Frequently Asked Questions

1. General Questions

1.1. What is QuickList?

QuickList is a subscription service that gives your business visibility in the search engines. We place your business directly in front of potential clients and customers.

1.2. How does it work?

QuickList works in two ways. First, we submit your website to the major search engines, including Google, Yahoo and Bing. Second, we create a customized pay-per-click advertising campaign based on keywords related to your business. When a user searches one of your keywords, your ad is triggered and prospective customers are presented with your website.

1.3. What exactly is "pay-per-click advertising?"

Pay-per-click (PPC) advertising is an innovative way to tap into your online audience. Whether you know it or not, there are people interested in your product or service looking for you online. PPC advertising lets you target these people at precisely the right moment — when they search for a keyword related to your business. If you operate a dry cleaning business in Fort Worth, Texas, for example, it makes sense to target people searching for things like "Fort Worth dry cleaners," "dry cleaning in Fort Worth" and "dryclean Fort Worth Texas." With a PPC campaign, you can. Moreover, since your ads are displayed only when a user searches for one of your keywords, PPC is the most cost-effective form of advertising available. There is no wasted effort. There are only results.

1.4. So what happens after I join QuickList?

When you join QuickList, our knowledgable account representatives analyze your website and create a customized PPC campaign. This includes selecting a list of targeted keywords specific to your business and industry, and creating customized text advertisements. When a user searches one of your keywords, your ad is triggered, and the user is directed to your website. The amount of traffic you receive is determined by the budget of the QuickList package you select.

1.5. Do you offer a package for my business? How much will it cost?

When you sign up for QuickList, you have the option of choosing among the following packages:

Starter - Conservative Traffic Volume ($149/month)
If you want to get started, but you're not exactly sure how it works, the Starter package may be right for you. The Starter package is a low-cost way to boost your website traffic. If you decide you want more traffic down the line, you can always upgrade to our Core or Premier packages.

Core - Competitive Traffic Volume ($249/month)
Our most popular, the Core package is a great place to start. Designed for those seeking a competitive volume of traffic, the Core package offers higher visibility in the search engines and more opportunity for clicks and conversions. Likewise, the higher budget means we can select a larger variety of keywords to trigger your ads, giving you a serious edge over your competition.

Premier - Aggressive Traffic Volume ($349/month)
The Premier package is designed for those seeking an aggressive volume of traffic and the highest level of visibility in the search engines. Likewise, the Premier package is the recommended choice for those competing in highly saturated markets like real estate.

Have a larger budget? No problem. We can customize your PPC campaign based on your individual needs. In other words, the packages are just a starting point. The sky is the limit.

1.6. Why should I choose Wpromote?

When you choose Wpromote as your PPC advertising partner, you have the highest possible chance of success. Whereas many competitors guarantee a specific number of clicks for a predetermined price, Wpromote's QuickList service does not limit clicks this way. With QuickList, you can receive as many clicks as possible within your budget — and if you want more clicks, you increase your budget. It's that simple. You never have to pay-per-click and you can count on us to optimize your campaign, so you receive the highest quality clicks for your money. That is our guarantee.

1.7. Who should use QuickList? Is QuickList for me?

QuickList is for anyone who wants to advertise online, including:

- Website Owners
- Online Businesses
- Small Local Businesses
- Corporations
- Entrepreneurs
- eCommerce Sites

We work with a wide range of clients in various industries, from small Internet start-ups to local brick-and-mortar businesses to Fortune 500 corporations. No client is too big or small.

1.8. Why won't Wpromote guarantee #1 positioning?

You may be expecting us to guarantee results or tell you that your website will come up as #1 everytime. It is actually not possible to guarantee #1 positions. In fact, while many of our competitors offer such promises, it is actually impossible to guarantee things like clicks or positioning. This is because the success of any PPC campaign depends on a wide array of factors, some of which you can control yourself, and others you cannot. Our job at QuickList is to optimize the controllable factors to give you the best possible chance to succeed and we know our approach works. Just ask the many satisfied clients and customers we have had the pleasure of serving over the past 12 years.

1.9. When I order QuickList, what will I get?

When you become a QuickList member, you can expect:

- Targeted website traffic
- Higher visibility in the search engines
- The highest quality customer care and support
- A knowledgeable PPC specialist dedicated to optimizing your campaign

There are a lot of fly-by-night search engine marketing firms out there. Some get into the business to make a quick buck, others because they think it is an easy way to capitalize on the growing demand for online advertising, but none of these companies have the experience of Wpromote. Wpromote has been helping companies like yours succeed for over 12 years and counting. We are a member of the Better Business Bureau online and boast the honor of being recognized as a Google AdWords Qualified Company and Microsoft adCenter Member.

1.10. Why do I have fewer than the maximum number of keywords for my plan?

If you signed up for either our Core or Premier package you may notice that you have fewer than the maximum 25 or 50 keywords (respectively) in your account. There is a reason that Wpromote tries to do this. Extensive market research has shown that by concentrating more of your budget on fewer high performing terms, the overall performance of your advertising will significantly improve. This will eliminate the problem of spreading an advertising budget too thin and not giving your top words the ability to perform at their highest level.

Every modification we make to an account is in the best interest of our clients. We make these decisions based on our intimate knowledge of the online advertising community, along with previous experiences with our clients. With that said, you will always have the ability to make any changes to your account, even if it is against our recommendations.

1.11. I already use PPC or Google AdWords. Do I still need QuickList?

Unless you are an expert in PPC advertising, the Internet can be a difficult place to navigate. With search engine marketing rules in constant flux, it's smart to partner with a firm dedicated to your success. What is more, when you join QuickList, you can rest easy knowing your PPC advertising campaign is in the hands of professionals with 12 years of experience and a wealth of expertise.
