Let's face it. Poster printing may be a great way to advertise your business and products, but it takes more thought that simply hanging a poster and hoping for the best. Unlike direct mailers where much of the targeting is done for you, poster marketing requires you to put a little thought and planning into how you want to implement your campaign so you get the most bang for your buck. With that in mind, let me give you a few simple tips you may not have thought about.
Differences Count: One single poster isn't going to appeal to every person that might view it so consider printing a variety of posters and target them at different audiences. Poster printing is inexpensive enough to allow for this sort of strategy and the upside of this approach is that it allows you to be everything to everyone, so to speak. Of course, your product won't be for everyone, but by reaching out to the most groups you can will help ensure that your marketing message takes root.
Size Matters: Perhaps the most important factor in the success of a poster marketing campaign is visibility, or where you place your posters. Larger posters won't fit everywhere, though, and smaller posters might not stand out stapled to a telephone pole on the side of the road. Consider printing your poster in a variety of sizes so that you can use them in a variety of environments for maximum efficiency.
More is Better: One poster might get overlooked easily enough. Why not post three or four side by side to create larger advertising space for yourself? Naturally, this will be in poor taste if you're posting them on a community bulletin board, but if you have a large wall with plenty of empty space, why not go for it? Making a large row or block of posters like this also helps minimize the chances that your poster will be covered up by other's flyers and posters.
No single tip is going to guarantee you success, but keeping these in mind can help you get more out of your poster marketing efforts. The main factor is going to be your poster itself and it's ability to catch consumer attention. If your posters aren't distributed effectively in the first place, though, there is little hope for even the best of poster designs to generate results. A professionally printed poster and thoughtful placement and implementation are your keys to increased profits and a return on your advertising investment.
One of the most crucial mistakes I made when I first started Internet Marketing was not completely understand the importance of proper back linking, anchor tags, keywords and the title tag. The most important things to search engines is providing relevancy to search results using keywords in the anchor tags and back links. Back links to your website has become one of the most or if not important aspects to better Search Engine Result Positioning (SERP) using your keywords in your anchor tags.
One of the most common mistakes that I personally made with my website was in the title was:
Title: Succeed Online with ES-Solution
The problem with that title was; What does that have to do with my website and keywords? Search Engines base a lot of importance on the keywords and the anchor tag contained in the back link. Additionally, I submitted my website to many directories and search engines using that title. What I am telling the search engines? That my most important keyword or keyword phrase is "Succeed Online with ES-Solution." How many possible searches do you believe would have that exact phrase or keywords? Zero.
My rankings for my keyword phrase "Internet Marketing eBooks" were even more horrible!
Steps to avoiding this same mistake:
Step 1: Never using a descriptive title
Step 2: Choose the most relevant Keywords for your Title
Step 3: Create back links using the appropriate anchor tag.
My actions:
1. I changed my title to "Internet Marketing eBooks". Another important idea behind your title and keywords is that the search engines will shift around your keywords to make more phrases. I only have 3 Keywords but using different combination, I have 3 good keyword phrases:
(1) Internet Marketing eBooks
(2) Marketing eBooks
(3) Internet Marketing
2. And I began re-submitting my website to directories and search engines with the proper title (anchor tag): "Internet Marketing eBooks"
My results:
(1) I have several back links with the anchor text "Internet Marketing eBooks", but unfortunately I still have some of the old back links with the anchor text "Succeed on with ES-Solution" dropping my overall relevancy to 54% when it should be 100%.
(2) I have managed to achieve the number high ranking as for the keyword phrase "Internet Marketing eBooks" in the major search engines.
