iBusinessLogic Real Estate on Wordpress

A new informational post by: iBusinessLogic,

No B.S. Web Development!

What should a website accomplish for your business?

Much depends upon what type of business you have but we can share some
of the basics that are common expectations for business owners.

• A Business Website – should be informative – It should provide the potential consumer with the required confidence to make the decision to make a call or place an online order.  If your website looks too flashy, or if your website looks like a quick web builder site, will your customer have that confidence factor to call you? – More importantly, does your site have the information your customers need to make that momentous decision to call you over your competition?
• A Business Website – should be capable of growing with the business, adapting to changes in pricing, or products, or services. The website is a reflection of what it is you offer to the public, it is the catalog of your business and it is the best advertising money you can possibly spend.  Over the life of a properly designed website, your business should realize thousands upon thousands of impressions on the public, impressions add up to leads, leads become sales.
• A Business Website – should be dynamic. This means that it should be capable of offering a multitude of media to the visitor. – Text is the king of all media still but video and audio along with stunning images are also very important for some niches.  Your website should allow for all of these media presentations and it should be relatively easy for you to say, add a you tube video or a podcast if you choose to do so.
• A Business Website – Can offer online sales, document downloads, protected representative or client access, image galleries, video galleries, auto responders, daily specials, video tours, and unique content that you as the business owner wants to share with your customers and potential customers.

iBusinessLogic of Tampa Bay, Florida has an extensive portfolio of completed and under construction website projects. We thought it might be a good idea to list these projects, past and present in a clear, concise directory on our own website. This way you may be able to get a better idea of what we have done, what we
can do and who we have worked for. Most of the links in this directory are live and will lead you to the website developed by iBusinessLogic. If you would like to speak with the client who commissioned a particular site, we just ask that you call us first to be sure that we can get you the proper person to speak with.

Ask for Scott Pooler and I am the director of iBusinessLogic.com, if you have any questions or inquiries please ask…

At iBusinessLogic, we offer No BS web development!

This means we use the latest in technology and our own
creative experience to craft websites for our small business and
local/national customers that work! These websites work for our customers and not the other way around, and they are
very very easy to manage.

Which of these situations do you relate to?

• You have a new company and want to launch a professional-looking website quickly, your budget is tight but you must have something up on your launch date.
• You know you need a website, but are not sure what benefits to expect other than “branding”.
• You have been in business a while, your website looks dated, you have no way to update it yourself and you dread calling the guy who made it for you because he is never available.
• Your original site is OK – but you get no leads and no one will tell you why?
• You are tired of paying for traditional advertising and getting very little in return.
• You don’t want a cookie cutter template site, like the offerings found on craigslist or even on big name sites like Quicken

We can relate to these situations, because we have been there and done that.

iBusinessLogic is a Local – Not outsourced – Website development company. We craft each and every website commissioned by our clients ourselves in house. We do it with caring and love because we want to stick with our clients through thick and thin. We also know that some of our clients prefer to not be “locked” into a long term contract. They don’t want to have to rely on just one individual or company for their websites future health and maintenance. If the situation works out, great, but if it does not what is the end game? What is your exit strategy? We are here to tell you…

iBusinessLogic builds sites only on widely used and easily updated Content Management Systems. What does this mean?

This means that not only will we teach you how to add your own pages and information on your site (if you like) but if for any reason, say I get run over by a truck, or you move to Kansas and don’t want to work over the phone, any other qualified CMS developer can help you with your site in the future. No, this is not the standard website development company business plan. Most developers want you to be tied to them forever and if something goes wrong, or personalities do not mesh, they just abandon the project and you – the business owner is left holding a bag of html. You don’t want that, and at iBusinessLogic neither do we.
We want you to be happy with our services and remember us for future projects. Your site is yours, and we are just your highly qualified support team. No matter if you need one website or ten websites, we can make it happen

Ask for Scott Pooler and I am the director of
iBusinessLogic.com, if you have any questions or inquiries please ask…

This project is something I have wanted to do for a long time, frankly our old portfolio page was just simply not all that user friendly but like a professional auto mechanic, web developers never seem to find time for the projects we need to do at home. Now anyone can go to our new portfolio, which is really a directory, and find completed projects and projects under construction of all kinds. Joomla and WordPress Content Management System Development is our specialty so these projects are the ones we have presented on our directory.

Use the portfolio to inspire your thoughts on how you would like your web site to look and feel.  I have had many customers sit down with me and after I showed them some of the work I have done, they get very excited.  The possibilities start to percolate inside the creative mind of the client when they see what can be done, it is at this time that I usually get a shopping list of features and designs that the new client wants to emulate from a completed project.

There is absolutely nothing wrong with using features of other websites, as long as your content is original and you brand your site to be yours alone, popular features and great ideas are always good to incorporate into a new project.

So… take a look around our portfolio, grab an idea, think about how you want your site to look and feel.  If it can be done, we can do it for you.

Thanks for checking it out!

Lately I have been concentrating on many aspects of eCommerce development while creating my latest project BonanzleStore

Selling Today for

$550.00

Yes, Wordpress is a free download and it is an incredible blog platform but setting up Wordpress as an eCommerce and affiliate machine like this takes time and effort. Free themes and simple downloads will not work as this site setup does. I will include 1 hour of training with this sale and will offer an ongoing maintenance contract to the buyer if they need help managing the site and the eCommerce aspects.

