Think MobileWeb on the Go
21
Small screens matters
51% of online traffic now comes from mobile phone or tablet Android and iOS (Apple) lead the market
Mobile apps are more important than ever Over 80% of the time Canadians spend online is via an
app rather than a web browser Online video accounts for 50% of mobile traffic
More digital media is streamed on YouTube than the next 24 largest competitors combined
Canadians are the global leaders when it comes to online video consumption – 25 million people monthly
22
Responsive design for small screens
Designing sites for optimal viewing across devices Desktop Tablets Smartphones
Easy reading & navigation with minimal resizing, panning or scrolling
Adapts layout by using fluid, proportion-based grids, flexible images, CSS, media queries
23
First ImpressionsGetting Found
24
The importance of getting found
People don’t want to ‘search’, they want to ‘find’ “What I want, when I am ready, wherever I am, in
just the way I want it”
Search engines = keyword searches Even users who know your url, access via search Rank pages not sites
- Products, events each on own page
Branding and on brand messaging matters
25
Do you make the right First Impression?
26
Created for users … … constructed for search engines
27
Writing your web site for people Authentic voice Start with 8 to 12 important keywords
Balance: interesting read that flows well with consistent keywords Second tier keywords important in body text, because first tier keywords
dominant in structure Make the page easily scan-able
Headers and short paragraphs Editorial use of images, video Minimize on ‘features’ in body text, like colour, bold, underline, italics;
they make reading harder Your content includes text for page urls and tags
What is your page about in 3 to 5 words = Specify the title tag <title> Important keywords on the page (8 to 12 most used words, words used
in headings and body text) = <keyword> tag One sentence summary (10 to 15 words) = <description> tag Describe what is in your supplied images = <image ALT> tag
28
Search engine optimization URL
Use words not acronyms URL page names
Each service / product / experience on its own page Use relevant keywords
Title tags Appears on browser tab Search engine uses them as the header in its search listings
Headers Specify headings and sub heads <h1>, <h2>, <h3> and use most important keywords
Content ‘Featuring’ words through bolding, italics makes them more important to search engine
Image Alt tags Use the “image ALT” text for keyword-rich descriptive text
- Rather than “header” say “Yukon Adventure Travel logo” or “Yukon Chilkoot Hiking Trail” Description meta tag
This is a real summary sentence for a specific page Search engines, and other sites, can use them in results displays
Keywords meta tag When a search engine cannot read your content, they may evaluate your keywords meta tag
29
Pay-per-click ads
Can’t get to top listings on organic search for top keywords
Drive more traffic Experiment as part of
online marketing mix Leverage up on media
coverage, buzz Small budget Nimble and agile
