Why?
Google is sales – social media is branding!
1. Intention.
When someone searches google, they are ready to invest in a specific service or product in a specific area. However, when people are surfing social media, they are looking to be entertained or connecting with friends and relatives and scrolling right by your add. Sure, transactions occur but on inexpensive impulse items, usually less than $25. Fishing for clients on social media is similar to real fishing, you can invest hours waiting for a single bite whereas thousands of consumers are actively searching for solutions on google.
2. More people use Google than any other search engine.
According to recent statistics, Google holds a staggering 92.18% market share for search engines worldwide. Another study by Chitika found that 63.6% of web traffic comes from Google Search. That's more than double the traffic from the next most popular source, Facebook. That means that if you're not optimizing your site for Google, you're missing out on a huge chunk of potential traffic.
3. Google is more trusted than social media.
A study by Edelman found that 66% of people trust search engines like Google to give them accurate information, while only 47% trust social media sites like Facebook.
4. Better closing rate and analytics.
SEO leads have a 14.6% close rate, while social media has a 1.5% close rate for smart home and home theater services.
In other words, people who find your website through a search engine are far more likely to actually do business with you than people who find you through an ad or social media post. When you want to track results and measure success: Digital marketing provides you with more data and analytics than traditional marketing, so you can track your progress and adjust your campaigns accordingly.
5. SEO is more cost-effective than social media marketing.
According to a study by SEOmoz, the cost per lead for SEO is about $80, while the cost per lead for social media is about $133.
So if you're looking to get more bang for your marketing buck, SEO is the way to go. Invest in a good SEO campaign and you'll see real results that last long-term. Social media may be popular, but it can't hold a candle to the power of Google search.
