On my previous post I shared the first four ways of measuring your SEO success. Today I will continue sharing the four remaining ways that you can measure your SEO success and achieve your online business success. As I’ve said SEO is all about achieving your online business goals. And the strategies and ways are only an important aspect of it. Measuring your success is your way in meeting your goals.
The first four ways to measure your success that I have shared before was through:
1. Pure Rankings
2. Visitors
3. Conversions
4. Goal-Orientated Conversions
In addition to this are:
5. Keyword conversions
6. On-Site conversions
7. Sales
8. Return on Investment
Measure your SEO success through keyword conversions. There are keywords or key phrases that will convert better than the other. A keyword or phrase that tends to draw more traffic does not assure you that you will have a successful conversion. Are you faced with the problem of increased traffic that does not lead to increased conversion? We often tend to primarily look into our keywords used to generate that traffic. Some words will obviously have different effect on the search than other and might influence the course of their visit. Observe on how your competitor deal with their PPC keywords, this can help you to come up up with winning keywords and key phrases.
Your site itself is the greatest factor on how your visitors act when they are into it. Websites that convert well tend to be laid-out in a way that actively encourages site visitors to move from one section of a site to another. The same principle also applies to moving spiders applies to moving your visitors. It is important that your website should be user- friendly as well as to search engines.
Every online business owner’s goal is a sale or at least a lead. This goes the same as to conversions. Sales are an important metric to measure the success of any marketing campaign but, it is important to note that measuring the effectiveness of your SEO by online sales is a false metric. For actual sales happen offline unless you have a online store powered with a shopping cart solution that will allow your visitors to transact and purchase good over your website. Always remember that online marketing and SEO is only partially responsible for your sales. You should always take into consideration outside factors that may affect your sale, and do not rely only to your online marketing campaign.
Return on investment is the most realistic metric to measure any marketing campaign, whether it is online marketing or offline. You should have a positive answer after asking yourself if you are making more money after investing in online marketing, search engine marketing specifically. Having a positive answer to the question means that you marketing campaign is working well.
Search engine optimisation and search engine marketing takes a lot of effort and patience. But once you achieved you online business goals, the feeling of fulfillment and success is different. And remember, if things do not go well, then you should start observing what hinders you to be successful. Sometimes its just those basic things that we often neglect for we are focused on working on the strategies that will bring us success. Do not hesitate to ask for help from experienced professionals.
