SEO vs. SEM

There is a Big Difference in SEO vs. SEM

SEO and SEM are for Improving Website Rankings
SEO and SEM are for Improving Website Rankings

The first thing to consider about SEO vs. SEM is that you can have SEM (Search Engine Marketing) without Search Engine Optimization. However, your SEM won’t be as effective without SEO. Search Engines are the single greatest Return On Investment for a company. The people that use them are already looking for a specific product or information.

SEO is the process of utilizing on-site and off-site tactics to make sure what you have to offer through your website can be understood by the search engines like Google. SEM is a broader form of online marketing that utilizes SEO, social media, and mobile marketing to have your website show up in front of customers looking for your goods or services.

SEO vs. SEM: What They Have in Common

The Same Goal

Most companies have a website.  They want to make sure that their website is found by the people that are needing their good or services. In order to do this, their website needs to rank on the first page of the Search Engine Results Page, or SERP. If you are new to online marketing, then you should know now that if you are not on the first page of the search engine results you might as well not have a website.

The goal of SEO and SEM is to boost the ranking of a website on a Search Engine Results Page. By properly utilizing SEO and SEM tactics your website can be identified by Google, Bing, or Yahoo and those algorithms will make sure that your website is placed in front of the people looking for what you have to offer.

Keyword Driven

SEO and SEM are both driven by keywords. The search engines take a person’s request and boil it down to the most relevant keywords in their query. It will take a question like “What is the best Italian restaurant in Reno?” and begin looking for “Italian restaurants reno” or “best Italian restaurants reno”. When implementing SEO or SEM tactics you want to try and think of all the relevant keywords associated with your business or variations of those keywords. This will require a little bit of research and there are several online tools that can help you with this process. Next, make sure those keywords are a part of the website copy or advertisement.  By doing this, you are informing the search engines what you are about in the fewest words possible and they will make sure your website is visible to the people looking for you.

SEO vs. SEM: The Difference (And They are Big)

The Focus

PPC is a Form of SEM
PPC is a Form of SEM

SEO focuses strictly on your website to improve search engine ranking. It is focused on keyword placement, backlinks from other websites, blog posts, web page load times, and much more. SEO is in a constant state of flux due to the constant updates that search engines make to their algorithms.

SEM is a little more constant. It utilized PPC, or Pay-Per-Click, services such as Google Adwords. SEM also includes ads on social media channels. The focus is on the actual advertisement for the website and not the website itself. You still want to use the same keywords you have discovered for SEM that you use in SEO, but you get far less space to use them.  The placement also isn’t as important. PPC ads are not a webpage. They are a link to your website.

Money

SEO is potentially free if you are building your own website. It will cost you time though. There several online guides available to help you understand keyword placement and build backlinks. If you don’t have the time to do this then there are several agencies available to help you out. Usually, it is a one-time fee for a full website optimization.  The only continuing fees that come into play is if you want someone to write your blogs for you.

SEM costs money.  You are paying Google, Bing, Facebook, or Twitter to place your ads in front of targeted demographics. It is called Pay-Per-Click because you are paying anywhere from ten cents to two dollars for every person that clicks on the link you have posted as part of your advertisement. The more people that click, the more you pay. However, you can set a daily, weekly, or monthly limit. So, once it is reached your ad will be taken down until the next ad cycle.

Time

SEO is a long-term investment. It can take months of regular blogging after a full website optimization before you will begin to see an increase in foot traffic. However, once you have climbed your way to the top of the SERP you will generally stay there. SEM has a much more immediate effect as you are paying to have your advertisement to be placed at the top of the SERP. You will see a very sharp increase in your foot traffic very quickly, but once you stop paying for your ad it will fall off the first page of the SERP. Your website might still be there, but only if you have optimized it correctly.

Is SEO Better Than SEM?

The answer is up for debate.  Google does give higher ranking to SEM ads that are linked to well SEO-ed websites. So, if you are using the same keywords and messaging on your website as you are in your PPC ad you will rank higher.  If your advertisement is for sponge cakes and your website is written for gym socks, then the search engines will identify a disconnect and rank you lower. Search Engines are in the business of connecting people to what they are looking for.

