Why choose Internet Marketing ?

There are many advantages to Internet Marketing. Here are just a few.

1. Improve Current Marketing. It can improve conventional advertising. As a tool any business can add a URL to a business card or an advertisement in the paper. Your URL being www.dininglongisland.com/yourbusiness.htm or simply www.yourbusiness.com is slightly longer than a phone number. This address provides anyone with a very elaborate online brochure for your business. Your website that contains information including reviews, menus, prices, maps, pictures of your dining facility, etc. This brochure can be viewed at the press of a button.

2. Easily Update Menus/Schedules/Specials. Are your menus changing every season, month, week? Send it to your customers via email. Simply fax or notify us and we will make the changes immediately or whenever you want them to take place. We can even provide your customers with both sets of menus temporarily until the changes take place. We can have a price change done before you get your new menus. You may want to change the look of your site from winter to summer. Make it look like a winter wonderland and then a summer resort ..... Simple.

3. Easy Access. Your business brochure can be viewed, sent and printed by anyone, anytime. Potential customers traveling Long Island's wine country, beaches, aberetums, preserves, museums, or to take in a show can take a look at your menus, schedules and the restaurant itself. That person can even print a map giving them directions to your restaurant.

Someone ever get lost using directions received over the phone? Printing a map could be a click away.

This is not a magazine or a paper and therefore does not have to be distributed to be viewed.

Why choose dininglongisland.com ?

1. Price. The greatest reason we believe is the cost. We are very reasonably priced. Our average site runs at $30 a month. We first decided to concentrate on restaurants and caterers because we felt these restaurant sites were too expensive. We observed more than one restaurant with a $500-$700/year website. These sites weren't even getting their menus updated when necessary. If they had entertainment we were viewing schedules over a year old. Your site must be kept fresh, up to date. Only then will potential customers continue to view it. (view a price list here)

2. Reliability. We believe our success is totally dependent on your success on the internet. We therefore take our customers very seriously. Everyone is an individual. Every business is run a little different. When we hear from a customer we tend to that customers needs ASAP. Our existing customers are much more valuable to us than our potential customers. Since we don't have a sales staff yet building our clientele has been an uphill climb. But we are happy to say our existing customers are very satisfied.

3. Marketing Tactics. We have created a mailing list. Once a month we remind anyone on our mailing list of our site at www.dininglongisland.com. We also include direct links to restaurants with special menus at the time. Our success on the top search engines has so far contributed. We continue to research and update our search engine links. We believe the size of the web and these successful sites are due to there broadness. We believe that broadness handicaps them in many ways. We are not only dedicated to Long Island but to the food industry with our marketing strategies. We are the only dining site anywhere use these tactics. We feel this is going to be the key to our success.
