It is a Google solution that allows businesses with a local reach to manage and promote their business using a variety of features. Let’s take a closer look …

Internet and search engines are real growth levers for a business. Indeed, the appearance of your company name during searches by Internet users promotes contact. For a local business, it is all the more relevant to be present in Google Maps.

When a potential customer searches for a business, they are usually ready to make a purchase or show a strong interest in making one. It is good to know that 87% of consumers do some research online before going to a store.

  o The benefits of good Google Maps referencing for your business

To offer Internet users the best results, Google relies on geographic location when available. Indeed, from a smartphone or a computer, geolocation refines the ranking of search engine results. Thus, the search for a local store allows the display of local businesses on the first page.

  o Increase the visibility of your business website!

Google provides businesses with the ability to register and create their Google Pages through Wedigitalpro. Each establishment, even for a group, has a sheet in which it indicates practical information, such as opening hours or useful links. A section is even dedicated to animation to communicate directly with Internet users, who can respond to the services provided by posting comments.

The simple fact of correctly completing the information relating to the establishment promotes its visibility. For a distribution network, a franchise or even a group with many points of sale, this is an immediate value.

(directories are in the first SEO results on the first page, but they are well-rated establishments that appear first in Google Maps)

Internet users therefore first see your Google page. Be sure to fill out all the information relating to your establishment: opening hours, address, a phone number, your website and some photos to further attract the eye. However, be aware that the appearance of your property on the Google Maps map may vary. This is due to the location where the Internet user searches. Google aims to provide increasingly personalized results based on the user’s geolocation.

o   Promote the SEO of your business in Google

Search engine results used by more than 90% of Moroccans are composed of several simultaneous services. Advertisements, interactive maps, web pages, form the information displayed. Depending on the query typed by the user, the result changes. Geolocation or the mention of a geographical location allow the appearance of Google Maps results. When it is not easy to reach the top spots in Search Engine Optimization (SEO) due to intense competition, a business may very well be highly visible in Google Maps. Thus, being present on this service facilitates the overall visibility of an establishment which can very easily be on the first page of Google results.

o  Google Maps is a real lever for increasing your turnover

The visibility of an establishment in Google, whether it is a hotel or even a hair salon, promotes contact. By correctly indicating the contact details of the company, as well as the hours, the Internet user finds all the more easily the company that could meet his needs. And as the saying goes, the first impression is often the right one! By positioning yourself in the first results of Google Maps, the Internet user has the feeling that they have been able to quickly and efficiently access all the information to get to your home.

o   Optimize and correctly complete your Google listing

First step and not the least, the optimization of the Google listing. As mentioned above, this work consists of providing practical information, but not only! By selecting the right industry (category), and writing the right descriptions, customers will find you that much easier. Are you a barber? For example, do not forget to specify that you take care of beards, but also hairstyles if this is the case. This will hit a larger target. Also take the time to import and update photographs. It is even possible to offer a virtual tour of your establishment directly from the online interface of Google Maps. It’s a perspective on your premises that will make the difference!

o   Collect more customer reviews

There are two ways that customers are encouraged to post comments on Google. They can write a note that will be published, read by other Internet users, and to which you can respond. But they also select a rating of 1 to 5 materialized by stars. Users are now very accustomed to this operation. We could also say that it is star wars, since in order to display the most relevant results to customers, Google will naturally favor businesses with satisfactory or even very good ratings.

Small or large business, whatever it is must know how to communicate with Internet users. However, the diversity of networks sometimes leads to scattered communication that does not give the expected results. These tips will help you find your way around Twitter, Instagram, Facebook or even Snapchat and may give you some ideas that will bear fruit in the short or long term.

4.95 billion.

That’s the amount of content shared on Facebook every day. On social media, we are exposed to a ton of visuals, texts and videos every day. This exposure is multiplied by the number of pages and social accounts that each user follows. Then there are the advertisements.
74% of businesses use social media in their marketing strategy because it’s effective, it costs nothing (or very little), and it’s effective at increasing awareness.
Then you find yourself, as a new business, in the midst of this crowd not knowing what to do to get noticed and cared about your brand.
Here are 6 tips to apply to effectively stand out on social networks.

