"Our clients tell us that it was our web site more than anything else that first suggested we would be more professional and capable than our competitors.”Laura Stewart, Chase Inventory Services
We do the heavy lifting on web sites for business owners who prefer to spend time running their business.
We'll keep your site running like a well-oiled machine. Letting it do what it does best: establishing your company's credibility and attracting new business.
For one flat monthly fee - starting at £100 + VAT, based on the options you choose - you'll get the peace of mind that comes with knowing your site is in good hands. That it's being well cared for and tuned to deliver the best possible results.
You also get unlimited advice and support. Our experience and technical knowledge means that you suddenly have a personal web department that makes sure your site continues to meet your business objectives.
For £100/month, our basic package includes:
- Secure Hosting
- Email Management
- Daily Backups
- Support & Advice
- Analytics & Traffic Analysis
- Personal Secure Dashboard
Secure Hosting
Your web site deserves professional hosting, so let us handle the details of moving your site onto our robust and secure servers. (Remember to cancel your existing hosting account after we've set you up!) In addition to all the features you'll ever need, we'll give you unlimited storage space, unlimited upload and download traffic, a guaranteed availability of 99.9%, and unlimited technical support.
If your site suddenly becomes enormously popular or your white paper gets downloaded more often than you anticipated - fear not. Your unlimited hosting package means that traffic surges or a need for extra space for more pages or data are covered. One fixed cost covers you for all eventualities, so there's no hidden charges to worry about to take the shine off any web-based success.
Email Management
Some hosting companies let you have one or two email addresses with your domain name. With us, you can have unlimited email addresses on your domain name. Your package also comes with unlimited email forwarding, unlimited auto-responders (set-up within 24 hours), your own web mail account so you can access your email from any computer with an internet connection, incoming and outgoing anti-virus checking, and state of the art spam filters.
Unlimited email addresses means you can create new email accounts for every employee, product, and service. Add an address for support or for information or requests and suggestions. Every time you run a marketing or advertising campaign, you can create a dedicated email address to let you measure its success. Each additional email address on your account costs you nothing. Zero. Send us an email and the new account will be ready to receive mail within 24 hours.
Daily Backups
Sometimes the unthinkable happens. We're prepared. All your files and data is backed up on a daily basis, ready to be restored within 24 hours. We even do a rolling back-up, which means you can choose to restore your data to a particular day within the past week.
So, you try a new site design and don't like it. Or you make wholesale changes to some content and then realise it's not working. We can get your site back to the way it was in no time because we take a rolling back-up every night. Need to revert to the way the site looked last Tuesday? Tell us and we'll make it so.
Support & Advice
When you need advice or have a simple question about your site, give us a call. For the usual support issues – such as adding email addresses or new content, for instance – raise a ticket in your secure dashboard and we'll respond (i.e. do it or tell you why we couldn't) within 24 hours.
Your company may be too small - or you have other IT priorities - to warrant a dedicated web team. But your bpodr package supplies you with exactly that but at a fraction of the cost. Whatever your question or issue, we're on hand to help you make your site reach its potential and fulfil your business objectives. For that fixed monthly fee you now have an outsourced team of web specialists on hand to make light work of your interent problems.
Analytics & Traffic Analysis
There's not much point in having a professional site maintained and hosted in a secure and robust environment if you don't know how many visitors it's attracting. We'll install and monitor analytics scripts that will give you all the data you need to know how well your site is performing. From the number of visitors each day and which pages get most views, to what keywords visitors used to find you in search engines and how long they spent on your site, you’ll get reports that show you in a graphical and easy to understand format what's working on your site – and what's not.
You don’t board a train without at least some expectation of when it will arrive at its destination. Knowing who's visiting your site - and in what numbers - is a crucial part of starting to make your web site a vital aspect of your business growth.
Personal Secure Dashboard
As soon as you sign up with us, you have access to your own secure area on the bpodr site. This lets you view and download all your traffic reports and web site statistics, as well as read and contribute to the support knowledge base. It’s also where you can submit support requests.
