In April of 2005 Cheap Jordan Proto React , I conducted a survey of more than 250 real estate marketing websites. These were not corporate websites -- they were the personal marketing websites of individual agents.
What shocked me was that the majority of these websites (nearly 65%) had no way to capture the email addresses of visitors. I'm assuming the owners of these sites expected visitors to contact them immediately upon visiting.
But that's too heavy a burden to put on a website. It's rare that you can shorten the sales cycle to nothing more than a web visit and expect any results.
On a commerce website, most first-time visitors will leave without purchasing anything. Likewise, on a real estate marketing website, most visitors will leave without contacting the agent who owns the site.
If people leave your website without "dropping off" their contact information, there's a strong chance you'll never hear from them again. That's the nature of the Internet, and it reinforces the importance of having a lead-capturing system on your website.
What happens when people visit your site: Generally speaking Cheap Jordan Proto Max 720 , first-time visitors to your website will do one of three things:
1. They will respond immediately (with a phone call or email).
2. They will sign up for something and then leave the site.
3. They will leave the site without doing anything.
Obviously, you want visitors to take the first or second action. But we know from statistical surveys that most visitors will take action #2 or #3. That makes action #2 (sign up and leave) the overlap between what you want visitors to do and what they're most likely to do.
So make sure you have something for people to sign up for on your website. This is called an "opt in" mechanism -- visitors will opt in (or subscribe) to receive future communications from you.
Listings help, but they're not enough. Home listings will add value to your website. After all, listings are one of the top items visitors will look for on your site. But listings alone will not optimize the number of leads you capture. They'll generate a phone call here or an email there, but not enough to keep the pipeline filled with prospects.
Listings are a passive way to gain clients, because you're waiting for them to contact you. But by capturing leads through your website Cheap Jordan Legacy 312 , you can shift into active mode and contact prospects with information they want. As a result, your chances of turning them into clients will increase tenfold.
Offer value to gain permission. To maximize the number of opt-ins, you must offer something of value -- a free report, a booklet, a newsletter. You offer this item of value in exchange for the visitor's contact information (and implied permission to use it).
Permission makes all the difference. Emailing prospects without their permission is spam. On the contrary, emailing them after they've expressed interest is good manners (and good business).
Want to increase the number of people who give you this permission? Simply increase the value of the offer. With website traffic being equal Cheap Jordan Future , a stronger offer will produce more leads. The two are directly proportional.
Conclusion If you offer nothing on your website but free information, you will not get visitors and readers to "raise their hands." Free information is great, but you have to hold something in reserve to elicit calls, emails or subscriptions. Offer something of value in exchange for permission.
Sure, you can educate your visitors. And you should. But always keep in mind the ultimate goal of your personal marketing website -- to generate leads and grow your business.
DVD is an optical disc storage media format that can be used for storing data, including movies with high video and sound quality. DVDs resemble compact discs: their physical dimensions are the same-12cm or the mini 8cm-but they are encoded in a different format and at a much higher density. Unlike CDs Cheap Jordan Defy SP , all DVDs must contain a file system. This file system is called UDF, and is an extension of the ISO 9660 Standard used for Data-CDs.
DVDs are made from a 0.6 mm thick disc of polycarbonate plastic coated with a much thinner (reflective) aluminium layer. Two such discs are glued together to form a 1.2 mm double-sided disc. The basic DVD disc is thinner than a CD to make it possible to use a lens with a higher numerical aperture.
A single-layer DVD can store 4.7 Gbyte, which is around seven times more than a standard CD-ROM. By employing a read laser at 650 nm (was 780 nm) wavelength and a numerical aperture of 0.6 (was 0.45), the read-out resolution is increased by a factor 1.65. This holds for two dimensions, so that the actual physical data density increases by a factor of 3.5. DVD uses a more efficient coding method in the physical layer. CD's error correction, CIRC Cheap Jordan Apex React , is replaced by a powerful Reed-Solomon product code, RS-PC; Eight-to-Fourteen Modulation (EFM) is replaced by a more efficient version, EFMPlus, which has the same characteristics as classic EFM. The CD subcode is removed. As a result, the DVD format is 47% percent more efficient with respect to CD-ROM, which uses a 'third' error correction layer.
DVD Media can contain: DVD-ROM (read only Cheap Jordan Aero Morph , manufactured by a press) DVD-RRW (R=Recordable once, RW = ReWritable) DVD-RAM (random access rewritable; after-write checking of data integrity is always active.) DVD+RRW (R=Recordable once, RW = ReWritable)
Two DVDs with different bottom disc may have one or two sides, and one or two layers of data per side; the number of sides and layers determines the disc capacity.
DVD-5: single sided, single layer, 4 Cheap Jordan 9 ,704,317,440 bytes, 4.7 gigabytes (GB), or 4.38 gibibytes (GiB)
DVD-9: single sided, double layer Cheap Jordan 8 , 8.5 GB (7.92 GiB)
DVD-10: double sided, single layer on both sides, 9.4 GB (8.75 GiB)