1. Develop a relevant strategy

At the beginning, you must set up a strategy and know precisely what your objectives are on social networks: increase your traffic, increase your brand awareness, convert prospects … Have a strategy that will allow you to define the type of content that you need to share on social networks, how often, and to have a concrete plan of actions to take. To help you create an effective strategy, try answering these questions:

• Who do you create content for? Who is your target?
• What is the problem what is your audience meeting? How can you solve it?
• What makes your brand unique and sets you apart from the competition?
• On which social networks will you publish your content?

This strategy will help you not to post with your eyes closed and you will know exactly why you are doing it and what it can do for you.

2. Set goals and choose the right social networks:

Facebook, Twitter, Instagram … social networks are good for the job!

Why do you want to be present on social networks?

The answer to this question will not only allow you to better choose your social media, but also to adopt the right tone. Indeed, we do not communicate in the same way when we seek to make ourselves known as when we want to work on our customer relationship.
Before creating an account on all social networks, take the time to think about how you will be able to promote your products / services on the different platforms.
If you are the only one to manage your social networks, you will not be able to be everywhere and it will be imperative to make a choice. This is why you should choose only what will be most effective for you. There are two important criteria for choosing the right networks:

– Take into account where your audience is. Indeed, you should be able to determine which social networks your ideal customers like to spend time on.
– You like to be on this social network. This may not be applicable for large companies that have staff to manage their social networks. I am speaking to those who run their business on their own, and therefore take care of their social networks themselves.
 

3. Know your audience inside out

If you know exactly who you are talking to, it will be much easier to post content that will interest your audience and your strategy will be much more effective.
To find out what works best and what appeals to your audience the most, try out different types of content in different forms. You can then eliminate what does not seem effective with your analytics tools, and focus on what is relevant.
It is also recommended to diversify the type of content offered, in order to surprise its audience, but above all not to tire it out.

4. Focus on visuals

Parlant du partage de photos, 65% des personnes sont des apprenants visuels, alors n’oubliez pas de partager non seulement des images de ce qui se passe dans les coulisses de votre entreprise, mais aussi des photos personnelles qui expriment la substance de votre marque. Aussi, n’oubliez pas de poster des vidéos en direct informatives, infographie et graphiques de devis.
Quel que soit le canal que vous utilisez, les publications et les tweets contenant du contenu visuel génèrent beaucoup plus d’engagement.

5. Surfing Hashtags

These little words or phrases preceded by a # are no longer as trendy but they allow you to be able to move up posts thanks to the tabs
trends and algorithms particularly present on social networks Twitter and Instagram.

6. Get advice from your audience

Be proactive with your target audience and subscribers. Beyond just engaging with them on social media, make them feel valued and respected by asking for their opinion or advice on a particular topic. By asking a relevant industry-related question, you can be the talking people and creating a dialogue between your followers. It is also a great tool for getting feedback on your products or services.
Not only will you show your target audience how important they are to you, but you will also show how much you trust them. In turn, this will go a long way in earning their trust

Why be present on social networks?

• Because your customers are on social networks!
• Because your accounts allow you to build and maintain relationships with your audience!
• Because your pages on social networks allow your customers to get to know you better!
• Because it’s the best way to share your content!
• Because they are a major source of traffic for your website!
• Because they actively participate in your natural referencing!

There are many search engine optimization (SEO) techniques that can increase the visibility of your website. Due to the large number of large-scale SEO strategies available, it can be easy to ignore some of the smaller (but still important) tasks. For example, creating an effective meta description.
Meta descriptions are snippets of text displayed in search engine results. As a result, they are one of the first things a potential visitor will see. Optimizing this element helps you grab their attention and communicates important information to the search engine itself. Fortunately, setting up meta descriptions is straightforward.

