Free Traffic

Mar 16, 2010 in Business

By free traffic, we generally refer to the number of web visitors that access a certain web page without the website owner paying for them. Free traffic represents the normal result of good web page optimization, indexation and maintenance. The popularity of a website should always be on the rise, provided that it addresses a niche market, and it promotes a quality product. Not all free traffic is good for business. That is a totally different question if we analyze the relevance of web surfers for a business.

Some business owners pay professional services to make their website competitive, increase the page rank and thus attract more people’s attention. The chances to make sales increase when you get more visitors directed to your pages. At least, this is what it seems to be like at first glance. The truth is that you can get a thousand visitors every day and make no sale, on the contrary you could lose money if you are using Google Adwords. How is this possible? The choice of keywords is what determines where things stand here. And I will show you how it works.

Let’s say you promote pet food. The keywords you select should be very relevant for your domain, or you risk to attract numerous visitors that are only after information but would never buy something. Thus, instead of using short keywords, you should go for the so called long-tails that are more specialized. Carefully look into the keywords status in case you have high free traffic but a low conversion rate.

Maybe you need to redefine your advertising campaigns and go into search engine optimization all over again. Use keyword tracking tools to find the keywords that are most high in demand, and then select from the software-generated lists, the terms that you consider appropriate. Some of these will be used for article marketing, others for search engine optimization, but they all aim at increasing the level of free traffic and sales.

You could do a bit of reading about the rules that make free traffic advantageous for businesses. You will inevitably come across suggestions and tips from marketing experts and more experienced marketers. Carefully select the strategies that best correspond to your business situation and then implement them. Good luck!

Property in Javea and Properties in Javea

Mar 16, 2010 in Business

Javea is a coastal town, in the province of Alicante. It sits behind a bay between two rocky headlands, Cabo San Antonio and Cabo La Nao. Surrounded by orange, lemon and olive groves. The town is dominated by the Montgo peak, 753 metres high, declared a Natural Park in 1997.

Montgo protects Javea from harsh north winds and it enjoys a micro-climate said to be one of the healthiest in the world. There are more recorded hours of sunshine than anywhere else in Spain making it popular with tourists and ex-pats alike. There is a population of about 32,000 people which swells to around 100,000 in the summer months, making properties in Javea very desireable

Javea lies midway between the cities of Alicante and Valencia, which both have international airports and has good road connections to both via the N332 A road or the A7 motorway. There is also a regular bus service to the two cities as well as a daily service to Madrid. The nearest railway station is Gata de Gorgos, a ten minute drive away, with a regular service to Alicante.

Property in Javea can be split into three distinct parts:
The Old Town, once a walled and fortified town to protect it from pirates, stone crosses now mark the original gates in three locations. In the centre of the town is the impressive church of Sant Bartolome which dates back to the 14th century although some of the structure may go back as far as the 11th century. The church suffered significant damage during the Spanish Civil War and shell and bullet holes can still be seen in some walls today.

There is an indoor market built in 1946 selling fruit, vegetables, meat and locally caught fish.
There is also a local museum, “Museo Historico y Etnografico Municipal J.B.Soler Blasco Javea”, which shows the history of Javea and can be visited between the hours of 10.00-13.00 and 17.00-20.00 and 10.00-13.00 weekends and bank holidays, but it is closed on Mondays.

The Port: popular with tourists due to its bars, restaurants, safe gravel beach and marina. The first jetty was built in 1871 and was important in the export of raisins. When the raisin trade collapsed at the end of the 19th century it became a fishing harbour which is how it remains today. There is also the landmark church “Nuestra Señora de Loreto” built in 1967, in the shape of a fishing boat going through the waves.

The Arenal:a wide beach of white sand with a promenade, bars and restaurants. There is an outdoor craft market during the summer as well as sand artists and street entertainers. There is also a Parador Hotel behind which once stood the “Punta del Arenal” a Roman settlement. On the other end of the bay once stood the Fontana Castle whose canons can still be seen outside the Sant Bartolome church in the old town.

Market day is on Thursday except when it is a bank holiday. There are many multinational and multilingual businesses some of which offer javea properties at exceptional prices. There are three local fiestas, San Juan in June, Moors and Christians in July and Nuestra Señora de Loreto in September. There is a large range of rental centres and shops catering to a wide range of activities including cycling, diving, fishing, golf, horse riding, sailing and hiking.
