SEO Report Card: DiscountFlies.com

Originally published in Practical Ecommerce

DiscountFlies.com has really missed the boat (yes, the pun was intended) when it comes to search engine traffic. They do not show up in the first 100 results in Google or Yahoo! when searching for the popular search term fly-fishing or for the more targeted term fishing flies. But all is not lost.

Originally published in Practical Ecommerce

BalancedLifeProducts.com is a small ecommerce site, based in Madison, Wisconsin, that sells meditation and massage products such as yoga mats, meditation cushions, and reiki timers. The site doesn’t fare well in the search engines in the natural (unpaid) search results, so they have been relying on Google AdWords to fill in the gaps. It wasn’t hard to see why their rankings in natural search traffic were so low. After a quick health check-up of their level of search engine optimization, I made the following diagnosis…

Interactive Marketing: Reaching Customers in an On-Demand World

University of Wisconsin Executive Education - Integrated Customer Communications — Madison, WI

November 28th, 2005

Workshop by Stephan Spencer

Technology continues to revolutionize the sales and marketing efforts of firms worldwide. Businesses must either adapt or put themselves at risk. Companies and customers communicate and interact with each other in substantially different ways than 10 or even 5 years ago. Direct and interactive marketing are converging, financial metrics are increasingly mainstream, and customers expect channel “silos” to be broken down. Learn how to benefit from the new tools and thinking in managing customer relations to increase sales, improve strategies, and reach online and offline markets.

Search engine marketing

  • Make your site “search engine friendly”
  • Explore “Pay-per-click” search advertising
  • Analyze benchmarking, competitive intelligence and ROI
  • Identify trends in contextual, behavioral and local advertising

Create a buzz - viral marketing

  • Explore blogs, RSS feeds, forums, wikis and more
  • Harness “word of mouse” to enhance your brand
  • Discover the “sneezers” who will spread your viral message