Copywriting for Wealth Management to Become King

Boost Your Copywriting for Your Wealth Management Company

Good Copywriting for Your Wealth Management Firm Can Put More Green in Your Hand
Good Copywriting for Your Wealth Management Firm Can Put More Green in Your Hand

Blogging or copywriting for wealth management companies can be a very tedious process. Money can make the world go around, but it doesn’t exactly make for stimulating internet reading. (unless it’s your money and you’re checking on stocks) That doesn’t mean as a wealth management company that you should just put up droll facts.  There are ways to inform your clients without putting them to sleep. There are also a few things to consider to avoid potential liability.

1. Don’t Overpromise and Be Honest:

This should go without saying for any industry. However, in the world of wealth management it is the biggest pit fall to avoid. It can be tempting to write how you can make money for people over night. It’s easy copywriting to say all your client’s financial dreams can come true, but DON’T DO IT!  Not even in the slightest. As a wealth manager you might be able to effectively predict an economic future. That’s only one possibility. Things can go south very easily. Market volatility is a very real thing. Be honest from the first written word. Let your clients know that you are available as a guide, or advisor, and nothing more. This will increase the acceptability for compliance and mitigate any possibilities for liability.

2. Explain Your Credentials/Processes:

Convincing a client of your abilities is a combination of explaining your credentials and overviewing your processes. However, there are a few things to keep in mind. You spent a long time earning your certifications and possibly your college degree. It’s not a promising idea to just string a series of acronyms. You know what they stand for, but most of your clients won’t know until you detail it out. You could write CPA, MST, CRPC, or PFC, but the average person has no idea what any of that means. Even if you have taken the time to write out Certified Public Accountant instead of CPA you still might not convince everyone.

Take the time to briefly explain what that acronym means. Then give some examples of what you can do because you earned that title. Most people think CPAs only file taxes, but in the land of wealth management, a CPA can help choose when to retire and reduce the amount of taxes a retiree has to pay. This is also an appropriate time to outline some of the services you provide. So instead of saying you’re a retirement planning pro explain what options you have available to help clients achieve the retirement they have been hoping for.

3. Forget the Shop Talk:

Make your copy writing and blogs as easy to read as possible. There should be no question in anyone’s mind about what a word or sentence means. You can use terms like IRA, Roth, and other acronyms with your partners and administration, but they are just letters to the average person. Be sure to write out what those services are and how they can help a potential client.

4. Lighten the Mood:

Talking about money can be a very difficult conversation. Even between couples who know one another intimately. So, you don’t want to encourage people to be reserved when it comes to this topic. Anecdotes, quotes, and jokes can all be interjected to decrease the brevity of this serious topic. This doesn’t mean that you want to add in a joke at the start of every paragraph or finish each one with a quote. These techniques should be used just enough to keep your readers interested in between all the facts that you are trying to convey. It’s okay if it doesn’t make people laugh out loud, but you have given their brain a rest from all that information.

Keyword Research: Where Online Marketing Begins for Small Business

Keyword Research Needs to be Your First Stop

Keyword Research Needs to be First
Keyword Research Needs to be First

Keyword research is one of the mysterious, yet essential, parts of small business marketing. As a Small business owner, you don’t have a huge marketing budget. You need to maximize every bit of energy and money you put into your business. Performing keyword research and making sure your website content is keyword focused will ensure you have a better chance of being found by your target market.

Everyone uses Keywords to Search the Internet

Consumers are constantly asking Google, Bing, and Mozilla Firefox to find them the best answers, products, and services. There is no reason that these consumers shouldn’t be finding your products and services. Taking the time to research the keywords that your target audience is using is essential to be found by them.

Your keyword research will be guided by two main things. The service, or product, you are offering and how your target market refers to that service or product. Just because you are selling science fiction books doesn’t mean your audience is going to call them that. They might type in “best science fiction”, or “alien genocide fiction”, or “alien thriller” into the search engine. There are times that you and your audience will use the same verbiage, but the chances are slim.

