UID 2015 Presentation - Online Marketing - Where's it going? How to win.Brian Bluff
Since the late 1990’s, manufacturers and distributors have witnessed a tremendous change in marketing technology (search, social, email, etc.). Those that embraced the change have reaped the rewards, and those that ignored it struggle to exist.
But now, this technology, which provided early adaptors a leg up, has changed again and many manufacturers and distributors have seen their hard fought gains evaporate.
Today Google’s ranking preference for big brands and sites with rich high-quality content, coupled with the social platforms tightening up of organic (non-paid) reach in pursuit of viable “pay for play” revenue models favor large sites/companies and threatens the traditional distributor model.
Building a simple website and tweeting a few times does not constitute a good online strategy. Today online marketing is traditional marketing, strategy is more important than ever, and developing a solid comprehensive plan is the way forward. But where is it all going? When does marketing revolution become evolution?
This session will explore where we are now, what’s coming next, and how to prepare your company to compete in 2015 and beyond. You’ll learn what content prospects and customers want, how to measure success, and how to get started.

7. Google’s Move to Secure Search
Intent vs Keywords
15% of daily keywords haven’t been seen before
What users mean versus what they say.
Content that people are interested in and serves a need. Not content
formulated around keywords.
@JordanKasteler
“People communicate with each other by conversation, not by typing
keywords — and we’ve been hard at work to make Google understand and
answer your questions more like people do.”
– Amit Singhal, Head of Google Search
August 2013
9. Google’s Move to Secure Search
@JordanKasteler
Why is Google encrypting searches?
Provides users with increased security as search becomes more
customizable.
Sets and continues to follow industry standards for security.
Industry professional speculation: Pushes marketers to rely more on
Google PPC for search optimization.
Think about keywords less and intent more.
10. How SEOs Have Adjusted
Persona Development
Site Search
Landing Page Traffic & Engagement Analysis
@JordanKasteler

Research-oriented with implied conversion action
Example: XYZ vs ABC
Transactional
10% of search volume
Explicit intent to complete a conversion action
Example: buy an XYZ
14. @JordanKasteler
How SEOs Have Adjusted – Search Intent
Keyword-Based Optimization
Optimization Action: Incorporate keyword
“XYZ” into page copy and important on-page
elements.
Intent-Based Optimization

and questions users are looking to answer when
searching for “XYZ” and create content to address
the user’s needs on the targeted landing page.
