Integrated Search Marketing

In addition to SEO and PPC, we use Content as the single most effective method of boosting the impact of your website, through search engines and social media. More on this later.

When your prospective customers use the search engines to find specific products or services, the results that are returned will feature both organic and paid listings.

The higher your website appears in these listings (rankings), the more traffic you will attract to your website. Rankings are determined by the search engine algorithms; a combination of complex criteria by which the quality of your website is assessed. No-one knows exactly how websites are ranked by search engines such as Google, so beware any search marketing companies that offer guarantees on number one rankings in just one month! One of the biggest myths of search marketing is guarantees on traffic volume and high rankings for keywords. That said, we can make some reasonable assumptions on what the search engines value in a website.

From our experience in the industry, we know that search engines look for relevance, authority, and high quality content. Well constructed, easy to use websites that contain plenty of useful content relating to the business are more likely to achieve high rankings.

To attain high organic rankings you need an experienced SEO company. Good SEO is not based on quick wins, it is a long term investment in the success of your website, and includes constant testing, adjusting and refining. SEO looks at all the details of your website; on-page content, structure, usability and technical architecture. It also focuses on off-page elements, such as guest blogging and links to complementary sites. All this together ensures your site is relevant, authoritative and high value.

PPC is the method of paying the search engines to show an ad with intention of attracting web users to your website. PPC offers businesses rapid results, as it is quick to set up and can start delivering right away. It is very simple to create an account to manage a PPC campaign, but it requires knowledge and experience to make sure your budget is not wasted and your website gets the traffic required. High ad positions for your PPC campaign are based on how you bid for your keywords and the quality of your ads. There are many measures for PPC campaigns, cost per click (CPC), cost per acquisition (CPA) and click through rates, all of which help determine how you adjust and refine your campaign. At Vertical Leap we use all this data, but the most important indicator for PPC success is your return on investment.

Adding news, evergreen and social content to your website and social media pages supports your authority, boosts your search engine appeal and builds customer loyalty.
