The Link Between Content and Conversions

/0 Comments/in /by

The Link between Content and ConversionsDisplaying dynamic, engaging content in real-time as visitors arrive on your website is an incredible way to encourage visitors to stick around and convert into paying customers. As technology has advanced, the ability to do this is no longer a pipe dream but is very much a reality. By building a rich profile of the visitors arriving on your site that becomes stronger over time, you can do exactly that. This is what we call the magic link between content and conversions.

This can be accomplished through a combination of behavioral information, including actions taken by visitors, such as clicks, email opens, document downloads, page visits, webinar attendance, video watches, and more. Along with demographics from your own CRM and social data, it becomes possible to deliver a powerful and effective customer profile. When retrieved in real time and used in precisely defined rule sets, this data makes it possible to create a much more personalized website experience for your visitors.

Many website owners make the mistake of thinking only of themselves and their needs when creating their website and future content. In order to engage your audience in an effective manner and convert those visitors into paying customers, you must first lean how to address your visitors’ basic concerns. This is particularly true when it comes to first-time visitors to your website. When a visitor first arrives on your site, he or she will typically ask, even if subconsciously, the following questions:

  • Will this website meet my needs?
  • Can I trust this website?
  • Does this website have the solution that will solve my problem?

Leveraging real time data-driven content gives you the ability to find out exactly what it is that your visitor wants and deliver content that will reassure visitors that your site can meet their needs, can be trusted, and has the solution to solve their problem.

In the early days of the Internet, marketers often had no choice but to create campaigns that were inexact in terms of focus and awareness. Today, we are able to see exactly who shares and clicks what as well as how visitors navigate our sites. Furthermore, we no longer have to wait a lengthy period of time to see that data. The data and metrics available today allow us to gain much deeper insights into what visitors do and what they want.

When it comes to reaching out to customers via online marketing, it is not always about what we say, it’s also about when we say it, where we say it, and how we say it. In particular, timing can be one of the most important elements in converting a casual visitor into a paying customer.

The good news is that you already have the data you need in order to create engaging content that your visitors will relate to. While you might not have the necessary framework in place to put that data to work for your website, tools are available to help you understand your visitors better and leverage data in real time to deliver powerful, personalized content at precisely the right time.

Convert Visitors into Loyal Customers

/0 Comments/in /by

Converting Casual Visitors into Loyal CustomersAccording to a study conducted by the CMO Council, higher engagement and response rates are the number one reason for utilizing personalized content. The study further found that personalized content tends to convert more customers.  So why not start to convert visitors into loyal customers?

One of the most common problems that many brands experience in their online marketing efforts today is trying to convert casual visitors into loyal customers. As most brands are well aware, many visitors tend to arrive on their sites, surf around for a bit, and then leave without making any attempt to engage or making a purchase. In order to increase conversions and boost profit levels, it is essential for brands to learn how to convert more of those casual visitors into loyal customers.

While more traffic is always desirable for your website, the reality is that traffic only matters if you are continually increasing the number of visitors you convert. When it comes to designing a successful and effective website, too many marketers tend to focus on what they need to do to attract visitors to their website. Unfortunately, all of the work that you do to get people to visit your website will be for naught if you are not able to convert visitors into paying customers. In terms of converting casual visitors into loyal customers, one of the best ways to do this is to engage them with personalized content.

As advanced as technology has become, relationships are still one of the primary drivers that can encourage a prospect to choose one brand over another brand. While you might not be able to utilize face-to-face connections as you would with a brick-and-mortar store, you can still leverage your online presence in order to interact in a direct manner with those customers who visit your website. In this regard, you will be able to create more powerful relationships while encouraging visitors to take the next step to becoming loyal customers.

Without the tools to drive conversion, brand awareness may be nice, but your sales simply may not reflect the true number of visitors your website attracts. In order to convert casual visitors into sales, your website must be built with the right support.

Data-driven, dynamic content in real time is one of the most important elements website owners today can use to convert even the most casual visitors into loyal customers. In the design of your website, consider what information your visitors want most and whether they are able to find that information right away. Remember that most visitors today have incredibly short attention spans. Furthermore, they have far more online information from which to choose from today than they did just a few years ago. This means it is absolutely vital that you capture their attention right away and deliver the information they want most. Real time data-driven content can tell you exactly what a casual visitor wants and give you the ability to deliver the information they want in order to create more personalized content and drive higher conversions.

