Social Selling
Referral Traffic From Social Media

Mobile Web #28 – Traffic Source to Your eStore?

Selling on Social?

How do customers find online shops?

WP Engines reports that — “43 percent, so almost 1/2 (half) of e-Commerce Traffic, comes from Organic Google Search.”

…. and Facebook drives nearly 2/3 of Social Media visits (over 23M) to Shopify eStores.

That’s with Organic Search methods. Not with PAID Search; where you dump in a tidy sum of CASH to Google, Facebook, WhatsApp, Instagram or Amazon etc for digital Ads that land all over the Web – YouTube, Google Shopping, big Websites with good Domain Authority …

Which means that really good articles, great targeted content and solid useful Websites that Google decides to associate with THEIR BRAND high up in the Search Results Pages.

“This means that search engine ‘optimization’ is an absolute must for anyone wanting to succeed in the e-commerce sector. What is optimizing ?

Partnering up with huge Online Travel Agencies like Tripadvisor and Expedia to get their referral traffic — for a Fee of course — works well too. It takes a decent sized marketing budget to perform well and grow an eCommerce business since getting located and found online is very challenging.

Your NAP Directory Listing or Website must show up in a prominent Google Search Page Result or on Google Maps when a local search is made. Why would you ever use a Directory Listing ? https://www.lookhere.buzz

Directory Listings provide additional topic or maybe location organization on the Web providing intelligence to search engines and page indexing with the ability to process more specific topic and content understanding driving additional Social Proof and trust legitimacy to surface the article, product or content back to the user to consider. The more good links Websites have with other good content locations; all the better for Page Rank.