How meta descriptions work (and why they’re important)

When someone comes across your content in a search engine, they usually see a title, URL, and a short paragraph called a meta description:

For many potential visitors, this meta description provides a first impression of your site. Therefore, it plays an important role in deciding whether or not to see your content.
You don’t need to create your own meta description. Google will automatically create one by choosing a few phrases it deems relevant to your site. However, you are probably in a better position than Googlebot to decide how your content should be described.
Moreover, setting up a custom meta description also provides information to the search engine itself. Google will pay attention to your meta descriptions and use them to better understand what your content is and who it might be relevant to.
Unfortunately, creating a meta description does not guarantee that it will show up in Google. Various factors can cause the search engine to display its own generated description instead. However, if you carefully optimize your meta description, there’s a good chance it will be shown to searchers, especially for your target keyword. Moreover, it will provide valuable information to Google in both cases. Therefore, it is worth learning how to create a meta description.

How to define a meta description

When optimizing your site for search engines, you need to create targeted keywords for your publications, optimize URLs, improve the readability of your content and above all configure a meta description.
Writing and optimization of your meta descriptions
However, it is important to understand how to create effective descriptions that produce results.
Each meta description you write should be a brief summary of the content to which it is attached. You will need to explain what the page, post or anything else is all about in a clear and concise manner.

In particular, the following considerations must be taken into account:

Length: Google has made periodic changes to the allowed length for meta descriptions. Currently, there is no specific cut-off point, although the search engine typically displays between 160 and 320 characters. If in doubt, you’d better write detailed meta descriptions that can be up to 300 characters long, but “upload” the most important information so that it shows up no matter how much Google decides. to include.

tone: The way you write your meta descriptions should reflect the style and tone of your site. Whether your content is informative and professional, or casual and humorous, a strong meta description will follow.

Keywords: Meta descriptions are a great place to incorporate keywords that you’re trying to rank for highly. Since they’re so short, it’s best to stick with one or two main sentences that you want to emphasize.

Value for reader: A solid meta description tells the reader what they get from clicking on your content URL. So let them know exactly what they will learn or gain from visiting your site.

Here’s an example of an optimized meta description for the post you’re reading right now:

“To rank well in search engine results, you need to know how to optimize your website. This includes learning about meta descriptions – the text that advertises your content to searchers. This article explains what meta descriptions are and shows you how to properly create a meta description ”

This description is a good length – 298 characters – and concisely explains what the message is. In addition, it tells the researcher exactly what they will learn from reading it. In addition, the description makes the main topic clear from the start. It will therefore be useful even if it is truncated by Google.
You can master the art of writing great meta descriptions with just a little practice. In addition, you can find helpful tips from Google itself to write the perfect description.

Optimizing your website for search engines requires the implementation of several techniques. Meta descriptions may seem unimportant, but they are extremely valuable to both your human visitors and search engine bots.
Setting up a meta description is actually a simple task, you just need to:

1. Add unique meta descriptions when creating posts or pages.
2. Create general meta descriptions for your site

We have seen in previous articles how to stand out on social networks and how to build a Social Media strategy. The latter is intended in particular to define how to exist in time. We will now focus on how to exist in real time. The actions defined by the Social Media strategy implemented made it possible to build a community. Now it’s time to animate it.
Social networks are a medium that can be integrated into a multi-channel communication strategy. B2B or B2C customers are present on the web: individuals have one or more social profiles, companies have professional pages. The web therefore makes it possible to reach these targets effectively.

An increase in your visibility

To be able to live and attract new customers, your brand must be visible on social networks. Also, your involvement will allow you to make yourself known and increase your presence in the vast space offered by the Internet. A very powerful tool, therefore, if we manage to animate its pages with tact and thought.

Improving your brand image

Social networks allow more dynamic and direct communication than traditional media. They thus leave companies the possibility of valuing themselves more simply by showing their difference and putting forward a more connected image. An essential point in the era of new technologies and globalization.

