			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><br /><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin:0;"><span style="font-size:small;"><span style="font-family:Times New Roman;">With the economic slow down, there are less consumer dollars up for grabs.<span>  </span>So how can you make sure that those precious dollars come to you?<span>  </span>How do you make the most out of your marketing without spending more than you can afford in this economy?<span>  </span>You have to get aggressive with your online marketing and use every resource available to you.<span>  </span>There are free resources and there are paid resources, but none will do more to reach your online consumer than a properly designed website.<span>  </span></span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin:0;"><span style="font-size:small;font-family:Times New Roman;"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin:0;"><span style="font-size:small;font-family:Times New Roman;">Recently we re-designed a website that required national listings.<span>  </span><a title="Uncle Bob's Trailers &amp; RV's" href="http://www.unclebobstrailers.com" target="_blank">Uncle Bob’s Trailers and RV’s </a>sells and delivers a variety of trailers and trucks to an international customer base.<span>  </span>So they needed to have good search placement all over the US and Canada.<span>  </span>We re-designed their site to include a large amount of content by using their inventory to increase their page count.<span>  </span>As a result, their new website had exceptional placement on a national scale in less than two weeks.<span>  </span>When Google updates its listings, the website will see even higher placement.<span>  </span>Hits and customer inquiries to the Uncle Bob’s website have more than quadrupled in the two weeks since the new site was published.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin:0;"><span style="font-size:small;font-family:Times New Roman;"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin:0;"><span style="font-size:small;"><span style="font-family:Times New Roman;">What we have provided with this re-design is the ability for Uncle Bob’s to increase their customer leads and decrease their pay-per-click budget.<span>  </span>They are now getting more for less.<span>  </span></span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin:0;"><span style="font-size:small;font-family:Times New Roman;"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin:0;"><span style="font-size:small;"><span style="font-family:Times New Roman;">Getting more for less is the key to succeeding in a shrinking economy.<span>  </span>Online marketing is the key.<span>  </span>Think about this… Gas prices are increasing, so consumers are spending less, are driving less, and are finding ways to save money any way they can.<span>  </span>As a result, online “shopping” is increasing.<span>  </span>Instead of running from store to store, or business to business, consumers are first looking online for what is available in their community.<span>  </span>Online shopping is not confined to pay online, but also includes big purchase research and service provider research.<span>  </span>There is no business today that doesn’t need to be online.<span>  </span>If you’re not online, you are losing a percentage of the shrinking consumer dollars to your competition.<span>  </span></span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin:0;"><span style="font-size:small;font-family:Times New Roman;"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin:0;"><span style="font-size:small;font-family:Times New Roman;">To find out how you can get more for less, call <a title="Suite 171" href="http://www.suite171.com" target="_blank">Suite 171</a> today at 7801-478-5955.</span></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><br /><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin:0;"><span style="font-size:small;"><span style="font-family:Times New Roman;">We can think of 171 ways to improve anyone’s web site, but we have seen many that think they couldn&#8217;t. At suite 171, can&#8217;t isn&#8217;t in our vocabulary. We utilize all of our resources to help any business with web site design, and online marketing.<span>  </span></span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin:0;"><span style="font-size:small;font-family:Times New Roman;"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin:0;"><span style="font-size:small;font-family:Times New Roman;">We find it very flattering that a marketing business in Fargo would mention <a title="Website Design Services" href="http://www.suite171.com" target="_blank">suite 171</a> on their website, or Fargo-Moorhead blog. This solidifies that our successful SEO - search engine optimization, and website design services are exceptional. It&#8217;s good to know that the methods we use really do get results for our clients, and other marketing groups, advertising businesses, and marketing businesses in Fargo, Grand Forks, and all of North Dakota are noticing we can deliver.<span>  </span>This is great for <a title="Online Marketing" href="http://www.suite171.com" target="_blank">Suite 171, a web development company</a> that services the Fargo-Moorhead area, and many national businesses. </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin:0;"><span style="font-size:small;font-family:Times New Roman;"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin:0;"><span style="font-size:small;font-family:Times New Roman;">We wouldn’t recommend directly mentioning another competitor in your blog or website, because you are underscoring their capabilities over your own inabilities. Wouldn’t you want to be known as a subject matter expert and attract clients from your own online success? We find it very doubtful potential clients are blind to this fact. </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin:0;"><span style="font-size:small;font-family:Times New Roman;"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin:0;"><span style="font-size:small;font-family:Times New Roman;">Example: Type suite 171 Fargo in any web browser and you will see our site, sites designed by us, but also directories or other competitors that use our name to promote their business. Businesses that use this method don’t grasp or understand online marketing. If they absolutely understood search engine placement their natural search engine efforts would enable potential clients to locate them. </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin:0;"><span style="font-size:small;font-family:Times New Roman;"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin:0;"><span style="font-size:small;font-family:Times New Roman;">If you’re a in the marketing, advertising, or website development business in Fargo or any location and need help with website design, and online marketing, suite171.com can help. </span><span style="font-size:small;font-family:Times New Roman;">Hey, all you have to do is ask! </span><span style="font-size:small;font-family:Times New Roman;">Call 701-478-5955</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin:0;"> </p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin:0;"><span style="font-size:12pt;">Our award is your online success, and knowing you get a return on your investment.