How to utilize Search Engine Marketing to boost site visit?

Posted on May 31, 2016 by admin

Search engine marketing (SEM) is a form of Internet marketing that involves the promotion of websites by increasing their visibility in search engine results pages (SERPs) primarily through paid advertising and organic ranking. SEM is the wider discipline that incorporates the Search Engine Optimization; it includes both paid search results (using tools like Google Adwords or Bing Ads and organic search results (SEO).

Another part of SEM is social media marketing (SMM). SMM is a type of marketing that involves exploiting social media to influence consumers that one company’s products and/or services are valuable.

Remember that your customers search for you online, using words – even for visual content. That means that you will need to use words to describe your posts, images, videos and those words need to make sense to the people searching. In other words, banish industry lingo! Look for relevant #hashtags, too, to associate with your content. You may notice different themes depending on the day of the week.

Be specific when using hashtags, come up with relevant, unbranded hashtags. Don’t go too long or too clever, don’t have more hashtags than words, don’t hashtag everything. We may suggest to have no more than 10 / 20 hashtags.

In the field of search engine optimization, one of the most effective strategy is the link building; it describes actions aimed at increasing the number and quality of inbound links to a webpage with the goal of increasing the search engine rankings of that page or website.

Social Media in the Design Industry

Posted on May 13, 2016February 28, 2018 by admin

The evolution of social media reflects the evolution of the design industry, and those who embrace it will find themselves with more opportunities, in much the same way as those who moved from “paste-up” artwork to digital print production. Social media can allow you to showcase your work to the people who need your skills or provide you with valuable insight into who you may be working with.

Although the usefulness of any social media platform will depend on the corporate goals of the company, social media doesn’t have to be worthless time suck. There’s a reason why companies invest so many man-hours and so much money into ‘new media’ – it can help to grow your business. Create valuable page content.

Why Bother With Social Media?
Because social media networks are where our customers spend time as they get ideas about transforming their spaces with tile and stone products. As they explore online, they will come across visual inspiration on social networks especially since online and social media content have become increasingly visual.

According to A Complete Guide to Visual Content
Content with relevant images gets 94 percent more views than content without. This oft-cited visual content stat is evidence that visuals have been vital to online success for some time. The original study from content platform Skyword came out in 2011… [Our brain simply] processes visuals 60,000 times faster than it does text.

Do keyword research
Remember that your customers search for you online, using words – even for visual content. That means that you will need to use words to describe your images and those words need to make sense to the people searching. In other words, banish industry lingo! Look for relevant #hashtags, too, to associate with your content. You may notice different themes depending on the day of the week. Perhaps it’s #TileTuesday or #MosaicMonday; consider piggy-backing off of those themes. Be specific when using hashtags, come up with relevant, unbranded hashtags. Don’t go too long or too clever, don’t have more hashtags than words, don’t hashtag everything. We may suggest to have no more than 10 / 20 hashtags.

Social Media in the Photography industry

LIVE PHOTOGRAPHY SHOW, Dubai, Dubai World Trade Center
is running on 7/9 May 2016

Center Stage Agenda
Social Media in the Photography Industry
7 May 2016. 18:50 – 19:20

This session will demonstrate how to use social media to spread awareness about your profile and photographs, and how you can make the best with the resources available to you, and eventually capitalise from it.

Nico de Corato – Owner and Founder of DubaiBlog network, professional speaker and contributor of many magazines.

Abstract. Although the usefulness of any social media platform will depend on the individual goals of the photographer, social media doesn’t have to be worthless time suck. There’s a reason why professionals in the photography industry invest so many man-hours and so much money into ‘new media’ – it can help to grow your business. Create valuable page content.

Choose your social networks.

Ask questions and include calls to action to boost the amount of feedback you receive and therefore the amount of exposure your content gets. Get engagement from your users. That’s why is also useless to buy followers, cause in such a case you get numbers but no engagement..

Post at the right time. If you post according to when your fans are active, then more users—especially those on mobile devices—will see your content and be driven to your page.

Photography has always been fundamental to social media. Let’s take Facebook for a start, where in the beginning your profile picture was everything. ‘Here’s what I look like. Whaddya think?’ exclaimed a proud user’s carefully chosen avatar. (Although in most cases most people’s profile pictures should come with a disclaimer which says: Here’s what I DON’T look like. This photo took me ages to do).