A participatory place

Today, Internet users no longer want to be passive and they readily appreciate being consulted, participating or giving their opinion. Animating your pages on social networks will allow you to make them interact and, thus involved, they will not hesitate to advertise you.
Doing community management, or animating its pages on social networks, is ultimately essential for every company that wants to make a difference on the net. Looking for inspiration or know-how, the best solution may be to call on a web professional.

Animate your social networks and engage your community!

1. Write highly targeted, very interesting content:
This trick is a little easy, but it is so little used on some accounts that we had to remember it; As in any web marketing strategy, start by imagining your avatars / your targets and their desires.

2. Take care of your titles and hooks:

3. Images, images, more images:

To get the attention of the social user in their newsfeeds flooded with posts, think outside the box. Think of old advertisements to talk about an innovative product, think of animated and funny GIFs related to the subject, think of images from films out of sync with the subject, in short, get noticed. A good headline and a good image are the best chance for a successful publication!

4. Engage in the conversation:

Ask questions ! Create polls! Give your opinion on the news; Once the conversation has started, you can then spot your ambassadors: these Internet users who follow you, like, comment on and often share your publications. The day you need to give maximum impact to one of your content, you can directly ask them to share or retweet massively.

What is the digital identity of a company?

Digital identity is the traces that a company voluntarily or unintentionally leaves on the Internet. Several elements go into the construction of a digital identity.

To understand the digital identity of a company, below are some elements:

What are the traces left voluntarily by the company?

These traces are the information published by the Marketing or communication department on the website, publications or communications on social networks (linkedin, Facebook, youtube, etc.), location on Google maps, professional directories (Kerix, telecontact …) Etc. It can also be press releases linked by the various media (newspapers, radio, TV, etc.) on their internet media.

Why manage the corporate image?

Today, digital identity has become essential for all types of business. The good management of a digital identity makes it possible to distinguish oneself from competing companies and thus attract new customers and increase turnover.

It is therefore compulsory for any company to create and take care of its digital image. However, it should be understood that the digital identity of a company is of three types, namely the desired image, the visual image and the perceived image.

The desired digital image

This facet is the one we want to convey to customers or prospects. This image matches the brand’s image. Presenting this aspect amounts to drawing up an inventory of its sector of activity and defining its expertise, and what differentiates it from its competitors.

The visual image

This operation corresponds to the visual identity, it is about the website, advertising and the social network that the company sets up.

L’image perçue

It is about the image of the company as seen from the outside by internet users and consumers. It is the result of the first two elements because the perception of the company depends on the objectives and actions implemented previously.

How to properly manage the digital identity of the company? 

To better manage a company’s identity, it is necessary to analyze its reputation on the web. We call it e-reputation.   

L’e-reputation will make it possible to carry out a strategic watch on all the activities of the company. This will make it possible, for example, to see all the traces of the company on search engines.

Good digital identity management also involves updating information and regularly creating content while interacting with customers. These actions will make it possible to create and maintain a privileged link with Internet users.

Learning a foreign language always depends on a goal. It can be a personal reason: The pleasure of discovering the culture of others at the same time and strengthening one’s capacity for integration into the community.

Learning a language can be for a professional reason: To communicate with customers, or foreign suppliers.

In this article, we explain how to learn a new language.

1 Immerse yourself in the language

It is highly recommended that you bond with people whose native language is the one you want to learn. They can be your friends, coworkers or acquaintances on the Internet.

It should be understood that memorizing only words or sentences is not enough, it is absolutely necessary to speak. So if you have the means, don’t hesitate to visit a country where the language you want to learn is spoken.

If you don’t have the means, the internet today allows you to communicate with people from all over the world who share the same passions as we do without leaving your room.

2 Practice the language daily

Learning a foreign language does not happen in a short time. Depending on your motivation, make a daily plan to exercise a little each day. Going forward at a steady pace will benefit you.

3 Repeat regularly

Repetition is very useful while learning a language, so it is necessary to repeat things until you can remember them more easily. Professor Yury Shtyrov has demonstrated that it takes listening to a new word 160 times for a quarter of an hour to memorize it forever.

