High school athlete

Viral videos are a great Internet marketing tool for athletes that are just starting out in their sport, looking for visibility and sponsorship. 

Video marketing offers the athlete an opportunity to record footage of their best moments and broadcast it to millions. In the pre-Internet era, athletes depending on scouts coming to their games. If the athlete had on “off” day or was unavailable during the time the scout came, they would lose out on potential contracts. 

Now, with videos and the shot at going viral, a fledgling athlete can compile clips of their best features, best performances, and give a short video bio and disseminate it to millions. The younger the athlete, or the more extraordinary the athletic performances featured in the video, the better chance of going viral.

The Evolution of SEO

Though there are numerous important dates in SEO history, following I feel are more significant than the others.

Date: Nov 27, 2002 – On this day Yahoo adopted a new method to display search results performed through Yahoo.com. Earlier by paying certain amount to Yahoo, a website could appear at top of the search results page. However, seeing its sinking popularity among internet users, the company was forced to back off on this strategy, and why? Users were not getting relevant results. This increased the complexity of SEO for websites and work of SEO experts.

Date: March 24, 2008 – On this day Google, the god of search engines acquired DoubleClick, a search engine marketing firm. Now one may wonder why a company like Google would enter into a niche which would upset SEO and SEM firms. The answer is obvious, Google knows its indexing secrets, and imagine a SEO firm which knows all the secrets of SEM and SEO. The combination would give rise to a SEO behemoth, which will supersede all of its competition.

Blog

When starting out in an industry where the competition is plentiful, it is important to utilize all the marketing tools at your disposal, especially those that require little out-of-pocket expense. A blog can be the perfect tool for a start-up such as a hand-made jewelry company. There are gazillions of people out there making their own jewelry. Some are recreational designers, some want to build a successful brand. For the latter, a blog can be the perfect way to update readers on jewelry finds, inspiration and news.

If a jewelry designer is able to get a celebrity or other high-profile individual to wear their designs, a blog is a great way to broadcast that news. By using the appropriate tags such as “Nicole Kidman jewelry”, the blog could attract individuals conducting casual searches online. Those casual searchers could turn in to virtual window shoppers and, eventually, paying customers.

SEO can prove invaluable to efforts to mobilize aid in an instance of urgent need, such as the recent earthquake in Haiti.

Charity organizations are one form of industry which could potentially benefit from SEO because the visibility of certain organizations designed to step up in a time of need is crucial when the need is pertinent in the public eye.  Examples of such situations of need would include, but not be limited to: the recent earthquake in Haiti, Hurricane Katrina in New Orleans and the Gulf Coast, the tsunami in Java in 2006, or any other of a variety of natural disasters which result in a need for outside assistance when local infrastructure is devastated.  Increasing the page rankings of any charitable organization which works to benefit such a situation while the situation is still in news headlines can save potential donors or volunteers the time of searching for ways to get involved by instead saving them the trouble and presenting a viable option right in front of them.