Where to start your Keyword Research?

Keyword Research Will Give You Ideas
Keyword Research Will Give You Ideas

It would be great if there was a way to do this for free, but the choices are limited with limiting information. Google Adwords will help you identify keywords if you begin a campaign. SEMRush offers the first ten searches free, but if you are serious about this process you will have to pay at least $100 for a one-month subscription with SEMRush. Before you go off and invest this money there are a few steps you can take to make sure you get the full value of your mone

1.Make Your Own Keyword List:

Begin your keyword research using your own ideas. Make a list of all the keywords that you think your target audience might use when looking for your product, or service, on the internet. If you are a plumber, think of every service you can offer, and any tool that you might use. You never know what keyword someone is using to find your service.

2. Use those keywords in a Search Engine:

Type each one of your keywords into a search engine. Taking the time to do this will help you two-fold. First, you will be able to see if anyone uses the keywords you have chosen. Second, you quickly identify your competition. You will want to keep these websites on a sperate list. If you do purchase a subscription to an SEO tool you will want to check on each of these websites. You might find keywords you didn’t think about.

3. Add in Long Tail Keywords:

It is rather difficult to rank for generic short words such as “bread”, “pool”, or “arcade”. Most consumers don’t use words like this when they want to take advantage of these products and services. Long tail keywords are more commonly used. These are keyword phrases that usually have three words or more. So, instead of “bread”, you would want to use “gluten-free bread” or, “homemade bread”.

From here you will have to pay for a subscription to an SEO tool.  It might not be necessary, but if you want to get as accurate results as possible then I recommend investing the $100. Once you’ve refined your list then you can begin focusing on your next step writing your content.

5 Ways to Generate Original Blog Ideas: Tips For Small Business Owners

Let the Blog Ideas Flow!!!

 

Blog Ideas Come from an Open Mind
Blog Ideas Come from an Open Mind

Blog Ideas. If you advertise online or you run an online business, then you have to have them. Once fleshed out into blogs, they keep the search engines happy. More importantly, blogs keep the consumers happy in this modern age of content creation and consumption.

Blogs are important for each customer’s path on the buying cycle. Blogs serve to inform, inspire, and ultimately persuade consumers to spend their hard-earned dollar with you and not your competitor. But did you know they also serve an alternate SEO purpose as well?

You are going need to blog as long as you are using the internet for any part of your business. You can’t just throw up a website and expect people to come clicking over to it. You need to update your website regularly to earn any kind of authority with the search engines. Blogs help the search engines identify what your website is about. You also need blogs to share on social media and establish authority with your customers.  So, where does this seemingly endless supply of blog ideas need to come from? Just keep reading.

Top 5 Places To Look for Blog Ideas

1.Local Events

Blog Ideas Aid with Good SEO
Blog Ideas Aid with Good SEO

If there is any event that pertains to your business then this is one of best blog ideas to capture. Blogs give you an opportunity to share your opinion as an expert. Even if there isn’t anything that doesn’t pertain to your business then you should still blog on local events, or even sports (It is okay to root for your favorite team).  Just by mentioning local events, and the city or area they are located, you will be taking advantage of the local optimization search engines have built into their algorithm

For example, If you promote events from Miami, Florida, then the search engines are going to assume that your business is located near that area. They will then promote it to people that live in that area and type in keywords pertaining to your business.

2. The Competition

Keeping up with the competition should be something you already do. Reading what they are blogging about will give you quite a few ideas in the direction you should be driving your own blog. You are not going to want to copy their ideas exactly, but you can take advantage of the same keywords they are using and put your own spin on them.

3. Social Media

Twitter Is Great for Sourcing Blog Ideas
Twitter Is Great for Sourcing Blog Ideas

You will not always be able to interact with your customers face to face. Social media is the next best thing. You can carry on multiple conversations with customers earning their trust and garnering their opinions. Post questions openly. Ask if they have any problems, concerns, or feedback that they would like to share via the social media channel. Whether they are happy or upset customers enjoy sharing their thoughts.

