Successful businesses use these principles on a daily basis to move forward

Kelowna, BC -- (SBWIRE) -- 03/31/2014 -- According to the Canadian Internet Registration Authority, Canadians use the Internet more than individuals anywhere else in the world, spending an average of 45.6 hours on the Internet each month. The world average comes in at only 24.4 hours. In addition, Canadians watch more videos online than others do, with the average person viewing 300 videos in this time period. "Web designers need to take information such as this into account when creating a website for a business and choose a company specializing in Web Development for Calgary that has the skills to create a website meeting the needs of Canadian consumers," Shae Inglis of Acro Media Inc. explains.

Acro Media doesn't just focus on web design either as they understand a website is only one portion of a business. Although the website may be a consumer's first introduction to the business, the site must offer certain things to turn visitors into prospects. In addition, a company needs to understand what is required if one wishes to become a market leader. "Web Design? - We got you covered here and in numerous other areas. Acro Media Inc. created the ebook "The 8 Principles of Online Success" to help clients achieve their dreams by increasing conversion rates, among other things. Thanks to the amount of time Canadians are spending online, the average website is likely being seen. It's what one does once the visitors arrive that is important and that's where Acro Media comes in," Inglis continues.

Acro Media Inc. wants clients to understand that Web Development for Calgary remains important as one cannot overlook the importance of web design that meets the needs of clients and has them staying with the site long enough to improve conversion rates. Turn to Web Design Kelowna - The only Local place for assistance in creating a web site, improving conversion rates, reducing bounce rates, and more.

Scrolling Sites and Simplified Content Are Two Trends Businesses Should Examine

Kelowna, BC -- (SBWIRE) -- 01/08/2014 -- 2014 has arrived, and the new year likely heralds many changes to Web Design Vancouver. Experts predict simple color schemes will make a comeback, designers will experiment with various types of typography to make sites unique and videos will become more commonplace. "Certain trends tend to lend themselves to one type of site or another, yet some trends work with any website, such as scrolling sites, and many companies are expected to adopt this technique with the help of a Vancouver web development firm," Shae Inglis of Acro Media Inc. declares.

Scrolling sites continue to be a trend Kelowna Web Design firms turn to in an effort to impart more information to consumers without making them feel overwhelmed. Thanks to responsive web design and increased white space, designers find this technique is being used more frequently in a wide variety of sites. "The benefit of long scrolling sites lies in the fact that the user often doesn't realize how much information they are taking in, and they tend to stay on the site longer. The web design firm uses techniques, such as changing layouts, to ensure this is the case," Inglis explains.

In addition to scrolling sites, experts believe simplified content will dominate in 2014, with websites limiting text areas to 250 characters or less. Making this change allows site visitors to scan the page and identify those areas they wish to explore further quickly and easily. "Internet users tend to have an attention span of approximately eight seconds, and website owners need to remember this when designing a site. With short easy blocks of text, the visitor can quickly find what he or she is looking for, click on a link and go straight to that information. The ease of doing so will have the visitor coming back in the future when additional details are needed," Inglis points out.

Web design techniques continuously change as do the tastes of consumers. "Every business needs to reevaluate their website design on a regular basis to ensure it meets the needs of their target audience. Doing so allows a business to remain competitive in a rapidly changing world," Inglis proclaims.

Digital Marketing Firm Provides Arsenal of Tools To Increase ROI and Increase Traffic

Kelowna, BC -- (SBWIRE) -- 01/08/2014 -- Industry statistics report 100 billion searches every month on Google or 3.3 billion a day. The undisputed king of search engines, Google rankings mean everything to businesses, small and large. However, smaller businesses are especially struggling to have their listings seen by the masses. With this in mind, Shae Inglis, spokesperson for Acro Media, recently announced an SEO Vancouver local marketing campaign aimed at helping small businesses in the area obtain more leads and a higher conversion rate.

Says Ingliss, "We can't guarantee customers they'll be the #1 site on a Google search within a week, however, we can set their sights on it and work to make it a reality. With our small business services, we take the frustration out of search engine optimazation. There are a lot of business owners out there with similar headaches. Maybe the business is not getting the results expected, or maybe it's not getting results at all. Maybe good things are happening, but it's costing way too much. Many business owners thought that the spending would stop once their web design was finished, but that's simply not the case."

