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.

Breaking Silos To Break Bank: Shattering The Divide Between Search And SocialNavah Hopkins
At Mozcon 2024 I shared this deck on bridging the divide between search and social. We began by acknowledging that search-first marketers are used to different rules of engagement than social marketers. We also looked at how both channels treat creative, audiences, bidding/budgeting, and AI. We finished by going through how they can win together including UTM audits, harvesting comments from both to inform creative, and allowing for non-login forums to be part of your marketing strategy.
I themed this deck using Baldur's Gate 3 characters: Gale as Search and Astarion as Social

We’ve entered a new era in digital. Search and AI are colliding, in more ways than one. And they all have major implications for marketers.
• SEOs now use AI to optimize content.
• Google now uses AI to generate answers.
• Users are skipping search completely. They can now use AI to get answers. So AI has changed everything …or maybe not. Our audience hasn’t changed. Their information needs haven’t changed. Their perception of quality hasn’t changed. In reality, the most important things haven’t changed at all. In this session, you’ll learn the impact of AI. And you’ll learn ways that AI can make us better at the classic challenges: getting discovered, connecting through content and staying top of mind with the people who matter most. We’ll use timely tools to rebuild timeless foundations. We’ll do better basics, but with the most advanced techniques.

27. INSIGHTS
Facebook Likes are Boggus
and Friends are Superficial;
WHERE IS MY ROI???
Users are always ON Twitter
and hungry for content
in almost any genre
I love underground house n techno music & I collect recrods
I also attend parties where my faviorite djs play mostly in willamsburg, brooklyn
I selected tumblr as my primary platform, staying true to the “disocver” objective of this campaign - I wanted to utilize a platform that I hadn’t used before and to leverage its visual power
I used my personal twitter and facebook accounts to drive traffic to my tumblr.
This is an actual image from the early phases of the blog
Initially, when it was time to name the blog and come up with the brand idea – I came up with selector and a blog…
But I had a feeling that selector is not a widely understood term, also it doesn’t go well with the value prop, I also thought the value prop was too long..
So I went out and asked my friends if they knew what selector meant – I got multiple responses “curator, I don’t know, stop bugging me”
A selector is an artufl curator of records..
To solve this problem I turned to social listening and I used a tool called Ice Rocket
Ice rocket runs keyword search’s across blogs and identifies relevant posts – I used key words relevant to my blog and ran a trend analysis to find that the word selector only appeared in 43 blogs per day while the word club appeared in 3500 blogs per day.
Plotting this data, we see a huge difference between the keyword club in yellow and selector in green at the bottom
Indicating a wider audience for the keyword “club” and informing me that selector was not a commonly understood word.
Data can help you make informed decisions but I needed inspiration …moving onto my blog…this image inspired the name club culture and helped simplify the brand idea…”celebrating underground music and culture” – where underground music and culture lives in clubs, art gallieries, warehouses, festivals and all of this across digital and social media.

The growth strategy I created consists of 2 components – audience targeting and content strategy
Including techno, deep house, minmial…different from commerical EDM…a post from a commerical artist like avici could lead to hundreds of reblogs but I choose to post from maceo plex (the guy we saw in the video) and others to stay true to the underground ethos of this blog and cult audiences on tumblr while staying true to the objective of discover.
I ran key word searcsh on ice rocket for house, techno music, clubs and parties – and ice rocket provided a lot of information and I dug through to identify some good sites and blogs where the audience goes to consume information regarding this genre of music…
I utliized a social listening tool called social mention to further dig into audience sentiment about house and techno music and its sources finding 53% strength, 25% passion and 49% reach where the key word house music was being mentioned across social media every 26 seconds per average
The tool also identified twiiter and youtube as popular sources for content relevant to my genre of music. It didn’t discover soundcloud which is also very popular among users.
Further tweet deck helped me identify the users who are talking about this genre of music across twitter and what they are saying and what music they are posting.
Liking, following, sharing, reposting, retweeting, reblogging & commenting on my audience’s content to get their attention and get follows and engagement from them on my content. Mainly doing this around platforms where the content and audience lives on soundcloud, youtube, blogs, twitter and also tumblr.
Setting up google alerts to Keep a look out for the latest content, a podcast, a live session, a record release, sessions growing in views and likes…
Acting in real time…mixmag is a popular house n techno magazine and on a monhtly basis they invite the best djs to their london office for a live session/office party in their studio and stream it live. I acted on this tweeting about it got me retweets and traffic to my blog where I shared this stream.
The greatest way to create impact in social media is to be a participative member of the community, essentially on the content in youtube or soundcloud, people are always looking to find track names or find new content..so being able to provide them with a track name they are looking for, asking for one, or simply leading them to new content on my blog makes me part of their community.
The second component of the growth strategy is the content strategy – this is the content I posted on tumblr.I posted content in real time and also used the neat scheduling feature in tumblr. I posted about djs, bands, the clubs they play in, I posted short films..
Audio content and imagery leveraging the raw power of tumblr which allows you to post multiple media formats.
I optimized the content using hashtag to reach my audience – djs, artists, musicians, fanatiscs..taggin house, techno, culture and also using my own hashtag of club culture.
Over a 2 week period with the challenge of going against a non-commerical genere and utilizing tumblr a “destination” platform I racked up the big 15 in terms of following and 6 organic notes…
Where notes are a form of gauging engagement – including metrics such as likes and reblogs.
I used twitter as a means to drive traffic to my tumblr, unexpectedly the tweets I posted on twitter got a lot more engagement thatn tumblr and from complete strangers – I got 10 new followers, who faviorted and retweeted and shared playlists with me.
I initially launched my campaign on facebook, requesting people to follow, I got several likes from people I havne’t heard from in ages.
I also made a failed attempt to incentivze following on my tumblr through facebook by providing a free download of a mix, to no avail, simply my audience on facebook doesn’t know who matthias mayer is.
As I learned twtter is open for business and is a great platform to run a campaign
Doing some market research and speaking to teens I asked them “where do you find out about your music” and they first said instagram and then sound cloud, when I was growing up I found out about music on tv on mtv, but now artists are increasingly using instagram and soundcloud to attract these digital natives and that’s where the future campaign needs to run, along with merging platforms like mix cloud
Lastly, I would like to apply google analytics to my tumblr to dig deeper into my audience for segmentation purposes – looking at demorgraphic data, traffic sources and behavioral data metrics such as avg time spent on post (to understand what they like vs dislike)
