Content management
Our custom content management system provides complete flexibility through a simple and usable interface.
Our content management system uses a WYSWIG (Microsoft Word like) interface to manipulate the fonts, images and tables within the main areas of each piece of content.
The content management system is currently being used by several sites and by customers with a wide range of technical abilities.
Social technologies and blogs
Blogs, forums, message boards and other social technologies provide niche websites with valuable user-driven content.
The explosion of sites such as Digg.com, MySpace.com and YouTube.com demonstrate that customers have a lot to say.
Furthermore, customers inherently trust the user-driven content as they believe it is produced without an agenda.
Building communities
The use of social technologies is all about building a community around your brand.
With a niche subject area such as arts & crafts there is a built-in community of like-minded individuals looking for a channel to communicate.
By providing social technologies such as blogs and message boards we are simply tapping into the community’s built-in need to talk to each other.
Handheld technologies & SMS
Our experience with SMS and handheld technologies such as PDAs, mobile phones and Blackberrys provide a window into the future of interaction with online technologies.
Imagine being able to purchase and upgrade your policy simply by sending an SMS.
Search engine advertising & marketing
Search engine advertising and marketing is a key component in the success of a niche website.
Plus 2 can manage, maintain, report on and enhance the search engine marketing strategy for each of the niche websites.
Affiliate marketing
Affiliates are an important and cost-effective method of disseminating the information about your niche product.
By giving up a small percentage of the profit margin, affiliates can help you reach millions more eyeballs you would not normally reach.
Email support & customer retention
Customer support and communication is of vital importance to an online product.
Customers want to know the business is real and run by real people. That’s why customer support via email, phone and live chat are so important.
From the business perspective, the more we can minimise customer enquiries by providing an easy online experience, the less emails and phone calls the support staff have to answer.
Hosting
All hosting and site management will be performed by Plus 2 and will be located at our preferred supplier. We have great faith in their service and have several high-traffic sites hosted in their data-center.
