Website development

The traits of a good Website Development Company

What do you look for while you hire a good Website development company? Usually, it is the deadline by which they can give you the website. A lot of companies are in a hurry to build their websites because they believe it gives them a digital presence immediately. While that is true, it is also a fact that you will not receive more than 5 visitors on the website on the first 5 days. Not only that, if the job is done hastily, forget customers revisiting the website ever again. This is the reason why companies invest months at a stretch maybe even years to get the website just right. Here are some of the traits of a good website development company one should keep in mind before hiring.

  1. Get to know the values and upholding of the company from references. A good web development company is professional. They set decent deadlines that are a result of the middle ground found between the client and the agency. See whether the agency meets their deadlines effectively almost every time. This shows how committed they are to their clients and company.
  2. Good agencies have a particular process they go through before starting to work on the website. They have sets of meetings with the clients where they understand the exact need of the website. Does it need to be creative, interactive or informative? Accordingly, the agency decides to create the website accommodating the required items in place.
  3. Agencies that have variety in their portfolio are the ones who can give you what you want. The variety in itself suggests that they mold their work objectives in the direction of what the client needs and can have different kinds of things that can make your website good.
  4. Good web development services are offered from companies with strong references and blogs. References give you an idea of what you must expect from the agency and blogs give an insight into the knowledge and expertise the agency has with respect to the field they are working in.
  5. Look out for an agency that offers maintenance services in case some is needed and also a content management system that is easy to handle. Note that the agencies should be the ones that make you independent after the website is built and not dependent on them for every little thing.

Hiring the best website development company gives you better results in terms of conversions, visitors, and digital presence. A brand is also judged by its website which is effectively delivered at your doorstep by WinInfoSoft Pvt. Ltd.

How To Choose A Top Rated Digital Marketing Agency

Giving the reigns of your brand and advertising to a top rated digital marketing agency seems quite easy by a single search on Google and the top result. However, companies have lost revenues, brand value, and money by selecting an agency which was not fit for their company. Before choosing a candidate fit for a job we usually have rounds of evaluation that ensures that we get the best one. And we do that to the best of our abilities. Why not do the same with digital marketing agencies?

Digital marketing agencies are outsourced with work of marketing a company on the digital platform, a job that can make or break a company. And hence it is important to go through a procedure before hiring any agency.

  1. A need assessment:
    Do a need assessment of your own requirements. Most of the agencies provide everything, from SEO, PPC to social media marketing, Adwords and more. But if you decide that you have to house employees to take care of the social media for you, then keep that specification in mind.
  2. Check out core competencies:
    Now, you have to check out websites of the agencies that are best at the other tasks under digital marketing. Usually, companies would want to highlight their strengths on their website which is a pool of information for you. If you only need branding than an agency with experience and skill in the field would be best for you and not the other SEO, PPC services they provide.
  3. Do research:
    Once you have short listed the companies that you think would be suitable for your needs, it is time to dig deeper. Do homework, go into their social media profiles, get information as much as you can. The reviews on Google and comments on their Twitter handle can tell you a lot about their services and performance. You wouldn’t want to end up with an agency that does not listen to your queries. However, separate the competitor comments from the others, meaning, track the history of the commenter too to make sure they are a credible source of information.
  4. Get references:
    Get references in the Industry, people who have worked with the agency before. Discuss with them the strength of the agency and the challenges the reference faced. Note that the objective here is not to find negatives of the agency but to understand whether the agency is fit to deliver specific requirements and nature. How they handle their clients and their needs are what defines a company.
  5. Meet the agency:
    Do not finalize on an agency before meeting them in person. This helps in 3 major things:
    – Meeting with them and the person working on your particular project helps you understand whether they would be able to pull it off or not.
    – It will build a rapport between you both where you can set expectations, in such a way that you give them space to say no if they feel a need cannot be fulfilled.
    – In case the agency is not handed with the complete digital marketing and just a few aspects, it is crucial to maintaining an effective communication system between the teams so that the objectives are aligned and worked towards together.

The last step is simple, if you had not problems by far with an agency, it is for you. Make a mental note that digital marketing agencies are not all perfect, but have their own strength and weaknesses. Do give an intensive review to the agency whenever you can, ensuring performance.

WinInfoSoft is a digital marketing agency with expertise in every digital marketing area including SEO, PPC, Adwords, Social Media etc.

Social Media Marketing is not a sprint, it’s a marathon

[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]Almost every business has anonline presence today. In the domain of social media marketing, they are seen through their websites, mailers, advertisements and social media. You like a lot of companies just because of their well curated and fresh content that they post on social media. However, there are still companies who do not have a huge fan base online but are doing quite well in their fields. Does this mean that social media marketing is not that important? Not at all. Social media marketing is one of the areas that must be allotted a healthy budget in any marketing plan.

Usually, it is seen that brands set up their Facebook, Twitter and Instagram pages with few designs and content ready. They gather followers for the next 2-3 months and keep on posting new content each day hoping that the target audience will notice and follow them online. However, after another few months, it is seen that the social media handles are not updated and not focused on. This is because brands don’t see any significant ROI from social media marketing. But here is how one can avoid getting their online presence hampered, by knowing a few things about the domain.

