How Long Does It Take?

October 9, 2010
A big question we seem to get asked a lot is - "how long do orders take to get done".  Recently, Kristi Ambrose Marketing & Content Solutions has been getting involved in a lot of new projects with a lot of companies.  This includes working with other Internet Marketing companies, customers that order from the site, Joint Ventures like a special VSEO software program that has a Content On Demand Module and of course AmazinCurves.com.  With that said, we have had to hire on more writers than we initially had 5 years ago.  Or even 1 year ago. 

Right now, 245 articles takes our writers about 3.5 days to whiz through them.  I like to take at least 4-5 day's so we can make sure the are edited correctly by our Private Editor. 350 articles takes us about 11 days.  If you need content in a hurry, we can get it done for you!  I am hoping as the next week passes that we will add even more writers on to our basecampHQ (about 15-25).  I should also mention that each writer is screened and is ONLY in the US/UK - which I think is very important for quality.

Also, for client's that would like to order more than 100 blogs/articles from Kristi Ambrose Marketing & Content Solutions (not article marketing) we do offer a special price of $13 a piece rather than $20 a piece.  One stipulation; this must be paid up front.  No if's, and's or but's about it.  We are happy to sign a contract; but the payment option cannot and will not change.

If you note some of the other "popular" companies out there that do Content Creation - Kristi Ambrose marketing & Content Solutions has some of the most inexpensive marketing packages and content creation available.  More importantly, it's quality content!

Lastly, you can STILL get to our site the same way you did right now - http://www.kristiambrosecontent.com, however, you can now also use a MUCH smaller domain name - http://www.kamcs.com to get here EVEN quicker!  Hopefully that will make it a little easier for everyone!

Hope to speak with you soon about your new (or old) website!
 

Why Are Blogs & Content Important For Your Website?

October 7, 2010
So you have a web site, what do you do now? Well the key to having a website is to get traffic to that site. Let's face it if you have a web site that no one is seeing then you are really just wasting your money and your time. The purpose of having your site no matter what industry you are in or what you are using that site for is to get people to see the things you want them to see. How do you accomplish this you ask? It is actually very simple!

You need relevant content to put on your site. The main reason behind having a blog on your site is to get content on your site with relevant keywords that match the service your site provides. Let's say that you have a site related to medical assisting, you are going to want content with related keywords on your blog, so that when someone types something like "How do I become a Certified Medical Assistant?" you will have content with information on becoming a CMA on your blog with "Certified Medical Assistant" as your keyword.

Article marketing is also a very useful tool when it comes to driving traffic to your site. With the right articles and keywords your site could go from zero traffic to being an authority on the service you and your site provide. There are several options available to you when you decide to start a blog or do marketing for your website. You could produce the content yourself and see the benefit that just a few articles can bring your site in the number of visitors.

Or if you are like most people and are not exactly a writer you could hire a professional writing and marketing firm to do it for you. You may be asking yourself what the benefit of having a professional firm provide the content would be. Most professional firms have years of experience and thousands of articles under their belts, so they know the ins and outs of article marketing and content creation and they can provide quality content fast and at an affordable price.

Finding a writing firm is not too difficult of a task, let's say you are in the Pennsylvania area and would like a local firm to handle your needs. Simply type in "content creation companies in pa" in your favorite search engine and have a look at the results. One company available is Kristi Ambrose Marketing & Content Solutions. Our company offers you many choices to fit your needs, with several inexpensive marketing packages that can help you drive more traffic to your site as well as provide your visitors with quality content to learn about the service you are providing.

But if you are looking for something more inclusive you should take a look at our ultimate marketing package, this package includes everything you need for your site to be a highly visited destination on the web. The bottom line is if you want visitors to your site a blog is one of the best tools for the job!
 

Can You Write For My Magazine Or Book?

