Thanks Nick. Yes, all those SEO sites, yet somehow I stay busy. Perhaps its not so much just mentioning the acronym as actually knowing something about it that matters.

Wow: 863 million websites globally that mention “SEO.” Talk about an industry that’s bloated – glad i’m doing web design! Some awesome stats Tom!

Hi Tom,

Thanks for your input about the conversion for banner ads. I think the other thing is creating awareness of the product being promoted.
Visitors see the product banner many times even if they don’t click on them. Slowly the product is being inscribed in his mind like TV ads.
No one goes and buys a product after a seeing the TV ad. But the mind does register the impression and is slowly getting ready for a possible click or buy in future..
And thanks for such a solid dose of Social Marketing facts! There are some extremely useful insights in these observations that you make!

Hi Mike – my general experience, which is on the B2B side rather than consumer marketing, is that banner ads generally produce a low CTR but a respectably high conversion rate. As such, if bought on a cost-per-click basis, they are effective for both branding and lead gen.
