About ConnQuest.com
ConnQuest.com
has been online since 1997. The name ConnQuest is "Connecticut Quest" merged.
The original
purpose of the Connquest domain was to serve as a web design company.
We built and managed some web sites for the first couple of years.
The main concern
of web site owners was once thier site was online, how would they attract
visitors? Generate sales? Generate leads?
"Build it
and they will come" definately does not apply to web sites. In fact,
web marketing is an almost entirely different business than web site design
and web site hosting. I say "almost" because your web site designer must
know some Internet marketing in order to make the proper changes to your
web site. Simply put, if you submit the same web site to the search engines
you will get the same results.
In addition
to wanting more visitors business (web site) owners also have additional
needs. Demographics is very important. Connecticut businesses serving specific
regions of Connnecticut have a need for a specific targeted audience. Likewise,
CT businesses that offer products and services statewide need an entirely
different type of exposure. I could go on for hours about this and how
secure online sales nationwide from a CT business would have different
requirements. In addition to the need for nationwide exposure they will
benefit the most from targeted advertising by topic. Online businesses
without a physical location seek topical advertising only. Brick and mortar
companies (with a physical location) need both forms of exposure, by topic
and location.
The point...
You can have
the prettiest site on the Internet but if it does not receive interested
visitors, the site and your investment will just sit there uselessly.
Quick Fact:
The average web site sits near stagnant for about three months before the
owner stops wasting money to host it and pulls the plug.
Another fact:
The average site with a modest amount of advertising receives less than
300 visits a month.
Oh... back to
About ConnQuest. The overwhelming need for demographic exposure and our
Quest to fullfill the need made the ConnQuest domain evolve into a major
Connecticut Internet portal. It has thousands of CT web sites organized
by both topic and location.
Now if we build
a web site (web site design) we can generate traffic (web site marketing)
and results (successful web sites).
Now if we want
to promote a site by topic or region in CT we have a solid base of traffic
and stability.

Before we sold
ad space we wanted to test it out. We then added links to a variety of
affiliate programs. We did this in a way that would not compromise the
site by avoiding pop up ads, and other intrusive ad tactics. The
small amount of ads we have are in highly targeted locations so our visitors
would only encounter them if that is exactly what they are searching for.
Not only does this make surfing out site easy (without annoying banner
ads or pop up windows), but it also delivers great results (high sales
ratios) to our ads.
If you would
like to add your CT or Connecticut related site to our directory you can
Suggest
your site here. *Note: A link back on a working page (no links pages)
is required.
