ad campaigns online to increase traffic
By Ron Kule of Sales Training Services, Inc.
The best marketing tool for the 21st century is turning out to be search marketing online. An overwhelmingly large percentage of potential buyers in local markets search online before they purchase goods and services. To be a part of this marketing evolution, small to medium size businesses, and entrepreneurs, need an online presence that reaches these prospects. The difficulty for small businesses is that to get an effective web site designed and up and running alone may be too expensive for most to handle easily; yet, they must promote. This is a classic "Catch 22" situation. Also, it is not enough to have an online presence if no one is there to read the message. Companies with immense advertising budgets can and do tend to dominate the front pages of Google and scores of other search engine sites. And very few searchers will go past the first few pages, if they even wander beyond the first page at all. What can a small company with a small budget do? A well-optimized landing page that is search engine friendly will show up on the front page of Google and other search sites and give an immediate presence on the Web, putting more eyes on the small company link. Landing pages can effectively provide for informative text, calls to action, and information gathering. They become launching pads for readers to visit the actual web site where s/he may become a purchasing customer. More clicks to any landing page actually indirectly increases the relevancy of the link across the entire Web network. When it comes to search engines, relevancy is one of the keys to front page exposure and maximum potential for traffic building. Additionally, geo-targeted marketing levels the playing field for small to medium size businesses wishing to garner an optimized online presence in local market areas alongside large companies with large ad budgets, who tend to dominate these markets. When businesses are able to promote to specific geographical areas only, they can eliminate potentially large losses and budget overruns associated with unlimited pay-per-click advertising.
Optimized landing pages and geo-targeted advertising are only two factors that enable increased traffic and better, more affordable click-through rates. For small to medium size businesses and entrepreneurs effective online marketing is the new 21st century reality for success.
