Do you want your business to reach out to only a small number of people? If yes, then you are fine ignoring digital technologies and sticking to the old-school marketing methods. But if you want your business to reach a wider audience and have an opportunity to convert more prospects into customers, you may have to ditch the conventional approach.
Internet is the first thing people turn to when they are looking for something these days. So, to reach your internet-savvy target audience, which may form a majority of your prospects, you need to be online.
But search engines bring up thousands of websites in response to each of the queries they get. So taking your business online isn’t enough to compete in the digital world. You have to get found as well from among these websites.
How can businesses get found online? By ranking among the top search results.
Your business website needs to appear on the first two or three search engine result pages to have a higher chance of interacting with and winning online customers. And while it may rank high for the small number of people who know your business by name and search using it, the website might not be able to rank high enough for the more significant majority of your prospects who search, not by your name but by what you offer.
And to interact with this target audience,you need to invest in search engine optimization or “SEO”.
An SEO online marketing strategy is built to adjust various website elements so search engines can rank it when people search for something relevant to what your website offers.
In this way, SEO online marketing techniques help your website get found by people who don’t know you by your name but may still classify as prospects and are likely to turn into customers.
