earn customers for one’s business and reach them conveniently. The speed and ease
with which the digital media transmits information and help boost a business is amazing.
Let us first throw some light on the scope of digital marketing.
What is Digital Marketing?
Digital Marketing is the term used for the targeted, measurable, and interactive marketing
of products or services using digital technologies to reach the viewers, turn them into
customers, and retain them.
So, how is digital marketing different from traditional marketing?
The traditional manner of marketing involved businesses to advertise their products or
services on print media, radio and television commercials, business cards, bill boards,
and in many other similar ways where Internet or social media websites were not
employed for advertising. Traditional marketing policies had limited customer
reachability and scope of driving customers’ buying behavior.
Digital marketing achieves targets of marketing a business through different online
channels. Let us see how.
The following table lists a few points that differentiate digital marketing from traditional
marketing −
Traditional Marketing Digital Marketing
Communication is unidirectional. Means, a
business communicates about its products or
services with a group of people.
Communication is bidirectional. The customer also can
ask queries or make suggestions about the business
products and services.
Medium of communication is generally phone
calls, letters, and Emails.
Medium of communication is mostly through social
media websites, chat, and Email.

preparing, and launching.

campaign and carry out changes along its
development. With digital tools, campaigning is easier.

throughout from generating campaign ideas up

made to reach the specific audience by employing
search engine techniques.

reaching local audience.

Social Media Marketing
Social Media Marketing is the manner of generating website traffic or attracting viewers
and customers through social networking websites such as Facebook, Pinterest,
LinkedIn, Twitter, and so on. Social media marketing is a subset of digital marketing.
All social networking websites support sharing of content, but all are not necessarily
employed for digital marketing. While Facebook emphasizes on personal sharing,
Twitter emphasizes on tweeting short messages about ones’ opinions or reactions, and
LinkedIn goes for professional networking, Pinterest motivates to market one’s ideas and
online businesses.
Principle of Social Media Marketing
Social media grew up as the most popular outcome of the Internet as people around the
world like to communicate and share their special moments, problems, ideas, and
suggestions with others. They also like to learn about a place worth visiting, a new craft
projects, recipes, or a new language. Social media websites enable you to share content
of your choice with right audience at your convenience.
This popularity of social media has inspired the business minds around the world with
the idea of small online businesses. One can open a store in Amazon, eBay, or any other
custom platforms such as Shopify or Etsy. But the main challenge is finding the
customers. There are ways like search results in Google, Bing or in any other search
engine. But for a new business with established competitors, it takes a long time to get
a high rank in the search results.
Social networking websites are a great solution to this challenge. The basic technique
here is to share engaging posts and the right content created for the desired audience.
Then the audience helps by sharing the content further, which in turn reaches further.
Hence there is another option of advertising the product, services, or ideas on the social
networking websites where there is less degree of competition.
Digital Marketing accomplishes targets of marketing of a business through various Digital
Marketing Channels.

Indexing	
• Indexing	generally	refers	to	getting	your	web	pages	stored	in	Google	server	
database	and	various	other	search	engines.

to	display	as	answers	for	search	queries.	
	
Retrieving	
• After	crawling	and	indexing	all	the	data	is	stored	in	the	Search	Engine	Database.	
• Search	Engines	are	answer	machines,	when	someone	performs	an	online	search	
,	SE	does	two	things	:		
• It	returns	results	that	are	relevant	to	the	search	query.

Example	of	content	using	these	terms:	
	
While	trying	to	lose	weight,	I	tried	all	techniques	in	the	book.	
I	tried	every	weight	loss	diet	available.	
…	
I	asked	for	weight	loss	tips	from	those	who	had	succeeded	in	losing	the	weight.	It	
worked	for	them	but	somehow	it	didn’t	work	for	me.	
…	
after	I	had	been	at	it	for	6	months,	and	i	was	not	seeing	any	results	…	my	gym	trainer	
recommended	weight	loss	supplements.	I	was	scared	of	the	side	effects	and	ended	up	
not	taking	them.	Now,	I	am	happy	that	I	didn’t	take	them
Some	other	factors	that	are	important	while	writing	content:	
• Use	of	image	and	videos	
• Writing	on	trending	topics	and	your	content	should	be	fresh.	
• Use	of	short	and	simple	sentences	(15-20	words)	
• Explain	point	wise	or	in	listical	manner	
• Content	should	be	unique.	You	can	use	plagiarism	checker	to	check	for	duplicate	
content.	
	
Meta	Tags:	
• Meta	descriptions	are	commonly	used	on	search	engine	result	pages	(SERPs)	to	
display	preview	snippets	for	a	given	page	
• Title:	Primary	kw+	Sec.	kw+	Brand	Name	(60-72	characters)	
• Description:	Primary	+	Secondary	(155-160	characters)	
	
								
	
• We	need	to	make	sure	our	keyword	is	in	meta	title	so	that	our	articles	come	up	
in	search.	It	helps	us	give	a	primary	title	of	our	page	for	the	user	and	it	also	helps	
simplify	information	for	SEO	purposes.	
• A	description	tag	provides	us	the	chance	to	give	an	overview	of	page’s	content.	It	
helps	us	explain	what	our	page	is	about.	
• Draws	readers	to	website	from	SERP,	hence	improves	the	click	through	rate.	
• Avoid	duplicate	meta	description	tags.

H1-H6	Tags:	
	
• Use	<h1>…..	<h6>	tags	for	headings	and	subheadings	
• Include	your	primary	keyword	in	the	heading	<h1>	
									 	
	
Alt	Tag:	An	alt	tag	is	used	for	image	and	video	description.	
• The	alt	tag	provides	a	text	alternative	for	search	engines	as	search	engines	
cannot	interpret	images.	
• Useful	for	crawlers	and	users	who	cannot	view	images.	
• Should	be	simple	and	natural	
• If	you	have	same	image	on	different	pages,	then	use	different	descriptions.	
• By	using	different	descriptions	we	can	focus	on	different	keywords.	
• If	you	have	same	image	on	different	pages,	use	different	description	
• Example-	For	an	image	of	backpack,	you	can	use	
o Lightweight	blue	backpack	ideal	for	traveling.	
o Expedition	pack	for	mountain	climbing.	
o Knapsack	for	women	hikers.	
o Comfortable	computer	daypack	for	students	
	
Caption:	The	caption	is	a	text,	which	is	displayed	below	image.	It	can	also	be	used	to	
mention	the	source	of	the	image	used.		
	
URL	Optimization:	
• URL	provides	informative	signals	that	help	search	engines	understand	the	
content	of	the	page,	its	purpose	and	its	target	market.	
• Certain	key	points	to	remember	are:	
o Use	readable	url’s	
o Use	hyphens	in	url,	avoid	underscores	
o Select	relevant	keywords	
o Don’t	use	capital	letters,	as	url’s	are	case	sensitive.	
o Avoid	stop	words	like	“the”,	“and”	etc	
o The	URL	should	be	short.
Links:	
• Link	building	is	important	as	it	helps	users	navigate	between	pages	on	the	
internet.	
• Link	building	is	important	as	it	helps	in	building	relationships,	help	in	earning	
referral	traffic	and	finally	helps	in	brand	building.	
• Types	of	links:	
o Internal	links	
o External	links	
• Internal	links	are	any	links	from	one	page	on	a	domain	which	lead	to	another	
page	on	that	same	domain.	The	internal	links	to	a	specific	page	signal	the	
relative	importance	of	that	page.	
• External	links	are	links	that	point	to	any	other	domain	other	than	the	domain	
the	link	is	posted	on.		
Page	Speed	
• Measurement	of	how	fast	the	content	on	your	page	loads.	
• If	longer	load	time,	then	higher	bounce	rate	and	lower	avg.	time	spent	by	the	
user	on	the	site,	which	finally	affects	our	conversion.	
• We	can	use	gtmetrix.com	to	check	our	loading	speed.	
• Page	load	speed	goes	from	1	to	3s	,	the	bounce	rate	increases	by	32%	
• Speed	goes	from	1	to	5s,	the	bounce	rate	increases	by	90%.	
	
Ways	to	optimize	page	speed:	
• Delete	unused	plugins	if	you	are	a	wordpress	user.	
• Enable	compression:	Reduce	the	size	of	html,	css	and	js	files	that	are	larger	than	
150	bytes.	
• Minify	css,	html	and	javascript	:	optimize	your	code	by	removing	spaces,	
commas	and	other	unnecessary	characters.	Also	remove	unused	codes	and	code	
comments.	
• Reduce	redirects	
o Example.comàwww.example.comàm.example.comàm.example.com/h
ome.	
• The	2	redirects	in	between	are	extra	and	make	your	page	load	slower.	
• Optimize	your	images	
o Be	sure	that	your	images	are	no	larger	than	they	need	to	be	
o They	are	in	the	right	format.	(PNGs	are	better	for	graphics	while	JPEG	is	
better	for	photographs)	
o They	are	compressed	for	the	web.
• Set	browser	caching	
o Browsers	cache	a	lot	of	information	so	that	when	a	repeated	visitor	
comes	back	to	visit	your	site,	the	browser	doesn’t	have	to	reload	the	
entire	page.	
o When	we	leverage	browser	caching	,	our	pages	load	faster	for	repeated	
visitors.	
• Use	Content	Delivery	Network.	
• Use	better	programming	language.	
	
