The simple answer is that we’ll work with you to fix it. We go out of our way to ensure compatibility before we update plugins, themes, or WordPress core software, but sometimes the results of an update are unexpected and things break. If an update we perform causes something to break, we’ll spend up to 1 hour trying to fix the problem. If we are unable to get the latest version of the theme or plugin to work properly on your site, we’ll roll back the update to the most recent stable version, and provide you with a recommendation for a path forward to get the issue resolved.

Before we get into what a rich snippet is, we first need to understand what a snippet is. Most Google search result snippets will include a URL, description, and title tag. Rich snippets, however, are search results with a bit of extra information gathered from the website. This can include a star-rating for a recipe to make it more eye-catching and increase the chances of the link being clicked on.

Although there is no specific number of characters required in a title tag, Google usually displays the first 50 to 60 characters when delivering search results based on the screen size you are using. If the title tag is longer than 60 characters, important elements of the title might be lost, such as the keywords or a call to action.

Traditionally, title length was measured in character length; today, search engines measure the length of a title tag in pixels, the smallest building block of your screen. The minimum suggested length of a title tag is 285 pixels; this would equal rough 30 characters. In terms of the maximum length, 575 pixels would be the max, which equates to 60 characters in length.

Title tags are bits of HTML that specify the title of your page, while meta description tags provide a brief summary of the page. These tags are visible in search engine results, so they play a major role in a user’s decision to click through to your site. Adding titles and meta descriptions to every page and post on your site can be tedious, but we can help you streamline the process and flag any pages and posts that fall through the cracks.

Here’s a comprehensive list of all of the directories where your company will be listed. These listings will also be maintained with an active Local SEO plan.

We don’t build prospects lists due to the low response and conversion rates we see when sending emails to these lists. We know reaching out to a warm audience, yields 5 to 10 times better response rates. If you do require prospects lists to be built, we can introduce you to a few of our trusted partners who can build prospecting lists for you.

No, we send our emails through your email account. Because all emails we send are sent from your email address, you’ll even see them in your “Sent” folder.

Cleaning up your email list improves the deliverability rate of your emails and strengthens your domain’s reputation by decreasing bounce rates, increasing open and click rates, and reducing spam complaints. Purging your list of unengaged subscribers also empowers you with more accurate reporting data and can even save you money if your email marketing service charges you per subscriber.

Generally, we recommend scrubbing your email list every year to get rid of any invalid email addresses and potentially remove email addresses that haven’t opened any of your emails in the past 6 months.

• An out-of-office reply is automated and can be sent for various reasons that wouldn’t count as a bounce or a reply. A bounce occurs when the email couldn’t be delivered for whatever reason – an out-of-office is actually a confirmation that someone has received the email; they just haven’t been able to read it.
• Keep tabs on these auto-replies and take note of when they occur most often. An out-of-office isn’t a stop sign, though! In fact, it would be a good idea to channel these replies into a follow-up flow, allowing you a second (and third) chance of reaching someone who hasn’t seen your email yet and is likely returning to an overflowing inbox after their mid-year break.

• When a prospect replies, we ask that you keep the reply in your inbox for 24 hours so that our software can pick up the reply and remove the prospect from the sequence, ensuring that they no longer receive any more emails. Clients can then take over the conversation and reply to the prospect like any other email. From here on, it is up to the client to foster the conversation with the prospect.
• If a prospect responds negatively, unfortunately, this is part and parcel of cold emailing. It will happen. We recommend just leaving the reply in your inbox for 24 hours so that our software can pick up the reply and remove the prospect from the sequence, ensuring that they no longer receive any more emails, and not responding. Once a prospect has responded, and the reply has been left in the inbox for 24 hours, that is the end of the campaign for them and they will no longer receive any communications

Both types of campaigns have the same goal: getting the customer from their current point into a stage where they’re accepting your meeting request and using your service or product.

The key difference is that the email drip campaign customer opted into your subscriber list, while the cold email campaign audience consists of leads you seek out.

We’ve put together a comprehensive guide to explain SiteCare’s process and everything you need to know about cold email marketing.

Time and materials is a standard phrase in a contract for SiteCare’s development services or any other piece of work in which an organization agrees to pay SiteCare based on the time spent by the SiteCare’s employees to perform the work. Time and Materials is generally used in projects in which it is not initially possible to accurately estimate the size of the project, or when it is expected that the project requirements would most likely change.

This is opposed to a fixed-price contract in which the organization agrees to pay SiteCare a lump sum for the fulfillment of a contract no matter what the effort entails for SiteCare.
