Domain Investing Stats and Tips

Google and Small Businesses

November 30, 2012 by Raymond Hackney

  1. Why you just may have to use Google + in your marketing efforts
  2. Google Reviews
  3. Algorithms and SEO
  4. Why you don't have to use Adwords
  5. Focusing on quality content

Eridon also is balanced in the article and writes about where Google has helped small business.

But Google is still helping businesses — yes, small ones, too — get found easily and for very little monetary investment. And they've made it even better in the past couple of years by integrating social media into search — another marketing channel that has big results for few (or no) dollars. In fact, take a look at how cost efficient SEO ranked as a lead gen channel in our 2012 State of Inbound Marketing report:
