One look at our client list shows that Connors Communications is at the forefront of PR in the field of emerging technologies. The technology industry is reaching out beyond the Internet Bubble as the market gains new life and takes tech to the next level. Very few PR firms are truly prepared for the changes the Internet has made in communication. There are over two million online blogs that are fast becoming a formidable influence on opinions and
'buzz.' Few businesses have reached out to understand and utilize this new information medium. The internet is a vital means of reaching an audience and Connors Communications clearly understands this.
At Connors Communications, visibility on the internet is an "artful science" involving online search optimization, web design and placement strategy. It involves taking the components of successful online outreach and fitting it all together for the big picture. SEO companies advertising on the internet these days are touting fast results from keyword meta-tags. Online searchers are becoming more and more discerning in what they are looking for and it requires more than a tagged phrase to equal online success. There is a careful mixing of web presentation and directory placement. It is only natural that web image is within the realm of PR because it is often the first image of your company seen by perspective consumers and reporters. Research on your company will most likely start at your website if it is easily accessible, and that gives your company the first word in any discussion, offering great advantages.
Here at Connors, our knowledge of the internet and technology sector has led to helping quite a few companies gain success on the internet. Not only is there a breadth of experience and understanding of technology trends, there is also a horizontal knowledge. We have had clients in online retail, broadband, and technology licensing. We have had a hand in companies from so many different areas of technology that we have a unique perspective in how all these trends interweave. There is a joy that comes from watching a start-up take-off. It is absolutely incredible to be able to see how a company is able to grow from such small beginnings and really offer the industry something they have never seen before. There is an added challenge in this due to the need to acclimate an audience to the product's uses and possibilities, but it is so rewarding when this idea finally catches on and a customer base is formed. There is such a sense of pride when we can make a difference in a brand and this is what we strive to do for each and every one of our clients.
Few companies are prepared for the full extent to which the internet can be utilized. In it lies to possibility of controlling online dialog and gaining quite a large influence in a particular discussion. However, this desire to direct your content can also backfire. There is the chance of negative feedback and we need to also be considering the repercussions of online discussion and what will be required for online crisis management. At Connors we are actively considering all these aspects of online PR and its future. We realize how pervasive the internet has become in our lives and the need to use it to best advantage for our clients.
