3 Ways to Create a Successful Small Business Microsite

NEW YORK, Jan. 21, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- To stay relevant and visible during the ongoing evolution of digital communications, small business marketers are continually identifying cost- and time-efficient marketing tools that can be incorporated into their overall program. One such tool – microsites – uses different forms of branding to reach new target audiences, and has the power to promote a product, launch a promotion or enhance a current marketing campaign.

In his latest post on PR Newswire's Small Business PR Toolkit, contributing author Phillip Thune provides three must-haves for a successful microsite:

Specific topic. A microsite provides site guests with concise and precise information about your product, campaign or promotion. Once a visitor lands on the site, it should be clear from the get-go what the purpose is. Reinforce your message by posting high-quality content that educates potential customers and offers no distractions from other product mentions.

Distinct voice. The microsite should be an extension of your brand but can have a distinctive voice that captures the attention of your visitors. Be cognizant of the important elements that define your small business brand, and incorporate them into your microsite.

For further discussion on the important elements of microsites, read Thune's complete article here.
