Crexendo Spurs Student-Run Businesses


Salt Lake City, UT (PRWEB) March 7, 2011

Some created websites for existing businesses. Others started brand new businesses based on the websites they built. In either case, University of Utah (U of U) students who entered a website contest sponsored by Crexendo got real-life experience in e-commerce. Crexendo is a Web marketing company based in Tempe, Arizona. Its University Program (UP) holds website contests at various universities. The contests are designed to give university students with any level of online experience exposure to website design, building, and marketing.

Jeff Hassett, a business lecturer at the university, said, ?The Crexendo website contest is a great way for business students to make themselves stand out when graduating and competing with 2,000 or so other people.?

The most interesting thing that comes from the Crexendo website contests is the variety of different types of websites and businesses that students build. The contest at U of U was no exception. Third place winner Daniel Bagby used his website to get business for a friend in the Austin, TX area who is a personal trainer. Second place winner Colton Gardner built a website to sell gift cards from various retail outlets and restaurants. And first place winner Annie Paul built a site for the organic soap business her father started after being laid off from his job.

Program chair Olivia Sheng, PhD said, ?We like to have companies from the business community partner with our students on projects like this. When these students graduate, they do so with real-world experience already on their resumes.?

Student contestants each got a free website, access to the Crexendo CMS (content management system), and training from Crexendo in different aspects of Web marketing. They had about three months, beginning in the fall of 2010, to build their websites.

?It?s remarkable that students, many with no web building skills and carrying full-time class loads, manage to develop what in some cases are extraordinary websites,? said Crexendo President Clint Sanderson. ?It?s a learning experience for the students but also for Crexendo. We learn more about the needs of our customers. This contest lets us be a good corporate citizen but it also helps us continue to optimize our software.?

Contestants get six months of free web hosting for their sites and pay $ 9.95 per month thereafter if they choose to keep their websites running. This is Crexendo UP?s first event at U of U, but they plan to make it an annual event. Cash prizes awarded were $ 7,500 for first place, $ 5,000 for second place, and $ 2,500 for third place.

?You can win either by taking an extraordinary idea and doing well, or by taking an ordinary idea and doing extraordinarily well,? said Crexendo CEO Steve Mihaylo.

Crexendo is a technology company that serves small- and medium-sized businesses. It specializes in Web marketing services and hosted business telephone services. The Web marketing services Crexendo provides include link-building and other SEO, paid search management, social media strategy, conversion rate optimization (CRO), and more. It also offers free workshops on various Web marketing topics to groups of owners and managers. http://www.Crexendo.com

BizziBiz Helps Local Businesses Capitalize On New Search Algorithm


Scottsdale, AZ (Vocus/PRWEB) March 07, 2011

The response to large businesses taking advantage of Google?s search algorithm means new opportunity for smaller, local businesses in search results. After a recent algorithm update, it is now possible for local businesses to find success in higher rankings for prized search terms.

?It?s a huge change in SEO and web development for small companies,? says BizziBiz digital marketing specialist Rick Bodey, who uncovered the significance of this change in the BizziBiz Labs research division with colleague Chris Franks. ?Now, search relevancy is increasing with the addition of onsite keywords and location in the title and meta description of a website. This puts local businesses in a really powerful position to potentially outrank larger chains for relevant searches in their area.?

Large businesses and spammers will no longer banish small businesses to pages two and three of commercial searches. Instead, websites of local businesses that have been properly optimized can rank as well as their larger competitors, meaning a potential increase in customers, sales and visibility.

BizziBiz Franchise, Inc. is one such company helping small businesses to capitalize on Google?s new algorithm. Chris Franks adds, ?We [BizziBiz] do everything we can to be a superhero for small businesses. With Google?s new algorithm, small businesses are empowered to greater impact the marketplace, in both the digital and the physical world.?

SEO For Small Businesses

It seems like times are always tough for small businesses, but no time is worse than during a recession. During a recession, many businesses try to cut back on as much as possible, but when does cutting back start to hurt the company? One of the places this question is most often applied is to the question of SEO. Should a small business pay for SEO when money is tight?

Unfortunately, many small businesses axe their advertising budget first. While this can be a good place to save a little bit of money, if businesses completely cut their advertising, they will not be able to attract new clients. Without new clients, there’s little they can do to make more money. While word of mouth may help somewhat, it’s not as effective as a marketing blitz.

While web marketing is cheaper than doing offline marketing, there are still costs involved. However, you may get a much higher return on your investment since you’re able to more deeply analyze how well your marketing is doing. Since websites allow users to track where their traffic comes from, it’s easier to identify and cut any online marketing that is not working. To this end, small businesses should not immediately cut their SEO budget when times get tight.

]]>


Some small businesses may not have even invested in SEO yet, and these businesses may be asking why they should spend the money. However, those small business owners may not recognize just how great a return they can get on their SEO. A huge return on investment is everything in a recession, and doing SEO is ranked as one of the top ROI solutions.

By selecting specific keywords and phrases, you’re very specifically targeting your audience. While ads in magazines may get a lot of attention, you never really know if your target audience is viewing the ad or if it is being viewed by someone who will never purchase your product. SEO, however, makes certain your website is being viewed by those who are looking for what you offer. It brings in more than just quantity; it brings in quality visitors and provides them with information about your website right away.

When it comes to dealing with SEO, small businesses have a few choices. They can either handle the SEO themselves or they can hire a professional SEO company. The first is obviously the most budget-friendly; however, if you and your employees don’t understand the basics of doing SEO, you may end up wasting your time. Fortunately, you can learn the basics of SEO fairly quickly.

Paying a company to do SEO, especially if the company is thorough and completely redesigns your website from the ground up to be fully optimized, may be out of your price range. Many small businesses simply can’t afford this. However, having an expert in SEO look at your pages can be helpful. Outsourcing only part of the SEO process can be helpful. For example, you may want to hire a professional SEO writer to create content for your website after you determine the keywords yourself.
