Bloggers and web pros alike are buzzing about this open source endeavor called Buddypress. Buddypress is an add on to your WordPress MU (multi-user) install that adds a dynamic, extensible, and robust social networking aspect to your site. You can have user profiles, feeds, commenting and many of the other fun goodies that come along with a social media site. I can see this as being a very powerful tool for small groups and associations who want to keep in touch online. For now Buddypress is still in Beta but it is already a powerful tool in use by some very interesting groups. I am excited to see where it will go and how I can use it in future projects.

Here is a video of Andy Peatling- the leader of Buddypress giving a presentation of Buddypress in action:

Working with a Web Strategy Consultant can bring a myriad of benefits to the cost-effectiveness, focus, marketing efforts and exposure of your online business efforts. We have been a part of many product launches (big and small) and the consensus is that a website is not the end-all of your online efforts.

You need a comprehensive marketing strategy, just like in the real world.

The world of online marketing, networking, SEO and promotion can often seem like some form of “dark art”. A web strategy consultant can guide you down the most effective path and break down all of the possibilities in plain English.

So what are the overall benefits?

1. You will spend less money and time by only utilizing the most effective tools and strategies that are tailored to your goals and budget.

2. You will have a set of realistic goals that can be built upon within the short and long term.

3. More people will visit your website and know about your business.

4. You will have a strategy tailored specifically to your business, industry and target audience.

5. Your business will streak ahead of the competition by taking advantage of insider knowledge and proven strategies.

You may want to know, “How do I take that first step?”.

All you need to do is CONTACT US and we can talk to you and learn about your goals and ambitions online. We will then research your industry, target audience and competition. After sufficient research has been completed, we can create a report containing a strategy on how to accomplish your goals and increase your online exposure. We will layout each avenue and it’s cost, pros, cons, and prospective reach. We will formulate a combination of various advertising, networking, promotional and SEO strategies among other outlets.