Personalizing Your Content to Drive Engagement

/0 Comments/in /by

Personalize your Website ContentWith more content than ever online with which your brand must compete, learning how to personalize your content to drive your engagement has become essential. No longer is it enough to simply update your website on a regular basis. You must create a dynamic website experience that is designed to encourage prospects to convert to customers and shorten sales cycles. Personalization of your website content is one of the best ways to do this. Begin personalizing your content to drive engagement today!

The Benefits of Personalization

Thanks to technological advances, marketers now have the ability to take full advantage of personalized website content. By using personalized content, you can reduce clutter in the vast amount of online content that your brand must compete with and create a web experience that is far more relevant and personalized to the individual visitor. This is a far more targeted marketing approach that is also much more effective.

By providing your customers with a more personalized experience, your brand can benefit from visitors remaining on your website longer, downloading more offers, and ultimately making more purchases.

The social media revolution has dramatically changed the way in which the Internet is used. Today, it is more about user-driven content and user engagement. Website personalization provides your brand with the ability to change website content dynamically and extend offers based on visitor-driven criteria. Such criteria can be created in almost any way that you might desire, including visitor actions, website behavior, content interests, etc.

Creating Engaging Web Content in Real Time

Analyzing visitor behavior and then re-designing your website content in real time gives your brand the opportunity to recognize and tap into your customer’s interests. This also gives you the chance to maximize engagement and sales by delivering incredibly personalized website experiences for each customer based on current as well as past behaviors.

Ultimately, it is important to recognize that when a visitor arrives on your website, he or she is only interested in their own specific needs. They are not interested in any other information and it is up to you to provide the personalized content necessary to pique their interest and keep them on your site long enough to convert them into paying customers. Each time that a customer returns to your site, your content should be updated to encourage customers to continue moving through the sales funnel without running the risk of having the customer be distracted by information they do not need and not relevant to them.

In order to maximize the opportunities made available by personalized content, it is important for your brand to focus on creating content rather than taking a broad spread approach. The creation of buyer’s personas can be an excellent way to determine the type of content that should be created to drive engagement. The latest technology has also made it possible to create a variety of content options for driving a more engaging web experience through home page content, cross-selling, and product level recommendations.

Why Your Website Needs to Be More Engaging to Convert

/0 Comments/in /by

Engage your Website VisitorsDid you know that you only have about 15 seconds to get the attention of your website visitors? According to Chartbeat, that’s how much time you have to capture their attention, so make it count. Further data from Chartbeat shows that most people do not read web content the way we think. Adding to the difficulty in capturing the attention of visitors is the fact that there is now more content available online than ever before. Google receives more than 4 million search queries every 60 seconds. As if that was not enough to concern a marketer, consumers are now reviewing more and more information prior to making a purchasing decision. In fact, 85 percent of consumers turn to trusted online sources for information to assist with buying decisions. On average, consumers will actually engage with almost a dozen pieces of content before they actually make a purchase. If your website needs to be more engaging then start to look at ways to personalize website content and convert your visitors.

More Difficult Than Ever for Marketers to Stand Out from the Crowd Online

Although the vast amount of content available online may make it easier for consumers to review products and services, it has also served to make it much more difficult for brands to stand out from the crowd. It is no longer enough to simply regurgitate facts. Your brand must ensure that your content is as engaging as possible, which means addressing the wants and needs of your audience while simultaneously empathizing with them. Doing so will allow you to increase your level of audience involvement, while also converting more people. Today, your prospects expect your brand to express interest in them by extending ongoing interaction, both via social media as well as your website. If you deprive visitors of this opportunity, you are also likely losing out to the competition and sacrificing the opportunity for your business to build important relationships with your prospects.

Engaging Your Prospects to Convert Them into Customers

Among the most common mistakes that many marketers make today is plastering their website with one-way content. This can come across as anti-social and serve to drive away customers before you even have the chance to convert them into paying customers.

One of the best ways to quickly grab the attention of a prospect is to personalize your content to that particular visitor. It’s also important to make communication as relevant as possible. In other words, you need to ensure your content is visitor specific. A couple of ways this can be accomplished is by using the visitor’s name or even inserting the city or state in which they live to catch their attention.

It’s also important to ensure your website content has a unique voice. This helps your visitors know what to expect from your content while also helping to reassure them, which is an important step toward building trust and converting visitors.

While your brand may have more competition online, learning how to engage your customers with personalized content can help you increase your conversion rate and bottom line.

/0 Comments/in , /by

Increase Website Visitor Engagement and Conversions by up to 200%

Allen, TX (PRWEB) June 22, 2015 – Lead Liaison, the leading provider of marketing automation software to the mid-market, has announced limited availability of an exciting new solution for content personalization. The product, called Lead Liaison SiteEngage™, allows companies to configure data-driven website content (popups or embedded content) personalized to website visitors to help increase engagement.

