Yahoo!Xtra and Zeald reveal secrets of website success

In a move to empower businesses with the secrets behind successful websites, Yahoo!Xtra will be joining leading web design company Zeald in a series of free seminars.

The first of the events will be held in Auckland on 22nd September, with Wellington and Christchurch to follow on 6th and 22nd October respectively.

Zeald first started their seminar programme in October 2005 with the aim of helping small to medium size businesses achieve a significant result from their online presence. Since then nearly 7,000 people have attended the 167 events held nationwide.

The free seminars are a part of Zeald's “give to receive” marketing philosophy and have been rapidly gaining popularity – most recently attracting the Yahoo!Xtra partnership.

Chief Executive David Kelly believes that Yahoo!Xtra involvement will add an extra dimension to the information presented at the events.

“Yahoo!Xtra have run thousands of online campaigns and will tap into this extensive experience to educate businesses on how to plan, buy and measure online campaigns and drive more visitors to their website.

“And Zeald will share the knowledge we have gained from nine years of research and experience on how to create a highly persuasive website that will influence visitors to take action.

“It's vital for businesses to realise that over 80% of New Zealanders are now online. The free seminars will provide insights on how to reach them more effectively and make ongoing improvements to their business results.”
