Online Advertising Campaigns Fail For 3 Main Reasons

There is a fine line between success and failure in the digital marketing industry.
Ensure your brand strategy is primed for prosperity by avoiding these mistakes in your next campaign.
Whether people are browsing websites from their mobile phones, checking the news on portable tablets, or buying products online, it cannot be disputed that everyone is spending more time online.
The Internet has never been more convenient than it is today, and just about everyone looks for information online.
Hence, online advertising is an important part of any contemporary marketing strategy.
Yet despite the effective reach of online marketing, there are still ways in which an online advertising campaign can fail.
Here are three of the reasons why your strategy may not go according to plan.
1. You're Just Copying Your
Competitors
One of the best things that you can do to generate ideas for your own marketing campaign when you're just getting started is to research your competitors and study what they've been doing. However, getting inspiration from people in the same market doesn't mean you should simply copy and paste their ideas onto your own website. What works perfectly for your competitors won't always work quite as well for you.
The truth is that most marketing channels are already overly-saturated, making PPC campaigns incredibly expensive for broad
keywords and phrases. With this in mind,you'll need to think outside of the box for marketing methods that aren't quite as easy to copy.
For instance, you could try combining your banner advertisements and social media marketing schemes with content
production to generate more traffic. With content marketing, you can analyze the things that matter most to your audience
and offer them potential solutions to their problems. This lets you develop an authoritative position within your market, and establish yourself as a location that offers value.
2. Your Advertisements Aren't
Consumable
Today, a great deal of online marketing success comes through social media. If your ideas, messages, banners, and landing pages can't be translated and
shared through blog posts, videos, and tweets, then you may need to scrap your current plan and start over from scratch.
Advertising yourself doesn't have to be a lengthy process involving huge blocks of text. Grabbing your audience's attention can be done in as little as 140 characters, if you know how to generate interest properly.
Also, remember that most people are currently browsing the Internet via smartphones. In fact, mobile media usage is at 51 percent, making it more popular
than desktops at only 42 percent. With that in mind, any of the creative content, ads, and banners that you develop and post should be able to function just as well on a smartphone screen as they would on a laptop or desktop.
If the way that you market yourself isn't optimized to fit on all different shapes and screen sizes, chances are, you are losing out on a significant percentage of possible
future customers. Indeed, an easy way to immediately shut the door on new relationships with customers is to provide links that send mobile users directly to desktop websites where they can't click buttons or fill out forms.
3. You're Focusing on Traffic
Instead of Conversions
After getting in touch with a professional online marketer, you might find that the first thing they try to sell you on is how much extra traffic they can send toward your website or landing pages. Although
traffic is important for developing a positive online presence, it's crucial to remember that the ultimate goal should be conversions - not traffic.
Traffic is all well and good, but it's useless to find that you've had thousands of people visit your website within a day, if none of them purchased your product or
signed up for your newsletter. Remember that traffic doesn't necessarily equate to profits and increased revenue.
Online advertising campaigns shouldn't just focus on driving traffic. Rather,optimizing conversion rates should be priority. Ideally, you want to ensure that people are actually completing the desired action when they arrive on your website or landing page. All the attention in the world is futile if you can't translate the number of views your website gets into an actual profit.
Your advertising efforts will not be in vain if you create innovative content that can translate well on both mobile and desktop, and is creatively executed in a manner that incites user engagement and
ultimately stimulates conversions. Making note of these common missteps and being aware of their potentially damaging consequences will put you on the path to success.

Dangerous sex Positions For Men

The most common cause of pénile injury is found among the variety of potentially dangerous positions used for séxual intercourse. The most popular is the ‘woman-on-top’. This type of position can result in an impact between the pénis against the female pelvis or perineum that can easily traumatize the pénile cylinders. A pénis becomes érect when the lining of the cylinder within it is engorged with blood.  A pénis fracture can occur when there is trauma to the eréct pénis, resulting in a rupture of the cylinder lining. This very painful injury is often accompanied by an abrupt, distressing cracking noise that is immediately followed by dark bruising of the pénis due to blood escaping the cylinder. In ten to 30% of pénis fractures, the urethra is damaged and blood may be visible at the urinary opening. Given these signs, an injury should be relatively simple to diagnose, right? You would be surprised, even with the unsettling sounds of a fracture occurring, many men...

Google Authenticator, a formidable layer of protection to your account.

​Google Authenticator is a free security app that can protect your accounts against password theft. It's easy to set up and can be used in a process called two-factor authentication (2FA) offered on popular social media services like Gmail, Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, etc.  The app ( iOS / Android ) generates a random code used to verify your identity when you're logging into various services.

AWS Battles Rivals: Advertising Campaign

Amazon Web Services has defeated IBM in a competition for lucrative federal contracts, threatened Microsoft's core businesses, and reshaped corporate technology. In the last few months, the pioneering cloud-computing unit of the online retail giant has taken a page from the playbook of some of its more traditional competitors: It started advertising. Ads have been splashed across billboards and in airport terminals, television spots and web videos, featuring a whiteboard full of sketches of software architecture and appeals to invent something using Amazon's collection of rented computing services. The advertising campaign, which bears the "Build On" tagline, represents a milestone in AWS' march from technology upstart to one of the major players in business software, technologists and marketers say. For many years, AWS didn't advertise, partly because it didn't have to. The service held a wide lead over the competition, and word-of-mouth was enough to...