Repetition will help you improve pronunciation. This will allow you to formulate sentences and work on your accent without too much difficulty.

4 Consolidate your motivation

Learning a foreign language does not happen in a short time. Depending on your motivation, make a daily plan to exercise a little each day

Larousse defines motivation as “Reasons, interests, elements that push someone to take action; made for someone to be motivated to act ”.

To stay motivated, you need to find motivators, including remembering your goal and why you are learning. The pleasure of achieving one’s goal (to earn more money, to develop professionally, etc.) counterbalances the effort required.

To train online, motivation is the main factor in progress. The results of the “Motivating factors in online courses” study (Selvi, 2010) show that certain factors increase motivation for online training.

5 Learn basic vocabulary

It should be remembered that vocabulary is the basis of a language. Depending on your goal you can make a word list to facilitate your learning.

According to the BBC News online relayed by the international mail newspaper, “You can understand 75% of English-speaking conversations by mastering only 800 of the most used lemmas. On the other hand, it takes 3,000 to follow the dialogue in a film and 8,000 to read a novel or a newspaper article ”.

6 Use multiple media

It is advisable to diversify the learning materials. For example, practicing writing, listening to podcasts, audiobooks, documentaries or reading documents written in this language. The diversification of the supports will allow you to discover with which channel you can feel better to better achieve your goal.

7 Learn a new language in one term

By devoting a little more than 2 hours a day to learning a language, you will be able, in one term, to communicate with a new language. You only need to learn 800 words to start communicating with a foreign language, and a quarter of an hour to learn a word. So 200 hours of learning are enough to learn a new language.

This is why wedigitalpro offers online language training, with a one-term formula.

7 dental marketing strategies that work to attract new patients

1. Who is your audience?

You need to know your audience. This is the very first step in creating successful dental marketing strategies. You need to identify your audience in order to target them correctly.
Do you want to become more of a family dentist who offers affordable products and services? Or do you want to be more of a high-end dentist who caters to a higher paying clientele?

You need to know your audience. This is the very first step in creating successful dental marketing strategies. You need to identify your audience in order to target them correctly.
Do you want to become more of a family dentist who offers affordable products and services? Or do you want to be more of a high-end dentist who caters to a higher paying clientele?

You have to decide from the start so you can plan your dental marketing strategies accordingly. Although you can use various types of long-term customers, it is wise to target a specific audience when you initially develop your dental marketing strategies. A good example of your audience is learning to keep in mind that women made up more than 90% of each tooth socket buying decision.
So if you are targeting families, this information indicates you to target your marketing efforts with moms! This is huge and shows how a specific segment of your audience can have power. But again, this is just one example of understanding your audience. To be truly accurate in identifying your specific audience you need to do some research and reflection. Identifying your target market is a crucial step in developing your dental marketing strategies. It tells you who to target and guide your approach on how to market them.

2. Know your competition

Just as important as knowing your audience is knowing your competition. Knowing your audience means knowing how to target them correctly. On the other hand, knowing your competition is understanding what practices and what your audience offers, it is choosing between. If you know what other dental offices have to offer, you can respond by creating your own unique offers. One strategy is to improve what they already offer. Another is to bring something totally new to the market.

Either way, you will have to learn how to improve the competition. You may have to beat them at their own game to do so.

Consider using these strategies:

• How do they advertise their services and products? If they offer discounts, maybe you can come up with a better deal or better value.
• Does it accept patients without an appointment or only by appointment? You can offer both services plus on weekends by appointment.
• Google is of course a great way to research the competition. Use it to your advantage by looking at what they offer.

• Vous pouvez également consulter les commentaires qu’ils reçoivent pour voir ce que votre marché cible partagé aime et n’aime pas dans sa pratique!
• You can also hire a digital marketing company to do competitor analysis for you.

You have to learn everything you can about your competition to create your dental marketing strategies.

3.You can’t beat a solid offer

Who can resist a strong offer? Not a lot, if you do it right.