	
SSL	Certificate:	Security	certificate	for	any	website	
																															 	
• Builds	trust	in	users.	Users	find	it	safe	to	use	your	website	
• SSL	stores	user’s	information	in	the	server	in	encrypted	form.	
• Enabling	SSL	certification	on	your	website	and	shifting	to	HTTPS	makes	Google	
understand	that	your	website	is	safe	for	transactions	and	highly	secured	
• Google	always	prefers	to	give	its	users	a	trustable	and	credible	user-experience.	
	
Crawling	
	
I.	Follow	&	No-follow	Links	
• A	nofollow	link	does	not	allow	search	engine	bots	to	follow	the	link	i.e	if	website	
owner	is	linking	back	to	you	with	no	follow	attribute	it	does	not	pass	on	the	link	
juice.	It	doesn’t	count	for	SEO.	
• Only	humans	will	be	able	to	follow	the	link.	
• A	dofollow	link	allows	search	engines	to	follow	the	link	and	reach	our	website,	
giving	us	the	link	juice	and	the	backlink.	
• Humans	and	Search	engine	both	will	be	able	to	follow	you.
• For a link:
<a href=”http://www.fictivepage.com/xyz” rel=”nofollow”>
• For an entire page: (This goes in the <head> section)
<meta name="robots" content="nofollow">
	
II.	Index	&	No-index	Pages	
• No	index:	To	prevent	a	page	from	appearing	in	Google	Search	(This	goes	in	the	
<head>	section)	
• <meta name="robots" content="noindex">
	
	
	
• Follow,Index	:	Default	Setting,	Original	Content	with	your	important	links.	
• Nofollow-Index	:	Clients	logo	page(This	goes	in	the	<head>	section)	
• <meta name="robots" content="nofollow">
• Follow-Noindex	:	Copied	Content	with	trustworthy	external	links(This	goes	in	
the	<head>	section)	
• <meta name="robots" content="noindex">
• Nofollow-Noindex	:	Copied	content	with	irrelevant	external	links(This	goes	in	
the	<head>	section)	
• <meta name="robots" content="noindex, nofollow">
	
III.	Canonical	Links:		
	
• An	HTML	element	that	prevents	internal	duplicate	issues	by	specifying	the	
preferred	version	out	of	two	pages.	
• The	canonical	tag	is	all	about	duplicate	content	and	preferred	content.	
• It	helps	search	engines	identify	which	is	the	original	page	in	relation	to	
duplicated	content.	
• For	eg	:	Multiple	URLs	are	created	on	ecommerce	sites	while	using	filters	,	where	
these	URLs	have	same	or	similar	content.	
• The	canonical	tag	is	used	in	these	instances	to	tell	the	search	engine,	which	is	the	
original	content.
<link rel="canonical" href="http://www.fictivepage.com/best-pa
ge" />
	
IV.	Robots.txt:	
• It	is	a	file	where	you	mention	that	you	don’t	want	certain	pages	of	your	site	to	be	
accessed	by	crawlers.	
• For	wordpress,	the	following	plugin	can	be	installed.		
	
	
It	will	show	up	in	“settings”	tab
V.	Sitemap:	
• Sitemap	is	an	XML	file	that	is	full	of	your	individual	webpage's	URL.	It	is	an	
archive	of	every	webpage	in	your	website.	
• It	is	used	for	the	purpose	of	letting	the	search	engine	crawlers	follow	the	links	to	
individual	webpages	so	that	it	doesn’t	miss	out	anything.	
• Search	engine	should	see	all	your	pages,	as	more	pages	they	index	from	you,	the	
more	trust	your	site	gains.	
	
• An	experiment	was	conducted	to	see	if	submitting	a	Sitemap	to	Google	would	
decrease	the	time	it	took	Google	to	crawl	and	index	the	page.		
• Results:	
				Before	submission:	1375	minutes		
				After	submission:	14	minutes		
	
Priority:	It	is	set	to	a	number	ranging	from	zero	to	one;	if	no	number	is	assigned,	a	
page’s	priority	is	0.5.	A	high	priority	page	will	be	crawled	first	as	compared	to	other	
pages.		
Here	are	some	examples	of	different	types	of	pages	and	how	their	Priority	sitemap	XML	
tag	value	might	be	set,	depending	upon	how	important	they	are…	
• 0.8-1.0:	Homepage,	subdomains,	product	info,	major	features	
• 0.4-0.7:	Articles	and	blog	entries,	category	pages,	FAQs	
• 0.0-0.3:	Outdated	news,	info	that	has	become	irrelevant	
	
Frequency:	This	tells	the	search	engines	approximately	how	often	each	page	is	
updated.	An	update	refers	to	actual	changes	to	the	HTML	code	or	text	of	the	page,	not	
updated	Flash	content	or	modified	images.	
	
According	to	Google,	the	Changefreq	XML	tag	may	be	set	to	one	of	seven	frequencies:	
“never”				“yearly”			“monthly”			“weekly”			“daily”			“hourly”			“always”	
	
	
	
	
For	Wordpress	you	can	use	the	plugin	called	Google	XML	sitemap.
For	a	coded	website	you	can	generate	the	sitemap	via	xml-sitemaps.com	
	
To	find	any	website’s	sitemap	search	on	Google	like	this:	
site:domainname	.xml
What	is	Off-Page	SEO?	
	
	
Off-page	SEO	refers	to	the	methods	that	can	be	used	to	improve	the	positioning	of	a	
website	on	the	search	engine	results	page	(SERPs).	Many	people	associate	off-page	
with	link	building,	but	that’s	not	the	only	part.	In	general,	Off	Page	SEO	has	to	do	with	
the	promotions	and	practices	which	are	beyond	website	design	for	the	purpose	of	
ranking	a	website	higher	on	the	search	results.	
What	are	Backlinks?	
	
	
	
A	backlink	is	created	when	one	website	links	to	another	website.	The	link	of	site	B	from	
site	A	is	called	the	backlink.	Backlinks	are	extremely	valuable	from	SEO	point	of	view.	
In	 actuality,	 backlinks	 to	 your	 website	 are	 a	 signal	 to	 the	 search	 engines	 that	 others	
validate	your	content.	If	many	websites	link	to	the	same	webpage,	search	engines	can	
conclude	that	the	content	is	worth	linking	to	and	therefore	also	worth	showing	on	the	
search	engine	results	page	(SERP).	So	earning	these	backlinks	can	have	a	positive	effect	
on	a	site's	position	and	visibility	on	the	search	engine.
What	is	Link	Juice?	
	
Link	juice	is	the	term	used	to	check	the	backlinks	that	you	have	provided	on	other	
websites.	It	tells	you	how	much	referral	traffic	you	are	getting	from	different	links.	Link	
Juice	is	an	important	factor	for	ranking	your	website	on	search	engine	results	page.	
	
What	is	Link	Building?	
	
Link	building	is	the	process	towards	obtaining	hyperlinks	from	other	websites	to	your	
own	website.	There	are	numerous	methods	for	building	links.	SEO	specialists	have	
concurred	that	link	building	is	one	of	the	most	difficult	parts	of	their	jobs.	Many	SEO	
specialists	spend	most	of	their	time	trying	to	get	the	job	done	successfully.	
Consequently,	on	the	other	hand,	if	you	can	acquire	the	art	of	building	high-quality	
links,	it	can	really	put	you	ahead	of	your	competition.

• Domain	Authority		
Domain	Authority	is	a	score	for	search	engines	created	by	Moz	that	predicts	how	
well	a	website	will	rank.	DA	score	ranges	from	1	to	100,	with	higher	scores	having	a	
greater	chance	to	rank	higher	on	the	search	engine	result	pages. The	domain	authority	
of	a	website	describes	the	relevance	of	a	particular	field	or	industry.	This	relevance	
directly	affects	the	positioning	by	the	search	engines,	trying	to	evaluate	domain	
authority	via	automated	analytical	algorithms.	In	a	less	competitive	field	or	subject,	
even	websites	with	a	low	rank	can	achieve	higher	visibility	in	search	engines	as	the	
highest	ranked	websites	that	match	a	definite	set	of	search	words	which	are	positioned	
on	the	top	positions	in	the	search	engine	result	pages.

Link	Earning	Methods	
	
• Moving	Man	Method	
	
The	Moving	Man	method	is	an	advanced	new	method	for	building	quality	
backlinks	with	relevant	sites	related	to	your	field	or	industry.	The	focus	is	on	
finding	the	right	fit	for	your	backlinks	by	reaching	out	to	people	with	similar	
interests	who	are	at	present	linking	to	pages	that	have	moved	or	have	shut	
down.		
STEPS:	
1) Find	resources	that	are	outdated	or	keep	an	eye	on	industries	that	rebrand	
or	change	names.	
	
