Be Timely, Seasonal and Hip!
- Change your website messaging as the seasons change
- Add a snowman, jingle bells, etc. and remember! Not everything is going to seem rational or logical but it will increase conversions
Social Tools & Widgets on Websites:
- Social media widgets show that you are relevant and current, but you don’t want to distract your customers by giving them too many options to leave your site
- Encourage interaction and keep it interesting
- Craft your message per the keyword the user searches
Learning to think outside the box is crucial to a successful SEM campaign.
