Inbound Marketing and How to Use it?
by Aariya r. marketingTraditionally, brands have fought to find the advertisements
on front pages of newspapers or to get the best billboards on the most
important street or the best
advertisements. However, as times change and technology advances, consumers
grow smarter and know what they want. This calls for smarter and better
marketing strategies that are meant to make the consumer come to you, rather
than go to them.
What is Inbound Marketing
This concept of making the customers come to you, rather
than going to them through explicit advertising campaigns and marketing
strategies is called inbound marketing. Inbound marketing is a part of digital
marketing since it revolves around attracting people to your website. However,
it involves not just attracting people but also retaining them at your website.
This can be done through customer
engagement strategies that delight them and keep them coming back to you.
However, contrary to what customers believe, inbound marketing does not just
happen through the quality of the service that you provide but takes special
effort. Therefore, learning
digital marketing and inbound marketing goes together.
Here are some strategies for inbound marketing that seem to
do the trick for organizations:
1.
Understanding Customers Through Facebook
Insights
Since Facebook has become a huge platform for organizations
around the world to showcase their products and reaching out to customers, most
organizations maintain a Facebook presence. When they do maintain a page,
Facebook allows them analysis in the form of insights that highlight the
primary demographics and then help you customize your strategies according to
those demographics.
2.
Quality Content
Once you have the demographics and understand your customers
enough, you can create quality content to appeal to these customers. It must be
understood that even small, seemingly mediocre details are also important when
we talk about the Quality of the
content. For instance, even headlines in your content must have positive
connotations and superlatives that attract customers. In addition, the content
that you create must be data-driven and have infographics that represent the
information in interesting manners and keep the readers hooked.
3.
Blogposts
According to statistics,
creating blogs on websites are the most effective type of content that you can
have on your website. This is why most organizations pursue creating
informative contents with inbound links to their websites or products.
Blogposts help create better SEO rankings for your websites and allow for it to
grab more attention than competing websites.
But it is not just blogposts on your own websites that tend
to do the trick for your marketing strategy but also guest posting. Using guest
posts with inbound links back to your websites can really create traffic and
help customers trust your website. These guest posts must also be on websites
that have readers and are known to be scouting places for potential visitors.
Posting on websites with no traffic will yield no results. Moreover, all these
blog posts and guest posts must be regular rather than posting rarely.