This sale is a steal and is only offered at this price because the previous owner paid some on the project and because I am not in the retro clothing business

Can be added for new Owner

• Retro Clothing Forum – build a community of Retro clothing lovers
• Classifieds Marketplace – sell advertising and or sell classified ads
• Social Network - Add a Face book page, integrate Twitter, Become involved – this is your new home base
• Amazon – Affiliate product feeds from Amazon are available and they pay well – better than eBay these days
• Much Much More

This site has a great foundation to build upon, all the hard work is done and the new owner simply needs to come in and become involved. This is not a get rich quick scheme, I will not tell you that money will fall from the Internet sky…

Yet… if you work at this site (By adding items for sale and interesting content for readers and people looking for retro clothing) and therefore develop an audience with the tools and features that are already in place… you can start to build a brand and see a return on this investment.

You will be responsible for your inventory sourcing if you want to offer inventory for sale but this site could build an affiliate income that would be a nice second income for your family.

This is pretty much an SEO on autopilot website. Simply add your fresh and original content and climb in Organic search.

Of course you could buy traffic with Adwords as well

Digital Signage is the fastest growing segment of the advertising marketplace.

Retailers and Hoteliers know digital signs get attention from the public in addition to being one of the most cost efficient ways to present a message.

Features of Digital Signage:

• Immediate Media Messaging
• Attractive and Eye Catching
• Updated at a moments notice
• More Effective than Static Displays
• Display Multi-Media
• Sound Capable
• Feature Video or Image Displays
• PowerPoint Capable
• Advanced Flash Options Available
• Wi-Fi capable displays offer unlimited flexibility and media options such as weather updates, stock quotes or a presentation of specials from your online store through RSS feeds.

Business owners are aware of the effect that good advertising has on the bottom line of any business. Present your message to your customers with digital signage…

Rotating Marketing Message

Counter-top Digital Displays at Checkout

Window Menu or Feature Item Digital Presentations

Cavalcade of Homes on your Realtor Desk or in an Open House

Interactive Product Description with a Video Presentation

Interior Image slide show of accommodations at Hotel Check-In

Mouth watering display of the breakfast or dinner buffet offering a discount for guests

Reminders of associated services your business may provide

Waiting room reminders for annual checkups or service specials

The list of useful business applications for digital signage is endless. Its a smart and very effective way to optimize the space available in your place of business while saving on printing and other sign costs.

So why do we not see a digital sign in every business in America?

In today’s economy the main concern for small business owners is the cost associated with digital signage. Until now large companies with multi-million dollar marketing budgets have been the customers for this new advertising media. The displays have been quite expensive and special programming was required to make these signs work.

With Simple Displays by iBusinessLogic all of the worry associated with the cost of digital signage is no longer a factor. Any small business in America can afford digital signage and really, can you afford not to have it?

Display sizes can be as modest or as large as is required, (from 12″ to an entire wall) after all you do not necessarily want a 64 inch display on your checkout counter now do you?

iBusinessLogic’s Simple Displays can set up your business with the hardware and software to operate your own digital image or video sign today.

We will even create graphics for your digital media sign and change the message as often as you wish.

Getting started is easy, just give us a call

Legal Website Using Content Management Powered by Wordpress

Keith Sanders Law P.A. is a local attorney in St Pete Beach, Florida who specializes in Bankruptcy, Foreclosure Defense and Loan Modification.

Prior to working with iBusinessLogic this local attorney’s best form of advertising was either word of mouth or the occasional Craig’s List Advertisement. iBusinessLogic went to work on changing that situation with a fully optimized easy to manage Wordpress as CMS website development project.

This legal specialty site inclused a custom premium theme with rotating banner header, a custom beach oriented background, call to action buttons and easy to update testimonial displays that rotate automatically on the home page with every new page load.

Attorney Sanders and his staff have been impressed with the speed and efficiency of this website development project.  From start to finish this complete web site was completed in less than 4 weeks.

Keith Sanders stressed his desire to focus on three primary forms of law in which he specializes:

• Bankruptcy – Chapter 13 and Chapter 13 Bankruptcy Law in the State of Florida
• Foreclosure defense in the State of Florida
• Loan Modifications

Needless to say these are very competitive keyword phrases and we of course wanted to hone the niche down to a more localized result. With this plan the site was optimized to capitalize on search traffic in the local Tampa Bay area and of course in Keith Sanders home town of St Pete Beach.

The results are impressive, even for us… All of these results are for Organic search within 60 days of the site going live.  This shows the strength of a properly set up and optimized Wordpress based Content Management System website.  To attain these kinds of rankings in such a highly competitive search phrase landscape is quite impressive.

These screenshots are taken in early October 2009 – the site went live on 8 September 2009.

Keyword Phrase #1 – Bankruptcy Attorney St Pete Beach

#4 in Google for Bankruptcy Attorney in Local Search

Keyword Phrase #2 – Foreclosure Defense St Pete Beach

Google #2 - Foreclosure Defense

Keyword Phrase #3 – Loan Modifications St Pete Beach

Google Results - Organic #2 for Loan Modifications

Attorney Keith Sanders and his dedicated staff can continue to rank for other keyword phrases as long as they use this website as it was intended. By adding new information on a regular basis and concentrating of specific keyword phrase content, this attorney’s website should provide a very attractive return on investment.

Oh, and one other bonus from this optimized site… Attorney Keith Sanders can be found without having a Linked In or Twitter account. We always promote the use of these social networking tools, mainly because they are great for building a personal brand.  In Keith Sanders case, his name had already been taken on both of these social networking websites.

Keyword Phase #4 – Keith Sanders – Ranking #2 in Google

(Outranking both Twitter and Linked In)

Beating Large Sites like Twitter and LinkedIn - is Possible!
