SEO PRODUCES PROSPECTS AND CUSTOMERS
Search Engine Optimization (SEO) is and continues to be an essential part of most businesses’ marketing strategies, despite the changing digital landscape (the link is to a post about Penguin 2.0, Google in now on Penguin 4). This prosperity of SEO as a marketing tool is as a result of the numerous advantages this platform offers; for instance, it produces good leads which can easily be converted into customers or sales.
Here is a look at other benefits provided by SEO:
INCREASED TRAFFIC: Despite the “restructuring” of Google’s technique for achieving top rank in search results pages, SEO can still be used to enable a company’s web page increase its web traffic. By creating keyword relevant web content, Meta descriptions and informative articles your web page can still achieve top rank hence, increased traffic. Also, well-optimized descriptions and tags can help increase your click through rate, which can be converted into qualified web traffic.
ROI: When it comes to Return on Investment (ROI) SEO is great as it provides quantifiable and tractable results for both businesses that are in the e-commerce platform and those that are not. This is because by using SEO as a marketing tool, you can track every aspect of your strategy from increased page rankings, to increased traffic and conversion rates/numbers.
COST EFFECTIVENESS
Because SEO targets users who are already actively searching for your services or products online, it generates more qualified traffic when compared to other strategies such as cold-calling; this makes SEO a cost effective marketing strategy for any business.
INCREASED BRAND AWARENESS
SEO enables the business website to achieve top positions in search engine result pages which not only increases your business’ exposure, but it also helps build your brand. Also, your target audience will trust your business more due to the high ranking, and will even associate with your brand.