In light of this, Acro Media now offers custom web design services, online marketing, social media to target specific markets, custom e-commerce solutions and smart phone apps and mobile sites. Inglisss confirms, "There are lots of things that can contribute to a site's ineffectiveness, but often the key factor is ineffective Search Engine Marketing (SEM). SEM and all its fixings is a cornerstone of site performance. Business owners may have a beautiful web design, but if it doesn't capitalize on Internet marketing, you've got a problem."

The digital marketing company offers an arsenal of services to conquer any online challenge, says Ingliss. "We sit down and discuss each business' situation individually, helping them in the areas they need it most. For some businesses, it's a matter of being baffled by online marketing and really having no idea where to start. For others, it's a more advanced issue, like converting their existing website to a mobile one or creating an app for increased traffic. We believe a good agency will collaborate with you, get to know your business, and help you make strategic marketing decisions when it comes to SEM. We aim to be that business with all of our offerings to the small local business."

Ingliss concludes, "At Acro Media, we will always strive to keep all our clients ahead of the curve, in a world of constant changes. We tie a return on investment (ROI) value to the campaign, and justify the SEM spend needed to generate that ROI. Together with you, the agency explores SEM's full potential for increasing your online effectiveness."

Specialists In Online Marketing Emphasize Significance Of Proper Technique Use

Kelowna, British Columbia -- (SBWIRE) -- 11/26/2013 -- Statistics from the marketing industry reveal 70 percent of small business owners have taken classes on Search Engine Optimization in an attempt to improve their online presence on their own while only 47 percent of those are seeing any actual results from such ventures. In fact, less than 13 percent of entrepreneurs who create their own websites and marketing campaigns are confident they are using the tactics they learned correctly. In light of these figures, Acro Media Inc. has launched increased efforts to help the remaining 87 percent who still need assistance with improving various elements of their website design.

Shae Inglis of Acro Media Inc. confirmed, "At this point, everyone who owns a business knows the importance of a strong online presence, but few are seeing the results they hoped for from their current SEO strategies. Those who are seeing results often feel they are spending more on their web design than they seem to be getting in return. We can help them with any aspect of their search engine marketing; whether they need to start from scratch or simply need advice on updating their content a little more easily, we can offer a solution."

Though creating a showy website helps attract visitors, there are a number of other key elements involved in actually converting those visitors to customers. While more than half of the websites currently available seem to have the right factors in place, their owners admit those sites take an average of 6.5 seconds to load. Users report they generally leave a site if it takes more than 4 seconds to load, increasing the bounce rate more than 100 percent for those sites that leave them waiting. Inglis noted companies experiencing this type of situation are wasting their time and money on design, leaving them with a poor return on investment; however, Acro Media Inc. has been known to help such companies increase their ROI by more than 100 percent.

Posting eye catching display ads on other websites popular among a company's targeted demographic can greatly increase a business's traffic and conversion rate. Inglis mentioned Acro Media excels at creating display ads, as well as individualized plans for implementing them. Relevant, effective keyword and key phrase use continues to hold significance in the SEO world, but even their arrangement can increase search engine ranking by a considerable margin.

Concluded Inglis, "The importance of SEO is no secret, but effective techniques still seem to elude countless business owners. As the #1 site for web design, we can increase their ROI more than they probably imagine possible. With the right combination of impressive images on their website as well as others, appropriate content strategically placed to create numerous links to and from their site, the right amount of specifically targeted social media exposure and other factors in place, we can help them create the rankings they are striving for. Potential clients are encouraged to visit acromedia.ca to see what we can do for them."

As Experts In The Field, Acro Media Offers An Array Of Internet Marketing Services

Kelowna, British Columbia -- (SBWIRE) -- 09/30/2013 -- Marketing campaigns in recent history reached their target audiences through television, radio, newspapers and magazines; however, due to current advances in technology, these avenues are becoming increasingly ineffective. Statistics indicate 90 percent of the viewing public omit television commercials. Customized programming options have all but eliminated radio as a viable marketing route. Magazines, newspapers and other physical publications are steadily giving way to their digital counterparts.

In light of these facts, the necessity of internet marketing has become increasingly prominent for businesses across the globe. Having foreseen this trend long before the general public became aware of its development, Acro Media Inc. has been steadily modifying their strategies for Internet Marketing Vancouver. In realizing the growing need for businesses to improve their online presence, the company has launched a campaign to make business owners aware of the importance of effective Web Design Vancouver.