 

4. Customer Survey

If you have any sales people in your employ, or you are on the front line sales then there is no better feedback for blog ideas then customers. Take the time to ask them what questions they have about your product or services. Their feedback is invaluable. By writing the content they are looking for, you can also turn your customers into advocates and give them something to share on social media.

5. Online Ideas

It has to be mentioned. Just by typing in “ blog ideas “ you get more than 32 million hits on the subject. This is not my first choice by any stretch of the imagination. You’ll find that many of the ideas are just reciting the same thing over and over, but there are some genuine gems. Just make sure you can capture the right keywords with them.

Need Even More Help With Your Blog Ideas

There are many more places that blog ideas can come from. Once you’ve compiled enough research from these areas you may have more blogs then you have time to write them.  Then it’s time to bring in a little extra help.

Organic SEO Solutions is a provider of keyword focused blogs and web copy. Our written content gets your website recognized by search engines with relevant topics for your customer base. Take advantage of our Search Engine Optimization knowledge to drive more traffic and bolster your online authority.

Can a Blog Be Too Long? Website Word Count Tips for Small Business Owners

Word Count Matters A Lot in Your Blogs

 

Keywords Matter When Your Blog
Keywords Matter When Your Blog

Blogging is essential to an effective online marketing campaign. Not only does it boost your authority with your clients, but it shows the search engines out there that you are actively updating your website. Search Engines hate stagnant websites. They snub any website that just sits around with old content.

If you are familiar with the backend of your website this marketing technique requires only your time.  But time is the one thing that small business owners struggle to find. And when you do find it, you want to make sure you’re making the most of it. Why write a novel-length blog if you don’t have to?

The Perfect Length of a Blog Boosts Your Organic Traffic

Some SEO specialists will say the best results come from longer blog posts (1000+ words). Others will tell you that this approach has a tendency to alienate your audience and you should keep your word count to 500-750. However, all online marketers can agree that this maximum number has been a moving target for the last twenty years.

We’ll get back to the maximum in a minute. First, let’s establish a minimum. Your blogs and landing pages should be at least 300 words in length. Any shorter than this and it will be extremely difficult for the search engines to establish what your blog or landing page is about. This, in turn, will cause the search engines to direct the wrong foot traffic to your website, or none at all.

To Blog Forever or Not Blog Forever?

SEO Loves Keywords But It Won't Pay Your Bills
SEO Loves Keywords But It Won’t Pay Your Bills

When you take the time to write a 1000 word blog you are taking advantage of a whole list of keywords and you are doing it organically. This gives the search engines a better idea of what your website is about.  This creates authority with the search engines and they will reward your efforts by ranking your website higher on the results page. Longer copy also ensures that you will rank for multiple long tail variant keywords.

This approach does wonders for SEO and results page ranking. However, neither one of these entities will give you any money for your products or services. They don’t have any to give. In our modern day world of memes and billboards, many consumers don’t want to take the time to read a blog or landing page of 1000+ words. Most readers won’t read any more than the headlines before moving onto another webpage.

The Blogging Sweet Spot

The sweet spot for a blog-length depends entirely on your customers. If you are a law firm or psychologist, then your customers would expect blog posts in excess of 1000 words.  These kinds of consumers are looking to be informed thoroughly and shorter blogs just can’t satiate their desire for knowledge.

If your business is for air tours of Southern California or baseball equipment then your blogs would need to be shorter.  These shorter blogs would attract and inform customers in the amount of time available to them.

Organic SEO Solutions provides keyword focused blogs and landing pages for small business owners. Our skilled writing team crafts content that speaks to your customers in a language they can appreciate. Unlock the potential of your website and watch your conversion rate skyrocket.

4 Tips for Copywriting for House Cleaning Services: Small Business Hacks

Clean Up Your Copywriting for House Cleaning Services

Keeping Your Copy writing for House Cleaning Interesting is Easy.
Keeping Your Copywriting for House Cleaning Interesting is Easy.

