6 Problem Areas Your Website May Have
Posted By Karen on February 1, 2010
I attended a great webinar today with Rick Hubbard and Phillippa Gamse – two experts in the marketing field.
Phillippa reviews websites to find all those little holes, or leaks as she puts it, that allow visitors to seep through. She gave an example of a boat with leaks in it. And, often the site owner is not even aware of these leaks.
I know this picture isn’t a sinking boat, but I really like the picture. 
Six common leaks in your website:
1. You get traffic to your site, but the visitors do not convert. They just leave. Maybe they don’t like the look of your site – who knows.
2. The visitor may stay, but can’t find what they’re looking for, or can’t find it easily enough.
3. There is NO Call-to-Action! Y
4. You’re devoting too much time on funneling the wrong kind of traffic to your site.
5. You lack branding.
6. You lack credibility.
My next post, I’ll tell the fix to these leaky problems.
To start though, when creating a website, you MUST PLAN and think through. Know what you’re looking for and who you’re targeting.

Strange this post is totaly unrelated to what I was searching google for, but it was listed on the first page. I guess your doing something right if Google likes you enough to put you on the first page of a non related search.
Hey, Internet Banking,
That’s fine with me! I guess google just picks up the word Internet in combination and separately.
If you happen to stop back here, I’d be really interested to know what you were searching for.
Thanks for letting me know.
I would have to say this is an awfully informative post that needs mentioning elsewhere.
Thanks for stopping by, All. And, thank for taking the time to comment!