</span></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><br /><p>The best piece of advice to receive when you’re having a new website built is to make sure that a search engine expert is in on the process so that your site is built for natural search placement from the start. At Suite 171, we have expert search engine optimization experience and we know what works for great natural search engine placement.</p>
<p>Why is natural search engine placement a top priority? It’s to save you money in the long run. Think about it. Why do you have a site? You have a website to increase business. If your site cannot be found, it is not increasing your business, no matter how great your site looks. If your website is built in flash with amazing graphics, or your content is embedded inside the graphics, you may have a great looking site that no one will see, because search engines can’t find it naturally.<br />
           <br />
<em>If you&#8217;re looking to be found online feel free to <a href="mailto:info@suite171.com" title="mailto:info@suite171.com">ask us how</a>. </em></p>
<p>Here’s my point. Say you have this beautiful site that the search engines can’t find because all of your content is embedded in your graphics. Now how do people find you? They find you by already knowing your business name or through your traditional marketing efforts of your website address. You pay to have your business cards printed with your web address; you pay to put ads that include your web address in the paper, in magazines, on TV, on radio, and other places; you pay for brochures that you then pay to mail to a mailing list that you’ve paid to receive, and the list goes on. You are paying and paying and you are working hard to get people to visit your website.</p>
<p><em>Whether you&#8217;re thinking of a new website, a site redesign, building leads, or campaign tracking, <a target="_blank" href="http://www.suite171.com" title="Suite 171 request a quote">we can help</a>.</em></p>
<p>Imagine this alternative&#8230;</p>
<p>Your website has been properly built and optimized for natural search engine placement. Joe Public, and many others just like him, is looking for the product or service that you provide. He types it into a web search and your site appears among the top 25 listings. He clicks on your site and reads about you, sees your terrific call to action and fills out the contact form to get more information from you. You now have a qualified lead from someone that is truly interested in being contacted by you. You didn’t have to work hard to get it because your site has been set up to do all the hard work for you. Doesn’t this sound more attractive than how hard you thought you had to work at getting customers?</p>
<p><em>Can you get better results from your website? Contact <a href="mailto:info@suite171.com" title="mailto:info@suite171.com">Suite171</a> today to learn more.</em></p>
<p><strong>What makes us special?</strong></p>
<p>We understand most businesses are looking for something affordable but also a return on their investment. Our service and support is 2nd to none, and like to build business relationships.</p>

The approach to marketing on the Internet and the approach to traditional marketing are two very different animals.  Traditional Marketers strive to find a publication or media source that reaches a target demographic, either by age, gender, income, interest or other that best fit the product’s target market.  It is a constant subtraction game, narrowing [...]]]></description>

<p style="margin:0;" class="MsoNormal"><font face="Times New Roman">The approach to marketing on the Internet and the approach to traditional marketing are two very different animals.<span>  </span>Traditional Marketers strive to find a publication or media source that reaches a target demographic, either by age, gender, income, interest or other that best fit the product’s target market.<span>  </span>It is a constant subtraction game, narrowing the field from “everyone” down to a specific demographic who read a specific publication, and even then there is no guarantee the consumer will take notice the advertisements.<span>  </span></font></p>
<p><font face="Times New Roman"></font></p>
<p style="margin:0;" class="MsoNormal"><font face="Times New Roman">Internet marketing is the exact opposite.</font></p>
<p><font face="Times New Roman"></font></p>
<p style="margin:0;" class="MsoNormal"><font face="Times New Roman">Internet marketing starts with a consumer who is looking for something specific in a search.<span>  </span>The search then finds relevant information from the web and presents it to the consumer.<span>  </span>Here the consumer is actively looking for the product or service.<span>  </span>It is the internet marketer’s strategy to place their product in front of the consumer when they are looking to buy. <span> </span>According to Internet World Statistics, 71.4 % of the US population uses the Internet.<span>  </span>Of those internet users, the US Bureau of Labor Statistics found in a 2003 study, 67.1% of managers and professionals use the Internet at work.<span>  </span>In the last 5 years, those numbers have surely grown, so we can only assume that your target customer is online, either at home or at work.<span>  </span></font></p>
<p><font face="Times New Roman"></font></p>
<p style="margin:0;" class="MsoNormal"><font face="Times New Roman">Traditional Marketing uses demographics to attempt to narrow a large population down to a targeted &#8216;potential&#8217; viewer. </font></p>
<p><font face="Times New Roman"></font></p>
<p style="margin:0;" class="MsoNormal"><font face="Times New Roman">Internet Marketing is the opposite, requiring no demographics, because the targeted viewer (consumer) is the one searching for the specific content. </font></p>