September 9, 2010
On various occasions we have had people ask us if we could writer for their online magazine or ebook or their offline magazine or book. The answer? Of course! If it involves content or marketing we can help you! One of the nice things about getting a company like Kristi Ambrose Marketing & Content Solutions involved in your offline or online gig, is that we can help in both aspects - the content creation and the marketing. One of the projects we are working on right now that we are partnering up on with another person is an online magazine geared towards women. Right now, it's all online content and marketing. But, eventually down the line, we plan to publish it offline as well. In order to get an idea about the content we are doing for this website, you can see it here: http://www.amazincurves.com. Right now Kristi Ambrose Marketing & Content Solutions is supplying all the content for the website, as well as some of the marketing tactics. The website includes the following categories:

Beauty & Health
Fashion & Accessories
Fashion Shoes
Fashion Bags (purses)
Home Decor
Food & Drink
Model Reviews

The Model Reviews is something new we decided to do. Kristi Ambrose Marketing & Content Solutions is responsible for all things content on http://www.amazincurves.com, including gathering our own questions to ask the models, and calling the models to get the answers from them using a good old digital recorder and some witty commentary! Right now, Kristi Ambrose Marketing & Content Solutions is going to be interviewing Mzz Creole Ladii aka Keti Tunstall. Next week or next month it could be just about anyone else! If you would like us to create a magazine for you like http://www.amazincurves.com, just contact us!

Another feature on the website is the Social Community. This gives everyone a chance to register on the website and talk about whatever is on their minds. Even better, this also can bring more traffic to your website since different people will be talking about different topics. A great way to get indexed!

This is a really fun and really easy way to make money. All you have to do is supply the codes for AdSense, CPA, or whatever else you plan to run on the website, as well as photos (optional), and we can do the rest! If you need marketing for that website on top of the content, we can do this as well.
 

New Monthly Special For August!

August 1, 2010
We decided to offer two monthly specials for the month of August.  The first package, as it says on the website, is a package of 10 articles plus distribution and 10 blogs.  Both of these will include your own keywords and your urls.  Heck, we can even post them for you if you don't have the time.  One thing that a lot of people seem to be doing is really utilizing the articles and blogs to their advantage.  We write the blogs, you put them on your website, and then use the article marketing to get better PR for your site.  Simple as that!  This package is $130.  A great price for what you get!

The second package, which is something we said we would never offer, was a special on the Ultimate Marketing Package or UMP if you think it's too long!  This includes a little bit of everything including Article Marketing, Blogging, Social Networking, Social Bookmarking, Videos, etc etc.  This package is usually $1,000, but we are offering it for $300.  As a customer, you can buy UP to 3 packages for the UMP deal. 

The UMP package is a spectacular package if you are WAY back on the search engine result pages and you want to jump-start your website.  The 10/10 special is really superb for people that NEED content.  But, even more, its great for websites that are mini-sites.  Essentially, you make money from people going to your website by doing Adsense or whatever else.  So getting people TO your website and upping your SERPs is a great way to make some extra money.

Remember, with Article Marketing you will only get more backlinks over time. 

We are still (also) donating 25% of ALL money made from the Kristi Ambrose Marketing & Content Solutions website. 

These are both really amazing packages.  I really can't see us topping this any time soon, so take advantage of the special while you can!
 

Special Project For BrysonRocks.com

July 30, 2010
We have a customer of ours, who I now personally consider a good friend. His 2 year old child Bryson was diagnosed with Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia with MLL.  Bryson was supposed to be done with all of his treatments in May 2010, but they found that he relapsed soon after the tests were done on him. So, Tim, Brysons Dad, has asked me if there is anything I can do for their family.  There are two BIG ways I want to help them.

First off you can see Bryson's website here:  BrysonRocks.com go to this website to read more about Bryson and his type of Cancer and to see photos of this cute little boy! 

The first way I want to help is by contributing 25% of all profits made from the Kristi Ambrose Marketing & Content Solutions website to Bryson and his family.  If you buy from the site, 25% of your purchase will go directly to Bryson, Tim and Stephanie.  You don't need to do anything special.  Just purchase and 25% goes directly to them.

The second thing we would like to do is get into contact with a few of the other non-writers and writers in the Internet community and write content on chosen keywords.  Then, we would use our business to distribute these articles to get their website ranked on the engines.  If this is something you would be interested in contributing to (pro bono) please contact us here.  Once you contact us, we will give you the specifics on what the content should be/include.

If you are not interested in buying from us or contributing content, please by all means go to BrysonRocks.com and donate something at their website.  A little bit goes a long way.  It's important that when you CAN help, that you do help. 

