Search Engine Marketing Services
Pay Per Click & Sponsored Listing
The first search results you'll see are most often the paid, or sponsored listings. Like it or not, they work and generate tons of traffic for the advertisers willing to shell out money for each click to the link. Usually found at the top of the search results page, sponsored lstings are also found to the right of the main results. Depending upon the competitiveness of your website, you can pay as little as a few pennies to as much as $10 or more for each time a viewer clicks on your paid listing. It is very important to know how to run a PPC campaign, and even more important to accurately track the clicks and conversions to determine your ROI. There is nothing worse than not knowing if your advertising is working, or if you are working for your advertising! Alert Media employs years of experience with its full service search engine positioning solutions including: setup, managment, niche discovery, keyword research, conversion tracking and click reporting every month.
Quotes from some of our clients:
" Alert Media did a great job for us. They saved us over $3,500 on our yellow pages, and trained our 3 technicians how to treat customers in order to get more referrals. We've had more referral business in the last few months than we had in the last 2 years! "
John Weismann
" Business is still pretty lousy compared to where we were before the economy tanked, but without your help we would have closed our doors long ago. Thanks for your dedication to our bottom line! "
Kristen Shasby, On Time Greetings
" ...and not only is Tammy, our receptionist, in a better mood, we're seeing a significant impact on the calls to customers conversion rates. We didn't even know there was such a thing until your company came along! It's hard to fix something you don't know about, thanks for enlightening us!"
Cindy & Todd Marchese, Marchese Masonry
" ...thanks for helping us get our business in order. Belive it or not, the employee handbook you helped us with has turned out to be one of the best things we ever did! 28 years in business and we never had one. Now that we can see the difference it's making, I shutter to think how much we lost over all these years by not having it!

Knowledge & Experience
Sure, you could run your own PPC campaing on Google and Yahoo.

Our team of experienced professionals averages over a decade of search engine marketing and search engine optimization. We started before there even was a Google! For example, most do-it-yourselfers tend to go after getting clicks from the most common search terms where competition is stiff. There's nothing wrong with doing so, but you might find yourself spending your entire budget on a few clicks and not getting any sales, leaving yourself with the pinion that search engine marketing doesn't work. It does work, and it works very well if you know how to work the system properly.
Remember, a click is just a click, it's not a sale. What happens to a consumer once they click on your link and land on your website? Effective website design is critical!

Yellow Pages Advertising Consultation
Whatever you do, DO NOT just "keep it the same" this year! Companies like R.H. Donnelley (Dex Yellow Pages) and Idearc (Verizon YPs) have gone bankrupt in the last year or so. We don't think it is wise to accept advice on how to spend your advertising budget from a company that couldn't keep their own finances in order, do you? We offer YP consulting at a very reasonable rate with GUARANTEED results. If we don't save you money, you don't pay us! 90% of advertisers are either spending too much, or are spending it the wrong way.
- Yellow Pages usage is down significantly, and so is ROI.
- There still may be some profit to be made, IF you know how.
- BEWARE the commissioned yellow pages sales rep!
Marketing Strategy Development & Sales Training
If you fail to plan, you're planning to fail. Unless you have years of training and experience as a sales and marketing professional, your business is not doing as well as it should. Stick to what you know, and hire professionals to cover the things you don't know so well. The increase in revenue as a result of our work has always been greater than the cost of our services, usually in the first year! In other words, we don't "cost" anything, we make you money!
