Some
Words of Wisdom
With advances in software just about any high
school kid can use a "design wizard" to create a website, but do
you really want that for your site? Likewise, ISP's
(Internet Service Providers) are in the business of providing access
to the internet. All other services offered by ISP's is secondary.
While your ISP may be interested in designing and hosting a web
site, they have no interest in maintaining or marketing your site.
We do.
GNTS
can provide simple html, javascript, simple animation's or custom
graphics to make your web site shine.

Website
Management
|
The
really good web sites aren't created, they evolve. Likewise, its essential
for your website to be kept up-to-date.
Professional
website management provides your site with dynamic content and the
use of fresh data and information. Links from your site need to
be periodically checked and validated.
Visitors
look at dates when they visit site, and there is no bigger turn-off
that something that reads "last updated October 1996". Here
and now are what customers want to see.
The
need for good web site management is especially true for product
orientated business where pricing and availability are subject to
change.
Our
hosting plan includes basic Website Management services, including
site monitoring, link validation, search engine registrations and
indexing.
You
supply the content and GNTS will work with
you to keep you site fresh and interesting for visitors.

Internet
Marketing
|
Establishing
a presence on the Internet is an investment in the future. Unfortunately
with over 90,000 web sites being registered with the major search
engines each day, a simple presence is not enough.
Have
you ever wondered why a list of businesses or specific topics come
up on the first page list after you've made a search using Yahoo,
Webcrawler or Altavista? Its not by chance. Aggressive companies
on the internet work hard using a litany of tricks and tools to
get on the first page of a search dealing with a product or service
they provide.
Some
unscrupulous businesses even trick the search engines into listing
them on the first page of a search even though they sell an unrelated
product.
As
in the real world , your location on the internet means the difference
between making money and closing up shop. Being registered with
a search engine will not add to your bottom line if your business
is listed on page 47 of 340 sites. For
any specific search, it's unlikely that a customer will ever browse
beyond page 3 (top 100 sites).
GNTS has the skills and know how to get you
into the top 100.
We
also have the tools available to keep you there! In addition to
search engines, there are a number of other marketing tools that
we can use to increase traffic and $$$ coming to your site.
Quality
and Service are the fundamental building blocks of a good business
- you shouldn't have to pay a premium for either.
GNTS
will custom build a web based marketing to suit your needs, aspirations
and pocketbook.

Brand
Development
|
Online
Brand development is an essential tool to procure new clients, retain
customers and to establish loyalties.
Although
online branding is similar to that used in the bricks and mortar
world, there are substantial differences. Firstly, there are no
billboards on the information superhighway, just your monitor. How
you use this small screen to get your message across is critical.
Secondly,
unlike television, the computer and particularly the internet is
an engaging medium, that is the user tends to sit forward and interact
with his/her environment. To be effective online, your site has
to entertain and engage visitors.
The
big online players like Disney, Microsoft and CNN all use their
presence to reinforce the perception that consumers already have
of them.
Image
or appearance .... it really can "be everything", at least when
it comes to new customers looking for what you offer. The question
is, does your site reinforce your image? Is it neutral or will it
turn clients off?
GNTS
has the skills to develop you Brand online. Your website and all
other ventures on the internet should clearly reflect your
business acumen and values. We can help.
