Post-Click Marketing For Search Marketers

At SMX West earlier this month, Gordon Hotchkiss of Enquiro unequivocally declared that post-click marketing moves the needle for their clients more than any other aspect of search marketing. So what exactly is post-click marketing and how can you leverage it in your search marketing program?

Data: What are the Benefits of Social Media Marketing?

Looking to make the case for why your organization or clients should be using social media marketing? A survey last month, highlighted today in eMarketer, outlines the benefits that marketing executives cite as reasons to embrace the medium:

Global Advertising: Consumers Trust Real Friends and Virtual Str

Recommendations from personal acquaintances or opinions posted by consumers online are the most trusted forms of advertising, according to the latest Nielsen Global Online Consumer Survey of over 25,000 Internet consumers from 50 countries. Ninety percent or consumers surveyed noted that they trust recommendations from people they know, while 70 percent trusted consumer opinions posted online. "The explosion in Consumer Generated Media over the last couple of years means consumers' reliance on word of mouth in the decision-making process, either from people they know or online consumers they don't, has increased significantly," says Jonathan Carson, President of Online, International, for the Nielsen Company." However, in this new age of consumer control, advertisers will be encouraged by the fact that brand websites are trusted at that same 70 percent level as online consumer opinions.
Today's economic turmoil is tightening many ad budgets. Marketers are looking for the most effective use of their dollars. For Internet advertising, they look for performance-based advertising that is highly accountable—and that means search. While eMarketer estimates show search ad spending rising steadily from $10.7 billion in 2008 to nearly $20 billion by the end of 2013, the fallout from economic problems is still buried in the data. Even as the search market remains healthy relative to other online formats (such as static display ads) or offline media (such as newspapers), additional dollars entering search advertising each year will be lower from 2009 to 2011 than in 2008. This slower growth is a direct result of the current economic climate and its aftermath, as both companies and consumers dig out of the hole.

What Happened to Search Spending in 2008?

And the Most Influential Media Is...

In five major markets, TV still dominates. TV still has the most influence on purchasing decisions in five major markets—even among Internet users—according to a study conducted in September and October 2008 by Deloitte . The Internet and traditional media such as magazines, newspapers and radio constituted a second tier of influence among online consumers surveyed in the US, UK, Japan, Germany and Brazil. Television’s dominance came despite the majority of consumers in all five countries saying their computers were used more for entertainment than their TVs.
