The Importance of Keyword Research on your SEO or PPC Internet Marketing Campaigns

When you get ready to actively market your business online more than likely your first stop will be with search engine optimization (SEO).  The most important ingredient to search engine optimization will be properly conducted keyword research for your website. Keyword research alone could make or break your online game.

If not done properly you could be missing out on very valuable keywords. If you do not take your time you could put keywords on pages that don't belong or target keyword in your pay per click campaign that do nothing but produce clicks and burn through your marketing and advertising budget. When conducting keyword research there are some things you should be looking out for.

What Niche do you want to be In? You will have to find out what type of group you want to be visible to and get inside their shoes in order to figure out what types of keywords will fit best on your website. Really find out and isolate what type of products you are servicing and find all the niche keywords and phrases that revolve around that niche. Don't always worry about targeting all the high volume keywords because they receive the most traffic. Long tail keyword phrases often times convert the best when it comes to SEO and PPC. The long tail phrases are usually conducted by web users who know exactly what they are looking for.

Budget: Budget meaning how much of a marketing budget do you have to go after competitive keywords? If you are a one person company starting out you will need to bring some heavy ammo to go after the same keywords that your competition that might have been around for 5-10 years and is established is going after. It is important to not only target the very competitive keywords but also the keywords that have medium amounts of traffic and also low. You have to remember that SEO is long term and you won't be visible over night, but SEO could bring better results and it creates an asset over your website (because it could keep building up without having to spend money per every click)

Competition: Take a long hard look at your competition to see what it is that they are targeting. It is always important to take a look at what your competitors are targeting for keywords on their website when you starting conducting your keyword research. You know what they say; the best offense is a good defense. It is always important to know what types of keywords your competition is going after so you can gauge just how much of an effort you will need to put out there in order get into the same area.

Here at Destiny Technologies we include KEYWORD RESEARCH in all our SEO packages, Contact us if you have any questions about this.

IMPROVE YOUR SEO CAMPAIGN - TIP # 2 - (YOUTUBE PROFILE)

Here you have another recommendation for improving your SEO CAMPAIGN...

  Profiles:

To be able to create a youtube profile you need a video first.  so if you already have a video you created for the company you can ask the people who did the video for you to send it to you in digital format to upload to youtube. Then you go to www.youtube.com and create your new profile. Upload the video and then in your profile information can put text explaining what you do with a link to your website. Then you can also include this video inside your website with a link to this same youtube profile.

If you do not have a video, we have a good example from a customer who took pictures from a project and then created a video with their own computer just making a slideshow of the project using the pictures. You can do that too, most computers have the ability to do it... and then upload it to youtube.

This will create new inlinks to your website and improve your internet marketing campaign.

IMPROVE YOUR SEO CAMPAIGN - TIP #1 - (LINKEDIN PROFILES)

As part of our SEO campaigns we are always looking for new and different ways to put your name out there...  this is going to be a series of tips you can use to make your WEB PRESENCE grow.

 

Linkedin is a professional's social network. Linkedin is not linked to a company but to a person, so you need to provide some personal/professional  information from you for the main people in your company to be able to do this kind of profile...  It will be named after your personal name and then have information about your company website, etc.  We recommend to include your website address, and a litle blurb of what you do. In the future you can even use this tool to connect with other professionals online.

We recomend doing this for the 3 or 4 key people in your company. Ussually these profiles require this information from yo:

  • First name
  • Last name
  • Date of birth
  • Place of birth
  • City were you live now
  • Education
  • Business name
  • Your place in the company: CEO, manager, etc...
  • And  a picture if possible to put in the profile...

Internet Marketing (SEO-SEM-Adwords)

Internet Marketing
  • Search Engine Optimization (SEO).
  • Social Media Optimization (SMO).
  • Organic Positioning.
  • Viral Online marketing.
  • Google Adwords: Marketing campaigns just a click away.
  • Traffic Analysis and Website Optimization.
As an Internet marketing strategy, Search Engine Optimization (SEO) considers how search engines work and what people search for. Optimizing a website primarily involves editing its content and HTML coding to both increase its relevance to specific keywords and to remove barriers to the indexing activities of search engines.

Social media optimization (SMO) is a set of methods for generating publicity through social media, online communities and community websites. Methods of SMO include adding RSS feeds, social news buttons, blogging, and incorporating third-party community functionalities like images and videos. Social media optimization is related to search engine marketing, but differs in several ways, primarily the focus on driving traffic from sources other than search engines, though improved search ranking is also a benefit of successful SMO.

Social media optimization is in many ways connected as a technique to viral marketing where word of mouth is created not through friends or family but through the use of networking in social bookmarking, video and photo sharing websites. In a similar way the engagement with blogs achieves the same by sharing content through the use of RSS in the blogsphere and special blog search engines.

Social Media optimization is considered an integral part of an online reputation management (ORM) or Search Engine Reputation Management (SERM) strategy for organizations or individuals who care about their online presence.
