Top Challenge of Digital Marketing in India

Educating the client:
Do you prefer to have a good client? Take some time and effort to educate them on digital marketing. Having a huge budget earmarked for digital media or just having a Facebook page is not going to help anyways. Its easy to entice and convince client with digital parlance, but on longterm you will have a disappointed and grumpy client. No agency would prefer that. Extra effort to train client will pay you on longterm. We contemplate this fact and have various training modules of Digital marketing Expert.

Engagement is the fundamental:
“Half the money I spend on advertising is wasted; the trouble is I don’t know which half” as quipped by John Wanamaker long time ago doesn’t hold in digital marketing as such. We spend, measure and improvise here with the watchword ROI. Here is the trouble in disguise- let go off the engagement factor. When I mean engagement, it’s not about the impressions, reach or SOV, but it’s more of intangible and broadly AIDA (Attention Interest Desire Action) principles of Advertising.

Diversity-
East to West, North to South, planning for a nationwide campaign or at a regional level, the interest, culture and tastes vary and is very visible in any digital platform. This is a debatable issue, as people use internet in the universal language english and covers the educated middle and upper class. True, but local flavours rule the roost. Take any successful marketing campaign in offline, we get the connect. Going forward where smart phones and mobile penetration will be higher than broadband, Digital Marketers have many platforms opened up to experiment. The challenge and success depends on understanding the diversity.

Matrices Vs Creativity:
Loads of data are available once a digital campaign is running or even while at the planning stage. Obsessed with data and its interpretation may lead to overlooking creativity by digital marketer. Coming up with really out-of-the-box idea or replicating some successful campaign or even tweaking an already successful campaign to get more leverage or any other viable options, should have proper balance with creativity and matrices.

Getting it Integrated:
Any digital campaign with its well defined goals have many platforms- e-mailers, sms,ad words, special promotions on Social media and SEO and ORM which area long-term affair and many more to come in future. Each of these platforms has its own perils and should be approached with its own expertise. Thankfully, at present there are agencies /individuals who have expertise in each area and all a good Digital Marketer has to do is get it integrated.

How Voice Search Will Forever Change SEO

There has been an ongoing debate around the world about if voice search is going to be the end of SEO. We are at it again trying to find out if the rumors are true. If you ever talked about having a casual chat with a computer some years back, it would seem like science fiction; nobody would take you seriously because no one ever thought that virtual assistants could have a monetary impact on the market. Many people, thus, ignored the idea of virtual assistants and artificial intelligence. Things have however changed, and a lot is happening in the industry. According to Be shad Behead in his speech at Google Zurich, more than 55 percent of teenagers and 41 percent of adults are now using voice search on a daily basis, and still, the number is swelling. This is a clear indication of what to expect in the next few years. The fact that the service is faster, hands-free and that it allows you to multi-task, is a clear indication that voice search is changing SEO forever. So what is so u...

URL and SEO

URLs (Uniform Resource Locator) form an integral part of any Search Engine Optimization (SEO) campaign. A recent study shows that of the top ten indexed pages for a particular keyword, ‘Google has 40-50% of those with the keyword either in the URL or the domain, Yahoo shows 60% and Bing has an astonishing 85%’. What this translates into for Search Engine Optimization (SEO) is that having keywords in the URL or domain name can make a lot of difference to a page’s ranking. There are primarily two types of URL – Static URL and Dynamic URL Static URL: As the name suggests, Static URLs do not change. It does not have any variable strings or URL parameters. The page actually exists on a server and can be downloaded via FTP (File Transfer Protocol). Eg: A URL of the type http://www.example.com/web/ is a static URL.
