2009 was the year of the slap for many online marketers. Many internet marketing tactics developed over several years have been swept away as this decade draws to a close. Shady marketing practices have been replaced with a new ethos of integrity and transparency. Gone are the days of 'black hat' marketing and 'Get Rich Quick' scams. We saw Google and the FTC lay down new rules which have changed many of the ways you can effectively market your business online. Social media and marketing sites such as twitter, Facebook, Squidoo and even EzineArticles have also followed suit and are tightening the rules for 2010 in an effort to remove spammers and increase the quality of their content. The downside is that many genuine internet marketers with nothing but the best intentions, were affected by the changes and had their accounts disabled and their incomes slashed. For 2010 there is no alternative but to understand the changes and work with them in order to make this new year 'Your Year' for success. Here are seven super tips to get you started.
1. PPC Campaign Makeover PPC Campaigns were drastically affected. Forget outlandish claims of earning $600,000.00 in less than 6 days with a turn key marketing solution! In 2010 your claims and testimonials for your products or services must reflect real results that an average buyer can expect. Secondly PPC campaigns can no longer link to a cookie cutter affiliate capture page. You will need to create your own capture page or at least modify and personalise company pages.
2. Genuine Content Will Be King 2010 will be the year of authenticity and transparency, people want to know who you are. Your site will do well to be not only to be professional but also personalised and content rich.
3. Key Words Will Be Listed In Real Time Previously key words used in your articles or on your website were listed historically because it took time for them to be indexed by the search bots. 2010 will see Google and Bing include real time key words from social media sites such as twitter and Facebook. This means you will have the power to target your audience instantly with key word rich tweets and facebook updates. You will be able to harness the power of new trends and reach your audience rapidly.
