The Best Strategy for getting web development Leads??

3 replies
Hi

I am in talks with doing IM for one of my new client who is in the web, e-commerce development niche.

Which will be the best strategy for getting max leads/sales for such a niche.

Of course its LinkedIn first, but rather than that which will be the other options....

Regards

    Directly contacting the business is also a good options when you are starting up. Make sure to have some working projects/demos to show them.

      Hi,
      I've had a small web development agency for the past 15 years and these are the things that have worked well for us in the past:

      Offline:
      - Networking locally
      - Sponsoring of some projects (lower pricing), to get worth-of-mouth going
      - Some ads in local publications (however not my favorite)

      Online:
      - SEO through on-page optimization and blogging
      - A good project portfolio, keyword rich
      - Partnerships with other companies
      - Participating in the open-source community

      There are also lead-generating platforms that you can subscribe to. They do a lot of SEO themselves (at least in Belgium ) and provide qualified leads. Downside: they are costly.

      Hope this helps a bit,
      Murielle