2) Use	search	strings	to	find	websites	that	are	outdated	by	using	search	
strings	:	
• “service	not	available”	
• “page	no	longer	exists”	
• “no	longer	available”	
• “website	closed”	
• “this	page	is	no	longer	updated”	
• “service	no	longer	available”	
• “this	website	is	no	longer	updated”	
3) Find	sites	that	link	to	the	old	resource	
	
Now	that	you’ve	found	a	site	that	recently	re-branded	or	a	site	feature	that’s	
no	longer	working,	it’s	time	to	find	the	links	pointing	to	that	page.	Just	grab	
the	URL	of	the	outdated	resource	and	put	it	into	your	backlink	checking	tool	
(“Broken	Link	Checker”	and	“Check	my	links	extension”	on	Google	Chrome).	
4) Reach	out	and	get	your	link	
The	last	step	will	be	to	connect	with	all	the	people	who	still	link	to	the	
outdated	resource.	You	would	want	to	put	in	their	notice	about	their	
outdated	link	and	gently	suggest	that	they	review	your	link	and	add	it	to	
their	site.
• Skyscraper	Method	
STEPS:	
1) Select	a	keyword	to	target	
	
The	first	step	in	the	skyscraper	method	is	to	find	a	keyword	that	you	want	to	
target	related	to	your	field	and	find	content	related	to	this	keyword	that	
already	has	a	considerable	amount	of	links	to	it.	
		
2) Create	a	better	content	
	
Make	content	related	to	your	keyword	even	better	than	all	the	contents	that	
are	accessible	out	there.		
	
3) Get	high-quality	links	and	reach	out	to	people	through	e-mail	campaigns		
	
Start	letting	people	know	about	your	amazing	content	and	find	authentic	
sites	in	your	niche	to	link	to	you	using	the	email	outreach	plans.	
	
• Broken	Link	Building	Method	
	
STEPS:	
1) Identifying	external	broken	links	on	various	websites	
	
Broken	link	building	is	the	procedure	of	identifying	external	broken	links	
on	different	websites	(using	Check	My	Links	extension	on	Google	
Chrome),	where	the	broken	link	is	directing	to	a	content	similar	to	an	
article	you	have	already	made.		
	
2) Getting	the	broken	link	replaced	
	
The	main	aim	is	to	get	the	broken	link	replaced	with	the	link	to	your	
working	page.	It’s	a	win-win	situation	for	everyone	involved;	the	linking	
website	gets	to	fix	their	page	consisting	of	the	broken	link	with	very	little	
effort.	You	get	a	high-quality	relevant	link,	and	readers	get	to	avoid	any	
dead	links	while	browsing.	Though	the	concept	itself	is	simple,	it	can	be	
time-consuming	to	come	into	effect.
Google Webmaster
There are various SEO tools out there; one of the most useful tool is
Google Webmaster. It is a tool that is provided to us by Google itself and
it offers us a lot of vital SEO insights. It is a free service that is provided
by Google to anyone who owns a website .It helps you evaluate and
maintain your website’s performance in Search Results. As of May 2015,
Google rebranded Google Webmaster Tools as Google Search Console.
How do we connect our site to Google Webmaster??
To connect our site to Webmaster, we need to go install AddFunc
Header and Footer. It is a plugin that provides us a Site-wide head and
foot tab where you can add codes that you wish to add to our site
header and footer.
• To set up Webmaster, we go to www.google.com/webmasters.
• The next step would be sign in from your Gmail id.
• Next, we add a property to the Search Console. A property could
be your Android App or your own Website.
• You add your website’s URL into the space provided and then
click on ADD A PROPERTY.
• Now to connect Search Console to our site, we have been provided
by two methods: Recommended Method and Alternate method.
We choose the Alternate method where we click on via HTML tag.
• When we click on HTML tag, it generates a unique code for us that
we have to paste in the site wide head of our side.
How do we do that??
• This is done via AddFunc plugin that I informed you about at the
starting of the tutorial. Copy the code and head back to your
website’s dashboard. Over there on the left hand side you will see
a Settings tab, where you will find your plugin AddFunc Header
and Footer. Click on it and it will open the site wide head and
footer for you. Paste the code there and save your changes via
scrolling at the bottom.
• Now, head back to the Search Console and verify your property. It
can take around 7 days before you can see you website’s data on
the Search Console.
After adding your property, the first thing that we come across is the
Dashboard.
Dashboard
You can access all of your website’s data over here. We can also adjust
the settings over here and check if we have any unread messages.
In the left hand side we have all the tools that are at our disposal.
We have three visualizations on the Dashboard. They represent the
Crawl Errors, Search Analytics and Sitemaps.
These are quick glimpses of your site and crawlability.
All of these are shortcuts to the reports, which are present in the left
hand menu.
Messages
Google communicates with us, the webmasters via this Messages option.
Messages will not spam. The best thing here is that you won’t receive
more than a few messages in a month.
Any issue with the site, from 404 errors on our web pages to our site
being infected by any malware.
Search Appearance
Under Search Appearance we have 5 major options that are covered ,
they are : Structured Data, Rich Cards, Data Highlighter, HTML
improvements and lastly Accelerated Mobile Pages.
If we click on the “?” icon that appears to the right of the Search
Appearance, a pop-up appears. The pop-up basically explains us each
element of the SERP.
When we click on each individual elements it gives us an in depth
information as to how to optimize that element and improve it from SEO
perspective.
• Structured Data
Structured data is basically a code that we add on our website. The code
is written in a manner that the search engines are able to understand it.
The search engine reads the code and it helps them understand our
websites better and thus display them in a specific manner. We
highlight or markup data with help of Structured Data Markup Helper.
The Helper is located in Testing Tools, which you can access via Website
tools.
Whatever you have highlighted with the help of Structured Data Markup
Helper, you can check it in Structured Data Testing Tool. The tool is
again present in Testing Tools.
Whatever we highlight or markup, the code for that is generated in 3
languages. They are: Microdata, JSON-Ld and RDF-a.
Microdata is preferred when we want our result to look better and
display in a better manner for Google and Bing.
JSON-Ld is used when I want my results to look better on Google and
Mobiles.
RDF-a is used for better display of results on Yahoo, Bing and Yandex.
When using Structure Data, a markup code is created in
Microdata/JSON-Ld, which then we have to paste in the head of the page
that has been marked or structured.
• Rich Cards
Rich cards are a new Search result format that has been built on the
result of Rich snippets.
Rich snippets display your content in a more engaging way and help
your content display in a better manner. The main focus of Rich cards is
to provide a better mobile use experience.
Rich cards initially have come up mainly for two content categories:
movies and recipes.
• Data Highlighter
The Data Highlighter is an alternative for Structured Data that has been
provided to us by Google Webmaster.
We can highlight or make the important sections of our page/website by
just pointing and clicking the important words or phrases on our page.
When we use Data Highlighter the code that is generated via
highlighting is automatically placed on the head of the page directly.
The only issue that we have when we are using Data highlighter is that
Google can only access the tagged elements; other search engines won’t
be able to access and understand it.
• HTML Improvements
Under HTML improvements we can view the metadata suggestions and
the problems that we are facing when crawler (Googlebot) is crawling
our website.
Meta data consists of our meta-title and meta-descriptions and in HTML
improvements we find any issues related to any of these matters like
missing tags, duplicate descriptions and non-indexable content.
• Accelerated Mobile Pages (AMP)
AMP is an open source-coding standard for publishers. The main aim for
AMP is for publishers to be able to load their sites quickly mobile. As the
desktop resources can be very heavy and plenty there might be a
possibility when loaded on mobile the process might be slow.
So, AMP is a project from Google and Twitter that helps them design fast
mobile pages.
This was in response to Facebook’s Instant Articles project.
The Accelerated Mobile Pages lets us see all the pages that have
implemented AMP. Also it informs us which pages have errors, when
clicked upon the error displays the URLs with errors.
Search Traffic
The Search Traffic reports we can check how many times do we appear
in Google Search Results. We can group data and check it via various
categories offered by Search Console. Thus, we can basically analyze and
understand and improve our site’s performance. We can also check our
backlinks, internal links and the areas, which we want to target via our
domain.
In Search Traffic, we have: -
• Search Analytics
Under this we analyze the performance of our website on Google Search
(SEO perspective) and compare our results on various parameters to
understand how is our website performing.
The parameters are Queries, Pages, Countries, Devices, Search type and
Dates.We can check the Clicks, Impressions, CTR and Position for these
parameters.
• Links to Your Site
This tab gives us the total number of backlinks that exist for our
website.
It also gives us the most often-used anchor text, the site that links us the
most and our most linked page or content.
• Internal Links
We are able to check the amount of internal links that we have created.
All the pages that have been internally linked and the amount of internal
links every page has can be checked via here.
• Manual Actions
Manual Actions report provides instances when a human/user has
decided that the pages on your site are not in compliance with Google’s
Webmaster quality guidelines. The pages can be flagged if they don’t
meet the guidelines. Flagged sites can be demoted or even removed
from the Google Search Results.
• International Targeting
In international targeting we can target an audience on the basis of
either language or country.
• If we have a .com, .org, .biz, then we can geotarget. It helps
us decide how our website appears for geographic queries.
We can choose the countries from a drop down menu, if we
do not wish to associate with any country we can chose the
unlisted option.
• We can target our website for users that speak different
languages. We can do this via using hreflang tags. Google
uses these tags to match users language preference with the
right version of our page.
• Mobile Usability
Mobile Usability reports any errors or issues that your site has with
mobile usability. With majority traffic been driven via mobile devices, it
is a necessity that our website is mobile friendly.
Certain kinds of error that we can come across are: Flash Usage,
Viewport error, Small font size, Touch elements too close etc.
Google Index
The Google Index section reports to us all the issues we can face when
our digital asset (website/app) is being indexed. We can check the
status of our pages, get notifications if any resources are blocked and
finally also remove URLs if we wish to via this tab.
In Google Index we have: -
• Index Status
The index status allows us to keep track of our website with Google
Index. It displays us how many pages have been indexed. It also gives us
the information about how many pages have been blocked by robots.txt
and lastly the pages that we have removed from Google’s Search Results.
when checking the Index Status report we look for Steady rise in graph,
check for any sudden drops and make note if unusually high index
volume for your website.
• Blocked Resources
The crawler or Googlebot has to access many resources on our page so
that it can render and index the page. Resources like JavaScript, CSS,
image files should be available to the bot so that it can see the pages like
a user would.
If these resources are being blocked from Google and the crawler is not
able to see these resources, then you will get a list of blocked resources
within that host.
• Remove URLs
The Remove URLs tool helps us to temporarily block pages from Google
Search Results. When we temporarily remove a URL, the request
remains successful for 90 days.
If you wish to permanently remove the URL, then we need to remove or
update the actual content from your own website and we have to make
sure that our web server return a 404 or 410 error.
We can reinclude the URL by cancelling our 90-day block from Search
Results.
Crawl
Under the crawl section the Search console provides us with all the
issues that will be related to the crawling of our website.
Under Crawl we have Crawl Errors, Crawl Stats, Fetch as Google,
Robots.txt tester, Sitemaps and finally URL parameters.
• Crawl Errors
In the crawl errors reports we are provided details about the URLs that
Google was not able to crawl or gave an HTTP error code.
It provides us with two mains sections: Site Errors and URL errors.
Site Errors
They are of three types: DNS Error, Server Error and Robots Failure.
The site errors display data for the last 90 days.
For a website well functioning website, the site error section should
report 0 errors.
URL Errors
The URL section reports the top 1000 pages or URLs with errors that
need your attention. Every error reported here is not a serious one, but
still they should be checked timely as they might have a negative impact
on the users and Googlebot.
• Crawl Stats
The crawl stats report is only for websites. It provides us information
about Google’s crawler on our website in the last 90 days.
The important thing to understand is crawl stats are only available for
verified websites. Also another important factor is that there isn’t any
good crawl number. We should see a relatively even chart. Sudden
spikes or drops should be a concern and should be looked into
immediately.
• Fetch as Google
It is a very important feature provided to us, webmasters, by the Search
Console.
The fetch as Google tool enables guys to test how Googlebot crawls a
page on our website. We use this tool to see whether Googlebot is able
to access our page and whether all our resources are accessible to the
Googlebot.
It helps us find us issues, if any, on our website or specific webpage.
When we click on Fetch we get the HTTP response, while when we click
on Fetch and Render it fetches that specific URL, displays the HTTP
response and also renders the page accordingly.
• Robots.txt Tester
This tool helps us to check whether Robots.txt blocks the URLs from
Googlebot or Google crawler.
It lets us edit the robots.txt and check for errors for Googlebot,
Googlebot-News, Googlebot-Images, Googlebot-Video, Googlebot-
Mobile, Media partners-Google and Adbot-google.
For the URLs that are disallowed we notice Blocked message, for all
other URLs allowed is displayed.
• Sitemaps
A sitemap is really important, as it is a XML file where we list all our
webpages that we wish Googlebot crawls and indexes. It helps a crawler
understand our site better. It provides metadata about the pages we list
in the sitemap.
A sitemap is required if our website is very large, the content is not
interlinked properly or your website is new.
• URL Parameters
URL parameters are designed for webmasters that want that Google
crawls their website more efficiently. This is a very powerful option
provided to us by google where we inform Google the recommended
action it has to take when it encounters a certain parameter. Great
attention has to be paid while dealing with this section as if we skip or
by mistake leave certain important pages then Google won’t be able to
display them in search results.

