5 Ways to Intuitively Increase Your Websites’ Trust

Increase Your Websites' Trust

When business owners are building their company’s real-life reputation, the first thing they look to achieve is signals of trust. However, many don’t treat their company’s website the same way and wonder why they are struggling to convert website visitors into clients. That’s where trust signals play a vital role in how well your website performs. It’s the little things that showcase the fact that you’re worth someone’s time.

What do you look for in a company whose services you’re enquiring about? The highest on people’s list are the obvious things like, where are they based? Do they offer the service I want? And finally, can I trust them to deliver that service? But, how can you portray your trustworthiness on your website? There are many ways, although, a few of them are much more intuitive and easier to implement than others. Online marketers recommend accreditations, testimonials, case studies, awards and press coverage as an important part of website design. Read More

How to Effectively Optimize Your Content to Make it Rank Without Links (Almost)

Content optimization has never been a child’s play and will never be, as long as Google keeps deploying new algorithms. However, being innovative or at least looking at the existing opportunities from a new angle is an effective way to achieve results in SEO.

Everyone knows that content is king and this post will reveal some smart tips on how to optimize your content and make it King of the Kings. What’s more important, this is possible without significant massive off-page efforts (i.e., you won’t need lots of backlinks).

Inbound marketing is the art of attracting customers through alternative methods, such as great content or impeccable branding. It is a proven way of generating leads and sales, and often times, it can be less expensive than traditional marketing techniques.

When compared to outbound marketing, it is the less aggressive approach. It is all about earning a customer’s trust and attention, not buying it. Meaning that you can gain new leads and loyalty in a much more organic way. In today’s world where the Millennial and Gen Z crowd has become desensitized to advertising, finding new measures to capture your target audience is the key.

But getting your inbound marketing right takes research, insight and a good understanding of your customer – as well as a deep knowledge of the market you’re in. Creating useful and compelling content is at the heart of it all, and companies will need to redirect investment and focus on making their brand shine if they want to stand out against the competition.

Here is a guide on how to nail your inbound marketing campaigns.

How does it feel when after putting considerable efforts on creating a solid digital marketing strategy, your website still gets just enough conversions? It simply means that there is something missing from your end and needs immediate attention. However, there’s one metric that can help you understand this issue in a better manner – Bounce Rate.

Bounce rate is the number of users visiting your website but leaving instantly without making any call for action. They are genuine people who are interested in what you are offering, but somehow, disappointed when they visited your website. A high bounce rate means you need to fix the problem on an immediate basis.

Once you’ve found a way to attract people to your website, how do you get them to stay and browse through your products, services, and offerings? The best way that such things can be measured is by having a decreased bounce rate.

Here then are 10 most innovative tips to help you in reducing the bounce rate of your site and convert more visitors.

Despite the expansive growth of other marketing platforms, website metrics remain an integral indicator of how respective campaigns are performing.

As such, it is important for marketers to have a clear grasp of the data collected and an understanding of how that translates to existing campaigns.

This article is designed to provide a starting point for marketers to glean what different metrics mean, how it applies to their campaigns, and how to identify which ones truly matter. Read More

7 Important KPIs to Monitor in Google Analytics

Google Analytics

Back in the day when I was new to the Google Analytics, I would often stare at reports for hours not knowing what to do.

Until I came to know about KPIs…

Google Analytics has various metrics & dimensions, so it’s very easy for anyone (new) to get lost in a sea of reports.

But once you define your business KPIs, you now have a clear goal & know which report to look at.

Monitoring the right metrics will help you save time & most importantly, achieve your business goals.

In this article, we’ll be looking at some of the important KPIs you can start monitoring in Google Analytics.

These metrics can help you answer questions like

1. Which channel is giving me more returns?

2. Are visitors engaging with my content?

3. What time does the user take to convert once he visits my website? & more.

But before that, let’s understand KPIs.

Influencer Marketing

Influencer marketing is the most effective and popular type of marketing preferred by online marketers across the globe. In 2017, 86% of marketers used this form of marketing and out of them, 92% of marketers reported that this form of marketing has been highly effective for them.

Because of this, 63% of companies have reported an increase in their budgets for influencer marketing. This implies that brands understand the significance of influencer marketing. It is arguably the best way to gain and retain customers.

On the other hand, when we talk about pay per cost (PPC) advertising, the traffic converts 50% more than organic traffic. Also, it is easy to measure, monitor, tweak and track PPC campaigns. When businesses want to see campaign results as soon as possible, then it is best to go with PPC advertising. It is the fastest method to run a campaign and get results almost immediately.

There are a number of ways to generate traffic, but PPC and influencer marketing have grown as the most popular ones. Each of these forms of marketing have their own pros and cons. But in general, influencer marketing is possibly the best way to go for. This post will show you why and how influencer marketing is better than PPC campaigns.

Scale Email Outreach

One of the most powerful and often underused tools that we have at our disposal is mail merge. Let’s face it, people rarely respond to emails which appear to be part of a mass mailing list, and we all love emails which are personally crafted for us.

Although it might seem to be a tedious process, you’ll be surprised at the results that follow once you put in the effort in the beginning.

In this guide, I’ll break down mail merge and show you how to scale your email outreach campaign.

If having a website is obligatory for any enterprise large or small, then it is equally necessary to have the right supporting and expert SEO service. Without a solid SEO foundation, a website just does not achieve the traction it requires to move up the competitive ladder.

Search engine optimization or SEO, on the face of it, is apparently easy. It involves some keyword research, link building, analytics, a bit of social media, content marketing and blogging with a PR here and there.

One might argue that there is no need to bring in a third party SEO expert when in-house staff can take care of these little things. These little things, however, add up to a larger whole that is quite complex if looked at in depth.

SEO today is an art and science blended with experience and expertise. It is also time-consuming and does cost money. Still, however, for a company to generate traffic and revenues it is a wise thing to assign internet marketing to those who have resources, skilled people, and capability.

Let’s consider one by one all that that goes into a simple term SEO.
