Digital Marketing: Understanding Goals and Tracking Success

Online Marketing and more specifically, Search Engine Marketing, is, is all about results. From the first time you create an ad campaign, it’s important to know what you want to gain from your campaign, what your goals are and how you’re going to measure and track your success. 

Whether it be brand awareness, visibility and online presence, website enquiries, phone enquiries, increased sales, conversions, or ROI; establishing, identifying these goals of online marketing and then tracking the performance is very important and could be the difference between success or failure.

Not only understanding the overall goals of the business’ online marketing but also completely identifying what we are classifying as a conversion is very important. This could range from completing the enquiry form, making a purchase from the site, subscribing to a newsletter, improved bounce rate etc.
