Why Have Marketing “Rules?”
Gives structure to marketing discussions & decisions
Provides an easy reference point for new Mozzers
Gives us standards against which we compare our work
Ensures TAGFEE (our core values) is part of marketing
Helps tell us what NOT to do (a critical part of strategy)
Empowers every Mozzer to be a marketer
#1: Help Marketers Succeed
We Start with Empathy
Helping Marketers Across Many Mediums
Empathy Applied to Content Creation

http://moz.com/blog/the-web-developers-seo-cheat-sheet-2013-edition
Our Approach to Design & UX
No barriers to access

No lead capture forms
No interstitials
No registration required

Anyone can
share, use, modify or
visuals
Go Above & Beyond to Help 1:1
#2: Education Before Conversion
The Path to Conversion is Long & Winding

It Might Start by Exposure through Media
The Path to Conversion is Long & Winding

Which Triggers an Informational Query
The Path to Conversion is Long & Winding

That Leads to a Follow on a Social Media
The Path to Conversion is Long & Winding

And Consumption of Content from the Brand
The Path to Conversion is Long & Winding

Then You Check Out Some Free Tools
The Path to Conversion is Long & Winding

And Finally Decide to Give the Product a Spin
We Seek to Be Relevant at Every Stage
Different Tactics to Reach Different Stages
We Bias Against “Pushy” Marketing

Sigh… This does not make me love your brand.
Educational Content Earns Far More Amplification
#3: Quality Over Quantity
We Invest Heavily in “Big” Content

http://moz.com/blog/why-big-content-is-worth-the-risk
1-2 Posts/Day Maximum
We don’t cover the news

Or try to be everything to
everyone
We maintain a unique
focus on helping
marketers succeed
Strong Filters on UGC
Google Seems to Be Rewarding Better > More

http://moz.com/blog/google-is-changing-long-tail-search-with-efforts-like-hummingbirdwhiteboard-friday
#4: Mend Broken Windows
in Comments & Community
Broken Windows Lead to Bad Communities
e.g. YouTube
comments, which are
the best way I know
of to lose faith in
humanity’s future.
Comments Need Careful Moderation

Our community team watches
threads like hawks
Off-Site Content Gets Attention Too

We keep an eye
out on dozens of
sites on the web
where our brand
gets mentioned or
our community
participates.
#5: Measure Everything Possible
Marketing Metrics Dashboard
Measuring from Top to Bottom
Consolidate to Three Numbers
Set Targets & Measure Against Them
#6: Invest 20% in
Unmeasurable, Serendipitous
Marketing
We Know We Can’t Measure Some Things

http://moz.com/rand/the-paradox-of-easy-vs-hard-to-measure-marketing-channels/
But We’ve Seen the Positive Impact of Serendipity

http://moz.com/rand/manufacturing-serendipity/
#7: Promote Great People, Content, &
Tools Regardless of Source
Our Competition Gets Lots of Links & Mentions
The Moz Top 10 Newsletter
#8: Embrace Authenticity,
Fun, and Delight
Work is Only Work If You Make it So

https://www.facebook.com/moz
We Maintain Our Individual Voices
We Try to Have Fun in Everything We Do

http://moz.com/beginners-guide-to-seo/how-usability-experience-and-content-affect-searchengine-rankings
We Want Everyone Who Interacts with Moz to Experience Delight

Roger Mozbot’s toggle
is permanently set to
“Hugs” 
