"Half of
my advertising costs is wasted: my problem is to understand which half".
(William
Lever; Henry Ford - beginning 900)
Imagine two
travel net-companies, competing to be leader in providing
holidays in USA, both able to impress you with their advertising
campaign.
One promote
the site exxastour.it, the other one suggests holidayinusa.com.
Which one
do you remember and visit easily?
How many
times do they advertise the more difficult name hoping
you could remember and write it correctly?
How many
resource will they burn if they don't invest in an effective
domain name?
Too many!
A research
by PriceWaterhouseCooper and Fletcher Advisory, about the top 150
publicly listed European internet companies, shows that marketing
costs effectiveness makes the difference between the
strugglers and the survivors.
An effective
domain name can be cheaper than only one insertion or
spot announcement.
There is
a difference: it's forever.
