How to be relevant online?

How often is it that we come across an ad from a company that has an amazing product that could have interested us but the ad is so ineffective that it shatters our hope in the product as well. Well, it is the case with a much digital advertising agency that goes by the agenda that spamming will make their voice be heard and their product be appreciated, but it is genuinely quite the opposite.

Targeting the right audience and respectfully conveying the word about your product is the only way of earning the goodwill for the buyer.

Statistics show that only 45% of digital marketing is actually producing fruitful results. So, in today’s day and age random spamming won’t get your product/services anywhere, being relevant has become important.

To be relevant it is important that you –

• Have a website which is attractive as well as user-friendly at the same time.
• Invest in SEO so that you appear in search results from some keywords
• About 60% people in today’s time are active on social media, hence it’s important to have at least one active social media account of the company.
• Reputation building – Know what people are saying about you. Solicit more reviews. When asked to review, most people write a positive review. When not asked, only unhappy people tend to write reviews. So, be at the top of your customer grievance handling game, and you’ll be respected in the market.
• People are tired of traditional advertising – They have learned that they have a choice. 20% of internet users use an ad blocker online. Overwhelmingly, people flee websites that pop up annoying invites and ads when they first land on the page. People want respect. They want someone to provide them with information that helps them make informed decisions. They want to buy from brands that they relate to. It is important to present them with a balanced choice, this will not only make them appreciate your company but will connect them to you for a long time.

In order to compete with the already existing big names in your field, you need digital marketing agencies to level the playing field for you. Forming the analytics in your favor and increasing your return on investment should be the priority. Having said this, building a brand and a reputation among your customer should be on the top of the list because that is what will sustain your business in the longer run.
