SEO Marketing Strategy and Services include:
Step 1 – Define an Effective Strategy
All too often, B2B and industrial companies dive into search engine marketing without a coherent strategy. Don’t fall into this trap. Get off on the right foot by thoroughly defining your target audience(s), identifying their needs and motivations and highlighting how your products can serve these needs. Next, review your company’s position in the marketplace. Identify your top competitors and your company’s competitive advantage. Finally, identify specific goals and benchmarks, such as search rankings, website traffic increases, sales lead volume and other ROI metrics, to allow you to measure the success of your search engine marketing campaign. This strategy will form the foundation of your campaign and put you on the path to success.
Step 2 – Choose the Best Keyword Phrases
The most critical step in search engine marketing is to strategically select the most important keyword phrases for your company. If you do not perform this step properly, your search engine marketing campaign is destined for failure. When choosing the best keywords, it is critical to choose phrases that are not only relevant to your business, but also ones that are searched most often by your target customers throughout the buyer’s journey. Begin by getting inside the heads of your customers and brainstorm about potential terms your customers use when thinking about your products and capabilities through the awareness, consideration and decision stages of the buyer’s journey. Ask your salespeople and customer service people what phrases they think are most important. You may even want to ask your best customers. Then, turn to keyword research tools provided by Google Ads, Moz, SEMrush, HubSpot, etc. to create a list of highly searched terms that will drive targeted traffic to your Website.
Step 3 – Optimize Your Site for Organic Search
Now that we know your most important keywords throughout the buyer’s journey, let’s put them to work. You need to make sure your B2B website content is optimized to take advantage of these important phrases. Begin with your site copy – the information people can read on your website. Make sure you skillfully write your site copy to effectively market your company, while using your important keyword phrases in a relevant fashion. Next, focus on your website structure – the code under the hood of your website that search engines see when they visit your website. Make sure that your website “crawlable” to ensure all content gets indexed by the top search engines Google and Bing. Also, use your keyword phrases relevantly in page title tags, heading tags, file names, alt tags and meta tags.
Please note: while the keywords meta tag has been exploited over the years, the description meta tag is very important. This description will show up in the search results below your link, providing a great opportunity for you to entice the searcher to click through to your Website.
Step 4 – Attract Quality Links to Your Website
Link building involves gaining links to your website from other websites that are frequented by your targeted visitors. The more quality inbound links you have, the more popular your site is in the eyes of Google, Bing and other engines. And, these links can have a dramatic effect on your search ranking. A good place to start your link building efforts is to make your Website content link-worthy. Good content attracts links, so fill your Website with interesting and informative content such as a library of best practices articles, a blog about developments and trends in your industry, etc. Next, get your Website listed in online directories and portals. Look first to important online destinations within your industry, then focus on general purpose directories like Better Business Bureau and Business.com. You can also garner links from vendors, customers, business partners and trade associations. Finally, you should leverage online public relations and distribute press releases and articles online. By consistently applying these link building strategies, you will dramatically impact your ranking on Google and boost your online popularity.
Step 5 – Manage an ROI-driven Paid Search Campaign
Pay-per-click advertising (PPC) in the advertised links search results offers a compelling ROI-driven marketing opportunity. Unlike traditional advertising, where you “pay for exposure” regardless of the results, with PPC you are not paying to be listed in the search results. You only pay if someone clicks on your ad and visits your B2B website, providing a compelling “pay for performance” mode of advertising. To manage an ROI-driven paid search campaign, first, bid on the most relevant keywords. Don’t pick terms based on popularity alone. Make sure your product offering will be of interest to the searcher. Second, tie your bidding strategy to business results. Think cost-per-lead and cost-per-sale, instead of just cost-per-click. In many cases, a lower ad position will produce a higher ROI. Finally, include a compelling “call to action” in the ad and send traffic to a relevant landing page tied to the ad. A compelling and relevant offer will help lift response and boost your ROI.
Step 6 – Take Advantage of Google’s Services for Quick Ranking
In addition to the strategies mentioned earlier, Google offers a number of services that allow you to quickly boost your company’s exposure in search results. If you’ve got a brick and mortar retail location, create a Google My Business page to display your location, phone number, opening hours, aggregate and respond to customer reviews and connect with customers. This listing affects how people see your business when searching on Google.com, Google Maps and Google+. Even if you don’t have a retail location, you should take advantage of Google My Business for your office address. If you’ve got products that you can assign prices and photos to, you’d be wise to use Google Merchant to get on Google Shopping. With this tool, you can create a data feed of your products to Google via a spreadsheet, XML or API-accessed upload. While the requirements and specifications are strict, an effort to create an accurate data feed could pay big dividends.
Step 7 – Measure Success
As with all marketing activities, you must measure success to see how well you performed in the past, as well as identify actionable strategies to improve your results in the future. Since B2B search engine marketing is all about attracting targeted traffic, begin by leveraging web analytics to monitor traffic increases from search, as well as time-on-site, new vs. returning visitor analytics and much more. To make sure the volume of targeted visitors continues to increase, you should also monitor your position or ranking in the search results. On a regular basis, check your position in Google and Bing for your most important keyword phrases to see how well you are trending upward toward a top 10 ranking. if you don’t want to do it manually, check out Pro Rank Tracker for a comprehensive rank tracker and reporting solution. Finally, to measure the success of your pay-per-click advertising efforts, harness the measurable nature of the Web to track the cost-per-visit, cost-per-lead, and cost-per-sale for all of your pay-per-click ads.
