By
utilizing the same technologies that helped to establish online
success for their clients, WSI’s own corporate website (www.wsicorporate.com)
now receives more traffic than any other franchise website in the
world.
With over a half billion hits per month traversing through its
global network, WSI, the global leader in providing Internet
Solutions to small- and medium-sized businesses is leading by
example. Through its commitment to innovation, education, and
customer satisfaction, WSI’s rapid growth has made its corporate
website one of the most frequently visited online destinations in
the franchising industry.
“It’s amazing to see just how much traffic our corporate site gets
now,” says WSI Chief Executive Officer Louis Zalany. “To say over
half a billion hits a month, it takes a minute for the scope of that
number to really sink in.” With its rapidly growing network of
Internet Consultants operating throughout the world,
wsicorporate.com acts as a centralized starting point for the
company’s franchisees, potential franchisees and customers alike.
Filled with details about WSI’s products, services and unique
methodology, the corporate site provides valuable information to
potential clients, often introducing them to WSI for the first time
and generating leads for WSI’s many franchisees. The explosive
growth of visitor traffic to the WSI site confirms what the company
has been telling its clients for years; the Internet is the single
most important communications tool of our time and business owners
the world over want to learn how to leverage its power.
Still a comparatively new player in the world of franchising, WSI
has easily surpassed one of the most successful companies in the
history of franchising, McDonald’s, in terms of global Internet
traffic. As of January 2004, WSI was ranked 5,519 sites ahead of the
industry giant according to a leading website traffic analyst. Even
more remarkable is the large margin between WSI and other top
franchises as listed by Entrepreneur magazine. WSI’s corporate site
has a commanding 14,000 site lead over fast-food franchise Subway,
and as the “Top Ten” progresses, major international brands fall
even farther behind the Internet Solutions provider.
When presented with these latest numbers, newly-appointed WSI Chief
Operating Officer Ron McArthur chose to focus instead on what is yet
to come. “As we continue to develop as a company, our global traffic
and thereby our international brand exposure will increase,” states
McArthur. “Passing half a billion hits per month is a great
accomplishment, but we’ll be all the happier when we grow to surpass
a billion hits each month, and beyond. Our goal is to continue to
work hard in order to remain the leading brand in Internet
Consulting and to provide our clients with the opportunity to be
amongst the leaders in their respective fields.”
By
already surpassing franchise industry giants, WSI has shown that a
combination of innovative technology and proven business systems can
accelerate any business into a position of advantage. With this
knowledge at hand, WSI’s international network of Internet
Consultants will continue to teach small-to mid-size businesses how
to compete with, and even surpass, their large scale competition in
the online marketplace.
