New subscription terms released by Apple

The newest development in the Apple world is that it will implement new subscription terms for publishers who want to offer newspapers, magazines, music and videos to its highly popular iPad.
The new subscription terms will now ask publishers to give Apple a 30 percent share of the cost of new subscriptions to the above mentioned content.

Get SMART with your PPC campaigns – part 2

To optimize your pay per click campaigns it sometimes helps to use tried and tested marketing tools to keep you focused on the job in hand. The SMART acronym is a great way of making sure you have planned your PPC campaign well and to ensure you stand the best chance of getting great results. Following on from the previous article here are more ways to use SMART:

Attainable and Realistic
These targets go hand in hand. Is it a realistic goal to boost orders by 25 per cent within a certain time period? It might well be possible but you’ll have other factors that contribute towards it being possible. Sales tend to be driven partly by radio and/or TV exposure within the direct response industry. If the exposure to these media remains unchanged for a product then it can be very hard to increase PPC campaign results significantly. It is of paramount importance to understand that small improvements to click though rates or conversions will only affect the revenues generated if there is a large increase in traffic.

Timely
The timing is essential for all direct response campaigning particularly where products have a small life span. The life span may be affected by seasonality – for example gardening products tend to be popular in spring and summer – or whether it is driven by market demand – for example, technology is driving an updated version within six months – you must maximize the efforts of pay per click when most effective.

Is your site mapped? All too many sites go through search engine optimisation, but fail to cap it off with an XML sitemap. These maps are important for a site’s communication with the search engines, and should be updated frequently.

The purpose of an XML sitemap is slightly different from its on-screen cousin, the regular site map that you will display for your site’s users. An XML sitemap is there to help the search engines find their way through your site. A sitemap does exactly what it says on the box: provides a clear map of the site so that the search engines can find everything they need in the easiest manner possible.

Many site owners skip this bit of optimisation because they feel it’s unnecessary. The overhaul of site architecture during the search engine optimisation process should leave a site with clear paths for search engines to follow. If the SEO work has been properly, these site owners feel, then a sitemap should be surplus to requirements. Read the rest of this entry »
