Richard provided these nice recommendation July 24, 2009 about working with Excel West:

“My company, The Levite Line recently hired Excel West to help update and improve the company website. The Levite Line at www.theleviteline.com displays one-of-a-kind flags, shirts, and bumper stickers. The Levite Line is dedicated to establishing the Levitical priesthood as outlined in the early biblical books of Exodus, Leviticus, Numbers and Deuteronomy. Our statement of purpose in a nutshell is: “To reaffirm and rededicate the heart of God’s eternal covenant; with All People, from the House of Israel & Judah, and All mankind.” Whatever your own religious or ethnic background you will appreciate this site if you are open to new views combined with ancient ideas and texts about God and life on earth.

I was hesitant to hire anyone else to update the website for a variety of reasons. I feel I need to know how to fix and improve and change my own site. I feared that putting my site into “expert” hands would leave me in the dark. Due to my frustration with trying to fix some items on my site, after I had switched web hosts, I did eventually hire Excel West. First I had shopped around, but once I spoke with Deeba Hargis, Excel West owner and founder, I knew I had spoken with the right person. Deeba listened empathetically and offered me the sincere support I was seeking. Deeba assured me that Excel West would assist me to be independent and able to understand what I would need to do after they completed the update. Excel West is creating a Storefront on the web for me through Zen Cart and it is nearly complete. The site looks very professional and I am looking forward to www.theleviteline.com engendering more business than ever once we launch.

Yours Truly,

Richard S. Levik
Founder & Owner
The Levite Line
www.theleviteline.com”

If you’ve got a brilliant idea for an internet business, the next step is obviously to make it happen. There are many subtle factors that make or break your business, and these factors can sometimes be overwhelming unless you have the right resources. In order to get your business started on the right foot you should take advantage of several tools. Read on to find out about a few of the most valuable resources available, including Excel-West, a design company that specializes in e-commerce sites. With the ShopSite ecommerce program, Excel-West can effectively help your ideas reach their full potential.

It doesn’t matter how desirable your inventory is if your web site doesn’t have a few key attributes - it needs to be professional and easy to use in order to gain the confidence of potential customers. If any part of the process feels awkward or unnatural, you may lose your buyer. After all, you wouldn’t open a pizza parlor that requires the diners to climb onto the roof just to pay for their meal.

Having a sleek and user-friendly web site might be a breeze if you are well-versed in web design and computer programming. But if you aren’t, then you can depend on the ShopSite ecommerce program, located at www.shopsite.com. It is a piece of software that provides valuable help to owners of online businesses. With Excel-West and ShopSite on your side, you can not only get that exciting first order, but you can also pave the future of your business and look forward to steady expansion.

Modern market research has revealed a lot about the way people surf. The average person shopping on the internet skims through pages and clicks links at a very quick rate, which in turn requires ecommerce sites to step up their efforts just to keep the attention of their customer base. To avoid having your web site quickly passed over by everyone who visits, you will need to provide all of the features that are standard with modern online stores. There’s no easier way to do it than with ShopSite.

ShopSite Pro allows you to easily set your web site up with a variety of templates, giving it the distinct quality of a professional web designer. The ShopSite templates are perfect for any variety of online shop, generating a variety of sleek designs that will allow you to have full control over the look and feel of your store. Excel-West can help you suit it to your personal taste as well as the smooth browsing of your customers.

You will be able to produce a pleasant shopping experience using ShopSite Pro, since it makes it easy to use features that people have come to look for in an e-commerce web site. These numerous features include a shopping cart, a high quality product catalog, gift certificates, coupons, customizable store searches, and registration of customers. Using these tools will put you on the same level as all of today’s most successful internet vendors.

While these ShopSite features certainly take care of your customer, the ShopSite software also works for you on a completely different level. ShopSite produces web sites that are optimized for search engines. Just being on the front page of a search related to your product could draw thousands more people per week to your site. More people drawn to your site means more orders placed, so a little bit of search engine optimization can go a long way to the long term economic success of your business.