Shae Inglis of Acro Media Inc. explained, "The majority of business owners basically face the same issues when trying to succeed in today's market. They get little or no results with their current marketing techniques or they are forced to spend all their profit to achieve positive results. This can stem from a number of causes, ranging from attempting to do their own web design and marketing to choosing an inexperienced or poorly managed design firm. At Acro Media, we provide all the web design and SEO services business owners need to succeed and strive to form an effective partnership with our clients, in order to provide them with the best results possible."

According to Inglis, many business owners know very little about SEO and effective modern marketing. Experts indicate ranking among the first page of search engine results is vital, as only 10 percent of viewers venture beyond that first page. Eye catching graphics, relevant content and user friendly features are all factors in bringing in traffic and acquiring and maintaining a loyal customer base. Inglis also mentioned current trends include blogging and social media, as well as numerous links for transitioning between various websites.

Inglis concluded, "We provide our clients with search engine and social media marketing, custom web design, link building, display and pay per click advertising, vital social media exposure and link building, XML sitemaps and all the tools necessary for clients to maximize their virtual presence.

Online Marketing Tasks, A Must Do For Most Companies, Taken Over By Marketing Firms

Kelowna, British Columbia -- (SBWIRE) -- 06/21/2013 -- According to a recent statistic released, companies that blog get 55% more web traffic. Granted, more web traffic is not the only goal, Shae Inglis, spokesperson for Acro Media, a Vancouver Internet Marketing firm said, but, it's a good start.

Explains Shae Inglis, "Every company knows they should be Facebooking, blogging, Tweeting, Pinning, liking, commenting, following and posting. Sadly this alone isn't enough, social media needs to be part of your overall online marketing strategy. But where do you start? And where do you find the time? These are the timeless questions many business owners, small and big are asking themselves, and why many are making consultation appointments with us these days. Most companies don't have the time, inclination or staff to do these things. Most people in charge of their websites would rather get a root canal than have to update their web content. For those of you who hoped social media was a temporary fad, guess again. Google now gives valuable positioning credit to companies with social buzz. That's where companies like ours step in and help out."

Many business owners feel overwhelmed by the thought of running corporate social media campaigns says Shae Inglis. They additionally feel like their own efforts at social media posts are lacking and they feel frustrated with trying to generate followers online. "While Facebook and Twitter are fun efforts for the users, they're big business for corporate entities. It takes a strategy and a plan to do it right. Online success doesn't come by accident. It's something you plan to happen." Shae Inglis continues, advocating the use of an marketing and web design firm to get the results a business needs. "Don't just close your eyes and hope for the best. You're committed to conquering your online challenges. But is the agency equally committed? If an agency is talking more than 70% of the time, they're likely more focused on selling you on features and benefits than on learning how to help you. Good companies address your challenges and desires. You should be asked "What issues do you currently face online?" and "What do you hope to achieve this year?" They should be listening to your replies and planning a customized plan specifically for you based on your responses."

British Columbia, Canada -- (SBWIRE) -- 04/15/2013 -- Most companies don't grasp the importance of creative design when it comes to their website. If a website bring in traffic, many companies feel no changes need to be made. "Websites follow trends just as fashion and hairstyles do. Customers need to pay attention to these trends and make changes as needed," Shae Inglis explains.

SEO experts in Vancouver follow these trends and assist customers in updating their site to reflect these trends and generate better returns. Website design involves more than setting up a site and forgetting about it unless an issue arises. "Clients need to understand that the site design may not actually be the problem. In many cases, it's a matter of the site not adequately presenting the information or presenting the information in such a way that the users can't follow a logical path to get from one portion of the site to another," Shae Inglis continues.

Acro Media Inc not only works with clients to determine where the issues lie, they work with clients to provide updates, support and revisions while offering tools to measure the success of changes made. "Clients who do follow these trends often make the mistake of incorporating a number of changes to the site simultaneously. Website visitors may find these changes confusing and choose to look elsewhere. The key to creative design is knowing what works and why to ensure only those changes which reflect the right image for the company are used," Shae Inglis goes on to say.