Most of you probably think that House Cleaning is tedious. And the thought of having to write about house cleaning probably makes you want to burn all of the pens in your house. The tasks of sweeping, disinfecting, and mopping are so commonplace. How are you supposed to make copywriting for house cleaning services on your website sound interesting?

Cleaning of some kind is something just about every American has performed at least once in their lifetime. So, when it comes to this kind of copy you already have a leg up because you have something in common with every American. It’s not difficult to talk to someone about cleaning. The trick to this business is convincing them that they don’t want to clean their house anymore.

Here Are 5 Tips for Copywriting for House Cleaning Services To Clean Up Your Website

  1. Sell the Smell in Your House Cleaning Copywriting.
    Sell the Smell in Your House Cleaning Copywriting.

    Make it Relate-able – Everyone knows what you’ll be cleaning and most likely how as well. They don’t want to think about those steps and will most likely be at work while you’re performing them. Your copywriting for house cleaning services needs to remind your prospective clients about how good a clean house feels. They need to be reminded of what they can accomplish now that they are not cleaning their house. Tell them about the things that can happen in a clean house like entertaining company.

  2. Focus on Your Unique Selling Proposition – If you are green certified house cleaning service that only uses environmentally friendly cleaners and techniques, then it should be mentioned on each service page, your home page, and in every blog. Maybe you are a small three woman/man operation that focuses on one-to-one cleaning services. Perhaps speed is your unique angle. Cleaning teams can get a lot done in two hours. Can your cleaning team do more? Whatever it is that makes you special make sure your clients know it too.
  3. Talk about Your Cleaning Tools in Your Copy.
    Talk about Your Cleaning Tools in Your Copy.

    Talk about your Process and Tools – Now, I know I mentioned that you don’t want to focus too heavily on this aspect of your copywriting for house cleaning services. However, you do want to answer any questions potential clients may have on your web page. One of the first questions after “Are you trustworthy?” is “What do you use to clean my house?” Obviously, they know you are going to be using sponges, cleaners, and vacuums, but are you using a unique cleaning tool? Micro-fiber rags are known for providing a better clean. Some clients prefer green certified cleaners, and others have sensitive allergies and will require a HEPA filter on your vacuum cleaner. These are just a few possibilities that you may want to consider when focusing on this section of the copywriting. Just don’t devote the whole page to it. You want to keep it to a paragraph, or a set of bullet points.

  4. Sell the Smell – The human nose is the most perceptive organ we own. Your nose can survey a room and determine how you should conduct yourself long before your eyes can take everything in. Everyone knows what a clean house smells like and how inviting it can be to family and friends. It relaxes people helping them to settle into the evening. You don’t want to come out and say, “You’ll love the way your house smells when we leave” in your copywriting for house cleaning. You want to gently nudge your clients reminding them that clean houses host fresher parties and retain more guests for longer periods of time. The smell of a clean house is genuinely relaxing as your clients don’t have to worry about exerting any extra energy domestically after a hard day’s work. This is where the old adage comes into play. Sell the sizzle, not the steak.

Organic SEO Solutions specializes in blogs, web content, and copywriting centered around the house. House Cleaning, Construction, and Child Care are the three areas we focus on. Our keyword focused web content has boosted the ranking of websites on search engine results pages and increased monthly foot traffic dramatically. More customers looking at your website always equates to more money for your house cleaning business.

4 Tips on Copywriting for Construction

Copywriting for Construction Depends on the Clientele.

Copywriting for Construction
Copywriting for Construction Keeps Business Rolling

Most, if not all, small construction businesses (plumbers, electricians, etc.) need online copywriting for business marketing. Unfortunately, they don’t have the budget to take advantage of major online marketing companies. Instead, most small companies turn to the administrative aid, or someone in-house, and, “Say write me two blogs a month about our company, and we need six landing pages for the website launch.” While these individuals might know the clientele they may never have done any copywriting for construction companies.

