Local Internet Marketing Company in Phoenix Caters To Small Business

business
Local GoldMine a Local Internet Marketing company announces Local SEO for the little guy! In today's struggling economy many small business owners are looking into the benefits of local Internet Marketing. Unfortunately, many small business owners are also falling prey to unscrupulous Local Internet marketing consultants that do not have their best interests at heart. The truth is, local search is so new that many local SEO companies are new to the industry and do not have the skills or knowledge to take their local business to the top of Google.

Another major problem for the really small businesses is that many local Internet marketing companies are not interested in taking on clients that do not have huge marketing budgets, leaving most small businesses with no where to turn. The fact is, most local businesses do not need to pay thousands of dollars for SEO to rank high in a local market for the right keywords.

Phoenix based Local Internet Marketing company Local GoldMine is filling that void nicely. With over 15 years of search engine marketing experience they have a solid knowledge of what it takes to achieve top Google rankings in local markets and want the really small businesses turned down or over priced by SEO companies to receive the same quality SEO the big guys are getting.

Local Goldmine Founder and 15 year search engine marketing specialist Jeffrey Taylor explains, "We talk with small business owners everyday, and it seems that if they don't have a huge budget, nobody wants to help them. This is a shame because in most cases they do not need a lot of local SEO to reach page 1 of the Google local results. It is usually as simple as redesigning their website, optimizing their local business listings, and building a solid local presence in their market area."

Getting the most from your online marketing budget


SEO or search engine optimization has become the heart and soul of the Internet marketing industry and many Canadian MSPs and VARs are looking at Search Optimization as part of their overall online marketing strategy.

Each and every reseller or service supplier wants to be on the top of search engine results page (SERP). This has created a need for search engine optimizers who alter and optimize the Web sites in such a manner that they become search engine friendly and bring in traffic and revenue to the organizations.

Like any competitive field of business, SEO hasn’t escaped from the hands of crooks and ne’er-do-wells who make tall claims on search engine optimization. It is main for you to detect such frauds before you assign them an optimization job. Here are a few tips which will help you in sorting a fraud SEO service provider from a real one:

Guaranteed Ranking: The only people who can guarantee you a ranking are search engines like Google, Yahoo, and Bing but the fact is none of them do SEO! Not even the top ten optimizers in the world in the world can guarantee you a ranking so never fall for such tall claims.

Quick results: Good SEO is a time-consuming process. It takes time to organically rank a Web site high. It takes at least a month to effectively reflect growth after optimization. So stay away from catchy claims like ‘First page ranking in 15 days’. ‘Guaranteed results in 7 days.’

Too-Good-To-Be-True Rates: ‘Quality never comes cheap.’ If you choose the wrong SEO service provider, it can be an exercise in futility costing you time and money. The Internet is a great tool to search for market-standard rates. Do not go to optimizers who quote unbelievably low rates.

Black Hat Techniques: There are lot of unethical techniques for getting your Web site higher ranking on the Web. The down side of this is such practices might invite permanent penalty from the search engines and prove detrimental for your Web site. Make sure your optimizer doesn’t use black hat techniques for optimization.

Secret and Proprietary: As the owner of the Web site, you are entitled to know what are the exact optimization techniques that your Web site is going through. In case any service provider denies you the information citing secrecy and proprietary information, it is advisable to stay away from them.

Technical Brainstorming: If your SEO service provider is bombarding you with technological terms and high end techniques it is most likely that he/she is poor with the application of what business is looking for. Good optimizers seldom talk in technical language with their clients and fake optimizers might want to hide their lack of knowledge with such terminology. The old ‘dazzle them with BS’ truism comes to mind.

Balancing SEO with online marketing content

Online retailers require to balance marketing elements with proper search engine optimization (SEO) techniques.

This pertains to online consumer behavior. Browsers generally click the top ranking sites for their desired queries. Once they’ve been redirected to the link, they get little time to read the text. In fact, when they see lengthy text blocks, their first instinct is to hit back.

This is where the balance comes in handy. Good SEO will get you to the top of the rankings. But, if the site relied on huge blocks of text to get there, then it probably won’t convert into a sale.

The key here is to be more visual than textual. Craft a page design that’s appealing to the eye with minimal—but compelling—amounts of ad copy.

Of course, none of this is full-proof. You have to study your goal market’s behavior to develop the best internet marketing strategy for your business. Try it out!

The Future of Online Marketing Is Here

Marketing is highly important to every kind of business. It is important to make sure that your business is getting the recognition that it deserves as well as making sure enough people are able to learn about your company for you to grow. What many have already found is it is possible to grow as long as there is a focus on online marketing. While SEO and PPC programs are still very big throughout the web, there are more people than ever subscribing to social networks like Facebook and Twitter.

The reason why so many companies have been finding their place on the social networking sites is because of the ability to reach out to clients in a very organic way. It is not forced to gain attention from clients when you are simply making general announcements about the company and the things you are doing. Those who are into your company will be sure to follow your company online and they will surely get their friends involved as well. There are a few reasons why this advertising method is such a winner for so many different kinds of companies.

