But, First…
Indiana Jones wants to talk about the 
difference between classic and old school
Classic: 
The Holy Grail. 
According to Indy, 
it’s best we 
preserve this so 
that all ages 
understand its 
importance…
Old School. Indy says this 
should never see the light of 
day again.

Notas del editor

  1. So, I’m going to talk about how content is king in the eyes of google and search engines and how it’s really your main ticket to getting found on the web. BUT FIRST
  2. BEFORE I BEGIN…..
  3. There’s sometimes a benefit to being old school -
  4. But in marketing your website, being old school
  5. Links matter; content marketing gets a boost b/c Google forces us to talk about content, not key words. So I’m going to talk to you about content tips and getting your rand out there……..
  6. Don’t write for search engines, write for audiences Then add in keywords Avoid duplicate content
  7. Getting to Know You – Start off Slow
  8. Google can’t read flash, videos or images – only text. If you put in an image, you can put alternative tags on the “backend” image with key words. Ask where we can put the photo tag in the content management system. Once website is launched, you can put URL in MyPageRank.net to see how Google sees your site.
  9. -Things we can control (hopefully) -Add keywords to all of these aspects
  10. -Things we can control (hopefully) -Add keywords to all of these aspects
  11. -Things we can control (hopefully) -Add keywords to all of these aspects
  12. Internal Linking: Link to Your Own Pages From Your Other Pages Link Your Weak Pages to Your Strong Pages This Tells Google What You Think is Important Use Keywords as Anchor Text
  13. SEO: Search engines reward businesses that publish quality, consistent content. http://contentmarketinginstitute.com/getting-started/ http://contentmarketinginstitute.com/2010/11/get-started-in-content-marketing/
  14. 13 marketing tactics; stayed the same as last year, only infographics grew larger. Have them talk through the process of what they do.
  15. Education Marketing Teach someone something Utility Marketing Make someone’s life easier Entertainment Marketing Make someone laugh, cry, question, or evoke some emotion Tell superb stories
  16. Media has fragmented, and the traditional marketing funnel is more like a bowl of spaghetti. Proactive, megaphone messages can get lost in the shuffle, or easily tuned out by customers. Especially in ED, where the target audience is so narrow, focusing on inbound marketing is a better way to promote. Create smart, HELPFUL content and put it in places and formats will it will be found. Google’sground-breaking Zero Moment of Truth research (zeromomentoftruth.com) found that we are moving to the era of self-serve information. In 2010 people consumed 5.3 pieces of information before making a purchase. Just one year later, it was 10.4 pieces of information. A separate study found that B2B buyers want at least 60% of their questions answered before they talk to a real person.
  17. Storytelling Done Right Number two search engine in the world More than 100M YouTube Subscribers 700 YouTube videos are shared on Twitter each minute.
  18. Repurpose, repurpose, repurpose
  19. Industry Cluster report is 150 pages long Need to add in the sharing numbers
  20. Other examples
  21. Other examples of the best e-newsletter
  22. Go through the process – ask them what content they currently create and then we can talk about how to repurpose it on the white board.
  23. Parameter is that whatever we uncover we can use it on our website.