A strong offering will get your business noticed and help attract people to your practice. Whether you are targeting a low, middle, or high income audience, everyone is budgeting. Everyone likes to cut the cost of necessities where they can without reducing the quality. Show them that your practice can help them. You can tailor your offers to the audience niche based on the research you’ve already done in Steps 1 and 2.

There are several ways to implement this. Look at the following offers as examples:

• Discount package for families of four or more who book an appointment for cleaning or any type of service you wish to include.
• Special mover offer that is sent to people and especially families who have just moved to the area.
• Offer free cleaning at every dental medical appointment.

Be careful in choosing the type of offer you are going to make. Offers are not effective if they don’t appeal to the person to whom you are making the offer. For example, it doesn’t matter how many times you go back and cut prices on a family discount that your firm applies if your target audience is predominantly single men.

Make smart and strategic offers to create the most effective dental marketing strategy.

4. Custom content

Let’s talk about some figures from the dental industry. Keep in mind that numbers don’t lie, so you can base your dental marketing strategies on them.

Did you know that over 50% of potential dental patients go online if they want to find a new dental provider? This is a significant number! Another meaning of this number is that it proves that most people rely on the Internet for information and services.

About 47% of those same potential new patients would like to read up to 5 online reviews first before choosing a dental provider. Now, this shows that people are confident in what other people who have been through something similar have to say. It requires more personalized content that targets these potential customers to get them through the sales funnel.

To use this content to build trust between your business and potential customers, you can:

• Target names, emails, phone numbers that are in your database.
• The next step is to provide prospects with access to exclusive or in-depth content to get more information.
• Add value to the visitor experience by making sure any issues or weaknesses of these potential customers are addressed.

Content is therefore king. Always keep in mind that this is one of the most powerful dental marketing strategies you can use.

5. Better branding and value

With all the information from the research you’ve done in your hands, it’s time to build your brand. You have to take inspiration from it to find a better branding image than the one you started with.

Better branding means that your brand is able to meet a need that no one else can. This gives you a small, however slight, advantage over your competition. And all of this also leads to better overall value.

Better branding also means that people recognize your logo and business and associate it with that value. The value proposition is pushed to a high level and that’s what you want to see. For example, suppose you have affordable packages for families. The value proposition is to include family discounts and more. The discounts and affordable prices aren’t the only things that can be considered a value proposition, however.

Superior quality procedures using the latest dental technology can also be included. Ultimately, the enhanced brand and value is more than a welcome addition to your dental marketing strategies.

6. Keywords are essential

Choosing the right keywords is important, even for your dental marketing strategies.

What are the keywords you ask?

Keywords are words that people search for in Google, and your practice may pay to rank them (with SEA) or rank them organically for them (with SEO). When we say “ranking” we mean appearing in the top list of results when someone searches for that keyword on Google. Remember when we said that over 50% of potential dental patients go online if they want to find a new dental service provider?

This is where it becomes important again. You want to make sure that your website is in the top Google results when people search for “dentist near me” and so on.

7. Social media marketing for dentists

Social media has become such a powerful marketing tool for all industries these days, including dentists!

Over 40% of people say they rely on the information they find on social media before making a decision about their dentist. The same goes for 22% of parents when it comes to finding a dentist for their child!

This tells us that you really want to include social media in your dental marketing strategies. Some things to consider for your social media marketing plan:

• Patients expect consistent messaging and meaningful cooperation across all your marketing platforms, including social media.
• Your social media content needs to empower the reader to keep them engaged and following you.
• Facebook continues its run as the world’s leading social media network. It has over 2 billion people using it every month, so you need to make sure your practice has a well-established Facebook business page!

Social media should help portray your practice in a professional yet enjoyable light that helps push the potential client towards closed clients.
Examining any of these dental marketing strategies shows that there are many tools you can use to be successful. Use one or all of these dental marketing strategies correctly and you will have as many reasons as your patients to flash those pearly whites more often !!