How to Tackle Copywriting for Construction

So, where do you start if you are one of these small businesses?  Copywriting for your construction company begins by thinking like someone who has never picked up a hammer in their life. All a customer knows is they want to enjoy a larger house, or they want their toilet fixed, or they want a larger patio. In order to earn the trust of these consumers’, you have to talk to them on their level in terms that everyone can understand. Not to point out the obvious, but you can’t use any shop talk. So, no terms like “bobcat”, “skid steer”, and “Hilti gun”. For some professions like painting, this will be easier than HVAC, or plumbing.

Here are Four Things to Consider when writing copywriting for construction

  1. All benefit from regular blogging.
    Framer? Painter? Plumber? All benefit from regular blogging.

    USP: Unique Selling Proposition: What sets you apart? Every company takes a unique angle for their profession. Benjamin Franklin is always on time. Savage and Son, in Nevada, is the oldest operating business license for plumbing, HVAC, and piping. What is your company’s USP? It needs to overshadow all the copywriting for construction marketing? Here are some thoughts to think about? Do your clients deal directly with the owners? Do you use only green certified building materials and techniques? Are the services offered twenty-four hours for emergencies?

  2. Business credentials: It is important to put consumer’s minds at ease by letting them you will be accountability for every single action you take on their property and in the home. Consumers want to see that you are licensed, bonded, and insured. This is just the minimum of what an internet savvy consumer is looking for. Be sure to list any endorsements such as the BBB, or another local organization. Another credential that many consumers research is reviews and testimonials. While you can do very little for your reviews on Yelp, you can collect testimonials from your former clients. Whenever a good job has been accomplished, be sure to get the client’s opinion for the record.
  3. Homeowners Like To Know About Big Machines
    Homeowners Like To Know About Big Machines

    Materials and Supplies: Outline the home supplies, equipment, and products that will be used during the installation. After you have let the client know your USP, you begin building trust by showcasing the reliable equipment that will be installed into a home. List out your available paints, if you are a painter. Outline whether you use copper piping, or PVC if you are a plumber, and where you will use it in the home.

  4. Outline your process: This is the most important part of your copywriting. Consumers’ don’t like surprises, especially in their home. This does not have to be a definite guide, but if an excavator shows up on a client’s lawn they want to know why it’s there. They should also know what stage of their construction is beginning. When outlining your process starts with the assessment and then dive right into the construction as if the materials are already there. Write out briefly, your preparation work, installation process, and then your finishing process. Be sure to list out rough wait times in between steps.

Copywriting for Construction needs to be enticing and invigorating, but most importantly it has to establish trust in your knowledge of your trade. Not all four of these things need to be listed on every product, or service, page, but the information needs to be available for those consumers looking to do in-depth research on a contractor.

Organic SEO Solutions is a copywriting company that focuses on copywriting and blogs having to do with the home. Construction, Child Care, and Residential/Commercial cleaning. Eight years of experience accompanies each of the areas of specialization. Get the copywriting you need, when you need, by experts in their industry.

3 Ways to Earn Credible External Backlinks: SEO for Small Businesses

External Backlinks Build Credibility and Authority

The Right Back Links Build Web Authority
The Right Back Links Build Web Authority

Backlinks, both internal and external, have become one of the most crucial components to ranking in search engine results pages. When a website sets a link to your blog or your website, it’s like they are giving you an online endorsement. Google sees these and, if the website is credible, Google will reward you for earning them and rank your website higher.

Earning reputable backlinks is not an easy thing to do, and it can be very time consuming for small business owners. This is an optimization project you might have to pay someone else to perform or something you will have to tackle a little further down the road.

Put your research into Backlink building

It is absolutely critical that you recognize there are bad websites out there and you will be penalized if they link to your website. You may not have a fancy online SEO tool to tell you which websites you want giving you the thumbs up. So, here are a few tips to help figure out who you want to backlinking to your site.

You do not need SEO help from websites with little to no content. Make sure there is at least 300 words of quality content per web page. You, also, want to read this content to make sure it provides value to its readers. Google may not be able to write reports about a website’s content, but it does recognize keyword stuffing and broken sentences.