Thank you for your time,
Kristi Ambrose Marketing & Content Solutions
 

Suggest A Monthly Special & Reap The Benefits!

July 25, 2010

We are trying to get more of our customers and clients involved in the business by adding a few additional features that some other companies won't. One of the things we would like to do is get customers involved by getting suggestions on what the next Monthly Special should be. If we pick your monthly special, we will give you extra dollar amounts or percentages off of the special discount price. For example, on our site you can see that for a pack of 50 articles it's $640. If you suggest that we give 50 articles for 25% off (please try to be reasonable!) it would be $480 for customers, but since it was your suggestion, we will give it to you for $360. Essentially you would be getting a pretty darn good discount for this and you can use it for the entire month your suggestion was chosen for.

Any questions? Contact us!

The Monthly Discount "prize" is available to anyone, anywhere, for any services or products you see on our website. Again, try to be fair in the Monthly Discount suggestions!

 

Email Marketing - How Do I Send Out An Effective Email?

July 23, 2010
Email marketing CAN be a pretty nice tactic to use for advertising/promotion.  However, I have to state that before you even bother to send out an email, make sure you are doing it the legit way.  Please don't send out spam email.  First off, its not ethical!  Second off, what do YOU do when you receive "spam" you don't want?  You probably do what every other person in the world does - you hit that little "mark as junk" button!  Paying someone to send emails is even worse.  You are essentially wasting your money that you could be spending on a more legit tactic! 

Email marketing is considered as one of the most effective ways of online marketing besides content creation services or article marketing.  With the proper SEO you can get a number of potential customers that visit your website. You can then get the addresses of them and stay in touch with them by emails by adding an optional "newsletter" option on your website. You can inform them about your new products or offers with your email. Sending an effective email can be very tricky. Most of the emails are recognized as spam by email providers. Even if they reach the inbox, they are oftentimes not read by the clients and will be deleted. Here are some tips for sending effective emails for attracting customers.

 - Collect the data of your customers and create separate segments like the customers who purchased one time, the customers who purchased more than once, the customers that didn't purchase, but want to be notified of sales, etc. You can use the available tools for creating targeted email campaigns such as iContact. Frankly, I used Aweber for years and years. But, after a few heated discussions with them I decided to quit the "world-wide leader in Email Marketing" and try someone else. It really depends on whom you want to work with when it comes to choosing a program and what options you want. Honestly, I use a sweet little FREE service called Mail Chimp. It does everything I need it to. Even if you needed to upgrade to add more emails to the account, it's still cheaper than Aweber. But, again - this will depend on you. After collecting their data, you can send personalized emails for grabbing their attention.

- Avoid using "spam" words. If you use spam words, your chances of going in someone's spam box triple. If the site you are using has a Spam Word Alert - use it! This is a nifty little program built inside the mailer that will tell you at what percentage your email seems "spammy". If its pretty low, say 1-10%, don't worry about it. However, if the program states that your email is considered 50% spam, you are going to want to change the wording. To find the most prevalent spam words to keep them OUT of your emails or newsletters, you can check out this link for 200 Spam Words to see more information

- Make sure the subject is simple and understood by everyone. Avoid capitalization, exclamation marks, weird symbols, etc., for not being flagged as spam by email providers or recipients. The shorter the subject the higher the chances of the receiver opening it. So keep the subject as short as you can, but detailed. The subject line should be related to the content of your email. Most of the email readers turn on the preview pane, so don't forget to include the subject line in the body of the email.

- Use the subject lines of the emails to make the readers curious. Many people are interested to know about new things so whenever there is a chance, share the interesting news of your site with them. You can create a sense of urgency like "Paul, offer exists for three days only". And on the subject line you use can state the benefits they will get from reading your email. Remember the subject plays a vital role in opening and reading an email and thus promoting your business.

If you need help writing a newsletter or email for your customers, Kristi Ambrose Marketing & Content Solutions can help you out with these! We can write one, two, three or however many you need. Email us for a price quote!
 

The Ultimate Marketing Package Helps You In Attracting More Customers

July 20, 2010

Businesses need exposure. It doesn't matter if you have a website online or if you have an actual location offline. Getting exposure means promoting your business to people that can use your product or your services. In order to get exposure online, you must have a website. It's kind of funny, I would assume everyone these days would know to have an online site for their services or product.

