Marketing online requires you as a webmaster to first get visitors to your site and secondly to make the sale on your site. The most important way to get visitors to your site is through search engines. It can be quite expensive to submit to search engines or too time consuming to do it on your own as there are hundreds of them out there. There are however sites such as TrafficDestination.com, www.trafficdestination.com, that offer free search engine submission to hundreds of search engines and directories. And there is no difference between such a service and a pay service.

Once the visitor is at your site it is very hard for unknown sites to compete with the big and well established companies. The primary way a website can achieve that is through Trust Seals also know as Seal of Approval or Consumer Trust Seal. These Seals can be obtained through organizations such as IBCIM.ORG, www.ibcim.org, where you can quite easily become a member at a very low cost or no cost at all with free trial memberships.

Online fraud is the main concern for consumers on the internet and in particular when they visit smaller and unknown sites. The primary benefit though of a Trust Seal is to increase sales conversions and build consumer trust in real time through the verification page that is associated with the Seals.

Marketing a website requires you to instill confidence in your customer in order to gain their trust. A trusting visitor is more likely to make a purchase and refer your sites to other consumers. Fraud is rampant online and people require some level of security to assure that they are not entering into a questionable situation and risking their hard earned money.

One method which has been tried and tested time and time again is the use of trust seals, also known as Seal of Approval. Online merchants can increase sales conversions and build consumer trust by simply displaying a certified Trust Seal on their websites.

There are plenty of organizations out there that offer all kinds of certifications. Most of them are however very expensive or they only certify security of transactions or verify actual incorporation. In other words for most home based or new businesses there are not a lot of certification options out there. Now there is a service out there though that focuses on giving a Seal of Approval to websites based on a good service history and other qualifications geared to the home based internet business rather than the large corporation.

An example of this type of certification is IBCIM.ORG, The International Bureau of Certified Internet Merchants, www.ibcim.org. IBCIM.ORG operates the Merchant Certified Seal of Approval program where websites from any country or industry can obtain a Trust Seal. The Seal is linked to an Instant Verification Page which any visitor can instantly go and verify the status and credibility of the website. A Trust Seal is widely accepted as the best and most established way for websites to prove their status as a legitimate merchant.

To obtain or learn more about trust seals visit www.ibcim.org.
