facilitate sales? What about the architecture of the site? What things DON'T work on the internet page? | |

Simplicity, and a lot of white space. Check out the Master: AdSense: https://www.google.com/adsense/ AdWords: https://adwords.google.com/select/ If you explore these 2 sites, you'll get an idea of what works. What doesn't work is NOT there. |

I didn't mean for you to look at placement of their ads on websites, or even to think about the product at all. Google is conducting business to business sales on those pages. Actually, it doesn't matter what the product or service is, you missed the point, and I stand by my premise that there is a LOT to be learned from how Google sells their ads. |

Several Suggestions
From: arrowbee-ga on 03 Jan 2006 18:44 PST |
A couple recurrent themes I have seen with web developing and business in general: 1) Include valuable information for readers. Instructive articles that illustrate your knowledge. Prove to them you can help their business by offering them insightful information the second they visit your webpage. 2) Update this information. Start a free business newsletter that is e-mailed once a month. If you keep providing interested people with valuable information they will grow to trust you and, hopefully, enlist your service when they seek the direct help of a professional. 3) Provide case studies. Testimonials. How have other companies prospered from your expertise. People want to know they aren't the guinea pig... your services have worked for others and it can work for them too. 4) I would recommend you glance over the message boards at two websites. Amazon.com - Amazon's affiliate program has constant banter about creating and designing webpages for the purpose of selling. Although much of it is directed at increasing affiliate sales, you will find plenty of very valuable information here. WebMonkey.com - this offers the technical side of creating a good webpage - everything from beginner to expert. If you're designing the page yourself you should definitely check this out. Hope this helps. Let me know. ~Arrow~ |
