Why Have a Website?
One good reason is to create dependency
 |
|
I work every day. Compulsively.
Being a political junkie, I'll take a break Sunday morning if any of the talk shows have interesting guests. What I want is a quick, down-'n'-dirty schedule: 1) Name of the show; 2) who are the guests; 3) the panel of babble-heads.
With that information, I can make a view/no-view decision in 20 seconds.

Takeaways to Consider
- If someone comes to a website and never returns, the marketers, writers and designers have failed.
- In direct marketing, this is the equivalent of spending money to acquire a customer and never making another offer—quite simply a lousy business model.
- What can you do to your Website to create dependency, so that people will return over and over again?
- For starters, create a vision statement and live up to it.
- Refresh content often.
- Make content relevant, interesting and easy-to-digest.
- Ruthlessly self-edit, so that people’s time is not wasted.
- Hire writers and designers with print discipline, who don’t wander off message and bloviate.
