In todays market place reviews are one of the biggest closing aspects of many sales. Buying decisions are often made after reading product or service reviews on line. Reviews from sites such as Google or Yelp are the most beleivable since they are posted un biastly.

Managing your online reputation is often a missed opportunity for many businesses that is where Cybernet steps in to help you out. When you speak to one of our friendly experts ask them about our Reviews program.

There are hundreds of websites that list business information including, what is called in the industry NAP - name, address, phone. Many of these listings are lifted from Google business listings while others may post information garnered from different locations. An important part of SEO (search engine optimization) is to make sure your NAP listing is the same everywhere. Ask us about the Cybernet listing service, it is included in most plands and will ensure that your NAP is correct, optimized and the same everywhere across the internet.  

The ADA is the Americans with Disabilities Act, and compliance for websites is generally referred to as satisfying the requirements of the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines. Read the article below for more information, recently written by a coproate attorney.

WEBSITE LAWSUITS: CLAIMS BY VISUALLY IMPAIRED OR HEARING IMPAIRED PERSONS

Class Action Lawyers who Sue your Company for Millions, but May Settle for Far Less.

In the last six months, we have seen numerous federal court lawsuits[i] against small companies[ii] where the plaintiffs allege that the company’s website is not fully accessible to the named plaintiff and/or other visually impaired persons or hearing-impaired persons, and therefore violates the US Americans with Disabilities Act (“ADA”). More specifically, they allege that the website does not satisfy the requirements of a standard known as the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (“WCAG”) 2.1 Level AA.[iii]

First, the bad news: (1) because there are so many sight impaired and hearing impaired people, these cases can be brought as class actions, which can give rise to considerable legal fees and very sizeable judgments; (2) many website developers seem to not follow the WCAG 2.1 Level AA standard for their website customers; and (3) hiring a lawyer to defend or even just settle the case can cost a company far more than $10,000 in legal fees and related expenses.

The good news is that these cases can often be settled for relatively small amounts, if approached properly.

When a complaint is filed in federal court, the company will receive more than a few solicitations from law firms that have expertise in the application of the ADA law to these situations. However, the legal fees and other costs involved in defending such a potential federal class action could be enormous[iv]…and even just negotiating a quick settlement can cost legal fees far in excess of $10,000, in addition to any settlement amount paid to the plaintiff.

The good news is that, due to our recent experience with such claims, our firm has developed an approach that can save a company a substantial amount of money. In the unfortunate event that a claim is filed against your company we can, hopefully, help you bring it to a swift and less expensive resolution.

We can also counsel firms that have not yet been sued, on how to upgrade the website to the WCAG standard that will help prevent such claims.

Conclusion

If you or your client has a business website, there is a substantial chance that you will be named as a class-action defendant in an ADA claim sometime soon, if that has not happened already. If you wish to manage this risk, please reach out to Richard Waxman at

First we will need to do a little math!

Start with the amount of money you want to make in one year - e.g.$100,000

Now calculate the average profit you make from a new customer e.g.$1000 (obviously repeat customers will increase this when you consider the LTV [life time value] that the customer brings)

So in the above scenario you need 100 customers or 8.33 per month or 2.08 per week, lets round up to 3 for simple math.

Suppose you close 50% of all customers that you speak t o on the phone, this means you need to speak to 6 people per week.

lets assume that for every 10 interested customers that land on your web site, one will call you, so you need 60 interested customers per week - about 10 per day - to land on your site.

Now we have a formula and a plan. What would you be willing to spend to get that $100,000?

Web hosting is much like renting space to live, like an aprtment or a room in a hotel.
