Assessing Search Marketing Goals & Objectives
With a search engine marketing campaign (i.e. SEM — Google AdWords PPC), your goal could be to expand into a new market, grow market share, or maximize profits. Whatever goal(s) you may have in mind, short and long-term, Mpower Web Solutions can help with the implementation and management of your SEM and SEO campaign.
- Short Term: The short-term goal of SEM and SEO campaign management is to improve your “web presence” through increased website visibility (read: “impressions”). Recently, Google began offering enhancements to paid search listings with the ability to customize links to generate qualified traffic and call-to-action from online marketing efforts. Some of these extensions include:
- Apps — Landing page or link to download your app directly.
- Calls — A clickable phone # or extension link to route and track customer phone calls.
- Locations — Shows a physical location for local walk-in customers.
- Reviews — Displays positive online reviews captured through reputable third-party sources.
- Sitelinks — Ability to showcase specific products/services your customers are searching for.
- Long Term: Long-term goals of higher page rankings as an “organic listing/link” among websites offering competing/similar services may be realized through such an investment in search marketing campaigns (marketing expense) and related website optimization/management/support services offered by Mpower Web Solutions.
Benefits of SEM (Paid) & SEO (Organic)
There are several advantages to “pay-per-click” (PPC) SEM and SEO campaign management offered by Mpower Web Solutions. First of all, the “pay-per-click” (AKA “paid inclusion”) approach to search marketing essentially provides a promotional platform to establish your “web presence”, and can certainly benefit any business professional, start-up venture, or organization. Google AdWords Search Marketing also provides the ability to identify and attract “targeted” website traffic specific to your customer base. Lastly, Google AdWords is an excellent digital marketing resource for generating targeted website traffic, producing sales leads, and growing revenues, while minimizing marketing and IT-related expenses.
