Implementing Your July 4th Deep Impact Traffic Generation Mission

Implementing Your July 4th Deep Impact Traffic Generation Mission

"If this doesn't make for a spectacular July the 4th, what does?"

And you're thinking, "Is this the blog I was meaning to read?" Yes, this is a blog about improving your business by better implementing your online marketing campaign for Lia Sophia Jewelry. The bottom line goal is to get quality blog or web page "hits"... not a hit like Comet Tempel 1, but a hit none-the-less from a targeted visitor.

Why all the NASA talk you ask? Well the truth is, I found this news story fascinating from the outset. It got me thinking about the parallels between getting "hits" at a website or blog and this single astronomical "hit" that this one comet was getting.

The media, the attention, the science, and all things 'cosmic' just seemed to flare up in interest as the 4th of July impact got closer and closer. So with an adult beverage by my side (lemonade :-) I felt it was rather topical for this special blog post for this July 4th day of celebration.

It just so happens that being "topical" and relating what you do with Lia Sophia Jewelry to news and current events is also a terrific marketing strategy. Millions of people are on the net today, tomorrow, and at all times, seeking news or details about all sorts of current events. If you're writing about that event or news item, you can increase the odds that searchers will find you. If what you do (or what you market) is related in some way, then "bingo" you'll attract more targeted traffic.

The increase level of visitors such a campaign can achieve by riding on the comet tail of current events and news stories can be as spectacular as one might imagine. The impact on your business can be equally stellar.

In my last blog post we started our series of PPC search engine tips that can help your campaign for better targeted earthbound visitors. So without further comet (or is it comment?), let's continue...

Tips for your PPC campaign:

• Remember that with PPC campaigns, you are not sending search visitors to a site, you are sending them to a web page (called: a destination or landing page). You must discover keywords and set-up ONE page at a time.
• Remember that people search by typing in more than one word:
• The 7 most used word phrases in search engines according to OneStat.com:
• 2 word phrases 32.58%
• 3 word phrase 25.61%
• 1 word phrases 19.02%
• 4 word phrases 12.83%
• 5 word phrases 5.64%
• 6 word phrases 2.32%
• 7 word phrases 0.98%
• Start your "keyword discovery" process by visiting the destination page you intend to send your search engine visitors to. Put on the 'reading glasses' of a customer and look at your page through their eyes.
• Ask yourself this: "What keywords might a person type in a search box where when they arrived at this destination page, they'd say 'BINGO' this is what I was looking for?" Find these keywords and you've discovered your best keywords.
