Notas do Editor
- people are actively avoiding marketing messages, and it shows in marketing effectiveness…
- Today people are hit with 3,000 brand messages each day. Technology enables them to escape and seek out content they love without being interrupted.
- Why did we create Skyword? We, as marketers, strive to get our brand to stand out and get into the purchase consideration set. But it’s getting harder to break out through modern media
- Shift in strategy is needed.
- Stories build brands. Always have, always will.
- First, let’s start with a few myths.
- But, there’s no doubt that it has changed dramatically. I’ve been involved in search marketing for more than a decade. And, in the past three years, I’ve seen some very fundamental shifts in what it takes to achieve higher rankings, more traffic and more conversions.
- Of course, that couldn’t last. Google released some updates to change how they ranked sites. Their mission is relevance. And, they thought that the deluge of spammy content and links were hurting users. Which it was. So, they cleaned house. They started punishing sites that had “bad” links. And, nearly overnight, brands large and small that had been using these tactics found their visibility dramatically reduced.
- Links still matter, but how you get them – how you earn them, has fundamentally changed how marketers should think about SEO in 2013 and beyond.