How To Create Email Campaigns Using MailChimp
MailChimp offers tools that are simple and make it easy to send attractive email campaigns. In
this course, we take you through the three basic steps of MailChimp—create a customer list,
build a campaign, view and analyse the results.
Let’s go through all the steps required in building a successful email campaign.
Create Your List:
It takes very less time to set up a list when you have a MailChimp account. You just need to
provide your details, add your subscribers’ list and MailChimp will get everything organised for
you.
Follow the steps given below:
1) Click on the Lists page mentioned in the top bar
2) Then click on ‘Create List’
3) Click on the ‘Create List’ option from below
4) Type in the list name and put in all your details and your client details and set a reminder
as to how they landed on your list.
5) Put in the other details and click on the Save button.
6) You will see a notification when your list is created and a set of links in your next steps.
If you already have a list of subscribers, the following section talks about importing
those in just a few steps.
Import Your List:
When it comes to importing from a list, MailChimp does the job for you. You need to
provide them with the subscriber details that you want in your list, and they will guide
you on how to organize and manage the list.
You can add subscribers to your campaign in three different ways:
• Paste or type in the subscriber contact information by yourself.
• Upload the list from a spreadsheet (.csv file)
• Import the list from your CRM (customer relationship management) database like
Zoho, SalesForce, etc.
If you’re working on an Excel file, use the Copy/Paste from file option on the import
screen. If you have a CSV file with all your contacts, upload the file directly by selecting
the CSV file option.
Follow the steps below to upload your contacts from your computer.
1) Navigate to the Lists page.
2) Click on the drop-down menu and select the list you want to work with
and choose Import.
3) Click the button for CSV or tab-delimited file if you have a CSV file or
Copy/Paste from thefile if you have an Excel file.
4) Depending on the method you select, copy and paste your contacts from an
Excel file or click the Browse button to select the CSV file you want to upload.
5) Click Next in the lower-right corner of your screen.
6) On the Import Subscribers page, you’ll have to set a name for each list
column and choose a type, such as first name, last name or email address.
This process makes it easy for us to read the data correctly and maintain the
list in an organised manner.
7) On the Import Checklist, review your import. Click on Edit to make any
changes in the list. When you’re ready to import subscribers from your list,
then click on Import in the lower-right corner.
Create and design your Campaign:
Create your design
MailChimp’s Campaign Builder does all the work from creating to sending an email
campaign. Choose a campaign type, add your customers, select a template, add your
content and send in your design. To make a campaign on MailChimp, navigate to the
Campaigns page, and then select Create Campaign option in the upper-right corner of the
page. To start, it is always recommended that you choose a Regular Campaign.
At the bottom of the page, you can see the Progress Bar, which allows you to navigate
through different steps during the Campaign building process.
Design your Campaign
You can design your mail using the templates already provided in MailChimp. These templates
are very simple to use. You don’t need to know anything about designing or programming to
get your campaign started. Just select one of those predesigned templates, put in your content
and you’re all set to start off your campaign.
Finally when your campaign is ready, navigate to the ‘Confirm’ button, click ‘Send’ and wait for
the reports to roll in.
Reports:
Mailchimp’s report analyses the open rates, click rates, no. of unsubscribers, etc. They provide
an overview of all the data which are most relevant to you about your campaign. To view a
campaign report, head on to the Reports page and select the campaign which you want to
view. Below is an overview of all the important details related to the selected campaign.
Google AdWords 2019
Google Ads is a powerful platform, especially for small businesses. If you know the cost
and margin of your product then Google Ads is a no-brainer.
Businesses often see 3-10X the return on their investment, but many business owners
are still scared to dive in.
Why?
Well because it can be challenging to set up a Google Ads campaign.
Google introduced Google Adwords (now Google Ads) 19 years ago in 2000. Yet, the
essence of Google Ads has not changed in the last two decades.
Google has become a staple of the marketing community. You can see how Google’s
ad revenue has increased since 2001 in the following.
For any business, no matter how big or small, using Google for advertising will bring
insane benefits.
Google Ads allows you to:
1. Take advantage of Google’s immense reach. According to Smart Insights,
Google’s number of daily searches exceeds 3.5 billion.
2. Limit your daily budget and maximum bids to make sure that you’re not spending
more than you’re supposed to.
3. Reach the right customers at the right time. When you are looking for “plumber
(insert city)” you know that person is ready to buy.
4. Get faster results than search engine optimization.
Although many websites still rely on search engine optimization, it often can be months
before your results are indexed by Google. We still recommend SEO, but with Google
Ads you can get organic traffic faster, no wait needed.
This article offers a practical, foolproof guide, to your first campaign on Google
Ads. If you’re reluctant to use Google Ads because it’s your first time, by the end
you will be able to test the waters and be more confident about your next Google
Ads campaigns.
How Does Google Ads Work?
Google AdWords is a marketplace where companies bid on keywords to have their
website show at the top of the search.
In this example, Grubhub was able to outbid Dominos to claim the top spot for the
keyword “pizza delivery.”
However, the highest bid doesn’t always win. Google incentivizes companies to ensure
that the user experience remains high. Google will combine the a quality score (how the
website relates to the keyword) along with the bid amount.
The person with the highest quality score and bid amount wins.
Step #1: Set up Google Ads Account
Setting a Google Ads campaign is really just about following some directions. First of all,
to set your account you need to visit Google Ads Home page and click on the ‘START
NOW’ button.
After you click start now you will see a page where you can put in your website, but I
recommend to leave and navigate to the adwords dashboard. We want to manage the
campaigns from because you have more flexibility and control of the campaign.
Step #2: Start a Google Ads Campaign
After you created your account and navigated to the main dashboard. In the left-hand
column, you will want to click on campaigns.
After you will see a blue button with a “+”. Click the blue button and click “New
campaign”.
On the next page, the first thing you see is an array of options for the “goal” that you
want to achieve.
For 99% of businesses, their main goal will be to convert website traffic into leads. The
main purpose of this area is to allow us and Google to track when an event happened
so you can better track your ROI.
Beneath this section, you will see different campaign types.
In this guide, we will mainly be going over Search campaigns as this is where we will
best be able to track buyers intent for specific services.
Display campaigns are used to help spread awareness of your brand. This is great if
you want more people to know about you. You often see display ads on blogs and other
websites in sidebars. For our campaigns, it is not needed.
The shopping campaign is a new type of campaign for e-commerce businesses. We will
not be able to cover it in this guide, but please message us if you have questions
specifically tailored to e-commerce.
After you select “Search” campaign you will be asked click how you will track your
conversions. We will put in both traffic and phone calls as we want people either coming
to our website and submitting forms or calling us directly.
Click “Continue” and you will be directed to a new page.
Step #3: Define Campaign Audience
We are still creating a campaign, but on this next section, we will get more into the
audience of the campaign.
On the first part, name your campaign as well as make sure that you unselect network
audience.
After this section, you will pick the location that you will want to target.
In this section, you will want to manually put in the location that you want to target. If
you are from Morris, Pennsylvania you can target your exact city.
If you click on “Advanced search” you can also target your location by radius.
Now you will also want to go to “Location options” and select the best options for you.
Not all people might be searching for your keyword in your target area. This can be both
a good thing and a bad thing. For example, if you are looking to rent your apartment to
vacationers then you might want to target people who are outside of your target
location, but searching for your service. However, some people might be searching
“plumber reno, nv” and might be located outside of Reno. This person could be
searching for someone else, could be searching pricing of different areas, etc.
Depending on the campaign you might want to also target these people.
In the next section, you will target all people in your desired language. For audiences,
