Local Search Booms

According to the Pew Internet Project, 63% of American adults now go online. That translates into approximately 126 million people. According to Pew, 88% of those with Internet access use a search engine to find information. That translates into approximately 111 million people.

This is why the cost-per-lead using search engines is $0.29 while the cost-per-lead using the Yellow Pages is $1.18, according to Safa Rashtchy, senior analyst at US Bancorp Piper Jaffray. As more and more marketers, especially at small and medium businesses, discover this fact, they will switch a much larger share of their marketing dollars into local search.

Simply put, producing an award winning website is not enough.

Your firm’s site needs to be placed in front of potential visitors or they will not know you exist. It is the joining of web design, development, and search engine optimization with focused marketing and promotion tactics that is vital to the success of a site. Without smart promotion, a great website will fail.

Search Engine Optimization

When it comes to promotion, everyone knows that organic search engine optimization (SEO) is the key to attaining visitors for very little cost. In fact, SEO is absolutely vital to your online marketing success. As a result, everyone wants to have the top search engine ranking for their firm’s targeted keywords.
