BEING IN THE RIGHT TIME AT THE RIGHT PLACE with COSTARICACLOSEUP

Imagine someone telling you that it can’t be done! Well that was the winter of 2010 when Tee and AJ were told by one
of their Costa Rica web clients that generation of Massive Traffic into Costa Rica from North America was impossible, since the client’s staff had been at it for years without results. Taking Tee’s editorial and writing skills and AJ’s web traffic strategies as CTO of one of North America’s market dominating mobile marketing companies, they acted on this challenge and the testbed website and social media properties of CostaRicaCLOSEUP.com were born!
6months later, the website that started out as CostaRicaCLOSEUP and that since morphed itself into
multiple subsites, gaining a sister site in NBC’s LoveInTheWildFansMag, broke everyone of that original client’s traffic records, being proof that Tee & AJ’s digital strategies worked. Along this journey, the outgoing one “Tee” and the techy “AJ” developed a Costa Rican derivative site for North America based on the NBC adventure dating
reality show shot in Costa Rica during the spring of 2011. This sister site www.LoveInTheWildFansMag.com came to be a primary site for the series, was featured in Wikipedia and was #2 in social networks to NBC’s own properties. The pair received praise for their work with NBC in developing unique online content in support of the series.
Just like the shot of Jaco Beach backlit behind that day’s surfers, being at the Right Place at the Right
Time is crucial to your business succeeding in this ever competitive environment. Partnering with Costa Rica CLOSEUP’s success and its development as the #1 inbound Costa Rica traffic site is Your Business Being in the Right Place at the Right Time - this is where your customers will be looking for information on Costa Rica and on your business for the 2011-2012 season - if you’re not there your competition will be! So come join in the digital marketing machine that is causing noise throughout Costa Rica as the strongest inbound digital traffic generator in the country!

Matching Your Markets
The most important consideration in digital marketing is whether the digital assets you intend to use match your target market profile - their age, sex, location, etc. This is where CostaRicaCLOSEUP.com excels - it’s Demographics are in the sweet spot of most targets - almost equally weighted Male and Female, and particularly crucial, with age bands predominantly in the 25-55+ categories with spending power.
Riding the Fastest Horse
An ALEXA ranking seeks to order the world’s websites into those with the most traffic, as for example Google has an Alexa of 1 - the world’s most popular website in terms of traffic and visits. CostaRicaCLOSEUP.com Alexa rank is less than 500,000, which puts it as one of the most popular websites in the world, and especially for Costa Rica related traffic. Of notable interest, CostaRicaCLOSEUP achieved this fantastic Alexa rank within its first six months, where many sites work years and years to get anywhere close to such a ranking.
As to why the site ranks so well, as can be seen from the Cloudflare report, is that the site receives almost a million page views per month! These pageviews are almost equally between visitors and search engine crawlers - each are equally important as the crawlers continually update their index of CostaRicaCLOSEUP’s
content, which means that this site is regarded as having content that is worthwhile to index and to index fast! Some sites only get indexed on a monthly or even less basis, but not CostaRicaCLOSEUP - so that any content related to your business will be searchable and found by search engine users quickly!
Is 800,000 Enough?
The Top Queries graph shows that the site is ranked in Google for over 10,000 keyword and phrases. This means that the site (and by extension your Ads and Content) will be shown to everyone that is looking far and wide for Costa Rica related information using thousands of Costa Rica related search terms. This increases the likelihood of being found, viewed and action taken on your Ads and Content.
Of course having a lot of search terms means nothing if these terms aren’t shown to anyone, so take a look at how many impressions Google shows for the site’s search term Queries - over 800,000 impressions per month!
Social Medial Multiplication
Google is not the only search engine from which CostaRicaCLOSEUP generates its traffic - FACEBOOK, TWITTER, YOUTUBE, LINKEDIN, and GOOGLE+ and their search functions all direct traffic to the site. Every one of these social networks has a CostaRicaCLOSEUP presence
some with updated feeds from the sites that effectively multiply the effect of Content that gets distributed to more and more eyeballs with resulting traffic. Together these social networks are just as important as Google where Facebook now gets more internal searches than Google and YouTube is ranked as the #3 visited search site!
What’s Coming
From what was at one time a single CostaRicaCLOSEUP site there developed a number of subsites - the first was Surf In Costa Rica, and the next Costa Rica Real Estate - there is a continued site development and rollout planned for the 2011 - 2012 season. While we won’t provide specifics as of yet, let’s just say it will include mapping, videos, graphic regions, and more! From a practical perspective this means that your Ad and Content will be part of an every growing and powerful entity - a favourite of search engines and visitors alike! ... but to give you a sample of what’s to come, remember we did NBC’s Love In The Wild unofficial fans website and worked with NBC to publicize the contestants and series, so ... there’s more of that coming and as they say in the media business, “stayed tuned”!!!