Wouldn't it be great to have one place to go to check how your web site is performing, get advice on all aspects of improving your site, see your billing history, and send requests for content updates, new email addresses, and support? You can with the bpodr dashboard - a secure area that gives you round the clock access to your information and lets you communicate directly with us.
"[bpodr] took the time to really grasp the intricacies of the business. They've been incredibly thoughtful and have applied their skills to my particular needs and individual requirements."Toni Vicars, Marketing Executive
We also offer our clients a range of on-line solutions:
- Site Optimization (SEO)
- Content Updates
- Email Newsletter Marketing
- Adwords Campaign Monitor
- Social Media Marketing
Site Optimization (SEO: Search Engine Optimization)
We'll examine what terms potential visitors to your site are using when they search On Google and other search engines. Then we make sure that your content is in line with what the search engines are looking for. As new content is added to the site, we make sure that page titles and URLs are search engine friendly, as well as making sure the page code is well formed. We also make sure your site map is automatically updated and submitted to Google, as well registering your site on relevant directories. All work done will be reported in your dashboard area.
Keeping Google and the search engines aware of your site and any changes of content is a continual process. Time-consuming, too. Let the experts handle the dirty work, while you get on running the business and creating new content for your site.
Content Updates
The best way to keep visitors returning to your site is by keeping your content up to date. Search engines prefer sites to be dynamic, too, so refreshing your site with new content is a must. Send us your new content as often as you like and we'll put it up on your site within 24 hours. There's no limit to how often we'll update the existing pages of your site.
Want to keep your site's content fresh but worried about the cost associated with making frequent changes to your site? Worry no longer. Your bpodr package lets you change content as often as you wish. Now your site can be as dynamic as you need it to be without weighing up the cost.
Email Newsletter Marketing
Potential customers aren’t always ready to buy or set up a meeting. If your web site offers no option for staying in touch, chances are that you have only one chance to land a prospect. Email marketing gives you a great way to stay in the mind of customers and prospective customers alike. A regular email newsletter becomes a resource that convinces customers of your thought leadership in your market sector and makes you the first name they think of when it’s time to buy. We’ll set up everything from email capture to distribution, as well as recommending and editing content and delivery frequency.
You know your business and you know the market. Make sure your customers recognise your expertise by giving them market news, product and service tips, and some information they can really use. You let your knowledge and expertise shine through and we’ll take care of the details of managing your subscriber list and delivering the content in a well-packaged newsletter.
Adwords
A Google AdWords campaign lets you reach a much wider but still targeted audience of potential customers exactly when they may be searching for your product or service. You only pay when the advertisement drives a visitor to your site, so this is a cost-effective - and easy to control - way of driving traffic and giving you the best chance to increase your sales conversions. We’ll define the keywords that are likely to drive the best traffic, write the advertisements, and implement the campaign for you. Then we’ll integrate the AdWords campaign with your traffic stats, so you can measure the success of each campaign quickly and easily.
The flexibility of AdWords means you can change advertisements or switch campaigns almost instantly. Let us measure the response across a variety of advertisements and landing pages to ensure that every penny you spend on a campaign drives relevant traffic to your site.
Social Media Marketing
New tools and technologies are changing the way your customers communicate. With each other. With you. With other companies. They've got things to say about your products and services, too. Are you listening? Are you responding in the most effective way? We'll help you find the best ways to maintain conversations on-line with your existing and potential customers. As you listen and respond, you'll find your reputation increases in tandem with the loyalty of your customers. We'll handle all the details for you, from strategy and picking the best tools to installing meaningful metrics and tracking your success.
No matter the size your business or the sector in which it operates, your customers and prospects have easy access on the web to information about it, as well as comments, reviews and criticisms. Monitoring this stream of information and knowing how best - and where - to respond is a perfect task for professionals with the experience and the right tools to hand.
