Web traffic is generated in two ways: search engine optimization (SEO) and pay per click (PPC or Search Marketing). Success in business requires choosing one. Or does it?

Digital marketing is not one size fits all. Your strategy depends on your business, market and goals. An integrated approach is the perfect mix to accomplish your goals and capture leads online.

Do SEO And PPC Make Good Partners?

Usually.

You can balance SEO and PPC to make them work synergistically, negating their respective downsides. For example, you can apply the keyword and conversion data from your PPC campaign to your SEO strategy, or you can use both strategies to target your audience at every point of the customer journey.

An integrated strategy can optimize both PPC and SEO to increase visibility, drive traffic and provide an overall better experience. It could be the exact digital marketing game plan your business needs.

As a business one of your key goals is to make it easier for your customers to find you when they are looking for your product or service. We have outlined some of the basics of SEO to give your website the best chance to place organically with Google. Believe it or not millions of websites are built with little or no search engine optimization and without many of the basics I’ve outlined below.

RESPONSIVE DESIGN

That’s right Google favors websites that use responsive design and who are we to argue with Google?

WEBSITE SPEED

Page speed is a measurement of how fast the content on your page loads. The speed of your mobile site is a much more important signal now that Google is indexing mobile 1st.

KEYWORDS

The choice of keywords you target on your website is one of the major steps in the implementation of a successful SEO strategy. Try to focus keywords that matter the most while providing your reader with quality and useful content.

HIGH QUALITY, OPTIMIZED CONTENT

The choice of keywords you target on your website is one of the major steps in the implementation of a successful SEO strategy. Try to focus keywords that matter the most while providing your reader with quality and useful content.

UX & TECHNICAL SEO

This includes the overall experience from the initial interaction in the SERPs, to the landing page experience, and even the experience after they leave your site. Think about how you can help your users have the best possible experience while and what value you can provide to them during their visit.

There are 4.39 billion internet users, with the worldwide total growing by 10%-15% each year. Thanks to the Internet, we are no longer separated by physical boundaries — our world is a “global world”. People across the globe can connect with one another. Every day, about 15% of all Google searches are brand new. Everything you want can reach your doorstep. All you have to do is go online, search for the product or service you want, and with a few clicks, it’s yours! Even the business and marketing world has shifted online.

Given that billions of people are practically living on the Internet, businesses can no longer afford to overlook online marketing, affectionetly known these days as Digital Marketing.

Why is Digital Marketing Important?

1. It provides increased visibility. 2. It drives qualified traffic to your website. 3. It helps level the competitive field. 4. It helps generate sales revenue. 5. Its cost-effective compared to print.

What is AdWords?

Google AdWords is an online advertising service paid business model designed by Google. It allows marketers/advertisers to bid on specific keywords so that their clickable ads can appear in front of the organic Google’s search results. AdWords lets you set an advertising budget for your online marketing efforts, and you only have to pay when people click on your ads.

Is SEO better than AdWords? 

When it comes to online marketing, both SEO and Google AdWords are critical tools for creating effective digital marketing campaigns. Both have unique advantages and disadvantages. SEO (Search Engine Optimization) is free, whereas Google AdWords requires you to pay-per-click to get traffic.  The biggest advantage of AdWords is that it can help generate quality tangible results much faster than SEO.

Both SEO and AdWords are essential for devising and implementing a successful digital marketing strategy. Since both target web traffic in their own unique ways, you must leverage both to ensure long-term success.

There’s no substitute for top-notch, targeted content when it comes to driving website traffic.  Research shows that longer and informative copy leads to higher Google rankings, while sites with video content are 50 times more likely to boost traffic. And did you know that 97% of Page One Google results include at least one image?

With this in mind, it’s crucial to ensure your website chooses the correct type of content — whether it be graphics, a blog, charts, or videos — to suit the needs of your intended users. This will help generate traffic, while strengthening its credibility and relevance.

In August Google updated yet another alogorithm. The lastest Google Algorithm update stresses the importance of NEW fresh RELEVENT content. Now is the time to make sure you are producing quality website content.

Google has changed dramatically since the “beta” version was launched back in January 1996. And many of the best practices for optimizing your website content have changed significantly, too. So, how do you optimize your website content for Google visibility and traffic today?

1. Conduct Keyword Research to Find Search Terms People Are Likely to Use

Well, the first step in Google News optimization is conducting keyword research to find 85% of the news search terms that people are likely to use. How do you do that?

2. Write a Clear, Concise Headline

Despite getting revamped, Google News continues to rely heavily on page titles to determine ranking.

3. Use Subheads & Text Formatting for Emphasis

What about subheads? Well, they’re a good place to incorporate additional keywords that aren’t in your headline.

They also provide early supplemental guidance to readers as they decide whether to continue reading longer news content.

4. Question the Conventional Wisdom That Says: Keep It Short

Now, I’m often asked, “How long should optimized news content be?”

But, there is no simple formula for calculating how long your article or release should be in order to be optimized for Google News.

But, it’s time to question the conventional wisdom that says: Keep it short.

5. Include Photos & Videos

Although rich textual content is important, so are photos and videos.

Google News displays images associated with articles included in its index, although it sometimes pairs relevant images with articles from different sources.

6. Add Meaningful Links

It’s okay to use links in your story or release to direct your audiences to relevant additional content.

This includes:

  • Sidebars and photo galleries for readers.
  • Campaign-specific landing pages and product purchase pages for customers.

I should remind you that Google is constantly changing. This year Google updated algorithms 3,200 times.

So, I should probably add a “Best if used by (or before)” date to some of the tips in this article.

Google continues to make changes, you should continue to invest in improving your web site, do not let your website sit idle.

Why should you care?  If anything is true in SEO (Search Engine Optimization), it is that we can always expect change. Google has made many changes to its algorithms over the years and continues to release algorithmic updates to improve usability and improve relevancy. You cannot just sit idle and expect rankings today will be the same tomorrow. As Google continues to make changes, your web site must continue to improve to gain and maintain rankings in Google search.

Google made over 3,200 changes to its search system last year alone. Google wrote, “Our search algorithms are complex math equations that rely on hundreds of variables, and last year alone, we made more than 3,200 changes to our search systems.”

3,200 changes! Yes, Google has for a while said it makes, on average, several changes to search per day, and 3,200 changes per year would be about several per day. So what have you done today to increase your visibility online?

For years, people in this industry debated the merits of paid search advertising (PPC, Pay-Per-Click) versus organic search marketing (SEO, Search Engine Optimization).

Which was better?

Which one should you put your resources into?

Honestly, I thought we’d settled this argument a long time ago:

You need both! Duh!

But recently, the topic came up again amongst some of my clients.

I can see why. If you weren’t part of the original discussion, this conclusion might not seem so obvious.

Therefore, allow me to use this article to express a few forgotten truths in the SEO versus PPC debate.

1. Paid Search Can’t Replace Organic (& Vice Versa)

2. Neither SEO nor PPC Is Free

3. It’s Not a Zero-Sum Game

4. Statistics Can Be Deceiving

5. Look Beyond Traffic to Leads & Conversions

SEO or PPC? Choose Both!

When people ask whether they should choose SEO or PPC, make the argument that they shouldn’t make a choice at all.

Because neither is a substitute for the other.

And when you harness them together, you get the best of both.