Besides being a web design tool, the ShopSite manager will also help you with all of the practical tasks involved in running your business. Keeping track of your inventory is an important part of running a business, and ShopSite 10 makes it easy. It helps you create an easily manageable catalog of your inventory, as well as an integrated database of orders that have been placed.

When your business begins to grow and the profits start rolling in, you will be thankful for a tool that simplifies many tasks, letting you run your business more efficiently. ShopSite certainly accomplishes that with its payment and shipping features. It integrates tools such as Google Checkout and PayPal, allowing your site to accept all major forms of payment and ultimately making it easier for people to shop with you.

ShopSites’s shipping features let you get quotes for shipping through USPS, FedEx, and UPS, in real time. It also generates packing slips based on each order, making it quick and easy to make shipments, even if you are selling at a higher capacity than you had ever planned for. All of ShopSite 10’s payment and shipping tools work at an international level, meaning your business does not have to be confined to one continent. Your business can become a part of the global market, and sell products wordwide.

ShopSite 10 offers security features that will protect your business from a variety of fraud and theft. Orders and payment information are encrypted, protecting your customers as much as you. It verifies all payments with fraud protection, and runs on compiled code that protects against malicious hackers who may attempt to deface your site. Business owners on the internet deal with a very unique set of threats, and ShopSite is tailored perfectly to defuse them.

If are thinking about starting an online business, then you need to be sure to consider all of the factors that you have just read about. Work only with experts. EXCEL-WEST designers are certified in Shopsite design and ecommerce. It’s a big task to take on by yourself, but using ShopSite and a certified Shopsite Designer is like having a team of professionals working with you, optimizing all aspects of your endeavour, from web design and shopping cart integration to the most tedious inventory, shipping, and supply management. With all of these things made easy, it will be much easier for you to expand your business and profit margins. So do it the right way, and get the support of ShopSite.com for your site.

With the timesheet management software, HR tools and payment methods, you can employ a data entry specialist instead at a greatly lower rate.

There are many forms of networking from interpersonal relationships to joining clubs and organizations based on similar interests or industries. However, networking based on higher global goals can be the most rewarding. In today’s society, it is important to embrace a sense of ethics, social and environmental consciousness. It is essential that we leave future generations with a society and planet that is better than we found it. The fear comes from growing concern that we are not moving toward such a future. But with a concentrated effort this does not need to be so. These core values are important and because of this, many businesses wish to establish relationships with other like minded businesses.

Networking with businesses that are environmentally and socially conscious makes sense from a global perspective as well as from a personal, spiritual point of view. It coincides directly with our philosophy that “there is a power for good in the universe and you can use it.” Consider two similar businesses that provide a service you need. However, one business gives back to the community, perhaps donates time or money to a worthy cause or has instituted environmentally sound business practices. Which one are you more likely to use? Opting for the one that has a similar business approach helps empower those businesses and encourage others to follow suit.

But, how do you find such businesses and the people involved with them? One of the best ways is to join us for our monthly classes where you can meet people with similar interests and philosophies. You can view our schedule of upcoming meetings on the calendar and we encourage you to participate. We also encourage you to look into Higher Purpose Business Network, a group dedicated to promoting those businesses that embrace higher consciousness values. Their forum brings people together who provide goods and services to the community while striving for socially and environmentally sound business practices.

It is up to all of us to ensure a better life for ourselves and our families. It is up to all of us to ensure society and the planet is in a better place for the next generations. Establishing business relationships with those companies that believe and act upon the fundamental values we hold dear, we can make a difference. By supporting the like minded individuals found at our monthly meetings and through Higher Purpose Business Network, we can step out of fear and into networking to share ideas, exchange information and make the world a better place.

Higher Purpose Business Network’s (HPBN) next meeting is Wednesday April 22, 2009 7-8PM at Center for Spiritual Living Carlsbad. For more information, please visit HPBN at higherpurposebusinessnetwork.com.

