Evaluate Your Website’s Performance for a better Conversion.

You are dedicated to your business, you have a very beautiful website with important information for your user, but have you ever check how effective your website is?

When did you check up your website last time?

Did you ask a question to yourself that did evolute your site will help your customer?

I believe your answer will be “NO” for all the above questions!

Now let's dive into how evaluation will speed up your website performance.

As we all know that for an online business your website will be your very first step of creating an online presence, which will give you an identity in the Internet world. Your website can be promoted by several factors which were known as internet marketing strategy. If you fail in business or achieve success in your business all depend on your website performance.

If you are thinking of checking the analyse data of your website then it will be no use until you don't know the goal of your website. Before you start analyzing and optimizing your website you need to find the answer to the following points respectively:

• What is the percentage of visitors coming from various sources?
• What is the percentage of visitors getting converted?
• How much revenue getting per visitor?
• What is investment per sale?

However, almost all websites have installed Google and Bing analytic tool, if you don't have then install one or you can install both analytic and it is free of cost.

Here you can sign-in and get your free tracking code:

Google Analytic

Bing Analytic

Well, if you have done with the install then you will start getting your visitors information. In this case, most challenging part is to track the conversion customer details.

If you are getting a conversion rate of 4% to 8%, then is a normal conversion rate and if you are getting a conversion rate of more than 8% think it is good. However, if you are getting traffic from different sources like paid traffic, affiliate, referral, E-mail marketing, etc. then the conversion rate also varies respectively. If your running multiple program or source to get user then you have to track each source with the conversion rate for better performance.

Ladies and gentleman to get a petty conversion rate you have to work on multiple factors such as a landing page, font type, design, color combination, keyword density, image, etc. If you run some offer or discount on your product can rise -up your conversion rate. Also, a good landing page can increase 5% conversion, then your present conversion.

Sometimes your optimization may give you a negative result and some time good, but still you have to put your best effort in Optimization as organic traffic is the most powerful one you most look into, and the conversion rate also higher than other platform.

The conversion killing element is time, don't put your customer in a puzzle once they fall into your website. Set-up your sales funnel and according to your customer interest and demand, take help from analytic and work on that to get a simple way to customer for better conversion.

In India, nothing will happen till the moment customer won't trust you. Try to build the trust factor with the customer by providing guarantees, offers and great service. Also, if your product or service needs some documentation or formality then make it simple as it can be and process it faster.

Give multiple purchasing platforms with a different currency. A sales conversion needs lots of money and effort. If a user doesn't purchase something after surfing multiple pages, then may be the user is not getting the information what he is looking for.

Don't harsh your customer by providing wrong information or by opening multiple pop-ups or by run multiple ads on your website. It may force your customer to leave the website without any conversion.

Work for SEO and social media marketing as they are the basic source of user now a days.

Do needful for competitor analysis and online reputation management.

Consult with your website developer to improve website performance and loading time.

However, the market is changing so does the marketing technique. Keep your website updated, informative and user-friendly which is the real success mantra.

Which Hosting Is Best For You - VPS Or Dedicated?

VPS vs. Dedicated Server Hosting: Take Your Decision....

VPS runs its own copy of the operating system so a user can install any software on that operating system. It is much more easily created and configured. They are priced much lower than an equivalent physical server. That's why most people choose VPS since it can provide power that is many times better than shared hosting at comparable rates to shared hosting.

Hosting is of four general types:

Shared hosting, virtual private servers (VPS), managed hosting, and dedicated servers. Shared hosting plans are lowest in performance. Who want high-performance services that people choose VPS, managed hosting, or dedicated hosting options.
There are many different options available for people like VPS and Dedicated Servers.
From the last few years, VPS is becoming very popular among peoples. As this virtualization is becoming popular as it gives power and all facilities to people. There are a number of advantages and reasons why a company should choose to host their website or application with a VPS. Here are some reasons why VPS hosting is Necessary for a Business:

VPS provides More stability and reliability for web hosting

Shared web hosting will be a thing that people used in the past. As the VPS is taking its head up the common shared hosting will not be available in next few days.
When hosting with a shared server, your website’s uptime and performance get affected by the other websites on the same server. It is very important to look into the matter that is the Shared Hosting Plans are good for your business and are you willing to take lots of risks as it is impacting on your business?

