SEO Company Releases Statement on State of Digital Marketing Report and Social Media

    LOS ANGELES, CA, November 18, 2011 /24-7PressRelease/ -- Early this month San Francisco Bay area based Webmarketing123 released its "First Annual State of Digital Marketing Report" which was based on a survey conducted from over 500 business to business (B2B) and business to consumer (B2C) marketing professionals who focus on Internet advertising in the areas of both search and social optimization.

The survey revealed that although search engine optimization is still the leading choice for Internet marketing professionals, 60 percent of respondents polled said they plan to increase their marketing budget for social media in 2012. Of the 500 professionals who responded, 68 percent of them said they've generated leads from either Twitter, Facebook or LinkedIn, while 55 percent have closed deals from social media.

Social media marketing is the creation and exchange of content focused around a product, service or brand. Social media communications are marketing and advertising practices organizations follow to connect with their target markets and generally center on efforts to create content that attracts attention and encourages user generated responses and discussions which are shared on social networks.

"This solidifies the powerful combination of search engine optimization and social media marketing which will continue to be a significant leader in achieving measurable results. Whether you are a large corporation or a small business, you need to focus on combining both search and social optimization into a promotion strategy your company can maintain in a cost effective way over time. A good social media marker requires a keen understanding of many elements of advertising strategies including search engine optimization, public relations, publicity and sales."

The growth of social media has impacted the way businesses communicate. The Internet provides platforms such as Twitter, Facebook, and now Google+ which allow people to build social and business connections, share information and collaborate online. When discussions originate by users rather than the corporations brands benefit through creditability and trust from other users.

"We're well aware that our clients have to profit from their Internet marketing campaigns. We look at their site, their service, their competition and the keyword trends in their industry, both nationally and locally, and create a sophisticated online marketing campaign focused on how best to significantly increase web site traffic in the shortest period of time possible. There are few shortcuts to professional Internet marketing and we know our clients need to see measureable results and return on their investment and we work hard to get it."
