Local search is any search aimed at finding something within a specific geographic area. It is the consumer seeking information online with the intention of making a transaction offline. These results are usually located towards the top of Google with the letters A-G located next to them. This section is considered by many to be the phone book of today. This is a must for all business yet much more effective for a brick and mortar business.
Organic Optimization
An organic search is a type of search that generates natural results that were not paid advertisements. Many customers feel that these results are a more accurate reflection of what they might want when searching for a specific phrase, because of their relevance to the search terms. The intention of the consumer using the organic search results is that of doing more research for relevant websites tailored to their search terms for shopping, finding information, to verify credibility, or almost anything else that you could possibly want to find out more about. The biggest advantage of Organic Search as opposed to Local Search is the use of optimizing the website under multiple search terms (local is limited to 5) and not being confined to your
geographic area.

The views of contributors are their own, and not necessarily those of SEJ.This time of year is suitable for retrospection. We’re able to take a good look at how things played out in 2012, and get an idea of the trends and patterns that are most likely to dominate the coming year.
2012 was rough for SEO experts due to radical changes in Google’s algorithms, including many updates to Panda, as well as the the introduction of Penguin. While content quality and inbound links continue to play major roles in organic rankings, let’s take a look at the other factors that will govern SEO in 2013.
2012: The Year of Pandas and Penguins, Creating Value, and the Emergence of Guest Posting
Before we dive into predictions for SEO next year, let’s recap the major patterns of 2012.
Though originally released in 2011, Google’s Panda algorithm went through multiple updates that kicked many low-quality websites out of the SERPs; tens of thousands of websites were affected.
Google released its Penguin algorithm in April 2012, which changed the face of the industry, forcing many SEOs to adapt their tactics and strategies. Many companies that had engaged in Penguin-unfriendly SEO tactics were dropped from the search results due to Penguin, and companies that continued to engage in these tactics saw their rankings disappear, often without any warning.
Google got much smarter, to the extent that it appears to be able to distinguish between content that adds real value and content that has been posted solely for SEO purposes. “Value” became an important subconscious factor — one that will dictate how Google perceives websites.
Negative SEO became a hot topic of debate, to the extent that Google responded by launching the Disavow Link tool, which empowers webmasters to specify backlinks that should be discarded or discounted by Google when it evaluates links to their website.
Of the exploited SEO methods that were ousted and devalued, anchor text over-use was the most prominent. Remnants of websites that used “paid links” were kicked out too.
2013: The 7 Factors That Will Determine Your Survival in SEO
If it were up to me, I’d simply focus on creating value for thereader — because ultimately, that should be the goal of any website. However, increasing competition may require you to employ strategic practices in a pragmatic approach to assist your rise to the top of the SERPs. Here are the tactics and strategies that will dominate the SEO landscape in 2013.
1. Quality of Content
Ultimately, it all comes down to the quality and value of the content on your website. Google has been very explicit this year about good-quality content, and we expect this trend to carry over into next year in full force. By content quality, the metrics are:
uniqueness of the content/topic
resourcefulness and information richness (i.e., no thin content)
2. Content Marketing
Content marketing is being touted as the next big thing. Experts have called it the new SEO. To an extent, this is true. As a general rule, content marketing attracts backlinks, and adds value for the user/reader. It is more challenging, because you have to generate more content of high quality, circulate it, and make sure your content gets published widely with ample social signals to generate substantial SEO value.
Since Google takes valuable content seriously, a solid content marketing strategy will be the key to climbing to the next level in SEO.
3. AuthorRank
AuthorRank has emerged as a vital metric in deciding SERPs, although studies about its value are still ongoing. One thing that we can be sure of in 2013 is that AuthorRank will add credibility and value to your website, and it will be vitally important for every webmaster.
4. Social Signals
After much debate and discussion, social signals have largely been accepted as valid ranking factors. In the next year (and probably in the years to follow), social signals will play a growing role. Shares, retweets, mentions, and perhaps most importantly, +1s are trophies every webmaster should be amassing.
5. Mobile/Responsive Design
Although this does not directly influence the ranking of a page, it will play a role in your fortunes. Google was one of the first companies to become aware of this trend in web browsing due to the growing presence of tablets and smartphones. Responsive design may not be an explicit SEO factor, but in terms of usability, it is likely to be a highly influential element to consider in 2013.
6. Localization
Google’s growing preference for local websites and information has become evident in many searches. It’s safe to assume 2013 we’ll witness an increase in this preference. Websites that apply local SEO will enjoy higher rankings and visibility. This includes map data, listings, citations, and reviews on local information sites.
7. Media
Images and videos have become staples on the Internet. We’ve consistently seen that relevant results that include videos get ranked higher than text-only content. The further emergence of media content is an important development you can expect next year. It’s becoming essential to add relevant non-textual media to text content, because this adds value and makes the content more resourceful.
The above are some of the major trends or patterns that I believe will play a key role in SEO for 2013. What other factors do you think may influence SEO?
How To Keep Your Customers After The Holidays [PART 2]
It happens all too often at this time of the year: eCommerce store
owners get whipped into a frenzy, trying to get everything ready for the
holiday season. A list of questions races through their heads.
Are my holiday promotion emails written? Does my drop shipper have
everything in stock? Are my ad campaigns (Google, Facebook, Yahoo,
Retargeting, etc.) set up and ready for the holidays? Do I have enough
customer support? The list of questions goes on — I know because I am
one of those store owners right now.
With all the madness of the holiday season it can be easy to overlook
possibly the biggest opportunity that comes with the holiday sales
rush: The opportunity to turn your new holiday customers into repeat
customers down the road.