A special thanks to Kathleen Dougherty for helping to bring this together.

Email is dead. If you are under 22 years old, then you already know this truth. Email is useless, a waste of time, and has no purpose other than to complicate and aggravate.  It’s a dinosaur technology. If you don’t know that by now, then you too are at risk of becoming obsolete.  The new business customer doesn’t email. They communicate via text, blogs, social networks (facebook, twitter, mash-ups, etc.), IM,  or other portals, including their own private label portal.

The Problem with Email. It’s unreliable for project/event management, customer relationship management, or for that matter running a business. In a recent survey,  participants reported on average, a 10-30%  loss of legitimate emails due to malfunctioning spam/virus filters, wrong email addresses, and so on.

Project Management and Email. Let’s say you have a project/event that you need to manage. There are several people (aka stakeholders) working on it. You as the project manager, have the total picture of the project. Now you need to communicate to others about the ‘total picture’ (e.g, information, file attachments, etc.). So, what do you do if you use email? You begin breaking up the total picture into little pieces and send it as email to the various stakeholders who are involved in your project. They in turn, must take those little pieces of the total picture and assemble them out of their inbox (or voicemail, fax) into their own system. So what you end up with is several stakeholders with their own version of the total picture assembled in their own computer/system. Pretty dumb concept.

Website Traffic - Webmasters helping webmasters develop high value relevant links. Promoting ethical web-marketing using the time trusted pillars of relevance and popularity.

As the C.E.O. of a global website engineering, design, and marketing company, I am often asked the question by new physicians (or any new business owner for that matter) “how much should I budget for website development and internet marketing?”

First off, it’s worthwhile to look at what amount you should set aside in general for marketing and advertising your medical practice.

According to the National Federation of Independent Business there are a number of key factors to consider when deciding what percentage of your revenue to spend on advertising and marketing your new business.

As a rule of thumb, consumer-facing businesses (those marketing to consumers) will spend more money on marketing and advertising than business-to-business companies. While the actual percentage will vary among medical practices, it’s common for a new or growing medical group to spend 10 to 15 percent of the year’s anticipated revenue on marketing and advertising. As a business becomes better known, this percentage could be expanded or trimmed accordingly based on careful monitoring and tracking of your marketing and ad campaigns. New physicians should monitor revenues closely and re-evaluate their budgets every three to six months to insure a good return on investment.

Factors that you should consider when deciding what type of marketing and advertising to use (e.g., online advertising and website development, newspaper, TV ads, radio) and how much you should spend include factors such as type of medical practice, your location, your target audience, and your competition.

Here’s some insights and statistics on who’s accessing the world wide web to help you decide.

While the demographics of the world wide web are changing, according the PEW Internet and American Life Project, about 80% of people who use the internet have searched for health information and health providers. About 72 -92 % of people ages 18-64 use the internet with those that are high income earners, college educated, urban and suburban, whites and English-speaking using it the most.*

If your target demographic matches that of internet users, you may want to consider setting aside 5-10 percent of your first year’s anticipated revenues on website development and internet advertising. Please look for more follow-up posts on this topic here in the weeks ahead. If you have any questions or need assistance, you can call us at EXCEL-WEST, (888) 317-9300.

It is a sign of a maturing industry when one receives in their hands technology pertaining to that industry which even non-experts can conveniently deploy for their benefit. In the web world, new sets of tools keep coming up on the horizon and are being made available to customers, clients and business owners, as well as to web developers and web designers. One of these tools is called the “Content Management System “, Content Management System for short.

Some of the more popular Content Management System packages include Joomla, Mambo, Wordpress, Drupal, Accrisoft, etc.

What is a Content Management System? It is a nifty little piece of software that enables you to manage both at the macro and the micro level the task of managing the content of your website. It is a powerful tool that brings to all the convenience and the features that make a good website a great website.

