Digital marketing is constantly evolving, and it’s easy to feel behind the curve very quickly. While you don’t necessarily need to spend money on the newest buzz-worthy technology, there are a few important areas that are worth the investment to ensure your digital marketing’s long-term relevance.

Optimize for Mobile

The average American adult spends over 3 hours a day on a mobile device. This number continues to trend upward, so neglecting mobile will put you on the fast track to sub-par digital marketing.

Think Local

Local SEO is becoming the lynchpin for users to find your business. Through Google’s platform and apps, users can search for things like near me, open now, and top rated. Google has also recently released recommendations based on user’s past experience and searches.

As voice search apps, Google Maps, and mobile users continue to increase, local optimization will become more and more important.

Target Your Ideal Customer

The internet is huge. There are billions of ads and billions of users. It may be tempting to want your ad to be visible to as many people as possible, but this could be a waste of your resources, especially if you don’t have many.

Focus your ads on specific demographics to ensure they are being shown to the users who are most likely to be interested in your product or service. By targeting your ads to a defined number of relevant potential customers, you will save money and your digital marketing campaigns will generate greater long-term success.
