OurChurch.Com Celebrates Search Marketing Month with Info and Deals
Tampa, FL, May 07, 2009 --(PR.com)-- OurChurch.Com, a leading provider of custom web design, hosting, search marketing, and advertising services to Christian organizations and individuals, has announced a month long initiative to educate people about search engine marketing and make search marketing more affordable for churches and schools as well as businesses.
Search engines have revolutionized the world. They have changed the way we shop, the way we read news, the way we find a plumber, and even the way we look for a church or school. Entire industries like the yellow pages and newspapers are crumbling as a result, but from their ashes new organizations are rising.
“Organizations that understand the power of search engines to connect people to their church, school, or business are quickly rising to the top of their markets,” said Paul Steinbrueck, CEO of OurChurch.Com.
According to a recent TMP Directional Marketing study, 31% of people use search engines as their first source of local business information, followed by Print Yellow/White Pages (30%), Internet Yellow Pages (19%), and local search sites (11%). While search engines barely edged out the print yellow and white pages by 1% for the top spot, when all the online sources are combined the online sources comprised 61% of the local business resources. This is more than double that of the print yellow pages and white pages.
“Unfortunately, churches, schools, and many small businesses have not reacted to this shift in our society. Whether it’s because they aren’t aware of the importance of search marketing or because they think it will take too much time or cost too much money, they still rely on the old off-line marketing, missing an ever-increasing target audience,” said Kurt Steinbrueck, OurChurch.Com’s Director of Marketing Services. “We hope to make churches, schools and small businesses more aware of the need to market themselves online or at least make themselves visible online, give them information to help them do that, and provide services that are very affordable.”
During the month of May, OurChurch.Com will be offering a variety of different resources related to search marketing, including blog articles, case studies, links to information, and forum discussions. In addition, OurChurch.Com is offering discounts on most of their Search Marketing services, including 50% off their Deluxe Directory Registration services and no setup fee (up to $499 savings) on all SEO services.
