Keywords are the core of the search engines. To get answers to any queries or questions, you\u2019ll need to enter the keywords and hope that the search engine returns something relevant and useful. As a result, the foundation of most pay per click ad campaigns is the keywords.<\/p>\n

But, with Google\u2019s recent statements, it does look like there\u2019s going to be a lot more attention on intention that just plain keyword phrases. Google\u2019s recent Hummingbird update<\/a> was designed to help factor in the searcher\u2019s intent. This way, the search engines don\u2019t just return results based on the keyphrases as is. They will take other things like context into consideration before returning the search results.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

\"Target<\/a><\/p>\n

So, Are Keywords Still Important?<\/h2>\n

The truth is that keywords are still important. Afterall, there\u2019s no way you\u2019ll be able to bid on search positions without having specific words or phrases to bid on. Only thing is it might be better to start doing more keyword fine tuning.<\/p>\n

Consider the context within which the keywords may be searched and then create your ad campaigns around that. For now, there\u2019s no knowing if keywords will become less important in search, but that\u2019s something to think about.<\/p>\n

In the meantime however, use the keywords, pay for them whilst making some serious efforts to connect with your audience. There\u2019s nothing wrong in selling to people. After all, the entire global economy revolves around that. But, there\u2019s also nothing better than having your audience and customers feel like you genuinely care about them and not just the keywords they enter into the search engines.<\/p>\n

Engage More With Your Audience<\/h2>\n

Along with building and fine tuning your ad campaigns, you need to make sure that you engage more with your audience. There\u2019s a reason Google and other big search engines factor social signals into their ranking metrics these days. It means that the target audience\u2019s role has become bigger.<\/p>\n

Unlike the past where all you had to do was churn out articles by the hundred to get ranked, you have to actually do things a bit differently. The search engines consider content with lots of social signals important enough to be ranked highly on the search engines.<\/p>\n

In the future, the target audience is going to be just as important as the keywords. In fact, smart business owners are beginning to adopt this. They attract targeted traffic via bidding on keywords in the search engines and then interact and engage with their visitors when they visit their websites.<\/p>\n

This is an amazing thing to do. People who know how to wield this influence will find that with time, their ad spend don\u2019t have to be as high. They can easily build a crowd of loyal fans who\u2019ll follow them anywhere and hang on to their every word.<\/p>\n

So, are keywords more important than your target audience? Not at all. They\u2019re complementary strategies that can provide excellent results when used well. As a florist, start thinking of your target audience and your keywords as one and the same. This mindset will open your eyes to so many possibilities ad ideas that you can apply and use in marketing your business online.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
