Nigeria is seeing a lot of growth in the ecommerce sector. Most shop owners are bringing their store online while some are creating online stores from scratch. The right search marketing strategy can bring you to the first page of Google and top 5 positions.
A great chunk of marketing budget is being spent on search engine optimization and the goal is to obtain the highest possible ranking.
However, sites can be removed quickly from the first page of Google if there is a change in algorithm. In maintaining search traffic, suggested keywords, personalized search results, and local results are very important.
A local business would have great leverage with local listings which will require being active on Google + and other local platforms.
Search Marketing can influence ecommerce through;
1. Product Listing Advertising
2. Pay-Per-Click Advertising
3. Social Platforms (Facebook, Twitter, Google+, Pinterest, Instagram)
