Interactive content tools for online marketing optimization


Hello everyone!

SeoNat here, with a newly discovered published article by Andrei Petrik from Search Engine People (searchenginepeople.com).

He has written a very well presented and eloquent blog post regarding 5 proposed types of interactive content that can help you pump up your online marketing strategy.

Interactive content is labeled as a tool to make yourself stand out and gain leverage over the competition.
"Its [Interactive content] a type of content that requires a users action, input or a response to generate a result, activate and/or tell a story. The most common types are self-assessment tools, calculators and automated diagnostics." 
The above mentioned tools are carefully explained, and solutions provided that will help you to 'create a richer user experience on your site, earn links, increase visitor stay times and reduce bounce rates'. 

Sounds great, right?

It takes time and determination, but the results make it well the effort!

Actiontags and your business

 Hello guys,

You are probably familiar with the word hashtags (#) and their use in social media networks in order to 'group' all posts on a related topic. Some social media networking services that use this 'method' are Twitter, Facebook, Google+,  Instagram. 

Now, this method has gone a step further via Actiontags.

Actiontags are hashtags that trigger a response. For example, rather than just posting "We have a #NewProduct!" a brand can post "We have a #NewProduct! RT if you #want more information about it."

Jessica Williams (Marketing Profs) states three of the benefits of using actiontags in your social marketing campaigns:
  1. Participation via actiontags. When consumers express their interest in or support for something using actiontags like #want, #buy or #enter, they are explicitly—and publicly—raising their hand. That kind of social opt-in gives the brand an opportunity to respond directly and capitalize on that intent.
  2. Automated brand messaging. With automated messaging, a big brand now has the ability to reach out to each and every person who has raised their hand to be apart of a campaign that they have created. That allows brands to cost-effectively engage consumers one on one, opening up new marketing and conversion opportunities.
  3. Built-in amplification. Most social posts and messages are buried among thousands of others and have a difficult time elevating above the noise without a significant paid budget behind them. However, using an actiontag in your post creates built-in amplification—since the message spreads organically every time a consumer takes action on it.
 
Its not enough to simply have people follow, you need to make them to want to interact and respond to you with a type of action.

Carolyn Cohn has written a very nice article regarding this method and how it can "take your business to the next level"
