They say that the best way to get your message through is by advertising. This holds true in the field of marketing, which covers almost every advertising trick in the book from print and TV ads to sponsored events. But now that the World Wide Web has invaded almost every aspect of the urban life, business entrepreneurs and marketing teams need to start looking into search engine advertising.
Looking at the numbers
Research says that searching for information using search engines is only next to email when it comes to internet user activities. In fact, more than half of U.S. Internet users log on to the net to search for services or products, while approximately 40% of users do their shopping online.
If you`re a business owner looking to improve your company`s performance, take a good long look at these statistics. Availing of search engine advertising can make the difference between a slow business and more business than you can handle.
Pros and no cons
Search engine advertising falls under search engine marketing, but you should not confuse advertising with search engine optimization. Search engine optimization or SEO is when you design your website or write your web content in such a way that your search engine ranking will improve. Many SEO companies will do this for your website for a fee.
However, it is good to try search engine advertising first. Even if you`re already doing optimization, adding another marketing tactic can`t hurt. Most of all, advertising is inexpensive and will let you retouch your ad as much as you want for a low cost. You can make changes every time you introduce a new product, make changes in existing products, open a new store in another location or every time your business is having a discount, sale or promotion.
If performing optimization on your company site is bringing in more customers, just think of how much your business will improve by doing search engine advertising as well.
The old school way
Thinking of what to put in your online advertisement should come easy for you. It will require the same skills that you use in traditional advertising. Put a concise statement that says what your company is all about then put selling points that will appeal to your particular market. Use this chance as well to refer your viewers to the company website.
