Using Your Booth As A Micro-Site!

Online Expo Blog | July 29, 2009 in Did You Know | Comments (0)

Did you know that your Online Expo Booth can be used as a micro-site for your business?

For instance, if you are introducing a new product or need to focus on one specific area of your business, you can adjust your Online Expo Booth to be a one-topic “micro-site” to focus on that specific topic.

In your Online Expo Booth, you have complete flexibility to change text content, re-optimize the keywords, change the images/graphics, add new marketing pages, and promote special offers to make your Booth a focused micro-site that promotes a single topic or product for your business. Cool, huh?

For an example of using an Online Expo Booth as a micro-site, Five Sparrows converted its Booth to be a micro-site for our newest product, ConnectPLUS Integrated Social Marketing™. Check it out here!

Your Online Expo Booth is an optimized, highly targeted web page that you can use to get the attention of customers as well as the search engines, especially when you add new, updated information to your Booth.

Here are some ideas you can use to update your Booth this month:

  • Recycle your advertisements! The ads you use for other publications can also be uploaded to your Booth.
  • Add a list of upcoming events that your business is sponsoring or attending this summer.
  • Replace your existing (or expired) coupon with something new for July

Remember to update the keywords in your account to match any new terms contained in the updated content.