  1. Social media marketing should not be rushed into:
    Many startups and businesses set up their social media accounts even before their businesses are well set up. They end up gathering anaudience for something which has a 50% chance of actually being there. What is important here is to not rush into making a Facebook account. Instead, figure out your objectives and mission first, then let the world know that you are finally here.
  2. Get to know your audience:
    In the initial stages, it would be difficult for you to understand your audience which is a good platform for trial and error. See what clicks with your audience and what does not. Take those learnings that you will include in your future SM strategies.
  3. Nurture your relationship:
    Once your audience is built, your work does not end here. We must keep our relationship with people we want to do business with. And so, your online audience must be well connected to your presence at all times. Make sure the posts are not too hammering and not less to be out of mind. They must be the exact amount to make your audience feel good about their business with you.
  4. Long-term Strategies:
    Your strategies for social media should be long term based on your objectives and what you expect out of it. Example, increase in sales, the number of likes, comments shares. Your strategies must be based on what outputs you hope to achieve.
  5. It is a marathon:
    In accordance with the title, the task of social media marketing is never ending and hence is not a sprint to be covered in few years but a marathon that goes until the time your business runs. And so, giving up on social media marketing after just a few years is not an option if you want it to work.

How to protect your computer from Ransomware?

How to protect your computer from Ransomware?

The ongoing ransomware attack that started on Friday has created a worldwide vulnerability of Windows operating systems to the crypto locker. But before the virus gets to your system, here is all you need to know about this virus.

Ransomware is a malware that infects the computer system and encrypts every data file it finds on it. This particular type of computer virus is meant for extracting ransom in return of decrypting all the files on the system. The current “WannaCry” Ransomware that has affected more than 150 countries across the world including the National Health Security in Britain is said to be the biggest attack so far. Previously meant for home users, this malware has started targeting businesses over the past few years which can help the hackers extract more money.

How does this malware work?

The ransomware is a computer virus which is sent through compromised websites and emails. Once an individual receives an email from an unidentified source, it compels the reader to click on a link that automatically downloads the virus to the computer system. The virus then refuses access of the user to any of the data files and finds loopholes in the system to encrypt every data file it finds on the system. It presents a pop up asking for $300 in bitcoins. If the ransom is not paid in 3 days, the ransom is increased to $600 and the malware threatens to delete every data you have on the computer system. Once loaded on the system, it is practically impossible to remove or delete it.

Who is vulnerable to the attack?

Anyone using an operating system below Windows 10, eg. Windows 8, 7, Vista, is vulnerable to the attack.

How to prevent the attack on your system?

Prevention is better than cure. Here are some easy steps to ensure your computer system says wary of such a malware.

 

  • Apply the software patch:
    Windows was quick to release an updated patch to be applied on all the Windows operating systems that are vulnerable to the attack. Make sure you apply the patch on your system to avoid the malware to encrypt files in case it downloads on the systems. Also, enable automatic updates in case you forget to update your software as the vendors keep releasing security updates regularly. This practice will help prevent any malware threatening your system.

 

The biggest thing that can help you from becoming a victim of the attack is not providing a leverage at all. Back your data regularly and in lesser time intervals. Make sure to take the updated data backup once you make a change in any of your document. You can use this by uploading your data to the cloud or on an external USB. Note here that the malware also encrypts data from any external USB in use with the system. Make sure to keep the external drives unattached with your system when not taking backup.

  • Show hidden file extensions:
    The virus is present in specific file extensions like ‘.PDF.EXE’. Because Windows by default hides this kind of extensions, it can be difficult to get hold of these files. Get hold of a list of such extensions and ensure to not click on any such attachments. These attachments would be presented from unidentified mailers or websites. Make sure to use security firewalls that can identify such suspicious sites for you. You can easily avoid an attack by not visiting any untrusted site and deleting mailers from IDs you do not recognize. Just in case you are not able to see the extensions, enable the feature from your system or browser.
  • Filter your EXEs:
    In case your mailer gateway has a filtering system, enable the filter to corner all the file attachments with an unknown file extension that have two extensions. Channelize all such emails to trash before it poses a threat to the system.
  • Use the Cryptolocker prevention kit:
    This is a kit made by Three Tier that automates the process of making a Group Policy to disable files running from App data and Local App data folders, also disabling the running of executable files from temp directory of various unzipping utilities.
  • Disable RDP:
    The cryptolocker targets your Remote Desktop Protocol (RDP), a Windows utility that lets others access your computer remotely. Unless and until it is absolutely needed, disable the feature to avoid malware attack.

What if I suspect the malware is present on my system?

Just in case you come across a file that you suspect is Ransomware, here are the following steps you can take to make sure it does not affect all of your systems.

  • In case you find a suspicious file, unplug from the network or disable WiFi immediately. If at all it is the malware, it won’t be able to encrypt all your files and would top before completing the encryption and presenting the pop-up.
  • If the malware threatens your systems and you have the system restore enabled, there is a good chance you get to start from a clean slate on your system. However, the newer versions of cryptolocker have made it difficult to do so as it identifies shadow files on your system.
  • You will be absolutely sure that your system is under attack when the pop up specifies the time of collection. Now that you can do nothing to remove it, you can set the system clock back to make sure your 72 hours are not up. This is just a delaying strategy and does not delete the malware from your system.

Another way to deal with the affected system is to contact the customer care of your system vendor as they can have latest updates on how to tackle the malware.

We strictly advise not to pay the ransom money unless the encrypted data is absolutely necessary. Also, it has been noticed in cases where the ransom money is delivered, the data recovery has not been made as the decryption code does not run properly. Which means the decryption code is flawed and can lose the files anyway. It is better not to encourage criminal activity in such a case.
