Read moreIn the digital era, it is important to consider what tools and channels to use for achieving the set goals. They will, after all, determine the effectiveness of your marketing strategy. You need to make smart choices that will yield the best results.
When it comes to choosing the best digital marketing tools, it is hard to avoid the purported rivals — SEO (search engine optimisation) or content marketing. They are two of the most important aspects of digital marketing, never losing their relevance even in the face of constantly changing marketing trends.
This infographic by Serpwatch shows that SEO builds a strong case, with statistics showing that more than 40% of business revenue is captured by organic traffic. Content marketing, however, is not far behind. It helps businesses to get more leads through blogging.

Good move; you’re already on the right step to grabbing those top rankings for your keywords on Google!
But how can you tell if the blogger you’ve employed to write your blogs is any good?

One of the groups that I attend is the Chorley 4N Networking Group, where I am what they call Group Leader; basically, I read the script and try to keep order. It’s like herding cats.
Well, today (Tuesday 8th January 2019), I will not be reading the script, but I will instead be presenting the 4Sight, or information slot. I’ve titled it ‘How To Boss 2019 With Your Business Online’, although I only actually have 15 minutes in which to speak, so I naturally can’t cover everything.
