According to the Canadian Internet Registration Authority, Canadians use the Internet more than individuals anywhere else in the world, spending an average of 45.6 hours on the Internet each month. The world average comes in at only 24.4 hours. In addition, Canadians watch more videos online than others do, with the average person viewing 300 videos in this time period. "Web designers need to take information such as this into account when creating a website for a business and choose a company specializing in Web Development for Calgary that has the skills to create a website meeting the needs of Canadian consumers,” Shae Inglis of Acro Media Inc. explains.

2014 has arrived, and the new year likely heralds many changes to Web Design Vancouver. Experts predict simple color schemes will make a comeback, designers will experiment with various types of typography to make sites unique and videos will become more commonplace. "Certain trends tend to lend themselves to one type of site or another, yet some trends work with any website, such as scrolling sites, and many companies are expected to adopt this technique with the help of a Vancouver web development firm," Shae Inglis of Acro Media Inc. declares.

Industry statistics report 100 billion searches every month on Google or 3.3 billion a day. The undisputed king of search engines, Google rankings mean everything to businesses, small and large. However, smaller businesses are especially struggling to have their listings seen by the masses. With this in mind, Shae Inglis, spokesperson for Acro Media, recently announced an SEO Vancouver local marketing campaign aimed at helping small businesses in the area obtain more leads and a higher conversion rate.

Statistics from the marketing industry reveal 70 percent of small business owners have taken classes on Search Engine Optimization in an attempt to improve their online presence on their own while only 47 percent of those are seeing any actual results from such ventures. In fact, less than 13 percent of entrepreneurs who create their own websites and marketing campaigns are confident they are using the tactics they learned correctly. In light of these figures, Acro Media Inc. has launched increased efforts to help the remaining 87 percent who still need assistance with improving various elements of their website design.

Marketing campaigns in recent history reached their target audiences through television, radio, newspapers and magazines; however, due to current advances in technology, these avenues are becoming increasingly ineffective. Statistics indicate 90 percent of the viewing public omit television commercials. Customized programming options have all but eliminated radio as a viable marketing route. Magazines, newspapers and other physical publications are steadily giving way to their digital counterparts.

According to a recent statistic released, companies that blog get 55% more web traffic. Granted, more web traffic is not the only goal, Shae Inglis, spokesperson for Acro Media, a Vancouver Internet Marketing firm said, but, it's a good start.

Most companies don't grasp the importance of creative design when it comes to their website. If a website bring in traffic, many companies feel no changes need to be made. "Websites follow trends just as fashion and hairstyles do. Customers need to pay attention to these trends and make changes as needed," Shae Inglis explains.

Statistics indicate there are more than one million small businesses in Canada alone, and an excess of six million in the United States. Related studies show that having a successful website can boost sales for small and medium sized businesses by at least 56 percent, but only about 32 percent of these companies in Canada are taking advantage of the benefits brought about by professional web design vancouver. In an effort to increase the number of businesses reaping the positive rewards from a well built, customized vancouver web design, Acro Media Inc. announces the launch of their unique website designs built around the needs of their clients.

According to statistics released recently, the once popular free websites and templates utilized by small businesses and individuals have seen a decline in users during the last five years. According to Shae Inglis, spokesperson for Vancouver Internet marketing company Acro Media Inc, this trend is now going toward custom websites, instead.
