Optimization
High-quality, user-centered content
Quality means clarity over confusion and utility over beauty.
Your prospects and customers come to your Web site for a reason.
They're required to use your Web site in pursuit of a purpose. They
want quick, intuitive access to the precise information they're
seeking. They want the information presented efficiently.
Organized content tailored for user behavior
Web site content should not get in the way of your visitors. If
your Web site makes it easy for your visitor to find and understand
the information he's looking for, he will likely trust your company
and brand as well as come back to your Web site.
Format content for quick consumption and comprehension
For any given topic a person might be interested in, there will
be hundreds if not thousands of Web sites containing related
information. There is no way to consume that much information, nor
would anyone want to. Users have to make quick decisions, within
seconds, whether to stay and read more or move on. Presenting
strong content in small, scannable and digestible chunks will go a
long way in keeping your prospects and customers engaged.
Digital Magnet
We can't emphasize this point enough: Know your audience. This
is the essence of our Digital Magnet philosophy. The voice and
tone of the writing and the way it's presented will be vastly
different if your target audience is teenagers wanting to begin
establishing credit than if it is seniors looking for information
on heart health.
