    Is Your Web Site an Expense or an Investment?

    Why don't you think of your web site as of an investment rather than of an expense? Having a web site is very similar to having an investment property.

    Let me show you why.

    When you are buying an inves
    According to USFDA, a combination product is one composed of any combination of a drug and device; biological product and device; drug and biological product
    tment property, you have to invest a certain amount of money at the first place and then pay trivial ongoing fees (property management, rates, maintenance, etc.).

    From time to time you would spend some money on improvements and renovations.

    You are receiv

    Examples of combination products may in

    The very same arrangement applies to your web site. At first you are paying for web design and search engine optimisation and then carrying out some ongoing expenses (web promo

    tion, maintenance, support, monitoring, fine-tuning, etc.).

    And from time to time you spend some money on enhancements and new marketing initiatives.

    Your site is getting sound web traffic and your business is benefiting from new and returned clients and
    here is enormous increase in the number of combination products entering the market in the recent years. Combination products have proven advantages but fixe
    ultimately from more sales.

    So far both, your investment property and your web site look very much alike, don't they?

    There is a big difference though. Your rental income is limited by numerous factors that are beyond your control, for instance, area vaca

    Internet, on the other hand, has no limits. Everyday, search engines alone average over 300 million searches conducted by people looking for information, products, and services.

    How to achieve 200% Return On Investment from Your Web Site

    Now let's get back to your investment property. The market is
    easingly used in the product life cycle management. Even the companies having product patents are trying to extend their product life cycle through the combi

    But being applied to your web site, a ROI of 20

    0% (and much higher) becomes very visible. And it's easy to calculate.

    Pretend that you've spent $20,000 on setting-up and are paying $1,000 a month for maintenance resulting in an annual expenditure of $32,000. You want to not only get a 200% ROI but to a

    To achieve that you need to sell $96,000 worth of products online. If your average price per item is $100, then you need to sell 960 items in 12 months.

    Let's be conservative and a

    ssume that your online purchasers will only buy one item at the time. So you need 960 buyers (80 buyers a month).

    Many studies show that an average online conversion rate is between 1% and 5%.

    Because since we are conservative, we expect our conversion ra

    A typical well-optimised online store would have much greater traffic. In fact, one of our own clients gets 800+ visitors every d

    Which markets to tap where the combination products can do fairly well?
    Which combination prod

    Now let's do some math.

    32,000 visitors x 3% conversion rate x $100 average sale price = $96,000 in revenue and 200% ROI.

    But there is more.

    You Can Do Better! Is 1,000% ROI a Myth or a Reality?

    The more products you have to showcase, the more entry points you provide for search engines resulting in more online visitors.

    As combination products don't fit into the traditional categories of drugs, medical devices, or biological products, the USFDA is in the process of devel

    If we take into account that your market is a niche market and you can effectively reach your target audience, then we can expect t

    You've been innovative and have developed a pursuing after-sales strategy including multiple purchasing, special deals for more purchasing wit

    Now our math looks quite differently.

    64,000 x 6% x $110 = $422,400 in revenue and ... take a breat

    As there is an increasing trend of the combination products companies manufacturing such products should be able to tackle the problems involved in the de

    Over time your online performance can only be better simply because mature sites are ranked better in search engines, your online catalogue is getting bigger, your web traffic is growing and you have a steady income stream from ret

    Although the above scenario may not suit all business models, your web site can (and should) deliver outstanding return on investment.

    So, if you like the picture and if you never thought of your web site as of an investment, think again.
