Online marketing agency

An Overview Of How Online Marketing Agencies Have Changed! Copyright 2010 Bilmar Marketing Inc. The modern day online marketing agency has changed over the last 3 years. A online marketing company used to only offer a few services and there was not much competition on a local level. But with the growth of the internet and popular internet marketing guides teaching marketers to market locally things have changed. New growing marketing platforms have become mainstream forcing more knowledge out of online marketing agencies. Now they need to have knowledge of social media positioning, dynamic media buy platforms, mobile marketing, local level marketing and of course keeping up with what still works for search engine optimization services. It is not as easy as it once was, spammers and abusers ruin once viable online properties in the quest for quick short term rankings in competitive markets. Many factors have forced change from advertising agencies to stay competitive in this field. What are some online marketing services you should expect from the modern day online marketing agency? Traffic Generation- In the end the most important online marketing service a online marketing agency can offer is sources of driving traffic. Every good marketing company has their own black book of how to accomplish effectively driving traffic for clients. There are too many ways to list them all out but traffic generation tops my list for most important. I will tell you why, I could be at the top of the search engines for various keywords but there is no guarantee that I will get traffic from that. I know that many figure it is safe to assume to trust traffic reporting on keywords but the number of searches changes daily and no keyword research tool can be 100% accurate. In the end traffic sent to a well optimized web page equals more customers, sales, opt-ins etc. Search Engine Optimization- Search engine optimization is the backbone of most marketing campaigns. Reason is that it usually does not get you immediate traffic but is a service that takes longer to see results from. Most SEO consultants will focus on one competitive keyword, one semi- competitive keyword and then one lower competition keyword to start.

Through use of keyword research tools SEO companies can accomplish this task. Also gathering around 50-100 “low lying fruit” I call the low competition keywords. They serve their purpose for your web pages. Once agreed search engine result page positioning is gained on those keywords then SEO consultants move to the next keywords and so on. Now there are many universal on page and off page optimization factors that SEO's use but most techniques they use is kept secret. In the end as long as you are moving up in the SERPS via white hat marketing techniques that is fine. Social Media Marketing- This is a strategy that can get you traffic immediately. Social media has just become REALLY popular over I would say the last 16 months or less. With social networking kings like Facebook, Twitter and Youtube it has become a main staple in any marketing campaign. I have seen facebook fan page traffic accounting for over 50% of website traffic. When traffic is filtered and pages are optimized it leads to more sales. I have seen so many different techniques in social media planning work I could write a book about it. With this new form of online marketing hitting the scene it has left many online marketing companies in the dark on what will truly work for your business and that is why many of them do not offer extensive services for social media marketing. Website Development & Design- this service covers a vast area of online marketing campaigns. This is the development of new web pages, websites, logo work, website designing and redesigning. This service can stem into the creation of landing pages, squeeze pages, lead generation pages and mini sites. This includes creating viral features within the page, using new modern designing techniques to make it appealing and of course validate the coding for all browsers. Having experience working with content management systems, different forum software, html static page development is a must as well experience with differnet integration for bigger sites involving ecommerce and shopping pages, api integration, use of social media user accounts across multiple features integration and corporate level website development sets apart a well experienced website development company from those that are not. Mobile Marketing- This type of service covers a few different things.

First it can be the use of mobile vehicle billboard marketing or advertising, vinyl decaling mobile vehicles and lastly marketing to mobile phones via sms text and ppc. The use of mobile vehicle marketing has become increasing popular with very high outcomes. The use of marketing SMS text has become increasingly effective with better tracking and the use of short codes becoming more accpeted by comsumers. The average open rate for text messages is over 90%, where as email open rate is said to be below 20%. The newest for of mobile marketing is mobile pay per click, pay per call and the use of mobile optimized landing pages and websites. The use of mobile phone apps on giants like android and iphone are increasing in popularity as well. Other services you may see the modern day online marketing agency offer are ppc management, media buying experience, email marketing, list management services, event marketing, viral campaign marketing, research and analysis services and interactive marketing. Each of the services listed above hold unlimited power when strategically used.