we will ignore that section. If you are curious you can read about Google Ad audiences.
Step #4: Choosing Your Google Ads Budget
This section often confused people but is a lot easier than you think. With some simple
math, you can figure out how much you should be spending on Google Ads.
In order to know how much you should spend you need to know your profit per sale and
your conversion rate.
If you are a hair salon and your service costs $100 and out of that $100, you make $50
profit then $50 will be your profit per sale.
Your conversions rate is the number of leads or purchases that occur per visit to your
website. If a 1000 people visit your website and 10 people contact you, then that is a
1% conversion rate.
Would you be willing to make $20 dollars per customer instead of $50? That means you
would be able to pay $300 dollars (3X10) to gain 10 new customers. So for 1000 clicks
at a 1% conversion, you could pay $0.30 per click.
If you can spend $75 dollars a week ($300 dollars a month) you should acquire 10 new
customers a month. Your daily ad budget would be $10 dollars roughly a day.
Now that we calculated our daily budget input it on the page as well as the delivery
method. We normally choose standard for the delivery method. The difference between
standard and accelerated is in the standard delivery they will optimize your budget over
a week, but in the accelerated, they might spend it all on one day.
Step #5: Defining Your Google Ads Bidding Strategy
The next section is the area where you put your bidding strategy.
There are several strategies that you can utilize to help maximize your budget, but for
now, we will start with a manual cost per acquisition.
In the advanced strategies, you can set it so that Google will automatically raise or
lower bid amounts in order to get the best conversion rates at any one time.
For our example, we’ll set the target cost per action as $30 dollars. As you progress
your ad campaign you can begin to lower this number to get the most out of your ad
budget.
Step #6: Google Ad Extensions (DO NOT FORGET
THIS)
Google Ad extensions are probably the number one thing that people miss when
making their ads.
Let’s take a look at these live examples I just pulled from the internet.
In the first example, the add is one sentence. The ad appears small and does not grab
your attention. Now, look at the second one. They are using all of their available ad
extensions. They have a full ad description, services outlined, as well as immediate site
links.
The second appears to have more authority than one and three, gives more information
immediately to the potential customer, and has a better click-through rate. Click through
rate is the number of people who view your ad and click. The higher the click-through
rate the better the quality score you get. As we discussed above, the higher the quality
score the less you will pay per click.
Sitelink extensions require a URL and appear in blue. These link directly to a page on
your website. Normally you will list your most popular services here. Callout extensions
are not linkable and appear above site links. For callout extensions, you should put the
benefits of working with your company.
The last one is a call extension. It drives me nuts when I see ads without call
extensions. The majority of traffic is on mobile now. Google makes it incredibly easy to
call you directly from your number provided. Additionally, if someone calls you without
clicking on the link, putting the number in manually, that is a free lead! We LOVE free
leads. So please make sure you put a number.
Step #7: Ad Set Preparation and Keyword Research
Normally for most companies, you only need one campaign. However, a campaign will
have multiple ad sets.
An ad set is a group of keywords in which you would like to target to advertise to. If you
are a construction company perhaps you offer drywall removal, concrete pouring, and
other services. Drywall removal and concrete pouring would be two ad sets.
So first we need to do some keyword research. Google provides you with an amazing
tool, Google Keyword Planner. In the keyword planner, we will be able to find all the
relevant keywords that we need, the volume that they are searched per month, as well
as the amount it costs to bid on the keywords.
So when you get to the keyword planner you will see two boxes. We will choose the
option to find new keywords.
After you click, “find new keywords” we will enter one keyword that we want other
relevant ones for. In our case, we are using “drywall company” as a keyword.
When we hit enter we will be taken to a page where we can see all the relevant
keywords, the search volume, cost per click (although normally I find it is significantly
cheaper than what they say), and other useful information.
Here we will start collecting keywords. I normally put them in a spreadsheet so we can
manage the keywords for each company easily and across our team, but you can copy
and paste them into the ad set.
Here you will get a good idea of what other people are searching for. You need to be
intuitive about your customer to understand what someone might search and if that
customer who searches a keyword is your ideal client. For example, someone who
searches for a contractor vs a company might be looking to work individually with
someone. Depending on your company this person might not be a good fit.
Now we need to go back and insert them into our campaign. However, before we do we
need to talk about the different ways we can target these keywords.
Google used to only target keywords broadly, but they are always changing the
platform. The recently added in broad match modifiers.
PAY ATTENTION: THIS IS WHERE PEOPLE LOSE MONEY
RELATED: 8 Frequent Keyword Research Mistakes that increases the loss in
PPC
There are four main categories, broad match, exact match, phrase match, and broad
match modifiers.
Most people fall into the mistake of putting all the keywords as broad match. You do this
by just putting in the word without quotations, pluses, or brackets. If your keyword is
shoe you will show up anytime the word shoe shows up in a search regardless of the
other words around it.
For all small and medium-size businesses, you do not want to be doing broad match at
all. Generally, people only use broad match for brand names and brand awareness. We
want to be much more targeted.
Great campaigns are made up of exact matches, phrase matches, and broad match
modifiers.
For exact matches, you will put the word in brackets. So for example [dry waller] would
mean that your ad would only show up when someone types in the keyword exactly as
shown. Normally this is too strict because most people will not type only this keyword.
So we also want to use phrase match, “dry waller” and broad match modifiers
+dry+waller. In phrase matches, you will also show for people who are looking for “dry
waller near me”, “dry waller (insert city)”, “best drywallers”, etc. While for broad match
modifiers you will appear for “drywallers”, “drywalers” “dry wallers nearme” and any
close spelling of your keyword.
We generally recommend that for each keyword you put in the exact, phrase, and
modified version of the keyword.
Now you will need to add in as many keywords as needed for each ad set and create as
many ad sets (services) as needed.
After you are done creating your ad sets we will move on and make ads for each ad set.
Step #8: Crafting High Quality Google Ads
Now it’s time to start creating your ad. Here you are required to create two headlines,
and the total amount of symbols in each of them should not exceed 30.
You should think carefully when creating headlines for your Google Ads campaign.
Wrong headlines might be the reason why your Google Ads results suck. Google
recommends using some of the keywords when creating headlines for your campaign.
When you’ve come up with the headlines, it’s time to create a short description, which
should not contain more than 80 symbols. It is also recommended to use keywords in
your description as well as point out benefits.
We are going to look at examples of good ad copy.
The main headline gives the name of the doctor as well as a keyword in the title “back
pain relief”. They point out that they have flexible hours and they also have a call to
action at the end.
They could supercharge their ad with better ad copy, but in comparison to the first one,
it has a better copy.
You want to be specific in your ad copy. You only have a few seconds to grab your
potential customers attention.
Step #9: Optimizing Google Ad Campagin
For the most part, your campaign is set up. Now you will need to enter your billing
information and publish your first campaign. Congrats!
However, it does not end there! Now that you have the campaign running you need to
get data and start optimizing it for peak performance.
To optimize you need to start gathering data so you can start refining. You will first want
to start taking out keywords that you do not want to show up for. You can add these
keywords to your negative keywords list.
Then the next import part is to increase budgets on the ad sets or keywords that are
outperforming and cut the ones that are underperforming. We generally find that a
majority of the conversions will come from a handful of the keywords. The problem is we
do not know which ones will convert. So as your campaign runs for longer periods of
time then you will be able to squeeze more and more out of your budget getting more
customers at a lower cost per click.
Conclusion
Crafting a Google Ads campaign is as much an art as it is a science. You have to use
the data you are given to speak to real consumers. You have to out-compete your
competition and stand out.

