MarketingSherpa in its annual survey asked some of the biggest Internet marketers what tactics worked (and what didn’t) in the past 12 months and where they plan to spend most of their budget in the coming year which points out to some very interesting trends in the world of digital marketing the results are basically from USA market. While paid search ads is the strong favorite the trend seems to be towards Search Engine Optimization (SEO) because of lower costsPaid search continues to be a strong money maker for more than a third of the marketers surveyed, but that number is down steeply from the previous year. The decline reflects an increase in competition that raised keyword prices and lowered ROI.SEO continues to increase in popularity.

    Tata Nano's Online Marketing Initiative
    2008-02-05 10:16:52
    Tata has launched an online community based marketing effort to generate pre launch buzz about Tata Nano and build a community around its brand. Tata Nano is touted as the people’s car and building up on that platform Tata has launched a website named www.tatanano.com to direct to an intrinsically social media driven website for the Tata Nano hosted on Tata Motors subdomain. The website features a blog and a forum which already has 12000 members and a dream car configurator which allows you to play with Tata Nano's design and create your own design. Tata seems to be actively engaging people by also discussing the ideas being generated in forum including the idea of actually selling the car online. Using this Tata can also actually gauge international interest in Nano however the only thing that strikes me is the fact that why is this campaign not on a different microsite but is hosted on Tata Motors own sub domain. ...

    Part 2 - The Genesis for a Successful Online Marketing Campaign
    2007-11-22 16:58:00
    The canvas I have outlined for successful web marketing is taking shape. The first article looked at the necessary stages we need to develop. We started with market research and analysis of our competitors and now armed with this information we can proceed to perhaps the most critical component of all, developing our keyword targets and creating supporting text for them.What’s In a Word?It has been often said that content is king. The choice and expression of these words is what makes the connection to the visitors and helps determine user behaviour. If the message is clear the visitor will know if they are at the website they want (or need) to be at and start the exploring process. Visitor attraction is influenced by a myriad of aspects such as site design, choice of colour, and ease of navigation. Visitor confidence is bolstered in large part through your use of words. Similarly much the same can be said for the search engine spiders; the higher their confidence rating of your webs...

    The Genesis for a Successful Online Marketing Campaign
    2007-11-15 16:45:00
    I am often reminded how important it is to develop a well thought out business plan. I speak with numerous clients each day, each having a passion to promote their service, information or product and yet although they may be experts in their field, they do not have the expertise or foresight on how to market the site. Often times the website is destined to stay in the closet and never get the online exposure they need and are hoping for. And often times the client lacks an objective perspective, sort of being amongst trees in a forest and not being able to see to whole picture.The internet audience has matured and become more sophisticated in its expectations and delivery of information. No longer can one just throw up a site and expect to immediately generate business. Website readiness for online marketing can take many forms. In this and the articles that follow in the next few weeks, we will examine the building blocks to successful web marketing. We will look at:How to work your m...

    How to Use Google Adwords For Online Marketing
    2007-10-22 17:04:37
    Google AdWords is the world's most popular PPC advertising model. Google AdWords customers usually bid far less per click on the content network than they bid for Google Searcher clicks, since the perception is that clicks from content pages are worth less than clicks from the Google Search page. Google AdWords software, services & ebooks to help you maximize your return-on-investment by maximizing the click through ratio, and minimizing the cost-per-click of your Google AdWords ads. AdWords is Google's flagship advertising product and main source of revenue.AdvertisingAdvertising costs are only accrued when users click on your adverts. Even if you already appear in Google's search results, AdWords can help you target new audiences on Google and our advertising network. AdWords offers pay-per-click (PPC) advertising, and site-targeted advertising for both text and banner ads. This has allowed organizations that otherwise would not have the advertising skills to reach a global, online audience. Through testing and measuring, you should be able find the sweet spot where you are most effectively reaching your advertising goals.CampaignsSite targeting campaigns are mainly designed for branding purposes, as the ROI will almost always be considerably lower than a traditional content-targeted campaign. Also, remember to use basic common sense when setting up your campaigns –How would someone search for your product or service. Google Adwords is always making changes that can negatively affect their campaigns, actually they are DESTROYING campaigns.BudgetAdvertise your business on Google No matter what your budget, you can display your ads on Google and our advertising network. You can, for instance, set a daily budget of five dollars and a maximum cost of ten cents for each click on your ad. An account requires a $5 minimum deposit, and you set your own daily budget. You can control your budget and you only pay for clicks.With Google AdWords you can reach people when they are actively looking for your products and services. If your goal is to build visibility on search engines quickly, then Google AdWords is an essential option to explore.

    Google Adwords - Is Your Online Marketing Profitable?
    2007-10-22 00:49:22
    You’ve probably heard talk of not spending more than the click is worth. But that is only part of the profitability equation.By all means keep on tracking the profitability of your Google Ad campaign. But when that’s under control, you should start to compare it with all the other ways you get website visitors or online customers.Don’t lose sight of the fact that what you are after is paying customers, not just website browsers!I recently lost a new customer after only one month. I took over a campaign that they had been running themselves, and the first thing I did was to implement conversion tracking. I gave them a detailed report of what it was costing to acquire each customer at the end of my first month.This showed them that that it was costing more than twice as much to get a customer via Google Ads, than via natural search listings. So they stopped the Ad campaign – not great for me, but it was the right thing for them to do.Make sure you are not wasting your money, by measuring and comparing everything:• How profitable is each keyword or family of related keyword phrases?• How profitable is each of your text Ads?• How profitable is each page on your website where your visitors land?Some keywords may be more profitable in a Google Ad campaign than in natural searches and vice versa. The lifetime value of customers who receive your newsletter may be higher than that of customers who respond to a Google Ad – or vice versa.You can do a lot with Google’s conversion tracking tools on your AdWords campaign.But if you really want to find out the detail of what browsers do when they get to your website – how long do they stay on a particular page or the site; what page do they leave from; does one version of a sales page work better than another; etc – you will need to use a good web analytics package.There are several available, including Google Analytics which has the advantage of being free and fully integrated with Google AdWords.So measure everything and compare the performance of each of your online channels. Remember that you can’t look at one aspect of marketing your business in isolation and expect to get meaningful information.About the AuthorJayne Reddyhoff is the Adword Adviser and specialises in helping small and medium size businesses get their websites onto the first page of the Google search results.
