In most cases it’s a lot cheaper to advertise online vs. offline (with the exception of using wristbands). But I have a feeling that’s all about to change. As more and more people start using the online world as a means to make a living the prices for advertising will increase.

As the price of advertising online begins to rise we will start weeding out a lot of the attempts of running an online business. At this moment in time the traffic is cheap and the site owner feels that there is no need to try and improve his visitors experience. But I’m already starting to hear the whining as the cost of traffic begins to rise.

There are some that will cry about the cost and others that will understand the free ride is over and it’s time to start improving their websites. The ones that improve their designs, fix their shopping carts, clean up their copy and look for new and better ways to improve their visitors experience. These will be around in the coming years. The ones that continue to look for free or cheap traffic will continue to find that there is never enough traffic to convert their visitors into customers.

At Wristbands With A Message we have already started working towards improving our visitors experience and we are just getting started.
