SEO

Each Website has Elements that are weighted by Google which Google use to represent relevancy to a user's search query

  • External links
  • Meta Title (The page name)
  • Page & subtitles (titles for

users)

  • Keyword density (the context)
  • Amount of copy (the depth)

Any guesses to what these elements are?

Social market share in UK

slide-40
SLIDE 40

So which one should you choose? My argument.

Social “channels” are still other people’s websites. If your website isn’t looking up to par why would you add to someone elses? Also, they are difficult to do well...

Think about a petulant child...

  • 1. In constant need of attention
  • 2. Is VERY NOISY
  • 3. Doesn’t really listen to you
  • 4. Can be very smelly if left unattended
  • 5. There are loads of others creating just as much noise

SLIDE 42

Still want to do it!? Ask yourself these questions.

  • 1. Is it right for your target

market?

  • Gender
  • Age
  • Interests
