Paid Inclusion Service - Getting Your Site Listed
There are thousands of directories on the web, including a few major ones such as Yahoo! and minor ones specializing in all areas of the web. Paid inclusion guarantees your site will be listed in these directories, usually for a small fee. Raspberry Marketing submits your site directly to major directories, and utilizes third party submission services to submit it to thousands of sites, on a monthly basis. Paid inclusion:
- Increases Your Exposure
- Increases the Number of Relevant Links Back to Your Site
- Guarantees Your Site Will Be Indexed on a Regular Basis
Ethical and Effective Search Engine Optimization Services
Once upon a time, getting your site crawled and
indexed by search engines was as easy as hand-submitting
your site to them and including the right meta
tags. Those days are long gone, and have
been replaced by sophisticated algorithms that
mathematically measure elements on a page such
as content, headings and keywords.
Raspberry Marketing offers a full-service search engine optimization service that can help you navigate the ins and outs of these algorithms. Our team works with you to:
- Conduct an Initial Analysis of Search Engine Optimization Opportunities.
- Identify Key Pages for Search Engine Optimization

Local Search Marketing
What is it?
The ability to target search engine marketing to a specific geographic area. It is typically utilized by businesses whose clientele is restricted to certain geographic areas.
Why do I need it?
Local search marketing becomes critical when you need to drive traffic to a local business, or from a certain area.
What is Included?
- Inclusion in local editions on portals such as AOL, Yahoo, Google
- Utilization of local Yellow Pages
Online Public Relations
Online public relations is a critical part of
an integrated natural search engine optimization
(SEO) strategy. Press releases and overall
market presence contribute to predominance on search
engine results pages (SERPs). A strong online
public relations effort also contributes to the
creation of backlinks and online reputation management.
Today, many companies are either not doing any
PR, or are working with an agency that doesn't
understand the specifics of online PR
and, therefore, are not optimizing their PR for
search engines.
Raspberry Marketing will craft a PR strategy that can incorporate the following:
- Creation of Online Press Releases
- Online Distribution of Press Releases
- Blog Entry and Optimization
- Online Forum Participation
- Online Newsletter Identification
A well-targeted PR strategy means more traffic
to your site, improved SEO rankings, and increased
appearance on search engine results because of
further penetration on SERPs.
When traffic to your site, SEO results and SERP appearance all increase, that means your message is getting out there. Online public relations allows you to be in charge of managing your reputation online, in addition to assisting your Natural SEO efforts.
Website Development
Given that almost all elements of Search Engine
Marketing (SEM) rely upon
an optimized web site as their foundation, you
may consider redesigning your
entire website to achieve optimum return on your
SEM investment. This option
is especially recommended for image-heavy sites,
sites done entirely in
Flash, sites ready for an overhaul, or sites not
optimally structured for
the search engines.
Redesigning your website will help you achieve
better results across the
board, including your results with Search Engine
Optimization (SEO),
Pay-Per-Click (PPC) advertising, Paid Inclusion,
and Lead Generation.
If you are ready to take your entire site to the
next level, contact
Raspberry Marketing to help you create the website
and landing pages you
need to round out your Search Engine Marketing
efforts.
Social Networking
A growing number of people are now making “virtual” friends on social networking sites. People of all
ages are relying on perfect strangers for product
reviews and recommendations, whether it be for
a new car, a date, or a health condition. Marketing
through social networks capitalizes on this phenomenon
because it puts you in front of your audience,
and makes you part of their dialogue.
Our social networking marketing services include
building content on popular sites such as MySpace,
Facebook and LinkedIn, while also identifying lesser-known
social sites pertaining to your niche. For a mainstream
forum such as YouTube, Raspberry Marketing can
produce compelling, web-based video content that
can be shared to build awareness of your brand.
No matter what site it is, we can create and maintain
the presence you want.
Social Networking is “word of mouth” marketing, amplified. It gets people spreading the word, and building awareness, on your behalf.
Web 2.0
By building interactivity into your website with
Web 2.0 functionality, you can shape relationships
with your customers. Web 2.0 tools give customers
a voice, letting them connect with each other and
with you.
Raspberry Marketing will help you to integrate Web 2.0 functionality into your site and to build relationships with your customers through:
- Podcasts
- Article commenting functionality
- Discussion forums
- Review capabilities
- Places to post user-generated content
- Ways to link up with like customers
- Recommendations based on user behavior
- Blogs
With this channel of communication opened between you and your customers, you will be able to hear their concerns and understand their thoughts without doing expansive market research, leading to better products and a better company.
