When chasing value, one of the hardest challenges is to overcome the human tendency to grab the obvious bargain. Cheap things often cost more in the long run, as 19th-century philosopher John Ruskin noted, " Unwise to pay too much, but it is worse to pay too little," he wrote. "When you pay too much, you lose a little money. When you pay too little, you sometimes lose everything, because the thing you bought is incapable of doing [what] it was bought to do." More than anything, this applies to this applies to our approach to SEO implementation.

Web design & Branding

Branding is more than just words and designs. It must be accompanied with great actions. Otherwise, it will all be a waste of time and money. Every brand has a story to tell. Some are inspirational while others are tragic. In so many ways, building a brand is like telling a great story. At the heart of both crafts is the power to evoke emotions from the audience. Great storytellers can make you cry while branding experts can make you buy. In some aspect, branding is different from storytelling for it is a two-way system. In stories, the author controls the ideas and plots. In branding, your story is a collaboration of your vision and opinions of your customers, suppliers and even competitors.

eCommerce (and cocooning)

So... how do you get from Cocooning to eCommerce?
Cocooning is the name given to the trend that sees individuals socializing less and retreating into their home more. This trend was recognized back in the 1990s and has been increasing ever since. Many companies have realised what we envision as the true potential of the cocooning trend and so they market products based on this principle, via the Internet.

We certainly live in a different world these days as compared to even 10 years ago, when eCommerce was just in it's infancy. This recent article lays out that eCommerce is on it's way to become 250 Billion industy in 2014, not counting Europe nor the rest of the world.

Wow, I knew ecommerce was a big industry but I didn’t realise just how big!
Forrester Research has published a report which predicts that online retail sales will continue to grow and by 2014 online sales and ecommerce are estimated to reach $248 Billion dollars!. These figures are for US and does not include online sales for Europe, Japan and the rest of the world.

Web design & Branding

Even though this was published back in 2003, Here's an absolutely great article. Elevator pitches that don't work. 350 smart marketers were asked to eveluate the one line elevator pitches from 17 big, well known companies. The one liners were scrambled up; so no one knew which one liner belonged to which company. All marketers were asked a simple question: Match the pitch the to company.

eBay, of course, is "To help practically anyone buy and sell practically anything". But which company, precisely, is "Continued investments in IT result in measurable productivity gains.?"

EXPECTING your ads to communicate ideas this complicated in a sentence or two is ridiculous. Just having great websites is not the answer eiter. This is where true branding comes in to play. Marketing guru Seth Godin, in this acticle titled "Brand as mythology" he published in 2006, cleverly aligns branding and myhology.

Most of us remember the mythology stories they taught us in school (Zeus and Thor and the rest of the comic-like heroes.) Myths allow us to project ourselves into their stories, to imagine interactions that never took place, to take what's important to us and live it out through the myth.

There are dozens, if not hundreds of entertainment mythological brands. James Bond and Barbie, for example.

But it goes far behond that.

There's clearly a Google mythology and a Starbucks one was well. We feel differently about brands like these than we do about, say Maxwell House or Random House.

Why do Santa and Ronald McDonald have a mythology but not Dave at Wendy's or the Burger King?

People use a Dell. They are an Apple.

This can happen accidentally, but it often occurs on purpose. A brand can be deliberately mythological, created to intentionally deliver the benefits of myth. Casinos in Las Vegas have been trying to do this for decades (and usually failing). But talk to a Vegas cab driver about Steve Wynn and you can see that it's been done at least once.

Branding can be compared to a process that is alive. It is constant, alsways happening. Although the word process may connote something cumbersome, most branding processes can be (and should be) simple to the point of becoming second nature. As such, branding becomes like the syntax that children learn to align words into meaningful sentences. They allow entire organizations to communicate with their customers more effectively and convincingly