The price is right

One of the greatest things about marketing via Facebook or Twitter is that you do not have to have a huge budget. Both of the services are free to sign up for. The only thing it costs you is your time. Creating posts and tweets does not even take that much time to accomplish. Usually the job for social network marketing will fall to one person in the company and even then, it will be a part time responsibility. There are very few companies which invest a lot into these kinds of marketing strategies, yet there are big payoffs for the work you put into them.

Go to where the clients are

Marketing is very much like real estate in that location is everything. There is a natural link between where you market your company and the response you will get from your marketing methods. The best idea is to simply go to where the people you are trying to reach congregate at. Doing so will make it where you will be seen by those you are trying to reach. Since the majority of young, fresh clients with disposable income are on Facebook and Twitter, it is the location where more companies want to make sure they appear.

Access to all

One of the dilemmas companies have to face online is what kind of device they will make their websites geared towards. Having to choose between a regular computer, an iPhone and an iPad is enough to make any company nervous. The good news about marketing through Facebook and Twitter is they have done all of the hard work for you. Your information can be accessed by all through any device which has the ability to view the different social networking sites. This will make it where your company is viewable to all those you are looking reach no matter where they might be.

Search Engine Marketing Tips for B2C Marketers


Best described as the Yellow Pages of the 21st century, Search Engine Marketing (SEM) is currently recognized as the highest performing marketing medium available for B2C businesses. SEM is an aggressive method to target prospective customers who are actively seeking a particular product or service in real time. Put yourself in the customer’s shoes and ask, “where would I look first?” More than likely, your answer is a search engine.

This is why the importance of paid search is insurmountable for any consumer business. When it comes to online marketing, paid search has the ability to put a company’s advertisement directly in front of the right audience, rather than rely on the search engine to decide how a company should rank on the organic listing.

However, in order for an SEM campaign to be successful, there must be the right knowledge, time and industry expertise in place. Here are a few tips for B2C businesses to keep in mind if they are planning to implement an SEM campaign into their marketing budget:

Tools and Reports - Whether a business has someone in house specifically hired for SEM services or has hired an SEM firm, make sure the right tools and reports are in place to monitor the campaign’s performance. Also, make sure the person in charge of your campaign knows how to interpret and use these tools.

Industry Expert s- Along the same premise as above, it is important to have an SEM expert optimizing the campaign, considering the campaign will be competing against other industry professionals whose sole purpose is search engine marketing. Ensure there is enough experience, knowledge, and focus backing any online marketing effort.

Keyword Selection - When selecting keywords, remember to include words people would use to search for the product, including misspellings. The less competitive the keyword, the lower the cost per click.

Online Marketing Excellence Launches New Website for Online Learning

om Aikins, founder of the Online Marketing Excellence training course, announced today the launch of a website that allows consumers to purchase the course and access the 60 video segments that present the course’s information. The site address is http://www.seonorthamerica.com.

Online Marketing Excellence was developed over a two-year period of research and development and was designed in particular to assist small business owners in creating more traffic for their companies’ websites. Unlike many other online marketing and SEO training courses, Online Marketing Excellence was created for people who have limited or no knowledge of how internet marketing works. It was really designed for beginners and does not assume that the users of the course have prior knowledge of online marketing.

Also, the course material is presented completely in video format with most of the video segments showing users how to do things step-by-step using computer screen capture software. Users are shown exactly where to go, where to click and how to use SEO and online marketing techniques in a simple easy-to-follow manner.

According to Aikins, "This course will allow anyone to easily master the techniques and methods that are needed to successfully drive traffic to a website. The concepts are easy to learn and our site offers users unlimited usage for a whole year for only $379 for the entire course. Individual modules can be purchased for $44. Because usage is unlimited, employers can have as many of their staff learn from the course as they want. And, new videos will be added to the existing 60 each week so that users can keep up with new developments as they happen in this fast-moving industry."

The course is broken up into 10 modules with each module containing 4-8 video segments. Module titles include Introduction To Online Marketing, Keywords, Creating Content, Posting Content Online, The Importance Of Video, Using Blogs, Link Building, Using Facebook , Google Analytics And Places, Google And Facebook Pay-Per-Click.

By covering all of these topics the course presents to users all of the methods and techniques that are needed to be successful at online marketing. The overall emphasis of the course is on showing small business owners how to market their bricks and mortar businesses on the internet. It is not for people looking to make money only from a website business. Another key segment of potential users of the course is people who are looking for training so that they can work in the online marketing industry which is one of the fastest growing in the world.

Online Marketing Excellence is presented in English but there are written transcripts of each segment available also beneath each video that are in Spanish, French and German. Other languages to be added soon include Arabic, Portuguese and Russian. And, other sites will be added in other areas of the world.

Founder Tom Aikins is a sales and marketing expert with over 30 years experience and spent 27 years in the magazine publishing industry. He supervised the launch or re-launch of 11 publications covering both consumer and trade segments. He has concentrated on online activities for the last five years and regularly presents short seminars on online marketing.
