August issue of BabyWebNZ newsletter ? BabyWebNZ Blog

As a Midwife and Childbirth Educator, I have a mission to provide information that parents have told me they would like to have about pregnancy, babies and parenting.
BabyWebNZ is a way for New Zealand parents to access such information on many relevant websites here in our own country.
I increase awareness of BabyWebNZ through everything I do, including writing articles and teaching Childbirth Education classes.
Helen

Don?t forget to update your listings and banners if your information has changed. You can add pictures to your listings also. Renewal invoices have been sent out, if you have not received one and wish to renew for 2011 contact us.

In the last 6 months visits to BabyWebNZ came from more than 80 countries, with NZ and Australia dominating the list. A solid 83% of these have been new visitors. While 8% come via referring websites, the search engines stay the main source of incoming traffic, with almost 78% of all visitors coming to BabyWebNZ through Google?s ?organic search? (the actual search results as opposed to the paid advertising placements).

As such having a text listing on BabyWebNZ increases your exposure to people who use search engines and influences your website?s ?organic search? standings. Search engines love text and it is important to phrase your listing in a search engine friendly way ? using the keywords and phrases that people are likely to use when looking for products or services that you provide.

At the same time people are staying on average 4 minutes on the page giving them plenty of time to notice images that remain a more attractive site for a human eye than text-only listings. Don?t forget that you can now add pictures to the listings themselves.

A banner gives you ability to place your advertising on the top-hit pages in categories different from the ones you product or service normally falls under. I print about 10,000 flyers every year to give out to midwives and health practices, if you would like flyers also please contact us.
