This story proves a few things…
Customers’ ways are often inscrutable
A savvy salesman will stand by his customer and stay alert for motivations and objections
Customers’ purchase decisions are driven by users’ motivations
Customers’ purchase decisions are often stopped or delayed by potential objections
There is a certain level of information that customers require before they feel confident enough to make their purchase decisions
To get to the final conversion, sometimes we have to follow a step-by-step approach
On the Internet there are no salesmen
On the Internet there are no salesmen
@fernandomacia @humanlevel
From the conversion funnel to the customer journey
@fernandomacia @humanlevel
Search-behaviour along the purchase decision process
awareness
research
consideration
conversion
advocacy
blogs, forums, articles, offline information, social media, anticipative and necessity-connected searches
generic searches, vertical search engines, product reviews, social prescriptions....
semi-generic searches, product listing pages, comparisons, users comments...
long tail searches, product pages, motivations...
users opinions, mentions on social media sites, product evaluation, satisfaction surveys...
@fernandomacia @humanlevel
Impulsive vs. reflexive purchase
Time
Cost
Risk
Impulsive purchase
Reflexive purchase
@fernandomacia @humanlevel
Search behaviour along the purchase decision process
awareness
research
consideration
conversion
advocacy
YouTube: “mountain bike videos”
Google: “resistant cameras”, “sport cameras”, “action cameras”
Mountain bike forums, Facebook groups, Twitter contacts, opinions on Amazon
Google: “GoPro Hero 3 offer”, Amazon: “GoPro Hero 3”
Google: “GoPro Hero 3 opinions”, “GoPro Hero 3 user comments”, etc.
@fernandomacia @humanlevel
The purchase decision process looks more like this…
awareness
research
consideration
action
advocacy
@fernandomacia @humanlevel
A funnel or a sieve?
@fernandomacia @humanlevel
With SEO, we have focused on positioning our web pages for our clients' most popular searches
@fernandomacia @humanlevel
LANDING PAGE
We optimize web pages for certain keywords
@fernandomacia @humanlevel
LANDING
Search intent
KWSearcher persona
Need
Product/Service
SERPs
A very linear process. Most conversions are not so direct
@fernandomacia @humanlevel
The "perfectly optimized" Web page
https://moz.com/blog/visual-guide-to-keyword-targeting-onpage-optimization
@fernandomacia @humanlevel
Hundreds or even thousands of Web pages compete for the most popular and next-to-conversion keywords
“cheap hotel benidorm”
“buy women shoes”
“galaxy note offer”
“cheap flights to majorca”
“penthouse in madrid”...
@fernandomacia @humanlevel
Less SERP real-estate for organic results
Up to 4 AdWords results
+ site links, call extensions...
@fernandomacia @humanlevel
Organic results may not even show in the above-the-fold
Local results
Google Flights results
@fernandomacia @humanlevel
… or appear so low in the page that the CTR decreases dramatically…
First organic result
Knowledge graph
Wikipedia
Google Shopping
@fernandomacia @humanlevel
To make things worse, local, mobile and personalized results push organic results to even lower positions
Local results
Google AdWords
@fernandomacia @humanlevel
And a few domains with high authority monopolize most SERPs
https://www.sistrix.es/blog/indexwatch-2015-los-dominios-ganadores-en-google-durante-el-2015/
@fernandomacia @humanlevel
Can we keep on competing on SEO?
@fernandomacia @humanlevel
Keywords any moreSEO is not aboutjust
@fernandomacia @humanlevel@fernandomacia @humanlevel
We focus on positioning for the most competitive and obvious keyword…
