Google AdWords vs. Yellow Pages

Choosing the right online advertising medium can be difficult. With all of the different platforms available, how do you know what will work best for your business? With Webspec Design we can help you narrow down the direction that will be best for your company.

For the longest time, the best way to reach a variety of people who might be looking for your business was to put your information and an ad in the phone book. With today’s technology, the phone book has become a thing of the past. The costs for their services keep rising, while your return diminishes. It is time to take your business to the next level.

Webspec Design specializes in online advertising, specifically Google AdWords and social media advertising. Google and its affiliate websites are undoubtedly some of the most well known online company names worldwide. Google alone is the most used search engine with approximately 60% of all online searches using its services. According to a study done by comScore data in 2011, over one billion different people visit Google’s websites per month – making it the first company to accomplish this milestone.

In addition to Google’s reach, you can also take advantage of social media advertising. Facebook adverting has a reach of over 900 million people, all of whom can be specifically targeted. Combine that with twitters 140 million active users, LinkedIn’s 161 million members and various other social media opportunities and your business has the chance to gain an audience with more potential than anything the phone book can offer.

So if you are interested in trying something new and taking your business to the next level, let Webspec Design help you get there. For more information on our services feel free to contact us.
