Marketing Ideas for Your Business

This may sound rather basic, but you can find lots of helpful marketing ideas on the Internet.

researching on her laptopSearch the Internet for online marketing and digital marketing, and also for the product or service that you offer on your website to find:

  • infographics, memes, articles, and lists
  • bulletin boards and forums

The more you research, the more helpful information you will find. Don’t just copy and paste or plagiarize!  Often, you can find information that will spark ideas for a new advertising campaign, maybe a fresh outlook for the content about the product or service you offer, or a different application for your product or service, or find businesses to collaborate with for mutual benefit.

The main thing to remember is that you need to keep learning. You can’t expect the marketing ideas on the website that you built (or had built) five years ago to take care of you forever. Website maintenance – updating and adding new and interesting articles, checking for broken links, backing up your data files – that stuff is important. You need to keep up with what is changing in your part of the business world. Don’t get left behind.

Make it a habit to do a little marketing ideas research for your own benefit each day. Take notes of things you find interesting and each week. Then review your findings and decide which ones merit action and which ones are just good to know.

And the next time you socialize, either on the internet or “live and in person” you’ll also have some interesting information to share with your peers.

Is your small business website getting you the results you need? Do you get lots of website visitors, but very few people contacting you? Or do you get very few visitors to your website, and are baffled by your lack of visitors? Often Jax SEO Works can take a look at a website and make recommendations for several changes that could result in better responses from your website visitors.

Backlinks Help Your Website

Backlinks are hyperlinks back to your website from other websites.

backlinks to your website help bring more visitorsYou want your website to be ranked highly by search engines, so your site will be found on the first few search engine pages, and then visited.

How many other websites link to your website (how many backlinks you have) is one of the ways search engines evaluate the popularity of your website.

And backlinks from related websites (topics that are pertinent or similar to your website’s topic or could be connected to your website’s topic) are better than large numbers of links from unrelated sites.

    • Example: if your site is Bob’s Tree Service, you would want backlinks from chainsaw vendors and nurseries more than a link from a roller skating arena, but it is better to exchange links with fellow business partners in your community than not.

Anchor text (the words the reader sees in the hyperlink) are important to your readers and search engines, too.  Put descriptive words for readers to click on and search engines to followMake sure your readers see a connection from the anchor text words they clicked on to the page they reach (or they will think they were tricked and leave).

Social Media Can Help Promote Your Local Small Business.

Get the New Year off to a Great start by getting your business involved in Social Media Marketing.

Small Business Saturday - logoLike Li Evans shared in an article on local small businesses and Social Media Marketing on Search Engine Watch, “Small businesses have some huge advantages in social media over the Walmarts of the world. . . have a much easier time personally connecting with their audience because, more likely than not, they know the majority of them personally.

Those personal connections make it much easier to build your communities in social media sites . . . . People readily become your fan, recommend you to other local friends, and tag and submit their own photos that help promote your local business.”

Find out more in Li’s YouTube video:

Getting your business involved in Social Media Marketing may seem new and intimidating. But it can be easier than you think.  More social connections allow you to build a broad base of trust in you, your business, and your products or services. That base of trust can mean more customers for your business.

There is one thing that you DO NOT want to do with your business social media outreach. Don’t only share information with the intent to sell your product or service. Sell, Sell, Sell gets old. Better to “mix it up”. Share positive information of general interest to the local public (if you are a small, local business) from time to time.
