Content Marketing and Search Engine Optimization (SEO)
Deliver high-quality content that contains relevant keyword and phrases that customers use in search engines. Why? The more people see those keywords, the more they visit your website, and the higher their tendency of sharing your content to even more people. Tools like Google AdWords and Microsoft Bing Ads are helpful for finding keywords and phrases used by potential customers.
It is vital to remember that these modes of marketing focus on bringing customers to your product instead of you looking for them. While this is great for companies, it is vital that you provide customers with the information they can actually use, instead of bombarding them with salesy pitches.
