FREE INTERNET RESULTS AUDIT

Your input is the very core foundation on which successful Websites are built at OT. This free Internet results audit is used as a starting point in our process of moving your business forward in new directions. The following questions are designed to help us understand where you are now, to better understand and identify your overall Internet goals and in what directions you want to go in the future. We will ask you specific questions about your site that relate to the audience you are targeting, the overall message you are trying to convey, your current site content, overall site look and feel, and any special functionality your current site has. We will then evaluate your site using your information and our proven formula for success online.

Each question you answer should be thorough but brief and clear. Be sure to add any additional notes or comments at the end of the results audit. Once you have completed this phase of the audit, we will review your existing site based on our proven 20 points of success, compile all of your information and contact you with our findings, suggestions and recommendations.
