How’s your content marketing working for you? If the answer is bleak, it’s probably time to step up your game with some basic optimization technology. On top of the usual web marketing challenges, Facebook’s changes to its News Feed algorithm have caused a nose dive to marketers’ organic reach on that all-important platform. Very unfortunate. Businesses have reported a staggering drop of more than forty percent in their referral business from Facebook since the change took effect. The Facebook issue is just one big reason to adopt new strategies. Here are some effective web marketing tools to enhance your online marketing performance this year.
SumoMe — SumoMe improves your content’s reach. It provides an excellent list-builder. And, it has a feature that tracks mouse movement to indicate when a visitor is planning to exit from your website. This allows your system to prompt pop-up messages with special offers actually customized to the individual visitor, email opt-in help, and CTAs. The program displays share-buttons, and it auto-evaluates ideal placement for those on your pages. SumoMe can be a real help in increasing your social sharing frequency.
Ninja Outreach — Ninja Outreach helps identify social influencers, providing an abundance of contact information on tens of millions of users.
