domestic visitors but also some foreign guests too.
Online Presence
The main group websites are –

The main problem with these sites is that they’re not very visible to the target audience on search
engines namely Google, Bing and Yahoo. These are potential customers actively seeking out hotels
such as Rose Valley but because these sites are not optimised, they are not a consideration for the
searcher. In most cases, search with related keywords like – ‘Mandarmani Resort’ and it will show
the competitor sites on the top of the search results. Secondly, there are also certain non-desirable

Under Standing of Marketing Strategy
Rose Valley spends a significant amount of money for marketing the group through traditional TV &
print media. However it is time to evaluate if there is any other option available for better ROI and
Branding. Nowadays young affluent people are using internet for finding information and
convenience for their decision making process. We feel it is a right time that the corporate identity
and communication strategy should be empowered with a strong online strategy to capture the
attention of the growing online user base. Online channels are the most suitable media form for
customer acquisition in the sectors Rose Valley is operating in now.

15. ECelticSEO - Rise Above The Rest
Why is the user on your website?
The design or redesign of any website should start with an analysis of existing and prospective
users. A key aspect to consider is why the user has chosen to visit the website on that occasion –
referred to as a site visit goal.
This report considers users who are on a website for one of the following two reasons:
• to gather information – looking for information such as hotel amenities, or the rates and room
availability on a known stay date etc. in order to eventually make a reservation (comparison
shopping)
• to make a reservation
There are other reasons for visiting a website – for example to make a customer service enquiry,
to cancel or modify a reservation, to check the level of a users loyalty card points – but this
report addresses the user goals of information-gathering and reservation-making.
What is a booking process?
A booking process determines how the user navigates through a series of sequential phases in an
online hotel reservation.
For example, a user may:
1. Enter required city and stay-date
2. Review options from available hotels, rooms, and rates
3. Select a suitable hotel, room, and rate
4. Enter guest and payment details
5. Confirm reservation

Enter occupancy and number of rooms at the start
Insurance Portal
For the insurance arm of Rose Valley a new online lead generation portal could be designed and
developed for new customer acquisition. This is one of the latest trend in the industry as you can see
from the website for all the insurance companies as well as the intermediaries like –

a look at the ads, you would then be charged when any interested party clicks on them.
The figure below shows how a banner advertising system works. In this example, a company
creates and submits a small banner ad to a banner advertising network and selects location,
time and category as the ad promotion criteria. The banner advertising network submits
these ads to multiple web sites that have agreed to be part of the banner advertising
network and keeps track of the transmission, selection and response to these ads. The web
site system operators insert the banner ads on their web pages in specific locations.

6. Why Online Marketing is taking Over Other Media
Traditional Print, Radio and TV media is very good for ‘Local’ branding and has its own merits. The
only issue with this traditional form of marketing is there is no direct measure available for return of
investment. Also someone needs to pay a premium price or investment in putting their ads in these
places
If we take an example of Print Magazine –
Print Media
Anandabazar Patrika
Circulation
Print Circulation - weekdays: 1,120,420
Print circulation – Sunday: 1,627,062
Cost
Anandabazar Patrika Full Page Ad – 25 lakhs per day and more for whole West Bengal
Sananda
Circulation
Monthly Circulation: 30,000
Mostly women subscriber
Cost
Sananda Magazine Full Page Ad – 1 lakh
Times of India
Average paid Sunday circulation is 10,19,388 and Monday - Friday circulation is 7,23,181
TV Channels
Star Ananda
Average No of Viewers: 430,00,000
TV ad production cost – 4 to 6 Lakhs
Depending on the time and program the cost varies. Star Ananda charges Rs 4000 per 10 second
each time the ads are showing on the TV. General Ad lengths are 20 -30 seconds and the ads needs
to be showed various times during the day/month. In general you need to give 5
Proposal for an Online Marketing Strategy | Rose Valley | Confidential | 09.05.2011 |Page 30 of 48
31. ECelticSEO - Rise Above The Rest
Even with all this cost you are never sure how many readers/viewers is actually becoming your
customer.
Why Web Marketing Is Better than Print Media?
Ads are interactive
In the same place, you can place multiple ads with different caption, colour, image for
different user group
You can update the ads immediately with user input
Your company displayed 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 12 months a year in any part of the
World. While in newspaper your ad will be gone next day
Online media is going to overcome print media (http://www.pwc.com/gx/en/press-

Internet user’s statistics
In India now there are almost 100 million users

7. Estimated Budget and Mile Stones
Web Marketing & Search Engine Optimisation takes time to show its result. We usually execute
plans of six months with monthly progress meeting where we show the improvement from the
initial bench mark phase. In General there is not much difference noticed in the first couple of
months but from the third month, we can see steady improvement.
We propose that Rose Valley Group might need to spend at least 25 % of their total marketing
budget online. Following activities should be carried out –
Development exiting sites( Rose valley Group site, Hotel & Resorts and Travel is our
first preference than client request we will start work on other sectors)
PPC campaign of Rs 1,00,000 every month for hotel, resort and travel.
Banner and Rich Media ads of Rs 1,00,000 per month.
Reputation Management, SEO & Social Media - Rs 1,50,000 Per month
Developing mini sites & improving existing sites – this will vary case to case basis
The above figures are ball park estimates for the whole group activities. It could be modified
depending on the budget Rose Valley wants to allocate in different areas. Higher budget will bring
better result and more customer acquisition.
Detail monthly goals will be set after initial discussion with the management and before starting the
project. The following would be done within first six months –
In general 10% increase in monthly visitor volume from 2nd month. Ongoing
visitor increase rate in general will be 3% – 5% per month from then on.
20,000 – 25,000 followers in social networks after first six months
Removing most of the existing non favourable remarks from coming in the first
page of Google search
New good remarks would be coming up in the first couple of pages when some
search with Rose Valley
Ranking in the first page of Google and other search engines with the agreed
keywords
Increase in hotel booking ( would be decided in initial goal setting meeting)

8. Our Project Management and Execution Approach
Operations Process Overview
We understand the needs of Rose Valley from working with similar high profile clients in previous
projects and know the best practices that Rose Valley expects in operation, consistency of delivery,
and support. So throughout our project execution we will have the operational objectives of:
• On-time project completion
• Meeting our targets per month
• Increase target visitors and their business by converting visitors to customers.
Project Planning and Management
While a project is being executed, eCeltic follows a set of documentation, project development
methodology and testing techniques. We utilize different tools and utilities to produce the
documentation like HTML help, Visio and different utilities of MS-Office. We use e-Collab to
enumerate the work breakdown structure, for resource allocation, for milestone-based project
scheduling, collaboration and progress tracking.
Monthly reports of the project will be provided, which will give details of each and every aspect of
the project. However, any problems or issues will be communicated directly by the project manager
to the Halpern Cowan contact person and not left until the monthly report is published.
Please see our online collaboration tool given below for more detail.
Detailed Analysis & Project Benchmarking
This involves the study of project requirements. Documented inputs provided by the client and
technical resources collected during project estimation phase are passed on to the project team. The
project manager’s understanding is transferred to the project team through a series of knowledge
transfer meetings.
