Today, Search Engine Marketing is recognized to be
one of the most cost effective methods for
connecting your potential customers with you.
In a traditional advertising campaign, you put a
advertisement in front of masses. Here, the process
is reversed. The ready buyers are already
“SEARCHing” for a new company they want to do
business with. They are typing in their Search Terms
in Search Engines. If they are looking for what you
are offering, your listing will show up. The beauty
of this program is that you only pay a
pre-determined amount only if someone finds your
site and clicks on it. This is also known as
“Pay-per-click”
advertising. It is offered by Google, Yahoo, MSN and
other engines.
We have specialized expertise, tools and techniques
that enable us to continuously monitor performance
and optimize the bid amounts to deliver qualified
visitors to your site at a cost that makes business
sense.
We start with key phrases that your potential
customers might be using to search on the Internet.
You will start off the process by suggesting such
Search terms that are relevant to your business. For
each of these keywords, we will do a statistical
analysis using our tools, and come up with an
optimum bid amount for each. We then create and
customize all search listings for each of the key
phrases, monitor results, adjust listings and bids
on a continuous basis for optimal performance and
review with you periodically.
You will evaluate our performance based on your
success:
|
How many new customers/transactions were
generated because of this Search Advertising?
|
|
How much did it cost to generate these new
customers/transactions?
|
If you have used this program before, you will
appreciate the benefits that a professional company
like ours can offer by proper set up of listings and
by monitoring bid amounts. You know how easy it is
spend large sums of money on Google Adwords, Yahoo
Overture and MSN Ad-Center without getting
corresponding increase in new
customers/transactions.
Our experts will optimize
your campaign performance by focusing on the “cost
per conversion”. This involves :
-
Eliminating keywords
(or reduce bid amounts) that bring visitors but not
enough conversions
-
Adding search terms that may be less popular but
highly relevant, judicious use of options
like Broad Search, Phrase Search, Exact search
-
Aufixed fixed positioning
-
Content ads
-
Partner network ads
-
Geographic Targetting
-
Time of the day
and Day of the week options
-
Appropriate landing pages
|
and many other variables.
We practice this as
a “science”. Results are measured constantly and
adjustments made based on scientific measurements.
While we look at many variables in fine tuning the
campaign, ultimate goal is to increase the number of
“conversions” and reduce the “cost per conversion”
(Definition of “conversion” is based on your
business. It can be a sale transaction, or
acquisition of a customer or acquisition of a lead
or whatever measure is most appropriate.)
Lastly, we consider the entire Search Engine
Advertising as part of an overall Search Marketing
Strategy. In the long term, we will minimize these
costs by redirecting our efforts to Organic Search
Engine optimization for certain selected Keywords
(generally, these are the keywords on which the most
money is being spent).
We will “measure up” way above our competition! The
fees that you will pay us will be a small fraction
of the benefits you will reap from our specialized
expertise.
