The SEO and Social Media Package: The What and Why of It

Outsourcing Marketing recently launched several online development packages designed to make it easy for individuals and businesses to put together web presence that will make a real positive difference in their reach and profits.

One of the stand-out offerings is the SEO and Social Media Package. This service package is best suited for businesses that already have a website and perhaps some presence in the social media.

If you are dissatisfied with how your website and social media are performing to get you new and return clients, then this is the package for you. Service starts at $499, depending on your requirements.

What Is SEO and SMM?
By far, of all the elements of online presence, it is SEO and SMM that have had the most ups and downs. In design and programming, there are changed standards but somehow you can still have a website with basic HTML (if you wanted one).

With SEO and SMM, the repercussions of not being updated on acceptable practices and standards can mean low performance online. This renders your website and social media presence practically useless. If you can't lead people to your website, then you can't use it to get qualified leads. You do business online through your website. And you lead people to it through your search engine optimisation and social media marketing.

Why SEO and SMM?
You've probably heard of some disastrous run-ins online, wherein a company representative said the wrong thing on social media and it turned everyone against the company.

It's hard to gain customers but, online, you can lose them in seconds.

You need professionals to handle your online presence. Social media management is a precarious undertaking. There are potholes that can ruin what you've done to build up your PR when you make a misstep.

With professionals at the helm, your online persona is well-managed through thoughtful engagement and expert yet personalised demeanour. You can rest assured that you are constantly in touch with your followers, and that you are gaining new ones.

SEO, on the other hand, is at the core of your online rank. This is your main method of gaining new clients. When you rank on top, you get people who search before they shop, anywhere they may be through smartphones and mobile devices. There is no buts about it – you business needs to do search engine optimisation.

Why Get the Package?
From our years of experience, we've come to realise that SEO and SMM go together. Doing one but not the other is an incomplete approach to optimum online presence.

Your SEO gets you up there with content that your target audience looks for. Your SMM shares your links and information to your followers and fans who, in turn, can share with their friends and family. You can potentially reach more and more people when you have engaging posts and content.

Why Outsourcing Marketing?
Experience and expertise are the best combination when it comes to getting a team to do your search engine optimisation and social media marketing. You want a team that knows the layout of the online landscape, inside and out. First, you get to rank. Then, you get traffic and follower. After which, ideally, your tribe increases. You don't have to go viral. But, you do need to consistently expand your reach.

Only the best team in the Central Coast can do the job right, at an affordable rate. This is the rationale behind our online service packages. We've laid out all that you need to have an effective and profitable online presence.

Outsourcing Marketing: Affordable Local Web Design Services in Wyong

It is a requisite to have a website these days regardless of how big or small your business is. Your key consideration is your audience, your target market. When in the past, they turn to their phone book for business information. Now, they just turn to their smartphones. Some days, they might just be in front of their desktop computers – again, to check on something they want to buy.

This is today's consumer reality. You can't ignore the web – no matter what business you're in. You have to be on the internet. And, whatever you have online, it has to be effective. A web presence that's negligible is exactly that. It will not help you reach your market, regardless of how interested they may be. They need to find you first.

In Wyong, Central Coast, the first name in web design and development is Outsourcing Marketing, a family-managed business process outsourcing (BPO) with a local team of designers, programmers, SEO gurus, content developers and online marketers.

The Outsourcing Marketing team is behind several online successes in the Central Coast. Its portfolio of clients includes Water To Go, a Wyong-based company that has experienced significant success online. They are now the first name in pure spring water in Wyong and the rest of the Central Coast – thanks to the website, content and marketing help from Outsourcing Marketing.

Being local really helps when it comes to Wyong web development. You can argue that the website design industry is global and that you can hire someone from practically anywhere in the world. This is true. However, you need a local component to anchor the technical work. It is never just about designing and going online with a website. It is about coming up with a holistic approach in marketing your business through your website. This requires true-blue local knowledge – one that can only come from someone who lives in the same place as you.

The point in all this is not to dissuade you from getting “outside help.” Our business name has “outsourcing” in it, after all. There are cost benefits to this practice. However, we suggest being discerning about the team that you choose. When you outsource, at least, choose one with a local office. Not only are you assured of someone reachable to you whenever you need to discuss your project. You are also guaranteed an approach to your online marketing that is in touch with what your target market would actually respond to.


When you're in Central Coast NSW, talk to Outsourcing Marketing today. We provide you with online presence that puts you on top of your industry. Call today: 4389 4883

Putting Together Your 4X4 Recovery Set

Your 4X4 may be tough but it can still get stuck in deep snow, sand and mad. The elements are unpredictable these days and you have to be prepared, especially if you do a lot of off-roading.

Even when you think that you don't need it yet, make sure to have recovery gears or a recovery set on hand. It is always best to be prepared.

Here are basic tips to putting together your 4X4 recovery set:
1. Pick a good shovel for your recovery kit. When you're stuck somewhere, a shovel can get you out -- or it can help to get you out. Never go without a shovel. This is the least that you can have.

2. Make sure to protect your hands too. When you're trying to get your 4X4 out from being stuck, you need to do hard manual work. Get a good pair of rigger gloves, ideally one that is made out of leather. Keep this dry and securely stashed with your recovery set.

3. A jack is a useful addition to your recovery set too. However, the standard jack may not be enough when you're stuck somewhere offroad. Invest in an exhaust jack or a high-lift jack. If these are too much on the budget, at least have a metal or wood base plate.

4. 10 to 15 meter-long heavy duty straps have a place in your 4X4 recovery set. These straps, when attached to another vehicle or a winch, can help pull your 4X4 out of its tight spot.

5. Speaking of winches, it is ideal that you study how to safely use them first before buying your own. Your 4X4 parts and accessories shop can demo proper usage to you.

You can choose to put together your own 4X4 recovery set or buy a ready set. Ask your dealer about the most reliable brands. Better yet, head to Olmate 4X4. This shop carries only the best in 4X4 accessories and parts. You can always trust the items that they carry.
