Enterprises throughout the world are continuing to try to catch up with competitors that were already well-positioned enough to brave the \u201cNew Normal,\u201d many of them still scrambling to adopt new strategies and technologies to support a remote workforce and provide alternative offerings to consumers.<\/p>\n<p>This extra pressure weighs especially heavily on businesses\u2019 marketing departments, as 2020 proved that consumer behavior is only as predictable as the world around us is. Along with this came an upheaval of classic marketing tactics, causing business leaders everywhere to reevaluate their spending in that area. With that said, marketing \u2013 especially online marketing \u2013 isn\u2019t dead; it has simply shifted in focus.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: center;\"><em>\u201c\u2026Marketing \u2013 especially online marketing \u2013 isn\u2019t dead; it has simply shifted in focus.\u201d<\/em><\/h3>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>This new marketing perspective, revealed by the onset COVID-19, has taught marketers that they need to put their money where their mouth is, which can be achieved by engaging in performance marketing. Performance marketing can promise a better return on marketing investment (ROMI), making it an attractive option for businesses that want real results in terms of traffic, conversions, and sales. Intrigued? Keep reading as we elaborate on the definition of performance marketing, examine some common tactics for improving your ROMI, and discuss the best way to implement your new strategy.<\/p>\n<h2>Performance Marketing<\/h2>\n<p>According to research from <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bigcommerce.com\/blog\/performance-marketing\/#what-is-performance-marketing\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">BigCommerce<\/a>, performance marketing is a mix of \u201cpaid advertising and brand marketing put together, but only paid once the completed desired action takes place.\u201d These desired actions can look like a sale, a download, a booking, or even a completed lead. Additionally, because businesses only pay when an action is taken, this is a very cost-effective approach to generating conversions. This results-driven method is intended to create sustainable predictable revenue \u2013 something that organizations today desperately need. To keep up with this major shift in digital marketing, you\u2019re going to need to familiarize yourself with the essentials, so let\u2019s take a look at two of the most effective performance marketing tools in the biz.<\/p>\n<h2>Measurable Tactics for Improved Performance<\/h2>\n<p>Outlined below are two performance marketing tactics aimed at reaching more potential customers and keeping them engaged. The value in these methods comes from their measurability, as concrete numbers help to prove the effectiveness of your strategy and justify the need for a robust marketing budget.<\/p>\n<h3>Search Engine Optimization<\/h3>\n<p>Unlike paid search marketing, utilizing <a href=\"https:\/\/www.webii.net\/seo-services\/\">search engine optimization<\/a> (SEO) means that you\u2019re relying on search engines\u2019 algorithms to rank your website at the top of the search engine results page (SERP). With that said, claiming that first spot isn\u2019t necessarily easy. You need to develop a strategy that involves creating compelling <a href=\"https:\/\/www.webii.net\/seo-marketing\/seo-content\/\">content<\/a>, utilizing relevant links, ensuring standards-compliant HTML, using well-labeled images, and even employing good grammar on your website.<\/p>\n<h3>Measuring SEO<\/h3>\n<p>Now that you have a basic overview of what SEO is, let\u2019s talk about measuring its effectiveness. There are two main factors you can use to determine if your SEO efforts are working or not: engagement metrics and search traffic. Engagement metrics include conversion rates, bounce rate, pages per visit, time spent on-page, and so on. Search traffic data, on the other hand, is more focused on showing you how much traffic your site is gaining from search. This can be tracked via online tools like Google Analytics, where you can isolate organic traffic from other channels, view patterns in traffic over time, and see how many visits a certain page receives.<\/p>\n<h3>A\/B Testing<\/h3>\n<p>According to <a href=\"https:\/\/hbr.org\/2017\/06\/a-refresher-on-ab-testing\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Harvard Business Review<\/a>, A\/B testing is \u201ca way to compare two versions of something to figure out which performs better.\u201d In digital marketing, this type of testing is used to evaluate everything from product descriptions to headlines to web design and so on. The goal with A\/B testing is to use data (such as user behavior reports, scroll maps, etc.) to form a hypothesis about user activity, and ultimately make an educated guess about changes that could be made to improve engagement on your site. Once you implement the change, you should compare the results (number of clicks, conversions, sales, etc.) with the data from before the change was made. Did you make more sales? Are more people subscribing to your newsletter? A\/B testing is all about figuring out what makes your visitors tick. It\u2019s also important to note that this testing is an ongoing process and should be aimed at continual improvement.<\/p>\n<h2>Thinking Like a Modern-Day Marketer<\/h2>\n<p>According to experts of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.vistage.com\/research-center\/customer-engagement\/marketing-strategy\/20210112-what-to-spend-on-marketing-in-2021-a-story-of-a-digital-revolution\/?ecid=CVSTG000004996939&amp;utm_campaign=2021-01-17-Executive-Street-Team&amp;utm_medium=email&amp;utm_source=Eloqua\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Vistage<\/a>, almost half of 2021 marketing spend will be on digital assets. This means that to keep up with your competitors, you must be prepared to embrace the shift to data-driven performance marketing \u2013 something that is certainly easier said than done. It can be especially difficult for modern-day small and medium-sized businesses (SMBs) that have limited resources and little marketing experience to develop and implement brand-new marketing strategies all on their own. Yet, somehow, there are plenty of SMBs that have robust, effective strategies and a relatively tame marketing budget.<\/p>\n<h3>So, what\u2019s their secret?<\/h3>\n<p>A lot of today\u2019s SMBs are looking to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.webii.net\/professional-seo-company-austin\/\">offload to third-party digital marketing firms<\/a> to position themselves for success. Why? Well \u2013 it\u2019s cost-effective, ensures industry expertise, and takes the weight of implementing your own marketing strategies off your shoulders. It\u2019s important that you look for a provider that uses digital marketing methods that drive measurable results; more specifically, you want to partner with a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.webii.net\/about-us\/\">trusted collaborative agency<\/a> that offers SEO services, A\/B testing, and web performance solutions. If you\u2019re going to spend money on marketing in the midst of the COVID-19 pandemic when marketing budgets are already tight, you might as well spend it on results that <em>matter<\/em>. So, does your investment measure up?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>While the global Coronavirus pandemic has shown signs of letting up with the distribution of vaccines and a deeper understanding of the virus, the economic effects of COVID-19 are far from over.