and analyze those subsets of data so you can examine and respond to the
component trends in your business.
Session- A session is a group of interactions that take place on your website
within a given time frame. A single user can open multiple sessions. As soon as
one session ends, there is then an opportunity to start a new session. There are
two methods by which a session ends: 1) Time Based and 2) Campaign Based.

The speed and ease with which the digital media transmits information and help boost a business is amazing. Let us first throw some light on the scope of digital marketing. What is Digital Marketing? Digital Marketing is the term used for the targeted, measurable, and interactive marketing of products or services using digital technologies to reach the viewers, turn them into customers, and retain them. So, how is digital marketing different from traditional marketing? The traditional manner of marketing involved businesses to advertise their products or services on print media, radio and television commercials, business cards, bill boards, and in many other similar ways where Internet or social media websites were not employed for advertising. Traditional marketing policies had limited customer reachability and scope of driving customers’ buying behavior. Digital marketing achieves targets of marketing a business through different online channels. Let us see how. The following table lists a few points that differentiate digital marketing from traditional marketing − Traditional Marketing Digital Marketing Communication is unidirectional. Means, a business communicates about its products or services with a group of people. Communication is bidirectional. The customer also can ask queries or make suggestions about the business products and services. Medium of communication is generally phone calls, letters, and Emails.

It is then made to reach the specific audience by employing search engine techniques. It is conventional way of marketing; best for reaching local audience. It is best for reaching global audience. It is difficult to measure the effectiveness of a campaign. It is easier to measure the effectiveness of a campaign through analytics. Social Media Marketing Social Media Marketing is the manner of generating website traffic or attracting viewers and customers through social networking websites such as Facebook, Pinterest, LinkedIn, Twitter, and so on. Social media marketing is a subset of digital marketing. All social networking websites support sharing of content, but all are not necessarily employed for digital marketing. While Facebook emphasizes on personal sharing, Twitter emphasizes on tweeting short messages about ones’ opinions or reactions, and LinkedIn goes for professional networking, Pinterest motivates to market one’s ideas and online businesses. Principle of Social Media Marketing Social media grew up as the most popular outcome of the Internet as people around the world like to communicate and share their special moments, problems, ideas, and suggestions with others. They also like to learn about a place worth visiting, a new craft projects, recipes, or a new language. Social media websites enable you to share content of your choice with right audience at your convenience. This popularity of social media has inspired the business minds around the world with the idea of small online businesses. One can open a store in Amazon, eBay, or any other custom platforms such as Shopify or Etsy. But the main challenge is finding the customers. There are ways like search results in Google, Bing or in any other search

The basic technique here is to share engaging posts and the right content created for the desired audience. Then the audience helps by sharing the content further, which in turn reaches further. Hence there is another option of advertising the product, services, or ideas on the social networking websites where there is less degree of competition.

  • 61. • Skyscraper Method STEPS: 1) Select a keyword to target The first step in the skyscraper method is to find a keyword that you want to target related to your field and find content related to this keyword that already has a considerable amount of links to it. 2) Create a better content Make content related to your keyword even better than all the contents that are accessible out there. 3) Get high-quality links and reach out to people through e-mail campaigns Start letting people know about your amazing content and find authentic sites in your niche to link to you using the email outreach plans. • Broken Link Building Method STEPS: 1) Identifying external broken links on various websites Broken link building is the procedure of identifying external broken links on different websites (using Check My Links extension on Google Chrome), where the broken link is directing to a content similar to an article you have already made. 2) Getting the broken link replaced The main aim is to get the broken link replaced with the link to your working page. It’s a win-win situation for everyone involved; the linking website gets to fix their page consisting of the broken link with very little effort. You get a high-quality relevant link, and readers get to avoid any dead links while browsing. Though the concept itself is simple, it can be time-consuming to come into effect.
  • 62. Google Webmaster There are various SEO tools out there; one of the most useful tool is Google Webmaster. It is a tool that is provided to us by Google itself and it offers us a lot of vital SEO insights. It is a free service that is provided by Google to anyone who owns a website .It helps you evaluate and maintain your website’s performance in Search Results. As of May 2015, Google rebranded Google Webmaster Tools as Google Search Console. How do we connect our site to Google Webmaster?? To connect our site to Webmaster, we need to go install AddFunc Header and Footer. It is a plugin that provides us a Site-wide head and foot tab where you can add codes that you wish to add to our site header and footer. • To set up Webmaster, we go to www.google.com/webmasters. • The next step would be sign in from your Gmail id. • Next, we add a property to the Search Console. A property could be your Android App or your own Website.
  • 63. • You add your website’s URL into the space provided and then click on ADD A PROPERTY. • Now to connect Search Console to our site, we have been provided by two methods: Recommended Method and Alternate method. We choose the Alternate method where we click on via HTML tag. • When we click on HTML tag, it generates a unique code for us that we have to paste in the site wide head of our side.
  • 64. How do we do that?? • This is done via AddFunc plugin that I informed you about at the starting of the tutorial. Copy the code and head back to your website’s dashboard. Over there on the left hand side you will see a Settings tab, where you will find your plugin AddFunc Header and Footer. Click on it and it will open the site wide head and footer for you. Paste the code there and save your changes via scrolling at the bottom. • Now, head back to the Search Console and verify your property. It can take around 7 days before you can see you website’s data on the Search Console.
  • 65. After adding your property, the first thing that we come across is the Dashboard. Dashboard You can access all of your website’s data over here. We can also adjust the settings over here and check if we have any unread messages. In the left hand side we have all the tools that are at our disposal. We have three visualizations on the Dashboard. They represent the Crawl Errors, Search Analytics and Sitemaps. These are quick glimpses of your site and crawlability. All of these are shortcuts to the reports, which are present in the left hand menu. Messages Google communicates with us, the webmasters via this Messages option. Messages will not spam. The best thing here is that you won’t receive more than a few messages in a month. Any issue with the site, from 404 errors on our web pages to our site being infected by any malware.
  • 66. Search Appearance Under Search Appearance we have 5 major options that are covered , they are : Structured Data, Rich Cards, Data Highlighter, HTML improvements and lastly Accelerated Mobile Pages. If we click on the “?” icon that appears to the right of the Search Appearance, a pop-up appears. The pop-up basically explains us each element of the SERP. When we click on each individual elements it gives us an in depth information as to how to optimize that element and improve it from SEO perspective. • Structured Data Structured data is basically a code that we add on our website. The code is written in a manner that the search engines are able to understand it. The search engine reads the code and it helps them understand our
  • 67. websites better and thus display them in a specific manner. We highlight or markup data with help of Structured Data Markup Helper. The Helper is located in Testing Tools, which you can access via Website tools. Whatever you have highlighted with the help of Structured Data Markup Helper, you can check it in Structured Data Testing Tool. The tool is again present in Testing Tools. Whatever we highlight or markup, the code for that is generated in 3 languages. They are: Microdata, JSON-Ld and RDF-a. Microdata is preferred when we want our result to look better and display in a better manner for Google and Bing. JSON-Ld is used when I want my results to look better on Google and Mobiles. RDF-a is used for better display of results on Yahoo, Bing and Yandex. When using Structure Data, a markup code is created in Microdata/JSON-Ld, which then we have to paste in the head of the page that has been marked or structured.
  • 68. • Rich Cards Rich cards are a new Search result format that has been built on the result of Rich snippets. Rich snippets display your content in a more engaging way and help your content display in a better manner. The main focus of Rich cards is to provide a better mobile use experience. Rich cards initially have come up mainly for two content categories: movies and recipes.
  • 69. • Data Highlighter The Data Highlighter is an alternative for Structured Data that has been provided to us by Google Webmaster. We can highlight or make the important sections of our page/website by just pointing and clicking the important words or phrases on our page. When we use Data Highlighter the code that is generated via highlighting is automatically placed on the head of the page directly. The only issue that we have when we are using Data highlighter is that Google can only access the tagged elements; other search engines won’t be able to access and understand it. • HTML Improvements Under HTML improvements we can view the metadata suggestions and the problems that we are facing when crawler (Googlebot) is crawling our website. Meta data consists of our meta-title and meta-descriptions and in HTML improvements we find any issues related to any of these matters like missing tags, duplicate descriptions and non-indexable content.
  • 70. • Accelerated Mobile Pages (AMP) AMP is an open source-coding standard for publishers. The main aim for AMP is for publishers to be able to load their sites quickly mobile. As the desktop resources can be very heavy and plenty there might be a possibility when loaded on mobile the process might be slow. So, AMP is a project from Google and Twitter that helps them design fast mobile pages. This was in response to Facebook’s Instant Articles project. The Accelerated Mobile Pages lets us see all the pages that have implemented AMP. Also it informs us which pages have errors, when clicked upon the error displays the URLs with errors. Search Traffic The Search Traffic reports we can check how many times do we appear in Google Search Results. We can group data and check it via various categories offered by Search Console. Thus, we can basically analyze and
  • 71. understand and improve our site’s performance. We can also check our backlinks, internal links and the areas, which we want to target via our domain. In Search Traffic, we have: - • Search Analytics Under this we analyze the performance of our website on Google Search (SEO perspective) and compare our results on various parameters to understand how is our website performing. The parameters are Queries, Pages, Countries, Devices, Search type and Dates.We can check the Clicks, Impressions, CTR and Position for these parameters. • Links to Your Site This tab gives us the total number of backlinks that exist for our website. It also gives us the most often-used anchor text, the site that links us the most and our most linked page or content.
  • 72. • Internal Links We are able to check the amount of internal links that we have created. All the pages that have been internally linked and the amount of internal links every page has can be checked via here.
  • 73. • Manual Actions Manual Actions report provides instances when a human/user has decided that the pages on your site are not in compliance with Google’s Webmaster quality guidelines. The pages can be flagged if they don’t meet the guidelines. Flagged sites can be demoted or even removed from the Google Search Results. • International Targeting In international targeting we can target an audience on the basis of either language or country. • If we have a .com, .org, .biz, then we can geotarget. It helps us decide how our website appears for geographic queries. We can choose the countries from a drop down menu, if we do not wish to associate with any country we can chose the unlisted option. • We can target our website for users that speak different languages. We can do this via using hreflang tags. Google uses these tags to match users language preference with the right version of our page.
  • 74. • Mobile Usability Mobile Usability reports any errors or issues that your site has with mobile usability. With majority traffic been driven via mobile devices, it is a necessity that our website is mobile friendly. Certain kinds of error that we can come across are: Flash Usage, Viewport error, Small font size, Touch elements too close etc.
  • 75. Google Index The Google Index section reports to us all the issues we can face when our digital asset (website/app) is being indexed. We can check the status of our pages, get notifications if any resources are blocked and finally also remove URLs if we wish to via this tab. In Google Index we have: - • Index Status The index status allows us to keep track of our website with Google Index. It displays us how many pages have been indexed. It also gives us the information about how many pages have been blocked by robots.txt and lastly the pages that we have removed from Google’s Search Results. when checking the Index Status report we look for Steady rise in graph, check for any sudden drops and make note if unusually high index volume for your website.
  • 76. • Blocked Resources The crawler or Googlebot has to access many resources on our page so that it can render and index the page. Resources like JavaScript, CSS, image files should be available to the bot so that it can see the pages like a user would. If these resources are being blocked from Google and the crawler is not able to see these resources, then you will get a list of blocked resources within that host. • Remove URLs The Remove URLs tool helps us to temporarily block pages from Google Search Results. When we temporarily remove a URL, the request remains successful for 90 days.
  • 77. If you wish to permanently remove the URL, then we need to remove or update the actual content from your own website and we have to make sure that our web server return a 404 or 410 error. We can reinclude the URL by cancelling our 90-day block from Search Results. Crawl Under the crawl section the Search console provides us with all the issues that will be related to the crawling of our website. Under Crawl we have Crawl Errors, Crawl Stats, Fetch as Google, Robots.txt tester, Sitemaps and finally URL parameters. • Crawl Errors In the crawl errors reports we are provided details about the URLs that Google was not able to crawl or gave an HTTP error code. It provides us with two mains sections: Site Errors and URL errors. Site Errors
  • 78. They are of three types: DNS Error, Server Error and Robots Failure. The site errors display data for the last 90 days. For a website well functioning website, the site error section should report 0 errors. URL Errors The URL section reports the top 1000 pages or URLs with errors that need your attention. Every error reported here is not a serious one, but still they should be checked timely as they might have a negative impact on the users and Googlebot. • Crawl Stats The crawl stats report is only for websites. It provides us information about Google’s crawler on our website in the last 90 days. The important thing to understand is crawl stats are only available for verified websites. Also another important factor is that there isn’t any good crawl number. We should see a relatively even chart. Sudden spikes or drops should be a concern and should be looked into immediately.
  • 79. • Fetch as Google It is a very important feature provided to us, webmasters, by the Search Console. The fetch as Google tool enables guys to test how Googlebot crawls a page on our website. We use this tool to see whether Googlebot is able to access our page and whether all our resources are accessible to the Googlebot. It helps us find us issues, if any, on our website or specific webpage.
  • 80. When we click on Fetch we get the HTTP response, while when we click on Fetch and Render it fetches that specific URL, displays the HTTP response and also renders the page accordingly. • Robots.txt Tester This tool helps us to check whether Robots.txt blocks the URLs from Googlebot or Google crawler. It lets us edit the robots.txt and check for errors for Googlebot, Googlebot-News, Googlebot-Images, Googlebot-Video, Googlebot- Mobile, Media partners-Google and Adbot-google. For the URLs that are disallowed we notice Blocked message, for all other URLs allowed is displayed.
  • 81. • Sitemaps A sitemap is really important, as it is a XML file where we list all our webpages that we wish Googlebot crawls and indexes. It helps a crawler understand our site better. It provides metadata about the pages we list in the sitemap. A sitemap is required if our website is very large, the content is not interlinked properly or your website is new. • URL Parameters URL parameters are designed for webmasters that want that Google crawls their website more efficiently. This is a very powerful option provided to us by google where we inform Google the recommended action it has to take when it encounters a certain parameter. Great attention has to be paid while dealing with this section as if we skip or by mistake leave certain important pages then Google won’t be able to display them in search results.

