From Hope to Despair: The Top 10 Reasons Businesses Ditch SEO Tactics
Are you tired of seeing your business's online visibility plummet from hope to despair? When it comes to SEO tactics, many businesses find themselves grappling with challenges that lead them to abandon their strategies altogether. In a digital landscape that's constantly evolving, staying on top of SEO best practices is crucial to maintaining a competitive edge.
In this blog, we delve deep into the top 10 reasons why businesses ditch SEO tactics, uncovering the pain points that may resonate with you:
1. Algorithm Changes: The ever-changing algorithms can leave businesses feeling like they're chasing a moving target. Search engines like Google frequently update their algorithms to improve user experience and provide more relevant search results. However, these updates can significantly impact your website's visibility and ranking if you're not prepared.
2. Lack of Results: Investing time and resources without seeing tangible results can be disheartening. The absence of immediate results often leads businesses to lose faith in their SEO strategies. It's important to remember that SEO is a long-term game that requires patience and consistent effort.
3. Technical Challenges: From site speed issues to complex metadata implementation, technical hurdles can be daunting. Overcoming these challenges is crucial for SEO success, as technical issues can hinder your website's performance and user experience.
4. Keyword Competition: Fierce competition for top keywords can make it hard to rank effectively. Businesses often struggle to find the right balance between targeting high-traffic keywords and finding less competitive, niche keywords that can still drive significant traffic.
5. Lack of Understanding of SEO Basics: Many businesses dive into the complex world of SEO without fully grasping the fundamental principles. This lack of understanding can lead to several issues:
Keyword Awareness: Failing to recognize the importance of keyword research and targeting the right keywords in content.
On-Page Optimization: Ignorance regarding crucial on-page elements such as meta tags, headers, and content structure.
Technical SEO Best Practices: Overlooking essential aspects like site speed, mobile responsiveness, and crawlability.
Backlinks: Not understanding the value of high-quality backlinks from reputable sources.
Analytics: Failing to track and analyze data prevents businesses from optimizing their SEO efforts effectively.
6. Unrealistic Expectations and Timeframe: Entrepreneurs often fall prey to the allure of quick fixes and overnight success. Unrealistic expectations can overshadow the reality of the time and effort needed to see tangible results in the highly competitive digital landscape. SEO is a long-term strategy, and setting realistic goals is crucial for success.

4. First things first:
Why care about social metrics
Prove that you are spending your time and money in the right
efforts
Verify that you are getting a return on investment (i.e.
customer acquisition)
Measure improvements to brand awareness and reach

Nearly half of social media marketers report that measuring
the ROI results of Twitter efforts are their primary challenge*
Do you know how many leads come from your social efforts?
How many likes equal more profit to your bottom line?
How many likes does one plus equal?
Do your customers get value from engaging with you?

6. Don’t start with how to go viral
Set SMART goals for your business
Depending upon your business, viral may not be necessary
to reach your goals
Goals should be SMART: Specific, Measurable, Attainable,
Realistic, Timely
There are two things that will help you do this:
Understanding your customer
The scientific method

@katykatztc #Zenith2014
7. Importance of personas
Before you do
anything you need to
understand your
customer
Your customers are the
essence of your social
network
They should be the
basis of any campaign
you create
Personas are “the
aspect of someone’s
character as perceived
by others”

8. When you understand your customer
You are able to communicate

Be a good listener
Strive for agile response times
Continue the conversation across modalities

13. Start with your purpose
What is your SMART goal?
What are you hoping to achieve from this campaign?
Example of a good purpose:
I want to INCREASE TRAFFIC to my new landing page BY
150% in the NEXT 30 DAYS

Realistic
Measurable

@ katykatztc #Zenith2014
14. Do some background research
This is the part where you verify your goals are actually
achievable and decide how to attain them
Let’s go back to our example: I want to run a Facebook
contest to increase traffic to my new landing page by 150% in the
next 30 days
What social media platform sends the most traffic to your website?
Are there any keywords that resonate with the campaign?
What imagery will resonate with the persona?

15. Be thorough with your research

@katykatztc #Zenith2014
American astronomer Percival Lowell built a telescope in 1894 to
prove that a desperate Martian race had built “a system whose end
and aim is the tapping of the snow-cap for the water there
semiannually let loose; then to distribute it over the planet’s surface.”
All because he read an Italian report about “canali” (actual translation
is channels). -

17. Here is where your ROI comes in
KPIs should work like a hypothesis
Hypotheses are the crown jewel of a scientific experiment.
They are what everything is measured against.
KPI: Key Performance Indicator
Tie your purpose to a measurable business objective.
This is the best way to prove the value of your campaign.
For our example: The Facebook contest will increase traffic to
my new landing page by 150% in the next 30 days and drive 150
new customer leads.

18. Find your baseline
No hot air balloons
Copyright Collegis Education, Inc. Proprietary and Confidential. 18
Again, keep it realistic. 32.8 million retweets is probably
overshooting.
Moz says these KPIs are best:
Traffic data
Fan/follower data
Social interaction data
Social content performance
Finally, tie it in to your objective.
For your users, find out what
shares traffic leads
sales
You can get this from past data

19. Avoid the canali
More ideas for defining KPIs

Consider customer acquisition costs
Community building brand recognition lower barriers to
purchasing
Measure the social media engagement for reporting
Narrow your scope
Identify micro-conversions as goals; i.e. e-book downloads or page
views to a blog
Brand mentions outside your campaign
Loyalty visits

20. Experiment
Execute multivariate campaigns
Test multiple strategies for
your campaign (vary the
color, text, etc. and go
with the winner)
Measure throughout the
process and make
changes
With over 684,478 pieces
of content shared on
Facebook each day, you
have to stand out to your
persona

Compile your results
Track your campaign like a case study
Report the positive and negative outcomes of the campaign
Our old example friend: I used a Facebook sharing contest to
increase traffic to my new landing page by 225% over a 30 day
period and drove 165 new customer leads through the
campaign.
