What is digital marketing?<\/strong><\/span><\/h3>\n

Digital marketing, in a nutshell, means advertising your business online. For most businesses, just handing out handwritten and photocopied fliers at stop streets in big cities simply isn\u2019t going to cut it in terms of advertising your business.<\/p>\n

With so many people accessing the internet through their laptops, tablets and cell phones daily, it doesn\u2019t make sense not to utilize the internet to advertise. Your business must have an online presence and this presence must be professional.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n

Why should I market my business?<\/strong><\/span><\/h3>\n

The purpose of marketing is to reach new clients for your business. It also prompts previous clients to become regular clients. Marketing advertises your products and services to potential customers and aims to convince them that they need this product or service. Good marketing gains the attention of a potential client and converts him into paying clients.<\/p>\n

At Swerve Designs, we can help you design a digital marketing strategy that is effective. Here are a few ways of how we do this:<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n

Website design<\/span> <\/strong><\/h3>\n

Having a professional, responsive and good-looking website is one of the most important aspects of digital marketing. All integrated marketing communication should lead back to your website. An Instagram post advertising your business should lead interested clients to your website. A Facebook advert promoting a special that you are running should lead potential buyers to your website. An e-mail campaign explaining your services should include links to your website. Even non-digital marketing tools such as business cards, posters, flyers, banners and billboard signs should include a call to action to lead people to your website.<\/p>\n

If your digital marketing strategy achieves this objective but you have a poorly designed website, all other marketing tools are useless. When potential clients visit your website, you want to “seal the deal,” to drive sales and turn those potential clients into paying customers. A poorly designed website will not do this. Therefore, your digital marketing strategy should prioritize ensuring that your website represents the quality and integrity of your company.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n

SEO: Search Engine Optimisation<\/span> <\/strong><\/a><\/h3>\n

Your website itself should be a part of your marketing strategy. Potential clients looking for the product or service you provide should type in general search requests into a search engine and come across your business. This is facilitated by good search engine optimisation or SEO. Basically, SEO is a process of making your website rank better according to search engine criteria so that your website is more likely to appear at the top of the search results. This is done by, for example, using specific keywords on each page of your website. It is also important that the content of the website is well-written and readable.<\/p>\n

Our website design services include optimizing your website for search engines.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n

Online marketing tools<\/span> <\/strong><\/h3>\n

Even though digital marketing is very different from previous marketing strategies, many concepts remain the same. Marketing tools have just become more digitally accessible.<\/p>\n

For example, instead of printing out fliers to hand out on street corners, it may make more sense to have an advert that can be shared via an e-mail or on social media. Digital marketing tools include Facebook adverts, website banners, e-mail templates and digital business cards.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