But, sometimes people just don't understand how awesome the Internet is and how many ops this can bring to you. However, it is a big challenge to attract more readers to your website. Blogging helps you in attracting traffic. Communication is very important. You can communicate to them with your web content.

The content in your website should be unique and informational and can be understood by everyone. Use simple language and explain the features of your products in a how-to do way. The profiles of your partners and interviews with notable personalities also help to some extent in connecting with your audience. The blog content is used to not only help your readers understand what you are selling, but it teaches them things as well. If you make a blog just selling stuff, chances are no one will be interested.

No one "likes" being SOLD. Instead, make it interesting, fun, and educational. Teach them something! Using blog and web content is also a way to get search engines to crawl your page, pick up your keywords, read your meta tags and keywords and of course index your website. Article Marketing works in the same way. Its used to enthuse the reader, but its also used for indexing and creating backlinks. The more backlinks you have, the better rank your website will have in the search engines.

Community building is very important for getting more fans to your website. Regular emailing to customers is not being sufficient enough; involve them in the discussions and feedback. Reward the well contributed customers. Or give them opportunity to be brand ambassadors by providing designs or logos for your products.

Sharing is an excellent opportunity for spreading your messages. So share everything about your products from blog posts to photos, videos, etc., via social networking sites. Often share the content of specific ideas especially branded pieces. This enhances search engine optimization as well as potential readers. And again, you aren't just selling to them. You are showing them that you are a normal person, just like they are, but the smaller part of you is the selling part of you. You can catch more bees with honey.

Remember that saying? Well, you can catch more customers if you don't act like a salesman.  Even on this blog, we are obviously selling something.  But, we also teach visitors some things they may not be familiar with.  It builds a bond.  And besides, who doesn't love sharing something they have knowledge about.  You simply cannot put a price tag on that!

Offering discounts, contests and exclusive specials enhance your sales. You can double your sales when you inform them with social sharing sites like Twitter, Facebook, etc. Maintaining good relationship with key bloggers and keeping in touch regularly with current or prospective customers help you attaining more traffic.

Use a specific targeted audience. Be ready to provide the needful information at free of cost or answer the questions for problems of customers. Offer them the leads to up-sell on premium packages. This seems to lose you money at first, but ultimately you will get more clients on long-term basis which will make up for any money that was lost. I'm not saying lose $50,000, but if you gotta spend money to make money!

If any of the above does not work for you, then contact our content creation services for promoting your website. Many content creation companies in PA offer ultimate marketing package for promoting content. They look after everything from writing articles about your products and website to sharing them in social networking sites and so much more.

Keywords Play A Major Role For Increasing Potential Clients

June 15, 2010

As keywords play a major role for increasing web traffic, you have to include them carefully. Short keywords are single phrases, but long-tail keywords have three or more words as a phrase. These are more specific on focusing the content and get the attention of customers easily.

As a result potential customers who actually want to buy the product search for it. In other words, most of the customers who search for the product are interested to buy them.

And of course it may increase targeted traffic to your site by placing back links to your site from your blog posts or social networking sites. But beware don't put the irrelevant links. As we have discussed above long-tail keywords are used for more specific information, so the back links given by you should offer relevant information.

Use different long-tail keywords which have similar meaning to focus on a specific topic at your landing page. For example, if you are offering content creation services, then include the keyword about the content creation services of some companies or content creation companies in PA.

Create multiple pages for attracting human as well as robot readers. Optimization of your landing pages for each keyword is important. Include carefully the page title, headers, description and images. Check for title tags that became popular in 24hours time frame using keyword research tool.

Insert those keywords in your content three to four times naturally. Make sure the content on each page should be unique. In this way you can attain search engine optimization naturally. Though the long-tail keywords focus on specific subject, short keywords play a major role in attaining more traffic. Also, when you use phrases rather than keywords (one words) you can also end up with a lot less competition for that specific key phrase, and with billions of websites online today fighting for the first page, it's a good idea to cut down on competition any way you can!

So use as many short keywords as possible for enhancing web traffic. In this way you can attract more customers. You can request them to provide their emails that visit your website and contact them later. Anyway long-tail keywords are ideal for connecting with potential customers. This is the ultimate way to attract specific traffic.
