4 Industries that Need to Prioritize Digital Marketing

/in , , , /by

Although digital marketing is important to utilize for any organization, there are industries in particular where the return on investment (ROI) for a conversion is substantial. A major problem is that many executives within these larger industries aren’t very familiar with the concept of digital marketing and how important it has become. Listed below are four industries that have extremely high ROIs when it comes to digital marketing conversions.

1. Law:
It’s no surprise as to how much money is involved when it comes to the legal industry. The ROI for defense attorneys and law firms is in most cases substantial. However, it was reported by Greentarget in a survey that in 2014 only one in four law firms prioritized their digital marketing plan over other marketing efforts. Although it was three years ago, this statistic is mind boggling due to the high amount of search traffic for law related key phrases. Ultimately, in order to stay on top of competitors a major online presence is needed and digital marketing efforts need to be prioritized.

2. Real Estate:
Just like the legal industry, real estate is another field that can return a high ROI. From agents to real estate companies, having an online presence is becoming more important than ever before. The vast majority of buyers and sellers in the real estate market are all conducting online searches, as housing ads in the newspaper are becoming an afterthought. Therefore, attracting as much online attention as possible is crucial whether it’s homes, condos, or apartments.

3. Health and Medical Practices:
From physicians to dentists, and any other organization involved in the health industry the return on investment from clientele is most often significant. The importance of SEO and SEM to appear on the first page of search results for this industry is huge. The ROI is so substantial that there are some health clinics and larger hospitals that allocate millions of dollars to their advertising budgets. That alone shows the importance of leads and conversions and why digital efforts need to be emphasized.

4. Home Improvement and Repairs:
Implementing a localized content marketing strategy in the home improvement industry can exponentially grow a business. Interior and exterior design, roofing, construction, and any other form of renovation all have potential for high profit margins. Appearing on the first page of search results through either SEO or SEM for your location is huge. For example, if you’re a roofing company in Chicago, appearing on the first page of search results for phrases like “Chicago roofing” or “Roofing services in Chicago” should be a priority.

Contact Us: At Onimod Global we currently work with clientele within some of these industries and know what it takes to deliver ROI for our clients. If you’re associated with a business seeking improvements with SEO, SEM, Website Development, or any other digital service feel free to reach out to us on our Contact Us page.

Micro-Wins: The Key to AdWords Success

/in , , , , , /by

There are plenty of articles out there claiming to have some sort of quick fix or tip to exponentially boost your AdWords campaigns. In certain case studies these hints may have actually been incredibly successful, but that doesn’t mean the same goes for every advertiser or every business. In reality, micro-wins are much more valuable and much more attainable by most digital marketers.

 

What Are Micro-Wins?

Micro-wins are a series of tiny improvements over a long course of time, sort of like a theory of evolution on an AdWords campaign. These changes may not look like much in the beginning, but when compiled together at the end of a year, they make a very large impact.

 

Exploration

Hundreds upon hundreds of trial and error attempts are the secret to achieving these micro-wins. It’s best to begin by trying a myriad of strategies, so as not to limit your campaign based on what you think you already know. Experiment, it’s okay to fail! This is how you determine what works and what definitely does not.

 

Refinement

Once you can see where the biggest potential lies, start trimming off the fat. Take away all of the failed experiments, and all the money they’re draining, and leave those that still hold some potential for the future.

 

Optimization

Start experimenting again. Weed out the best of the best in terms of advertisements by thinking outside of normal limitations. Do not be afraid to try something new because you can always change it later on if needed. Once completed, you’ll be left with only the highest achieving and most successful ads.

Similar items: Rich products feature on Google Image Search

/in /by

Image Search recently launched “Similar items” on mobile web and the Android Search app. The “Similar items” feature is designed to help users find products they love in photos that inspire them on Google Image Search. Using machine vision technology, the Similar items feature identifies products in lifestyle images and displays matching products to the user.

Julia E, product manager on Google Image Search, announced on the Google search blog that you need to use schema.org product metadata on your pages and schema.org/Product markup to make sure your products are eligible for inclusion on these image results. Specifically:

  • Ensure that the product offerings on your pages have schema.org product markup, including an image reference. Products with name, image, price & currency, and availability meta-data on their host page are eligible for Similar items.
  • Test your pages with Google’s Structured Data Testing Tool to verify that the product markup is formatted correctly.
  • See your images on image search by issuing the query “site:yourdomain.com.” For results with valid product markup, you may see product information appear once you tap on the images from your site. It can take up to a week for Googlebot to recrawl your website.