In this course, we take you through the three basic steps of MailChimp—create a customer list, build a campaign, view and analyse the results. Let’s go through all the steps required in building a successful email campaign. Create Your List: It takes very less time to set up a list when you have a MailChimp account. You just need to provide your details, add your subscribers’ list and MailChimp will get everything organised for you. Follow the steps given below: 1) Click on the Lists page mentioned in the top bar 2) Then click on ‘Create List’ 3) Click on the ‘Create List’ option from below 4) Type in the list name and put in all your details and your client details and set a reminder as to how they landed on your list.
  • 87. 5) Put in the other details and click on the Save button. 6) You will see a notification when your list is created and a set of links in your next steps. If you already have a list of subscribers, the following section talks about importing those in just a few steps. Import Your List: When it comes to importing from a list, MailChimp does the job for you. You need to provide them with the subscriber details that you want in your list, and they will guide you on how to organize and manage the list.
  • 88. You can add subscribers to your campaign in three different ways: • Paste or type in the subscriber contact information by yourself. • Upload the list from a spreadsheet (.csv file) • Import the list from your CRM (customer relationship management) database like Zoho, SalesForce, etc. If you’re working on an Excel file, use the Copy/Paste from file option on the import screen. If you have a CSV file with all your contacts, upload the file directly by selecting the CSV file option. Follow the steps below to upload your contacts from your computer. 1) Navigate to the Lists page. 2) Click on the drop-down menu and select the list you want to work with and choose Import. 3) Click the button for CSV or tab-delimited file if you have a CSV file or Copy/Paste from thefile if you have an Excel file. 4) Depending on the method you select, copy and paste your contacts from an Excel file or click the Browse button to select the CSV file you want to upload. 5) Click Next in the lower-right corner of your screen. 6) On the Import Subscribers page, you’ll have to set a name for each list column and choose a type, such as first name, last name or email address. This process makes it easy for us to read the data correctly and maintain the list in an organised manner.
  • 89. 7) On the Import Checklist, review your import. Click on Edit to make any changes in the list. When you’re ready to import subscribers from your list, then click on Import in the lower-right corner. Create and design your Campaign: Create your design MailChimp’s Campaign Builder does all the work from creating to sending an email campaign. Choose a campaign type, add your customers, select a template, add your content and send in your design. To make a campaign on MailChimp, navigate to the Campaigns page, and then select Create Campaign option in the upper-right corner of the page. To start, it is always recommended that you choose a Regular Campaign. At the bottom of the page, you can see the Progress Bar, which allows you to navigate through different steps during the Campaign building process.
  • 90. Design your Campaign You can design your mail using the templates already provided in MailChimp. These templates are very simple to use. You don’t need to know anything about designing or programming to get your campaign started. Just select one of those predesigned templates, put in your content and you’re all set to start off your campaign. Finally when your campaign is ready, navigate to the ‘Confirm’ button, click ‘Send’ and wait for the reports to roll in. Reports: Mailchimp’s report analyses the open rates, click rates, no. of unsubscribers, etc. They provide an overview of all the data which are most relevant to you about your campaign. To view a campaign report, head on to the Reports page and select the campaign which you want to view. Below is an overview of all the important details related to the selected campaign.

