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.

22. *Formed in October 2001 as a 50/50 joint venture
between Japan- based consumer electronics maker
Sony and Sweden-based Ericsson.
* Sony Ericsson (market a line of co-developed
cellular phones) = Sony’s expertise in developing
popular gadgets + Ericsson’s cellular technology
23. *60 actors took the streets of 10 cities.
*Focused on tourist attractions like The Empire State
Building in New York, the Space Needle in Seattle, etc.
*Supposed to say, “Excuse me, you mind taking a picture
of us?” asks one fake tourist, handing over the gadget to
the person. Later, responding to the favor in way like,
“Thanks a lot, man. It’s cool, right?”
*Then, explained some phone’s features.
*This operation – brainchild of John Maron, Sony
Ericsson’s Marketing Director.
24. *Sony Ericsson responds to
those who opposed the idea,
that most consumers won't be
offended. "How many times
do people that you don't know
come up to you and talk to
you?" asks John Maron.
*"It's very natural, especially in
a club or restaurant." He adds
that the actors will confess that
they work for the company if
they are asked directly.
25. *60 actresses and female models with extensive
training in the phone's features.
*Target: trendy lounges & bars.
*Got scripted scenarios like:
- phone rings & caller’s picture pops up on the
screen.
- 2 women sit at opposite ends of the bar playing an
interactive version of the Battleship game on their
phones.
26. *Due to technical difficulties in past, which led to
bad brand sentiment on their facebook page.
* To overcome this a live online experiment “
Xperia Social Xperiments” was created with
comedian; Tommy Little
*Locked in a room with just Xperia & a live video
link
*GOAL: Within 8 hrs, has to get maximum
possible people like him on FB, by doing
whatever he was asked to do.
27. *Challenges: rap, wax legs, etc.
*Sounds silly, but did gain
public attention.
*Received over 850 challenges
in a day, 1000s followed the
activity, gained 1500+ likes.
*Users were incentivized with
prizes.
*People engaged & had fun with
the brand. This was a well
executed campaign.

29. Microsoft, inc. is a multinational company that develops a
wide range of software products.
The most profitable products are the Microsoft Windows
operating system.
The company was founded in 1975 by Bill Gates and Paul
Allen.
Microsoft has been the largest software company in the world
for at least 8 years in a row.
30. *Xbox One is a video game console
developed and marketed by Microsoft.
*Announced on May 21, 2013, it is the
successor to the Xbox 360 and is the
third console in the Xbox family.
*It directly competes with Sony's
PlayStation 4.
*Xbox One was released across North
America, several European markets,
Australia, and New Zealand on
November 22, 2013, and is scheduled
for release in Japan and the remaining
European markets in 2014.
31. Microsoft is paying
bloggers on YouTube
gaming channel
Machinima for featuring
Xbox in their video
updates.
The video producers get
paid extra for including 30
seconds of Xbox One
game footage and
mentioning the Xbox One
with the tag “XB1M13”.
32. *Microsoft has signed a secret deal with the Machinima video games
network in which Microsoft will pay people an extra $3 per
thousand video views above Machinima's normal payments.
*Main part of the agreement :
1. "You may not say anything negative or disparaging about
Machinima, Xbox One or any of its Games in your Campaign
Video;
2. "You must feature at least thirty seconds (:30) of gameplay/footage
of any Xbox One game within the first 2 minutes of Campaign
Video
3. "You must verbally mention that you are playing the game shown
on the Xbox One console."
33. Though it’s a very unique strategy but in my view,
Microsoft is misleading the audience by purposely
making the bloggers post videos for the sake of the
monitory gain.
Microsoft's motive was to compete with Sony’s
PlayStation 4 by marketing and advertising the
Xbox One by the Undercover Marketing technique.
34.
35. *The campaign may fall afoul of FTC guidelines designed to let people
know when endorsements are being paid for.
*Where the Microsoft campaign might fall into trouble is the section
regarding "Disclosure of material connections." (Part 255.5 of section
5 of the the FTC Act)
*That section says in part that “When there exists a connection between
the endorser and the seller of the advertised product that might
materially affect the weight or credibility of the endorsement...such
connection must be fully disclosed.”
*The Microsoft deal seem to violate the FTC guidelines. Microsoft
denies any violation. But whether or not the agreement violates the
guidelines, it's still wrong.
*When people see YouTube content not associated with an advertiser,
they don't expect it to be influenced by an advertiser. Microsoft's
paying people to post videos of Xbox One games and not say anything
negative about the Xbox One is clearly undue influence.
48. *Let’s take an example of a website that sells weight loss
pills.
*This site might create a few other sites such as discussion
boards about weight loss pills, a forum, a review site, a
comparison site, and a blog.
*These sites don’t say buy X product, but the way that the
content is formulated and structured will hint at which
pill is the most valuable and best to use.
*As long as it does not get spammy, this is a good way to
use stealth marketing on the internet.

55. *During the year 2008-09, the Corporation achieved a total
income of Rs. 618.77 Crores as compared to Rs. 527.66 Crores
in 2007-08 thereby registering a growth of 17.30 %. The
increase was achieved in spite of the fact that bed roll and
cleaning business has been transferred back to Railways. The
major increase in the income in the year 2008-09 over
previous year was achieved due to licensee catering (from Rs.
289.20 Crores to Rs. 341.02 Crores), quantum jump in internet
ticketing (from Rs. 39.18 Crores to Rs.74.81 Crores) and
tourism activities (from Rs. 9.72 Crores to Rs. 27.94 Crores).
*The income of licence catering increased on account of higher
number of units put on tender, efficient tendering system and
increase in licence fee from static units. Quantum jump in
internet ticketing was witnessed due to good marketing
efforts, upgraded infrastructure and improved customer care.
The growth in tourism business was achieved due to IRCTC's
foray into educational tour business, tour package business
take over of Bharat Darshan trains by IRCTC.

The viral sites helped Cloverfield to a $40m

Artificial Intelligence (2001)
Spielberg’s android epic took the viral phenomenon one step
further with the introduction of an ARG (alternate reality
game) nicknamed ‘The Beast. TV shows like Lost and Heroes
have since inspired effective ARGs; ;(while the movies
didn’t produce another real success until a certain ‘Why So
Serious' campaign).
