I know how it goes, you have a limited budget, and often times marketing gets put on the back burner because you just don&#8217;t have the budget for it.  The problem is while you spend time working on improving your marketing budget, you&#8217;re missing out on new customers who are going to your competitors.<br />

The website funnel is simply a model or concept that your website has X amount of visitors, ideally about 5-10% will show interest in what you offer, about 3-8% will become qualified leads, and about 1-3% will become new customers.  As you move down the funnel, you drop off more and more ...]]></description>

2006: Search engines claim to be battling spam and link building, specifically link exchanges, by diminishing the importance of anchor text<br />
