Online Branding Strategies – Branding Through Search Engines
Increase and Maintain Brand Equity Through Search
People buy based on trust, recognition, convenience, and only then… price. There are exceptions to the rule, but would you trust an unknown retailer with a $4000 TV purchase and no clear guarantees? Or would you head out to Best Buy, pay $200 bucks more and feel safe?
Brand is one of the most important assets a company has.
Development and maintenance of a powerful brand through search engines comes with key aspect - Brand Recall.
Building Your Brand on Search Engines
Successful branding on search engines comes through constant recall of your company’s website on search engines for keywords searched by potential customers.
If a website shows up on best search engine spots for various keywords, users develop a degree of trust and respect for that site. When it comes to final purchase, they feel more comfortable and safe about a purchase from that website, rather than any other web property.
For example - Marry wants to get a mortgage and purchase a new house. She knows little about mortgages, mortgage companies or the process of attaining a mortgage. She goes out to Google with the following questions.
- How do I get a mortgage?
- What are good mortgage options?
- Which is a good mortgage company?
Marry needs to answer those questions before she’ll get a mortgage. She may use the following keywords with questions in mind:
| Question | Keywords used on a search engine |
| How do I get a mortgage? | = how get mortgage |
| What are good mortgage options? | = good mortgage options |
| Which is a good mortgage company? | = good mortgage company |
If a company’s website shows up on top of search result for all 3 questions and Marry finds answers helpful, she will develop a degree of trust and appeal for that website [and Company’s Brand], because she found what she needed, when she wanted it.
She may head back to search engines and research more questions. If the same website shows up on top again, she will eventually develop trust, get used the brand name, and turn to it when she's ready for business.
By giving users information they need, when they need it your company can develop strong brand association, increasing customer base.
