Your DP should be your logo and tell your business details clearly on the profile description along with the website domain.

Emails are a gift to your marketing process. With the help of email-ids, you can re-target your customers for your new products or services. You can also convey your seasonal deals or offers to them easily.
Retaining old customers is a big thing that can be done with the help of email. Email marketing is the process where you send informative emails (about your business updates) to your visitors/customers.

• Best Way to Get Email:

Getting a customer’s email requires some action. You can ask for feedback from your customers along with their email-id.
Some other ways are, providing free eBooks or free access to your specific products/services is the proven way to get the customers’ mail-ids.
Build an email list and keep connecting with them regularly to receive old and new customers.

8. SEO and Paid Ads:

The last step to implement is SEO and paid ads. These two processes are the same with a small difference.

• SEO:

Search Engine Optimization (SEO) is the process of optimizing content based on keywords. Keywords are the search terms used by the people on search engines to get some information or to reach some business.

Some of the popular search engines are Google, YouTube, Bing, Pinterest, Facebook, etc., Every search engine varies with the keyword's popularity. Try to use keywords that are used by most people. At the same time, concentrate on long-term and low-competitive keywords to rank easily on search engines.

On-Page SEO: On-Page SEO is the process of optimizing website content based on search terms. This will improve the ranking of your website on search engines.

Off-Page SEO: Off-Page SEO is the process of developing backlinks to your website. When someone reaches your website through another website, that site creates a backlink to your website. Backlinks also help to rank higher on search results.

SEO should be followed in all the above-mentioned marketing strategies.

• Paid Ads:

Paid ads are a faster way to get customers and to make sales. Running a paid digital marketing campaign like a social media marketing campaign, Google Ads campaigns are more effective than the above processes. This process is mentioned as SEM (Search Engine Marketing) which is all about running paid advertisements.

The difference between SEO and SEM is, you have to pay some amount for the SEM process whereas SEO is a free process for driving traffic. As a beginner, it is not necessary to use paid ads, but if you want to get customers quickly, paid ads are worth investing in.

To save your cost on paid ads, you can use A/B tests. This means you can create two types of content and implement them at two different times. The content which receives more engagements or conversions is the best one that you can use for a long-time.
