			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>We understand that a lot of small businesses don&#8217;t have money upfront to pay for a website and all the hosting. This is why we have two options:</p>
<p>1. you can pay 50% deposit and 50% balance when your project is finished</p>
<p>2. split that balance across 12 easy monthly payments.</p>
<p>You can purchase more items by adding to your monthly payments. It&#8217;s a great way to help your business grow!</p>
<p>An example is our small business starter pack at £425 (+vat). This would work out at £35.42/month which gets you a domain name, website, emails and hosting for the year.</p>

		<description><![CDATA[Would you do business with a bank if the emloyees emailed you on a FREE email account like gmail, hotmail or aol? I don't think so! So why do so many businesses spend a fortune on a website but then use FREE email accounts. ]]></description>
			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>It seems that so many organisations lets themselves down on the basic principles of showing a trustworthy image on the internet.</p>
<p>You see an expensive website with all the current trends that shows a wonderful image. You like what you see so click on a contact-us form and you get a nice page that says thank-you for your enquiry and that a representative will get back to you in a few hours. You then see an email from business@hotmail.com, or you may not see it as it is in your spam. Would you then go and spend your good earned money with this company when all your communication is to a FREE email account.</p>
<p>I don&#8217;t think you would as it does not instill confidence that the organisation is here for the long term.</p>
<p>The biggest industry I see this in is the travel trade and hotels, self catering, B&amp;B, holiday cottage establishments.</p>
<p>It only takes a few pounds a year to close this gap and I am sure will drive a lot more business and reduce the bounce rate of visitors to your website.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Praeparo launch a consulting approach to help companies undertake Do It Yourself (DIY) or in-house  search engine optimisation and marketing.</p>
<p>Many small businesses can&#8217;t afford to outsource search engine optimisation or marketing and even to take on an external link building campaign is out of financial reach. In a lot of situations these companies turn to cheap submit programmes or link exchanges that don&#8217;t return any satisfactory results.</p>
<p>Today, Praeparo have formalised what we started by accident in providing packages that allow companies to perform in-house search engine optimisation or a full blown search engine marketing campaign with the assistance of a specialist digital marketing company.  We provide the ability during a month for companies to ask questions and or have a site visit. These questions can be a form of training and/or technical answers. For example:</p>
<ul>
<li>What tools can we use to work out the effectiveness of keywords?</li>
<li>What do think to this as a keyword we should target?</li>
<li>We have optimised our website page for a given keyword can you perform a quick verification?</li>
<li>Can you provide guidance on how to implement google analytics?</li>
</ul>
<p>We do have some restrictions on the questions in that it is not a way to obtain our other services on the cheap, it is all about you the company owning and doing the work with advice and verification by ourselves. The whole concept is to de-risk and optimise what you are doing.</p>
<p>For more information please <a title="diy marketing" href="http://praeparo.com/do-it-yourself-diy-digital-marketing/">see our diy marketing pages</a> or use our contact form to ask specific questions or request a call back.</p>
