through your traditional media
 Track and measure

7.  Traditional marketing concept
 When translated online, this is your
keywords, and how you present your
content digitally
 Identify your USP and talk about it
everywhere

8.  Why do you deserve to rank online?
 What makes you better than the competition?
 What makes you different / unique?
 What is your specialized knowledge?

9. Similarities:
 You always need a good plan
 You need to measure success = ROI

 listen to market speak
 “Hints” from Google
Tips:
 Be specific
 Use geo-targeted words
 Explore topics of interest
 Consider common problems
of your market
 Keyword research dictates
content

14.  Remember that prospects will see/hear your message
offline, and go online to learn more. Be sure to use the same
keywords across channels.
 Search engines only know what you’re about from the text
you use. They aren’t very intuitive.
 Semantics: Offline, users see an image and know that
senior=elderly. Online, you have to help the search engines
understand that senior=elderly and not executive or high
school or college. You do this by the other words you use in
proximity

15.  Competition
 Online = Top ranking websites for your keywords
 Offline = May be different
 Competitor’s Social Media Sites
 What social sites do they use?
 Are users engaged?
 Evaluate Competitor’s Content
 What keywords do they use?
 What makes them unique?
 What are they doing that you can do different or
better?
 What specials do they offer?

16. Google – allintitle:keyword
 Measures level of online competition, so you know what keywords
to target
 Helps you set realistic ranking goals
 Target more specific, less competitive phrases first

17.  Social Media
 Compliments
 Complaints
 Common problems
 Helpful Research Sites:
 whostalkin.com

 Offline = direct mail, comment cards

18.  Offline:

 Online:
 Improve online reviews = can result in more
traffic, more visibility, and more referrals
 Build reputation
 Add content that your market is looking for (but not
finding elsewhere?)

20. Understanding how the search engines work will help
you understand how to optimize for them.

21. This is what the user sees…

22. This is what the search engines see…

23. Traditional vs. Digital
 In traditional we only have one view to consider – the
end user. In digital, we have to consider the end user
AND the search engine.
 This is why keywords are so important, as well as
other technical considerations that the user doesn’t
see.

24.  Universal Search
 Different types of content can rank
 Build and optimize different types of content
to increase your reach
 Do some searches for your keywords to
determine what other type of content is
ranking
 Most likely: Maps, Places, and Blogs
 Personalized Search
 Affected by your physical location
 Affected by recent queries
 Affected by search history
 Affected by settings in your Google account
(5 % - 25% of your traffic may be from users who were
logged into Google account while searching)

25. • Technical
• Content
• Links

27.  Corporate handles most of the technical details
on the back end
 What you can control:
 Title tags
 Meta tags

28. General Guidelines
 Title tags and Meta tags should be unique on every
page, relevant to the page topic, and only use words from that
page
 Meta keywords tag
 ignored by all engines so use of it won’t help
 it will only be recognized if you use it incorrectly then it will
hurt you
 Title Tag: main keyword + location | business name | more
keywords
 Meta Description: info about more services /
keywords, PHONE NUMBER, and location info

31. Bing.com/webmaster

33.  Duplicate Content Considerations
 Filter, not a penalty
 Templated content = protects your brand
 Localized content = adds local element, increases ratio of
unique site content
 Add unique content, custom pages, localized info, etc.
 Semantics
 Keywords should appear consistently per page throughout
various tags
 Focus on USP
 Promo page: Don’t delete when promo is over. If page is
indexed and then deleted, users could end up on an error
page from a search. Solution: Add message “This promotion
has expired but please stay tuned for the next promotion”

35. Link Marketing is Social Networking
 Quality not Quantity
 Link TO other authority sites
 Link TO related sites

networks
 Social media links DO help

 You may find opportunities to contribute content and/or link

39.  Link Magnet or Link Bait Examples
 Informative
 Educational
 Instructional “How To”
 Humorous
 Potential to go viral
 Potential to be reviewed by industry leaders
 Offers benefit to the user
 Remember your USP

40.  Blog Comment Spam = Bad
 Not relevant
 Vague: “Thank you. Great post”
 Gibberish
 Link filled comment
 “Name” is keyword and links to suspicious site
 Don’t be a comment spammer, and don’t approve
spam comments on your blog
 Forum Expert = Good
 Be active in forum
 Gain positive feedback on your posts
 Make sure your signature links back to your site
 Being a forum expert earns trust and quality score for
your site

108. • First and Foremost: Be confident that you already provide a quality
service worth reviewing.
• Preliminary market research offline using traditional methods
to determine current reputation.
• Fix if needed.
• Then go online.
• Google reads reviews on other sites
Angie’s List, Foursquare, Yelp
Claim and optimize your listing on those sites as well
• Ask for a review in person
• “My boss reads our online reviews and it would help me out…”
• “Please leave a compliment for your in-home provider here…”
• Add link from site to review sites
• Add review suggestion on print materials
• What sites are your competitors getting reviewed on? Get reviews
there as well.
• Tailor approach to customer base

109. • Do not pay for reviews, or offer money, product or service
• Google says don’t do it
• It cheapens the relationship
• If you provide a quality service, you shouldn’t have to
pay
• Do not fake reviews

110. What if I get a bad review?
• It’s an opportunity to make it right
• It happens to everyone, don’t panic
• Start offline, try to fix it
• Make a public response online to invite them to let you fix
the problem
• Don’t be emotional. Be polite. Be an adult.
• Publicly respond to online reviews with notice that you’ve
fixed the problem. This is an opportunity to improve
reputation.
• No one is perfect. 5 Star companies with only all reviews
look fake. More trust in a company who is slightly “human”.
• When all else fails, you may be able to delete the review on
some sites
