Tired of getting confused by hearing lots of different online marketing terms such as SEO, SEM, PPC, CPC, CRM, PR, SERP, SMM, SMO and more?
In the online marketing field, jargon and abbreviations are constantly thrown around which can be very confusing to those who are not clued up with the latest developments in the world of advertising on the World Wide Web. At Echo, we wanted to let you into our world of digital marketing and explain a little more into what these terms mean and also how our services can help your business.
Every time you look for something online using a search engine, hundreds and thousands of pages of results come back. It is likely that the exact thing you are looking for has been found but is buried a few pages deep and the chance of you clicking through until you find it is extremely minimal.
SEO is an acronym for Search Engine Optimisation which simply means adapting a website and performing a range of tasks to make your pages rank higher in search engines such as Google. The higher you rank in Google the more likely people are to click on your website. Ask yourself how often you click on page 2 on Google? Typically less than 10% of users bother to navigate onto Page 2, the tenth position receives a very small 2.2% and over 33% of the traffic goes to the Holy Grail, organic position No 1.