Provides More control Than Shared Hosting:

One of the best use of hosting on a VPS plan is that users can get complete root access to the environment. In this way, if you want a custom software package installed on your OS, you can do it so without waiting for your hosting provider to support you with that. Shared web servers are typically most effective for security and performance, and this directly leads to that there are many well known hosting, software plans that are not supported due to security limitations. If you have your own virtual environment, then it will allow you to overcome all the issues that are coming while using.

VPS Is Environmental friendly, and more Efficient To Use:

Environmental friendly websites are becoming more popular in peoples from few last years. With a Dedicated Server Plan, you are accepting all the resources of a server – which means that you are the only person who is getting benefits from that server’s power utilization. With the help of a virtual private server, a large dedicated server is being divided many virtual environments. In this way, many people are sharing the resources of the physical server in a different manner.

Provides Scalability:

Some peoples who have websites established and do not expect much more variation in the amount of traffic they are receiving. For such people, this factor may not be that much of importance. However, for persons who are designing their website newly and with lots of hope, of growing their business Successful and getting lots of traffic from their sites for such persons growing it without any downtime and any resource issue is a very important thing.
When you take a VPS plan that is then stored in a container. This container is supported with a certain amount of resources depending on the Virtual Private Server Plan you have bought. The key thing about these containers is how they work is that they easily get allocated more or fewer resources as per your need. For example, if you want upgradetion of your ram very urgently when you are expecting a high stream of visitors, then you can just add more ram to your container easily by just clicking on a button. If you are using a dedicated server, then at that time a person has to physically install the new ram into.

VPS Is Very Cost-Effective Plan:

VPS hosting plans are now much less expensive than they were in the last few years. Because of virtualization, prices are expected to decrease. Due to this reason, VPS hosting is a good option for all the users having small or large sized website. It is very useful for those who just are starting their new brand new websites. You can get this VPS server at just a very small amount. This VPS plan is just as affordable as many shared hostings are.

Once you decide to go with a VPS solution, then the chances of coming back are very less. Many VPS plans also come up with the popular control panels that will take care of all your necessities related to the maintaining and managing the websites. If you are really interested then you can check VPS plans from Hostindia.net.

Apart from .com other domain few other extensions such as .net, .org, .edu, .gov, and few other website suffixes know as top level domain (LTDs). However, if you try to search a domain extension you can find hundreds of them and very soon thousands will come. But most of the people are not aware of every domain name. Before we discuss it, let's find out the domain history.

History Of Domain:

On 1^st January 1938 ARPANET adopted TCP/IP and from that day till now the internet is getting developed and has almost reached worldwide. In the very fastest history of internet discovery, there is no domain name facility for any web address. University of Wisconsin technicians developed a name server and the name server design for numeric only like http://202.52.134.103.

In 1985 the world has been introduced by domain name with extension in order to avoid confusion. From 1985 to till date millions and billions of domain has been registered. However, some domain have a very stranded price and few domains are known as premium domain having very high price, then expectation, like Insurance.com has sold out with $35.6 million in 2010 and Internet.com @ price of $18 million in 2009.

Why should I Choose another extension:

As .com is the very fast domain extension so it is easy to recall, But it's wake time. Look around, you will find tons of other extensions which give you an awesome website name to jump start your business.

Take an example of that you are going to open a coffee shop and looking for a domain name for your website! Now if you look for a domain name with .com extension, then you have to rub your mind at least ten times. Okay, it's time for thinking creatively.

How about fresh.coffee, refresh.coffee, shop.coffee, getme.coffee, drink.coffee, love.coffee,
