As with all of Switchfast's service offerings, we strive to
offer a complete package because we know you save money, time, and
energy when you can just deal with one vendor for all of your
needs. Switchfast offers website design, website development,
search engine optimization, social media management, conversion
optimization, PPC management, website analytics, flash media design
and development, video production, web-based software development,
copywriting, blogging, and marketing consulting.
If your staff wants to alter optimized pages, copy consulting is
included in our monthly SEO package. However, if you don't want to
hassle with the optimization at all, Switchfast has copywriters on
staff that will update and add content at your request, at an
additional fee.
That would not be a problem. We have customers who host their
sites and email separately. In fact, doing so will help you stay
below your hosting storage limits.
That makes sense and is the most cost-effective route for you to
take. It's also one of the reasons why we recommend our CMS and a
new design. A well designed site will be structured in such a way
that won't limit additional pages, and with the CMS, you'll be able
to add content, photos, videos, etc yourself. We would only need to
be brought in if you needed further design and/or programming work
(if you wanted to make significant changes to the
look/functionality of the site).
Our CMS and Hosting package covers use of the CMS, web and email
hosting, and spam filtering.
On a monthly basis, you can receive as much, or as little, data
as you'd like. Some customers request not to be inundated with
data, but our management and research of your site's optimization
would be guided by a set of very detailed reports. We can make
these reports available to you as often as weekly (though our
recommendation would be that it would be more useful for you to
view them monthly).
You will see an immediate increase in your search prominence
from the upfront work that's done. The speed and increments of your
gradual improvement after that depend on how many different sources
you have feeding traffic to your site. Think of your website volume
like a container that you want to fill with water. The more faucets
you have turned on adding to the container, the faster it will get
filled. Adding some complexity to it, there are other sites
competing for your traffic, and some phrases are much more
competitive than others, so alternative sources driving traffic are
important. There will be certain keyphrases that aren't very
competitive and which allowed easy ascension to the first page. For
others the competition is fierce, so getting to the first page, and
staying there, will take time. The more alternative channels we
have open to feed traffic to our site (Pay Per Click, Facebook,
LinkedIn, Blogs, etc), the better we're able to bridge that gap in
the short term, and continue growing traffic over the long
term.
There are many benefits to choosing Switchfast above our
competitors. Here are a few:
- Switchfast excels at strategic planning. While the creative
aesthetic of your website is important, its function is our number
one concern. Is your site meant to produce sales leads? Then it
must be search optimized and it must be intuitively user-friendly.
We'll need to make sure that it's easy for visitors to make contact
and that your call to action is clear and compelling. Is your site
an ecommerce site? We'll need to make sure it has a shopping cart
and proper encryption and security features.
- Access to Switchfast's expansive resources as a premiere
full-service IT firm. We have a robust, reliable network. We have a
full-time software development team that specializes in web-based
applications. We have a 24-hour help desk. Your site is planned by
professional consultants with experience across the entire spectrum
of information technology. Anything you need for your company's
web-related presence, we can provide and support at an expert
level.
- Switchfast specializes in serving your market. As a small
business, we understand the complexities of a limited budget. At
the same time, we understand the importance of friendly,
transparent, and timely customer service. Our services are designed
to be flexible and affordable for the small to medium-sized
business community, and our staff is hired to be helpful and
concerned with our clients' needs. Despite the economic crisis at
hand, we've been fortunate enough to have made Inc 5000's list of
the fastest growing American companies for three consecutive years,
and we owe that growth to our customers. We're confident that if we
continue to provide top-notch service at a reasonable price, you'll
keep us on that list!
