Put Your Business On The Map With Us

Having a website these days is just part of the bargain. But no longer is it enough just to be 'out there' on the web, a website that is going to bring results needs a broad approach to its marketing if it going to work for you and your business.... and that doesn't just mean getting a company to do some 'search engine optimization' for your site.

Marketing a website is about more than just sending its details off to the search engines or having banner adverts up on other sites. Visit Carmarthen set itself up to help the town and get it noticed; its businesses, its groups, the events going on here.  With the site now having been online for just over 10 months, we are really beginning to see the results of building the pages the way we have.

Sites need changing often: would you buy a newspaper that had the same news every day?

Visit Carmarthen changes almost every day:  As well as keywords, descriptions and the text on your pages needing to be tweaked so that the search engines notice and list you in the right way, marketing your site effectively means getting news of it on other sites - like the Visit Carmarthen. Why? Well, as well as all the items we just mentioned, search engines like Google look at sites and to see how often their content changes. After all, would we pick up our favourite newspaper if the front page news was the same every day? No, I thought not. Google is the same; change your content daily and they'll take notice of you, see that you have new items regularly and therefore list you higher up the chart because you are offering something new to your visitors all the time.

How do I get my business listed on Visit Carmarthen?

We don't do advertising, as such, preferring to use advertorials [a nice story about your business that explains your services] or our business pages instead of traditional banner ads.  Our business pages are very cost effective, starting with a one-off set-up fee of 60.00 Pounds and monthly payments of around 20.00 Pounds.  That gives you a site of your own, with its own unique sub-domain and as many pages as you like, which you can edit yourself.
