Online Marketing – Depends on stats!

Submitted by moreforeu

Gone are the days when you threw as much as you could at the wall hoping for something to stick or you position your Meta data and keywords in their rightful places and hope for the best, let’s start thinking a little bit beyond the stale old marketing techniques and start embracing the new online world. The quicker you do it and understand it the quicker you’ll get to where you need to be. Some might say you’ve already missed the boat? Most companies are still nowhere near where they need to be in terms of technology, skills and knowledge so you still have time.
Let’s look at things in a simplistic manner, would you go out and buy a new Mini without test driving it first? Read a review or two? Listen to a mate who raves about how good his Mini is? No of course not, because you want to know that you’re not wasting your money and let’s be honest there’s obviously a few spare Minis out there at the moment so you’re bound to pick up a bargain.
Spending money on marketing always represents a gamble however marketing online represents far less of a gamble as you can test and measure. Test and measure! It makes everything a lot clearer.
Online Marketing needs to be embraced and if you haven’t yet fear not, there is still the window of opportunity. Many company who basically was bragging that they had x amount of traffic to their site and x amount of back links which was true, however where this company failed in the online spectrum was the analytics and measuring part of equation.