"Look to our portfolio of clients to see how it is we excel. Most parents are familiar with Munchkin products, such as the Dora the Explorer sippy cup. Acro Media Inc worked with Munchkin to provide strategy and planning, creative design and content management services to improve their site in every way. Birthday in a Box contacted Acro Media when they found themselves in need of website assistance and the team went to work, providing logo design, search engine optimization and more. Clients come with different needs so Acro Media works to find solutions to the challenges being faced without requiring a package deal be purchased," Shae Inglis states.

About Acro Media Inc
Acro Media Inc differentiates itself from other SEO companies by listening to the customer first, before discussing business goals.

If any details need to be clarified, the staff asks questions to ensure both parties understand each other. Why choose an SEO company who spends more time talking than listening when Acro Media is waiting to help?

Kelowna, British Columbia -- (SBWIRE) -- 02/06/2013 -- Statistics indicate there are more than one million small businesses in Canada alone, and an excess of six million in the United States. Related studies show that having a successful website can boost sales for small and medium sized businesses by at least 56 percent, but only about 32 percent of these companies in Canada are taking advantage of the benefits brought about by professional web design vancouver. In an effort to increase the number of businesses reaping the positive rewards from a well built, customized vancouver web design, Acro Media Inc. announces the launch of their unique website designs built around the needs of their clients.

Shae Inglis, spokesperson for Acro Media Inc., disclosed, "Having been involved in building websites using the three different options available; the do it yourself online template, an independent contractor and a full service custom website design company, I can share some quick insight on what each process involves. The DIY template can be fun, but it may not look as amazing as your favorite websites. You may be left wishing you could do more, after spending a good chunk of your own time creating it. If this is the case, you may have to spend extra money and find an independent contractor to help you out after all that hard work. With an independent contractor, the best case is that you have an amazing experience and you end up paying a little less than you thought you would. The worst case is that you need to search for a more experienced and competent company to redo your entire site. To top it off, you paid more than you thought you would while losing precious time."

Inglis continued, "Finally, there is the full service website design vancouver company. If it is within your budgetary consideration and website ambition, I highly recommend looking at this option. Custom website design companies offer a level of service quality that you can not find elsewhere. This includes professional consultation throughout the entire process. There are many stages in a comprehensive development approach. These stages include assistance in initial planning, creative vision and design, software and web development, content management training and post launch warranty service. On top of the development services, many custom website design companies (such as Acro Media) also offer a range of online marketing services, such as social media strategies, Pay-Per-Click campaigns and search engine optimization techniques. Essentially, the role of a custom website design company is to ask you the right questions, not the other way around. This is what we bring to our clients."

Kelowna, British Columbia -- (SBWIRE) -- 01/30/2013 -- According to statistics released recently, the once popular free websites and templates utilized by small businesses and individuals have seen a decline in users during the last five years. According to Shae Inglis, spokesperson for Vancouver Internet marketing company Acro Media Inc, this trend is now going toward custom websites, instead.

Says Inglis, "Businesses need more than just a presence these days with their websites. They need a site generating income and one with a clear purpose for its visitors. A website should be a salesman for your company, not just a brochure. With custom websites, a company's vision is clear and customers know exactly what they need to do to purchase the goods or services."

Inglis says many businessmen assume the problem is in the design, but that's not always the case. Says Inglis, " The problem may not be in the design, but in the site's inadequate presentation of information, its unclear user paths or its inability to generate leads. Make sure you and the agency openly discuss the rationale behind the requirement for a new design. A good agency will offer solutions that best address your business aims."

Inglis continues, "Web design companies in Vancouver should hold themselves accountable for any claims they make regarding what the new design will achieve. How and what will they measure? How frequently will they report? What performance aspects may be tracked in the website analytics? Answers to these will distinguish the agencies that really care about your business from those simply looking for a quick sale."

Inglis gives the following questions to business owners as a way to judge web designers. "What platform do they recommend that best enables your site to achieve your business goals? Upon what findings and understandings are their recommendations based? What support and marketing services do they offer in order to grow your online business? By asking the right questions, you set yourself up for success with your website, making it a money-making tool instead of just a window to your business."

"The old templates had their place early on in Internet marketing, but now, a company wanting to succeed needs to keep up with the competition and make their websites fully functional. This type of advanced design simply can't be done utilizing a template website. Your whole SEO marketing is based on links coming back to your website. A business owner has to think about what image he wants to present." Inglis explains.
