🚨 Big news: Cision has announced that Connectively, formerly HARO, will be discontinued on December 9, 2024. It's a significant moment, but not surprising. HARO was once a valuable tool for connecting experts with journalists, but over time, the focus seemed to shift. As pricing climbed, its value as a backlink source dropped, especially after the acquisition. Backlinks remain essential in SEO, but HARO's rigid pricing didn’t adapt to these shifts. Instead of enhancing accessibility and value for loyal users, it felt like they were squeezing every dollar out of the platform. In the end, this approach missed the mark – high costs without the return on investment led to HARO's decline. If you're impacted by this, remember to export any essential data by December 9. And let’s keep innovating and finding ways to connect authentically with our audiences. #SEO #DigitalMarketing #HARO #Cision #MarketingNews

P2P Marketing
When done right, pay-per-click advertising can be a very effective technique for accomplishing business goals, whether for small or large businesses. It complements your search engine optimization effort and should be part of your social media marketing strategy. It allows you to set a pre-defined monthly ad spend budget and track how those marketing dollars deliver results. If you’re wondering where to begin or how to improve your existing campaigns, we have reviewed such digital agencies, along with their range of services and notable clients. #digitalmarketing #marketingagencies #ppcagencies https://lnkd.in/gqxeu4Gd

Huge Local Service Ads News: Your Google Business Profile is now the source of truth for LSA. LSA ads will be paused if you do not have a GBP attached to an LSA. If your GBP name or address information does not match LSA, you will be paused. The same goes for unverified and suspended GBPs. A few notes as the messaging from LSA is horrible: Please do not make new GBP's if you already have one. Please do not make a new LSA just because they say so; consult an expert. Additionally, GBP will be the only source of reviews for LSA. I think that it make sense that "verified" reviews will port into GBP.

Schema markup is like cliff notes for search-engines, it helps them process information more efficiently and accurately (if done correctly). A definite must in your overall SEO strategy. https://lnkd.in/gfQyJJEY #SEO #schema #structureddata #marketing

🤔I'm curious about how you're calculating CPL.🧑💼 😇For our campaigns, we’re operating across 4 different states, And each lead comes through a landing page with a strict verification process—17 qualifying questions, 🥵 🥲Plus both email and phone verification, including cell phone numbers. 🤨With this extensive filtering to ensure quality, is it reasonable to pay $50-$80 per lead?😅 🤮It feels high given our criteria, but I’d love to get your perspective