Setting your store up for repeat business is one of the easiest ways
to increase your bottom line. In the 1-month period shown in the image
below, more than half of our visitors to that site (13,601) are
returning visitors (people who visited the site at some point before the
selected time period).
These returning visitors generated 56% of the revenue for that month.
That means that over half of the revenue that month came from people
who engaged with us sometime in the month (or months) prior.
So, how are we doing it? And how do you get your customers to come
back, engage with you again, and purchase your products month after
month?
Here are 2 more strategies you can use to increase repeat engagement (Check out last week’s post for the first two strategies): #3: Set up an automated follow-up email that goes out after the product has arrived.
If your goal is to have your customers want to do business with you
again in the future, make sure they to feel really well taken care of
the first time around. An easy way to accomplish this is to send a
“How’s it going” email after they have received your product.
The email should communicate something like this:
“Hey, John from yoursite.com here. We see that you’ve had your
product a few days now and we want to make sure that everything is going
okay with it. If you need anything or have any questions, here is where
you can reach us. Etc etc”
This email makes your customers feel good (and therefore think
favorably of you) because it shows that your company cares about their
experience. It shows that you want to make sure that they are happy with
their purchase and that if there is anything they need related to the
transaction, you want to help.
Any merchant sending out a receipt and tracking number but not
following up after the product has been received is missing a valuable
opportunity to connect with customers. Plus, this is an excellent time
to ask for a product review. #4 Do A Non-Product Related Weekly Blog Post
This is the secret sauce. The above 3 strategies aim to ensure your
customer has a positive experience with you the first time around and
has a discount incentive to shop with you again. Just implementing those
3 strategies will increase your repeat business, but this fourth
strategy really brings the noise.
So what is a non-product related weekly blog post? It’s a piece of
content (video, audio, text, image, etc.) centered on something other
than your products and the offerings of your store.
Most eCommerce stores serve a function of convenience but not
significance for their customers: the store is a convenient interface
for getting a product, but the store itself has no intrinsic
significance. By providing content related to things other than your
products, your brand gains significance in the eyes of your customer.
You are no longer the place they go only when they want to buy your
product; you are also the place they go when they want to engage with
other similar people or consume interesting content. And the more time
your customers spend engaging with your brand about the things that
matter to them, the more likely they are to remember your products and
buy them again.
So, the key to repeat business is to engage with your community of
customers (and their friends – we will do entire blog post on this
particular topic) in conversations that are relevant to their lives.
By producing a piece of content each week (and sharing with your
customers via email and all relevant social profiles) you are getting
face time with your community each week, staying present in their lives,
and NOT trying to sell them anything. (You’re also building a helluva
lot of good will!) You become a fixture in the digital lives of your
customers when, as they are going about their internet routines, you pop
up with something relevant and useful.
Doing this consistently (but not obnoxiously) takes you from the
“faceless-store” category to the “trustworthy brand” category in the
minds of your customers. All of this results in customers who like you,
trust you, and buy from you again when make offers in the future. And as
an added bonus, your customers will begin sharing your content with
their friends, which means your brand reaches new people via the holy
grail of traffic methods: personal endorsement.
Since we’ve been using this weekly branding strategy, we’ve seen the
response to our promotional/sales emails jump by 200%. This is one of
the most powerful (and most often overlooked) ways to find growth in
your business.
Now is a great time to start! Produce a video or two, write a blog
post, and get them out there this month while everyone has their
attention on your store for the holidays. Also, be on the lookout for
other ways you can do this. Takeaway
If you want your store to be around for a while, you must look beyond
the point of sale. By creating relationships with your customers you
can become a trusted source of information about the products you offer
as well as related topics of interest. Broadening the scope of your
interaction with your customers increases the significance your brand
takes on their lives—and that makes the decision to buy from you instead
of some other faceless store an easy one.

So, how are we doing it? And how do you get your customers to come
back, engage with you again, and purchase your products month after
month?
Here are 2 strategies you can use to increase repeat engagement (HINT: Check the DM Blog for 2 more strategies next week): #1: Introduce your customers to someone from your brand or company.
A good post-purchase customer retention/branding strategy should start immediately after the purchase.
Add a video on your Thank You page, and below it place a Facebook
“like” box for your company. In the video, thank your customer for
purchasing, and also encourage them to join your community on Facebook.
We are finding that roughly 50% of people will like a fan page
straight from the Thank You page post purchase. And when you get your
customers involved in your Facebook community, you’ll have the
opportunity to share things of interest with them (we’ll get to that
strategy later). Example:
#2: Include a package insert with your shipment.
If you are warehousing & shipping your own products this is a bit
easier to pull off. That said, I have yet to run into a drop shipper
who wouldn’t include a slip of paper along with all orders going out.
Here are the main elements you should include on the insert: a) Discount coupon for future order, with encouragement to share that coupon with friends. b) Invitation to join your Facebook community by liking your company’s Facebook page. c) A heads-up that you will be emailing them with content other than sales promotions (more on this in step 4).
The insert can be a simple piece of paper, a post card, or whatever
you want. If you are going the post card route, we’ve found
http://www.clubflyers.com to be a good low-priced printing service.
Set up a special coupon code that you only use on the inserts so that you can track the usage. Takeaway
If you want your store to be around for a while, you must look beyond
the point of sale. By creating relationships with your customers you
can become a trusted source of information about the products you offer
as well as related topics of interest. Broadening the scope of your
interaction with your customers increases the significance your brand
takes on their lives—and that makes the decision to buy from you instead
