Toronto, ON (PRWEB) May 5, 2005 -- Hot Banana Software Inc., a leading North American Web Content Management (CMS) company, today announced that Beaver Machine Corporation, the leading manufacturer of bulk vending machines, with one of the most recognizable brands in North America, has Search Engine Optimized (SEO) and leveraged the sales conversion rate on their newly launched Web site (www.beavervending.com) using Hot Bananas Web Content Management Suite (CMS) with integrated WebTrends 7 analytics. This announcement was made from the Hot Banana booth at the Search Engine Strategies Show and Conference, May 4-5, 2005 in Toronto, at Booth #212.
By providing Beavers marketing management with the hands-on ability to change content, to launch Internet marketing campaigns and to track and measure actionable Web site sales conversion data, including the analysis of Search Engine Optimization for the various Beaver brands, Beaver Machine Corporation experienced a gain in Web traffic and lead conversions to actual sales. Hot Banana helped Beaver Machine increase its Web site visitors from 2,500 to 6,000 per month, page views from 2.1 to 3.6 per visitor, and single access pages reduced by 60%. As a result, Beavers online sales leads acquired from the Web site, converted to an increase in revenues.
Beaver Machine Corporations online business continues to grow at a strong pace. In fact, the measurable ROI from the cost of Hot Banana to the new revenues generated equaled 1400%, and for every dollar spent on the Web site $4 were generated in profits from its online business after implementing the Hot Banana powered Web site. This significant growth of its online business underscores the importance of using the Hot Banana Web Content Management Suite as a strategic platform to optimize its online sales lead generation and conversion process, making it easy for customers to select and request quotations online, and ultimately to help Beaver achieve optimal business results.
Hot Banana was selected as the preferred Web CMS for its unique ability to be search engine friendly. Within 24 hours of the Beaver Web site going live, the Google robot spider had indexed the majority of the Beaver Web site and had favorably ranked many of the business objective pages after the first Google refresh. This SEO friendly benefit combined with Hot Bananas integrated Internet marketing campaigns, such as email marketing and WebTrends 7 analytics gave high marketing ROI value to campaigns and conversion paths.
"The solution selection process was driven solely by our business needs," explains Matt Miller, Director of Marketing for Beaver Machine Corporation. "Easy content editing and campaign management is critical, and Hot Banana surpassed our expectations and helped to transform Beaver Machine into a sharp online business, selling our products globally. Our organic search traffic was so good versus traffic from paid search efforts, that we actually reduced our paid search budget. Hot Banana allowed us to constantly refine our Search Engine Optimization (SEO) initiatives while closely monitoring paid keyword performance. Our strong Web site has now turned out to be the most effective use of our marketing dollars and now WebTrends tracking allows us to closely measure our return on investment."