Though relatively a new concept, the model has matured very rapidly thanks to the massive involvement of the development community. Part of the Web 2.0 movement, a Content Management System allows automation of almost all the features that a website owner or project manager would like to see on the site. Before the advent of the Content Management System, these same features would have required hiring a competent programming team which would have made the exercise cost-prohibitive. By now providing these same features in plug-and-play modules, Content Management System has made setting up shop and going to market very easy and convenient.

Features And Advantages Of Content Management System

Some of these features include providing memberships to users of the site, and on top of it, creating a different layer of paid membership within the user community; presenting different interfaces of essentially the same information repository to clients, vendors, employees at different levels of hierarchy, as well as to the whole wide world; calendaring; blogging capabilities; Web-2.0-community-based features such as mass communication, information sharing and ratings — the works. Don’t you wish you had all these features and more in your website, too? The Content Management System makes it all possible.

One very good advantage of using a Content Management System is that website owners and project managers can have entry-level people contribute to content development as well as the site’s layout and architecture; these are the people who may not be technology-savvy but who are experts in the domain that is the site’s focus. This is made possible by a so-called “grey interface”, wherein users simply login through a nifty-little window with a user-name and password given by the site owner or manager, and proceed to get on with their particular job. Couple this with the fact that multiple contributors can be managed simultaneously, and you can have fresh content at all times, at unheard-of cost-savings.

Yet another spin-off, and a worthy spin-off if you please, is that sites developed using Content Management System features are well-liked by search engines. This is because Content Management System enables sites to become more user-interactive, and thus engenders the possibility of return users. And search engines like the popularity and loyalty that users returning again and again connote, as their latest algorithms suggest.

Thanks to the ever-growing community involvement in Content Management System development, a number of plugins are now available which add even more features and functionalities to the already powerful tools. So you have exotic-sounding extension names such as “Zaragoza Clouds”, “Accordian menus”, “Featured Article Listing”, “PixSearch” and the like, which make building websites using Content Management System a joy.

Role Of EXCEL-WEST

EXCEL-WEST is adept at setting up a Content Management System, configuring, installing, designing site layout and site architecture, and building content on an ongoing basis for website owners, and on behalf of project managers, web developers and designers. We are an ideal strategic partner for all aspects of website building and maintenance. Our repertoire includes search engine services such as Search Engine Optimization (SEO), Search Engine Submission (SES), Search Engine Positioning (SEP), Search Engine Results Page (SERP) components of the business that drive traffic to the site. Involvement of EXCEL-WEST guarantees that sparkle and magic that makes a site stand out from the millions of me-too sites that may be jostling for attention in the same domain.

And that is just the beginning.

Once the site goes live, we provide expert advice that only experts who have put in the hard work for years can provide. So whether your site produces revenue or develops membership, or is just a personal statement for someone, we are there by your side every step of the way. Rest assured, your readership and client base will keep growing over time, and you will find our being by your side every single moment a bonus in this competitive world. Whether it is to engage them with whacky or serious polls, or rolling before them the calendar of events that are planned for the next few weeks or months, or simply updating the content every so often — we know our job very well, seriously.

EXCEL-WEST’s involvement begins with that initial assessment meeting with clients where we help the client arrive at an informed decision with regard to which Content Management System and which database to go with. This decision is usually based on the particular domain the site is operating in, projected number of users who would be using the site, anticipated traffic, amount of advertising, the number of concurrent users expected to use the site at different points of time, and so on.

Work only with experts

When you decide to invest in a site with a lot of potential for growth, work only with people who know what they’re doing. Many contractors can create a Content Management System for you, but if it’s not the proper structure and if it’s not built properly, the structure would likely collapse if you develop several hundred members/visitors while your site is not properly outfitted with the right design. When this happens, you’ve pretty much lost your opportunity with those potential members/visitors, and it’s very hard to get them back to your new architecture. This is exactly why proper planning is so important.

For more information, or an estimate on developing a social network, contact us here at EXCEL-WEST, via phone at 888-317-9300 or here. We look forward to working with you to help you achieve your successful social network website.
