Search Engine Marketing Resources

Search Engine Marketing is a broad subject, so there are many resources you can use to gain knowledge as well as detailed instruction on how to set up optimized ads and content.



A good website that helped me get my feet wet in this information is the Moz blog. Moz is an SEO consulting company, meaning they take clients and help them optimize their websites and content. The people who write for their blogs are very knowledgeable in the topics and the information is very readable.



Another good website that is useful for additional information is Search Engine Journal. This is a website that has a collaboration of people from all over with varying backgrounds blogging together. They all talk about different things and share a variety of insights on topics, they also have tutorials.

No one person, or two websites, can know all there is to know about Search Engine Optimization, but knowing where to find additional resources can make the journey of learning much less challenging.

MKTG 345 Google Analytics Bounce Rate Week 11

Image
The bounce rate is the percentage of visitors on a website who exit the site after only viewing one page. This is an important rate to know in marketing because it gives you insight on the user experience. If people did not find your website pleasing, they left. Not all high bounce rates are bad, if the reason for the ad campaign was to get people to complete the option and they went to that page, and did then the higher bounce rate may not be a bad thing. Or if the purpose of that page is to complete a specific task, like assist in making a phone call, or that lead directly to the product they clicked on.
