Doing business online has proved quite a challenge for even the most determined of business owners. The common denominator seems to be a lack of user traffic. Often-times, we blame it on marketing which is invariably tied to resources.

But before you splurge on further marketing efforts, think "web presence" - which is what we advocate. You may need to rethink your website, and for new sites, it starts with your choice of domain name! Forging a presence on the web is a conscientious undertaking we can help you with.

eShopWEBs is the development arm of EWM, a ubiquitous web consultancy. Visit the EWM site for the whys and wherefores of cultivating a "web presence".

At eShopWEBs dotCom, we work to transform your website into an ebusiness powerhouse - one that works for your business online. In internet parlance, "works" means "a satisfactory return in terms of conversions" and conversions refer to instances when visitors to your website buy as desired.

This is what we can do for you:

	creative direction Conceptualise a website for your online business that makes sense to your target audience. We will provide you with a report on what you need to do to be competitive, to stay competitive and to out-do the competition! Ask for your Business-2-Web or B2W Report today - [apply for quote].
	custom web design Custom design or re-design your website drawing an optimal balance between aesthetics and functionality. The Design Creative takes into account your ebusiness needs within the resources you allocate with room to scale up in terms of added functionality and add-on emarketing options - making each project unique onto itself. iDesignWorks is our creative division. Sleep is not an option. Our cyberGoghs live to lend color to canvas - from creative direction to inspiring creations, we pride ourselves with sparing no effort at producing site aesthetics that reflect the elements of your business, meet the demands of a dynamic internet marketplace and user preferences.
	web content Write content for your site. This is copywriting for the web with your business in mind, optimized for search engines, your target audience and the now omnipresent social media.
	web integration We can help you install and theme a blog, forum, shopping cart or other plugin, script or code that adds ebusiness functionality to your website. "Theme" adaptation keeps your site looking professional - most out-of-the-box scripts are plain vanilla and require some amount of tweaking to suit your site's preferences.
	web presence From ibranding your site to deploying strategic ebusiness solutions, we work to keep your online presence in perspective, positioning your products and services for optimal reach. A strong presence attracts more visitors - leading to better conversion rates. It all starts with your web interface, the right content and a conscientious marketing plan. To maintain visitor interest, you need to engage your audience, maintain constant contact and give them a reason to revisit. A tried and tested solution to keep your traffic in the loop is a modest utility known as the online newsletter. Snazzy or plain, the right content extends your market reach online - the more widely read it is, the more entrenched your web presence over time. Publish yours today! In collaboration with The eZine Post, we produce and manage online newsletters (ezines) for clients on a project basis. We create a template, add content (yours or syndicated) and optionally distribute it online. Do contact us if you wish to review or re-theme your existing ezine!
	domain & web hosting Register your domain name and host your website. We offer a one-stop solution packaged as "The eShopWEBs Business Edition" with flexible hosting options that include free domain registration/renewals for as long as your site is hosted with us. This Edition is currently available to clients who also require us to build a new website or do a makeover of an existing one.
