5. Internet searches start with
typing a word or sentence in an
engine; which keywords can best
describe your product or service?
Google AdWords’ KeywordTool
can help you find high-ranking
words, but get insights with
GoogleTrends.
Step 1: Words are key

6. Use keywords judiciously -
keyword stuffing is
penalised by search engines.
Aside body copy, use
keywords sparingly in
headings, subheadings and
picture captions.

7. Content is still king. Articles,
photos, videos, slide decks,
podcasts, e-books, reports,
white papers, e-newsletters
and infographics all help to
rank your website.

8. Twitter, LinkedIn, Facebook, Instagram and Pinterest
are the main social media platforms.Twitter and
LinkedIn are best for B2B, while Facebook is more
B2C. However, digital divides often blur. Pinterest
and/or Instagram are worth investing time into – a
picture (or infographic) is still worth 1000 words.
9. Sadly 1000s visitors don't equal
1000 customers. Focus on
customers' problems and offer
solutions by leveraging email
marketing.Check local legislation
for email communications and do
include an unsubscribe button.

10. Don’t put your feet up!
New platforms are
constantly created and
online trends come and
go at the speed of
lightning. Check on your
competition. Refresh
your content and
measure your activities
with analytics.
