The Way of the Web: get seen or get lost!

 

    Visibility on the Web

     

    Many people have the perception that when it comes to being seen on the Web, "If you build it, they will come": this could not be farther from the truth. There are close to 400 million sites on the web ( Internet Systems Consortium Jan. 2006), and 7.3 million new pages ( www2.sims.berkeley.edu) are being added daily.

    Without specialist help, the chances of others finding your offering may be like trying to find a needle in a rapidly expanding global haystack. More than ever before, prominent visibility on the Web requires the specialised skills and techniques offered by expert internet marketers, such as Artsales.com.au, to direct targeted traffic to your offering, and secure top rankings for you on the leading search engines.

     

    Visibility on this site

     

    Similar to visibility on the Web, (but not quite as extreme), is visibility on this site. The more people who see your work, the more likely it is one of them will feel "that's just what I was looking for." The major difference between the standard and enhanced packages is visibility and promotion of your work. Enhanced works will always be returned first in the search results and as more works are added, this feature will obviously become more and more valuable.

     

    See below for details on all the other visibility and promotion tools offered with the enhanced package.

     

    Artsales.com.au is here to help you maximise your visibility on the web. Decide what your needs and goals are and choose the option that will best help you to achieve them.

E-card facility

 

    Choose any of your images for conversion to an e-card (online post card) for your exclusive use, which can be used for promoting your work, promoting your gallery, promoting an exhibition or posting of new works, special offers (limited editions, limited time pricings) and so forth. This facility should be used judiciously; you don't want to be labeled as a spammer.

 

 

 

Signature file facility

 

    Promote individual pieces and your presence on the Web with every e-mail you send. The enhanced package comes with a simple conversion option so you can easily turn any work into a signature file. These are for your exclusive use and are different to the .sig files publicly available in the free items section.

 

 

 

Priority placement in all Artsales.com.au searches
    Searches on this site will always list enhanced option works first.

 

 

Your own artblog

 

    One of the best ways to attract attention to your work on the Web is through Blogging. Blogs (which are like a website you can write directly to) are super attractive to search engines and we will show you how to have your articles and postings indexed within hours if not the same day, and instantly broadcast to interested readers through multiple major outlets.

     

    Artblogs also come with a great range of skins (designs) and feature permanent links back to your galleries.

     

     

 

Enhanced 21 Day Guarantee

 

    Standard works sold through Artsales.com.au come with a 14 day money back guarantee. In the case of a fully refundable reason for return, the artist /reseller is responsible for the cost of return postage. With the enhanced option however, buyers are not only offered the benefit of 21 days, but Artsales.com.au will pay the cost of return postage directly to the buyer.

     

    This means that you won't be left with an immediate additional  expense, but more importantly, the buyer is given the added reassurance that they won't be left to deal personally with a potentially awkward situation. See Refunds and Returns policy for full details.

     

    A smaller version of the following label appears on all enhanced galleries and images:

     

      Enhanced 21 Day Guarantee

     

    Research and experience have shown that stronger guarantees lead to more trust, which leads to more sales, with the Enhanced Guarantee label adding reassurance and an extra layer of professionalism to your online image.