Lead Liaison found that most companies do a poor job of converting website visitors. Companies pump lots of money into retargeting, pay-per-click advertising, SEO, salespeople and digital marketing – they all share a common purpose, to drive people to the company’s website. However, companies forget to close the loop and take the necessary steps to convert visitors by giving them something valuable in exchange for their contact information, such as email and name, once they’re on their site. Unfortunately, 98% of a company’s website traffic goes unnoticed. Lead Liaison expects to seriously tip the scale with Lead Liaison SiteEngage™.

The new product is deeply integrated with Lead Liaison’s Lead Management Automation (LMA) solution, which delivers award-winning marketing automation capabilities. Combined with Send & Track for Outlook™/Google Chrome™, and ProspectVision™ , for website visitor tracking, Lead Liaison’s suite of marketing automation tools, called Revenue Generation Software®, for the mid-market rivals competing solutions. Companies are able to better attract, convert and close business using Lead Liaison – with conversion and closure being the key focus for content personalization.

Lead Liaison’s content personalization solutions are easy to setup. Customers choose from different styles of “engagement windows”, such as a canvas, modal, footer, ribbon, or slider. They choose from over nine pre-created themes that can easily be customized using a drag and drop designer. After creating visually appealing content, customers set up rules on when to show the content. Content is delivered based on a wide range of data, for deep personalization. Using any combination of demographics, social, or behavioral information companies can display their dynamic content to convert more visitors and accelerate sales with relevant offers.

This level of ease of use and personalization is unparalleled in the industry, establishing Lead Liaison as a true innovator in the market. As other marketing automation providers follow suite with larger companies, Lead Liaison continues to think outside the box, distancing themselves from competitors, offering unique, highly valuable solutions that help companies accelerate revenue, faster.

Alan Page, VP of Customer Success at Lead Liaison says:

“We’re thrilled to bring content personalization to the market! This was really the missing piece in our product portfolio. There are multiple use cases for our new product. Companies can use the solution to increase the size of their newsletter database, display offers for valuable content (such as whitepapers), run promotions for first time visitors, all in an effort to increase conversions and drive sales. The days of showing the same content to every visitor is long gone. You’ve got to personalize communication, and give people relevant content at the right time – something Lead Liaison does extremely well. Our tracking engine is bar none in the industry, building a rich profile of online and offline engagement on prospects. Now that we can use that information to personalize content – the likelihood of driving more sales and converting more visitors has skyrocketed.”

Lead Liaison SiteEngage™ is available to qualified prospects and existing customers as of the time of this release. General availability is planned for mid-June 2015.

Five Ways of Using Visitor Tracking to Increase Visitor Engagement

/0 Comments/in , , /by

Five Ways of Using Visitor Tracking to Increase Visitor EngagementHave you ever thought of using visitor tracking to increase visitor engagement? You can have numerous visitors to your site, but unless you’re doing the right visitor tracking you may be missing some terrific data. It’s best to tempt visitors to dive deeper into the website. Tracking visitor engagement starts with a hit on your website while the engagement process begins once visitors start to use your site. Following are five ways you can engage visitors for a better web experience all around.

Provide Links to Internal Content and Pages

Prominently displaying links to other related products and pages retain visitor engagement, take them “down the rabbit hole of your site” so to speak and will urge them to search and keep coming back for more content.

Minimize Site and Page Load Durations

Most internet users tend to leave if a site or page fails to load in three seconds. Since most outstanding search engines such as Google understand this, you may find yourself falling further behind in search rankings for pages that load sluggishly. It is good to have a high-load speed for your site so you don’t lose visitors or SEO ranking in general.

Make the Website Simple

For business sites, the more difficulties a client faces, the less likely they are to purchase your products and services. Your site should have a simple menu design and language. All unnecessary form fields should be detached to simplify the lead collection experience from start to finish.

Have Features that Promote Direct Interaction

Features such as product analyses and blog comments allow the customers to ask questions and leave something others can read about the site or products. Ensure that the features are used well and all queries get a reply.

Analyze the Visitor Flow

Search engines have features that help monitor visitor actions. Monitoring includes information such as the first page visited, whether further pages are looked at, buttons clicked or actions taken on the site, etc. If your preferred visitor flow is not followed, you should review the page layout and content and create clearer calls to action.

Visitor tracking through engagements is vital to any site. Engagement helps keep visitors onsite for extended period of time so they can learn more about your content. Long durations on a site influence a visitor’s return rate. A higher return rate keeps customers engaged with your products and services and may eventually result in a sale.
