Rather than give up without a fight, Anheuser Busch has decided to revamp their Bud.TV Web site with a number of changes to give it another chance to succeed. I think this is an appeal from their pride, as Anheuser has always been known as one of the most innovative advertisers in the business. It's a good sign to see them try to make this work. The company originally had a goal of attracting between 3 to 5 million visitors a month. The traffic was so low in May it didn't even meet the requirements of measurability, said comScore. Whether or not these changes will work for Bud.TV remains to be seen, because of how it is thought of now by consumers, but they are good guidelines for online marketers to learn from. Here are the 9 Changes they're making:
1. They will make it edgier
For the brand that it represents, the site was far too tame for the tastes of those visiting it. The company has this as one of the key elements to quickly move on. For any of us in marketing, we need to know the "edge" factor in what we're offering. The bottom line here is how edgy is our demographic. The answer determines the degree we offer in our content.
2. Social-networking component (community)
When you think of beer again, and the connection to hanging out with friends, it is essential for the company to incorporate online community opportunities for site visitors. People have a certain mentality when thinking of hanging around and drinking, the company must bring that 'feel' to the site. We also must think of our demographic again and what it is they do and think. Offering people ways to connect is crucial.  3. Shorter Videos
Most of the videos on the Bud.TV site were in the 6-minute range. While that would probably be okay for an occasional, special video; as a pattern it would stink. Most people don't want to have a 6-minute video be the only option available to them. The company is responding by going with much shorter videos.
