Welcome
to
Consultwebs.com's
Web maintenance plans site. A Web site provides many
benefits if it is designed well, has valuable content and
is well maintained. These benefits include new business,
reduced administrative requirements and significant cost savings
by providing materials online in electronic format.
Maintaining
a fresh, professional site has more challenges today due to
a variety of factors. These include numerous programming
technologies and the complexity of search engine submissions
and maintenance.
We
have trained several of our clients to maintain their own
sites and marketing efforts. However, many organizations
do not have the time, staff nor budget to fully maintain a
Web site. These organizations make the decision to outsource
all or a portion of their Web maintenance. Consultwebs.com
serves as the full or partial Webmaster and Web marketing
arm for many such organizations.
As
mentioned above, it is difficult to keep up with the changes
in free, pay-for-inclusion and click-through search engine
options. The June 2, 2002 Overture top bid for the phrase
"personal injury" was $12 per "click-through"
to obtain the number one ad listing. Google, LookSmart,
Yahoo and others have specific procedures for ad placement.
We insure that our clients are visible in prominent business
and legal
directories
by investing a substantial amount of money each month in pay-for-inclusion
search engines and directories' sponsor locations. We
manage client investments by analyzing the options, budgets
and making the placements for our clients. Comparable
effort by an individual business would require expertise,
a minimum of five hours per month and an average
search engine/directory investment of $200 to $500 per month.
Many law firms and businesses pay far more than this and do
not have the time nor data to determine if their investment
is worthwhile.
Consultwebs.com
is staffed to provide responsive Web maintenance and marketing
assistance. We offer a variety of plans and can do as
little or as much as needed. We can also customize
a plan for your specific needs.
We
maintain sites throughout the United States and England, including
U.S. clients in New York, California, Georgia, Connecticut,
Maryland, North Dakota, Texas, Virginia, New Jersey, Missouri,
Illinois, Florida, North Carolina, Wisconsin and other states.
Consultwebs.com
has a highly qualified staff of professionals. Consultwebs.com's
Dale Tincher is a North Carolina Bar Association endorsed consultant.
He addresses more than 1,000 attorneys per year at CLE functions
for legal organizations such as the ABA,

Our
Web maintenance plans include an Exclusive Regional Marketing
Plan. We also offer a Law Firm or Commercial Business
Web Care Plan which offers marketing and maintenance services
to law firms and businesses and a Gold Plan which is designed
to dramatically minimize an organization's in-house maintenance
requirements. We also offer a Silver Plan and a Bronze
plan. Our offerings are as follows:
Exclusive
Regional Marketing Plan
Consultwebs.com
will enter into an exclusive agreement for an exclusive
marketing plan for a region and area(s) or practice or business.
A region is typically defined as a population area of 1,000,000
people. The plan provides comprehensive, personalized
Web site and law firm/business promotion. Components,
some of which are covered in our
Law
Web Success site and the plans below, include top search
engine rankings, high-quality domain names (when applicable)
and prominent placement in key directories. The plan
typically requires 300 to 500 hours effort by Consultwebs.com
staff members and approximately 15 hours effort on the client's
part. Ongoing maintenance of the effort is substantially
less, requiring approximately 7 hours per month. We
can demonstrate that clients for whom we have developed
this program obtain new clients each month.
We
will visit with you and analyze your firm or business and
present an exclusive marketing plan for a fee of $750 plus
travel expenses. The fee will be applied to your marketing
plan when you agree to work with us. Please contact
Dale Tincher at 919-272-8052 or
dtincher@consultwebs.com for more details on this plan.
Certain regions are no longer available.
Premium
Web Care Plan - $795 per month (contracted quarterly, paid

Many
Web marketing firms charge several thousand dollars per
month for Web marketing and maintenance plans. Consultwebs.com
has developed an in-house team and process that provides
more results for considerably less investment. We
have worked hard to develop our position as acknowledged
experts in Law Firm and business Web Marketing. We
are pleased to offer our expertise at reasonable prices.
Our
Law Firm Web Care components include:
- Proactive
consulting on areas of practice in which you should be concentrating.
For example, if a new "tax act" or "medical
subject" become prominent, Consultwebs.com will inform
the firm and suggest updates or, if applicable, additional
Web sites; Consultwebs.com subscribes to numerous listserves
and receives several legal e-newsletters. Also included
in the Law Firm Web Care package are marketing tips.
These include items such as applicable link sites (for popularity
links) and directories, new legal Web occurrences and others
as applicable.
