Keyword prices on the up
|
|
The average price of advertiser keywords rose in the third quarter of 2006, illustrating the growing presence of marketers on the web.
The Keyword Price Index from search marketing firm Fathom Online shows that the average keyword price increased by 16.5 per cent to $1.48 (£0.75).
This reversed a downward trend that saw the average price drop from $1.39 (£0.71) in the first quarter of the year to $1.27 (£0.65) in the second.
Fathom Online's chairman and chief executive, Dean DeBiase, put this down to the increased popularity of keywords in light of greater online ad spend.
"Keyword demand is up as organisations have increased their online advertising budgets and expanded their search marketing capabilities," he said.
"Both online advertising and search marketing are becoming strategic components of the overall marketing mix because of their growing effectiveness."
Figures from the Interactive Advertising Bureau showed that internet advertising revenue in the third quarter rose by a third year-on-year, to $4.2 billion (£2.1 billion).
    
Organic Search Engine
Results
A search engines organic results sometimes called the
natural results are produced using mathematical principles which
score the importance and relevance of each website for a particular
search term, awarding the high ranking positions to the websites
which achieve the highest aggregate scores. Unlike search engines
sponsored listings (PPC), it is not possible to directly buy a high
position in a search engines organic results.
Research into search engine user behaviour has shown
that the majority of searchers do not look beyond the first two
pages of search engine results. If searchers cannot find what they
are looking for in the first 20-30 results, they modify their
search criteria rather than looking deeper into the results. A web
site with the top search engine ranking for a popular search term
will typically generate between 100 and 1000 times the traffic
volume of a website ranking on the third page of the search engine
results. The aim of search engine optimization is therefore to win
a place, and ultimately the coveted number 1 spot, on the first
page of the search engine results pages (SERPs) for a range of
targeted, high traffic search terms.

Ecommerce is one of the few industries that is flourishing despite
economic downturns. It continues to grow at an astounding pace.
Because of this, internet competition is increasing, and web design
standards are high- internet users, your potential clients, demand
a pleasing experience when they navigate a website and only sites
of the highest quality have an opportunity to attract and appeal to
an audience. A successful website (whether the purpose is to sell,
inform, promote, or entertain) must be functional and entertaining,
easy to navigate and engaging, with graphics that are eye-catching
and memorable.
A web solution that is well orchestrated and designed to serve the
customer, can promote the desired user actions to increase revenue,
and be far more effective than traditional marketing ventures. On
the other hand, an inferior or inadequate website design will
result in frustrated users who will have a negative experience and
be left with a poor overall impression, eventually leading to site
abandonment and lost sales. Our expertise and experience combined