Here are 3 Credible Ways to Build Quality External Backlinks for Your Website

    Guest Blogging: This is a fantastic way to get your company name out there and establish good SEO. You will want to find credible websites similar to your niche. For example, if you are a house cleaning service then you could blog for a local moms and dads blog, or child care service explaining about eco-friendly cleaners. Be sure to email the owners directly and offer to blog more than once. Blogging more than once helps to build trust and brand authority within your community.

  2. Press Releases: You might say to yourself, “I’m just an auto mechanic. What news worthy stories do I have?” There a multitude of stories waiting to be written about your company. You could be celebrating your 10,000th fixed car. You could be celebrating 10 years of community service. You may have just donated money to a charity. The point is that all of this and more is news worthy, and there are outlets out there waiting for your local excitement. Some press release services do cost money, and you will have to find someone to write the story. However, it is a guaranteed external backlink from a very credible source.
  3. Open Solicitation: Some SEO Specialists will call this the Broken Link technique. After reviewing websites similar to your niche you may come across a broken link. You can contact the website, let them know you found it, and then casually offer to replace it with yours. Another technique is to openly ask this same website if they would backlink to your website, or a blog they might find interesting. You would want to let them know you would do the same for them. In either case, you are sending an email openly soliciting for help building external backlinks. This is the slowest of the three processes, but it requires no money, and you can use a form letter to solicit multiple websites simultaneously.

Building quality external backlinks will not happen overnight. It is a process that requires diligence and perseverance. Organic SEO Solutions has the tools to research, solicit, and build external backlinks that will build your website’s authority and raise your ranking on search engine results pages.

Balance Your Strong Visual Content With Quality Written Content: SEO Tips for Business Owners

Ignoring Quality Written Content Can Be Devastating to Your Website

Quality Content Goes A Long Way To Convert Clients
Quality Content Goes A Long Way To Convert Clients

Your two most powerful persuasive tools on the internet are quality written content and strong pictures and videos. It’s no secret that the greatest measure of performance for any website is where it ranks on website search engines, and to achieve a high ranking a website has to take many factors into consideration. Finding the balance between visual excitement and informative content is the most important when bridging the gap of technology and online customer interaction.

Visual Content Can Only Tell So Much of the Story

Today’s online consumer expects a lot from their websites, and if they don’t get what they want the back button is a simple click away. Information is the number one reason people sign on to the world wide web with their digital devices. They want to look away from their screens with something more than what they signed on with whether it be new information or the satisfaction of a wise purchase. Flashy, empty, and keyword stuffed content are easily identified by today’s savvy online user.  It doesn’t impress and it certainly doesn’t create repeat website views. Some websites try to over compensate by showcasing endless rolls of pictures to scroll through with no captions, or explanation as to what the website is about. This does little to keep people from finding your competitor or building authority.

Tips to Balance Your Visual Content and Written Content

  1. Write what People Want to Read: As a business owner you have most likely established your primary audience. Keeping that in mind give them information about your product, or events, that they would enjoy sharing with others. Make sure your content engages as well as informs. If you do you will start to see your website metrics improve in lead generation, engagement, click-through-rates, and authority.
  2. Quality Content Grabs New Customers: The only way most people find a company’s online presence with the help of search engines. If you don’t have quality content and are heavy handed with your pictures then the search engines will have no idea what your website is about. Their algorithms are written to process written content with a very heavy percentage. The better the content the better the chances of a search engine matching your website to your ideal clients.
  3. Empty Pictures Sell Nothing: Make sure that your visual content tell a compelling story of your product of services. Consumers need to know exactly what you are selling the instant they lay eyes on your website. You do not need an endless roll of pictures to convince someone to trust your brand. You need quality pictures and videos that concisely tell how you will better your clients’ lives.

Converting someone who browses the internet to a satisfied customer stems from powerfully concise visual images and quality written content. Skimming by on website factors like visual and written content balance costs money and will ultimately give your competition an edge over you.
