There must be at least 150 tasks a webmaster can do to manage the visibility of a website, but by meeting search industry standards and performance benchmarks, a business website has a much better chance to capitalize on the advanced strategies and tactics for search engine optimization, SEO.
- Web Presence (URL registration, business profiles, directory listings, site registrations, citations, site links)
- Content Marketing (Keywords research, on page SEO, off page SEO, schema, blogs, social media syndication)
- Analytics & Reporting (complete tracking of all digital media, optimized ad spends for digital media)
Crawl before you walk, then run!
Make sure your website has a solid foundation before you expand too fast with Internet marketing. A PPC ad campaign, for example, that’s run without proper landing page configurations, for new customer contacts and conversions, is like launching an inbound content marketing strategy for a website that is slow or hard to view on a mobile device.
