Activity Details

Perform the following tasks:

Step 1: Read the Message Strategies: Marketing and Sales Messages assignment scenario located in the attached assignment scenario document.

Step 2: Locate a website for any company that sells products to consumers and write a new title for the site’s homepage (the title that appears at the top of a web browser).

  • Make the title short enough to read quickly while still summarizing what the company offers. Be sure to use one or more keywords that online shoppers would likely use when searching for the types of products the company sells.
  • Next, identify three high-quality websites that would be good ones to link to the site you chose. For instance, if you chose a website that sells automotive parts and supplies, one of the three linking sites could be a popular blog that deals with automotive repair. Or if the site you chose sells golf equipment, you might find a sports website that covers the professional golf tours or one that provides information about golf courses around the world.

Step 3: Write a short (3-4 sentences) explanation as to why you chose to rewrite the title as you did and explaining why you chose to link to the sites you chose.