  • 92. Google AdWords 2019 Google Ads is a powerful platform, especially for small businesses. If you know the cost and margin of your product then Google Ads is a no-brainer. Businesses often see 3-10X the return on their investment, but many business owners are still scared to dive in. Why? Well because it can be challenging to set up a Google Ads campaign. Google introduced Google Adwords (now Google Ads) 19 years ago in 2000. Yet, the essence of Google Ads has not changed in the last two decades. Google has become a staple of the marketing community. You can see how Google’s ad revenue has increased since 2001 in the following.
  • 93. For any business, no matter how big or small, using Google for advertising will bring insane benefits. Google Ads allows you to: 1. Take advantage of Google’s immense reach. According to Smart Insights, Google’s number of daily searches exceeds 3.5 billion. 2. Limit your daily budget and maximum bids to make sure that you’re not spending more than you’re supposed to. 3. Reach the right customers at the right time. When you are looking for “plumber (insert city)” you know that person is ready to buy. 4. Get faster results than search engine optimization. Although many websites still rely on search engine optimization, it often can be months before your results are indexed by Google. We still recommend SEO, but with Google Ads you can get organic traffic faster, no wait needed. This article offers a practical, foolproof guide, to your first campaign on Google Ads. If you’re reluctant to use Google Ads because it’s your first time, by the end you will be able to test the waters and be more confident about your next Google Ads campaigns. How Does Google Ads Work? Google AdWords is a marketplace where companies bid on keywords to have their website show at the top of the search.
  • 94. In this example, Grubhub was able to outbid Dominos to claim the top spot for the keyword “pizza delivery.” However, the highest bid doesn’t always win. Google incentivizes companies to ensure that the user experience remains high. Google will combine the a quality score (how the website relates to the keyword) along with the bid amount. The person with the highest quality score and bid amount wins. Step #1: Set up Google Ads Account Setting a Google Ads campaign is really just about following some directions. First of all, to set your account you need to visit Google Ads Home page and click on the ‘START NOW’ button.
  • 95. After you click start now you will see a page where you can put in your website, but I recommend to leave and navigate to the adwords dashboard. We want to manage the campaigns from because you have more flexibility and control of the campaign. Step #2: Start a Google Ads Campaign After you created your account and navigated to the main dashboard. In the left-hand column, you will want to click on campaigns. After you will see a blue button with a “+”. Click the blue button and click “New campaign”. On the next page, the first thing you see is an array of options for the “goal” that you want to achieve.
  • 96. For 99% of businesses, their main goal will be to convert website traffic into leads. The main purpose of this area is to allow us and Google to track when an event happened so you can better track your ROI. Beneath this section, you will see different campaign types. In this guide, we will mainly be going over Search campaigns as this is where we will best be able to track buyers intent for specific services.
  • 97. Display campaigns are used to help spread awareness of your brand. This is great if you want more people to know about you. You often see display ads on blogs and other websites in sidebars. For our campaigns, it is not needed. The shopping campaign is a new type of campaign for e-commerce businesses. We will not be able to cover it in this guide, but please message us if you have questions specifically tailored to e-commerce. After you select “Search” campaign you will be asked click how you will track your conversions. We will put in both traffic and phone calls as we want people either coming to our website and submitting forms or calling us directly. Click “Continue” and you will be directed to a new page. Step #3: Define Campaign Audience We are still creating a campaign, but on this next section, we will get more into the audience of the campaign. On the first part, name your campaign as well as make sure that you unselect network audience.
  • 98. After this section, you will pick the location that you will want to target. In this section, you will want to manually put in the location that you want to target. If you are from Morris, Pennsylvania you can target your exact city. If you click on “Advanced search” you can also target your location by radius.
  • 99. Now you will also want to go to “Location options” and select the best options for you. Not all people might be searching for your keyword in your target area. This can be both a good thing and a bad thing. For example, if you are looking to rent your apartment to vacationers then you might want to target people who are outside of your target location, but searching for your service. However, some people might be searching “plumber reno, nv” and might be located outside of Reno. This person could be
  • 100. searching for someone else, could be searching pricing of different areas, etc. Depending on the campaign you might want to also target these people. In the next section, you will target all people in your desired language. For audiences, we will ignore that section. If you are curious you can read about Google Ad audiences. Step #4: Choosing Your Google Ads Budget This section often confused people but is a lot easier than you think. With some simple math, you can figure out how much you should be spending on Google Ads. In order to know how much you should spend you need to know your profit per sale and your conversion rate. If you are a hair salon and your service costs $100 and out of that $100, you make $50 profit then $50 will be your profit per sale. Your conversions rate is the number of leads or purchases that occur per visit to your website. If a 1000 people visit your website and 10 people contact you, then that is a 1% conversion rate. Would you be willing to make $20 dollars per customer instead of $50? That means you would be able to pay $300 dollars (3X10) to gain 10 new customers. So for 1000 clicks at a 1% conversion, you could pay $0.30 per click. If you can spend $75 dollars a week ($300 dollars a month) you should acquire 10 new customers a month. Your daily ad budget would be $10 dollars roughly a day.
  • 101. Now that we calculated our daily budget input it on the page as well as the delivery method. We normally choose standard for the delivery method. The difference between standard and accelerated is in the standard delivery they will optimize your budget over a week, but in the accelerated, they might spend it all on one day. Step #5: Defining Your Google Ads Bidding Strategy The next section is the area where you put your bidding strategy.
  • 102. There are several strategies that you can utilize to help maximize your budget, but for now, we will start with a manual cost per acquisition. In the advanced strategies, you can set it so that Google will automatically raise or lower bid amounts in order to get the best conversion rates at any one time. For our example, we’ll set the target cost per action as $30 dollars. As you progress your ad campaign you can begin to lower this number to get the most out of your ad budget. Step #6: Google Ad Extensions (DO NOT FORGET THIS) Google Ad extensions are probably the number one thing that people miss when making their ads. Let’s take a look at these live examples I just pulled from the internet.
  • 103. In the first example, the add is one sentence. The ad appears small and does not grab your attention. Now, look at the second one. They are using all of their available ad extensions. They have a full ad description, services outlined, as well as immediate site links. The second appears to have more authority than one and three, gives more information immediately to the potential customer, and has a better click-through rate. Click through rate is the number of people who view your ad and click. The higher the click-through rate the better the quality score you get. As we discussed above, the higher the quality score the less you will pay per click.
  • 104. Sitelink extensions require a URL and appear in blue. These link directly to a page on your website. Normally you will list your most popular services here. Callout extensions are not linkable and appear above site links. For callout extensions, you should put the benefits of working with your company. The last one is a call extension. It drives me nuts when I see ads without call extensions. The majority of traffic is on mobile now. Google makes it incredibly easy to call you directly from your number provided. Additionally, if someone calls you without clicking on the link, putting the number in manually, that is a free lead! We LOVE free leads. So please make sure you put a number. Step #7: Ad Set Preparation and Keyword Research Normally for most companies, you only need one campaign. However, a campaign will have multiple ad sets.
  • 105. An ad set is a group of keywords in which you would like to target to advertise to. If you are a construction company perhaps you offer drywall removal, concrete pouring, and other services. Drywall removal and concrete pouring would be two ad sets. So first we need to do some keyword research. Google provides you with an amazing tool, Google Keyword Planner. In the keyword planner, we will be able to find all the relevant keywords that we need, the volume that they are searched per month, as well as the amount it costs to bid on the keywords. So when you get to the keyword planner you will see two boxes. We will choose the option to find new keywords. After you click, “find new keywords” we will enter one keyword that we want other relevant ones for. In our case, we are using “drywall company” as a keyword.
  • 106. When we hit enter we will be taken to a page where we can see all the relevant keywords, the search volume, cost per click (although normally I find it is significantly cheaper than what they say), and other useful information. Here we will start collecting keywords. I normally put them in a spreadsheet so we can manage the keywords for each company easily and across our team, but you can copy and paste them into the ad set. Here you will get a good idea of what other people are searching for. You need to be intuitive about your customer to understand what someone might search and if that customer who searches a keyword is your ideal client. For example, someone who searches for a contractor vs a company might be looking to work individually with someone. Depending on your company this person might not be a good fit.
  • 107. Now we need to go back and insert them into our campaign. However, before we do we need to talk about the different ways we can target these keywords. Google used to only target keywords broadly, but they are always changing the platform. The recently added in broad match modifiers. PAY ATTENTION: THIS IS WHERE PEOPLE LOSE MONEY
  • 108. RELATED: 8 Frequent Keyword Research Mistakes that increases the loss in PPC There are four main categories, broad match, exact match, phrase match, and broad match modifiers. Most people fall into the mistake of putting all the keywords as broad match. You do this by just putting in the word without quotations, pluses, or brackets. If your keyword is shoe you will show up anytime the word shoe shows up in a search regardless of the other words around it. For all small and medium-size businesses, you do not want to be doing broad match at all. Generally, people only use broad match for brand names and brand awareness. We want to be much more targeted. Great campaigns are made up of exact matches, phrase matches, and broad match modifiers. For exact matches, you will put the word in brackets. So for example [dry waller] would mean that your ad would only show up when someone types in the keyword exactly as shown. Normally this is too strict because most people will not type only this keyword. So we also want to use phrase match, “dry waller” and broad match modifiers +dry+waller. In phrase matches, you will also show for people who are looking for “dry waller near me”, “dry waller (insert city)”, “best drywallers”, etc. While for broad match modifiers you will appear for “drywallers”, “drywalers” “dry wallers nearme” and any close spelling of your keyword. We generally recommend that for each keyword you put in the exact, phrase, and modified version of the keyword.
  • 109. Now you will need to add in as many keywords as needed for each ad set and create as many ad sets (services) as needed. After you are done creating your ad sets we will move on and make ads for each ad set. Step #8: Crafting High Quality Google Ads Now it’s time to start creating your ad. Here you are required to create two headlines, and the total amount of symbols in each of them should not exceed 30.
  • 110. You should think carefully when creating headlines for your Google Ads campaign. Wrong headlines might be the reason why your Google Ads results suck. Google recommends using some of the keywords when creating headlines for your campaign.

You only have a few seconds to grab your potential customers attention. Step #9: Optimizing Google Ad Campagin For the most part, your campaign is set up. Now you will need to enter your billing information and publish your first campaign. Congrats! However, it does not end there! Now that you have the campaign running you need to get data and start optimizing it for peak performance. To optimize you need to start gathering data so you can start refining. You will first want to start taking out keywords that you do not want to show up for. You can add these keywords to your negative keywords list.
