17. SEO: Google Gets Up in Yo’ Grill
• Where Are You?
• Who Do You Talk To
Online?
• What Else Do You Look At
on the Web? (Hmm.. That
could get ugly)
Example: Asana is a task management system I use. Instant results show it’s most commonly associated with yoga. But my search
history shows I want asana.com, so it comes up first before yoga or even Wikipedia.

Which browser do you use? How many of you use Google? How many use Bing? How many have EVER used Bing?
Ok, now that you have a little context on a Bing user, when would you want to pay attention to Bing? Corporate, old peeps.
87% of Bing users are on IE browsers: means they are over 35, have children, more likely less tech savvy, more blue collar than white
Along with Online services division (msn, Bing…), lost over $11 billion since 2005, $1.3 billion in 2013 alone.

Link-metric based: Links are a sign of a relationship, just like we form links online through social media, through exchanging phone numbers, through spending time together. Online linking is a website’s way of doing that.
Hang out with the wrong crowd as a high-school kid, you get in trouble. Get links to your site on the wrong websites, you also get in trouble.
Content: copyscape.com – Lawton-digital copyscape rpt pulls up my profile’s testimonial dup content.
Technical: Look at an example, http://www.denverpost.com/ and http://www.du.edu/ DU’s site. Could also use Chicago Tribune for slow.
Everyone talks, everyone now talks online. Google tries to capture that conversation and use it to determine relevancy.
(ask, when its time to pick a restaurant for dinner and you’re ready for something new, where do you go to find it? How many go to Google? How about Yelp? Any others?)
Twitter, LinkedIn, Facebook, Google + , Instagram, O.M.G. the list doesn’t end…
-Does anyone remember what PPC stands for?
Google is a business, so the paid search ad must be relevant.
I was trying to be a good wife, and after cutting the cable cord to save money, I was looking for a way for my husband to watch Bronco games. After I checked out NFL Rewind, they followed me around the Internet with ads like this.
Bid based on keywords, or content placement on relevant sites.
One blog post, 3 different companies stalking me.
What should we take in to consideration as markters with retargeting? Are there products that aren’t appropriate for retargeting?
Ask: Who knows what engagement metrics are? Can anyone name a metric that could show that a visitor is engaged? (pages per visit, time on site, bounce rate)
For brand, dominate by targeting both.
For non-brand, supplement one another. Experiment with paid to inform SEO, use paid when SEO is down for an important term.
