— Tip #1. Be First and Be THE First

In the age of online distribution its not who makes the better product, but who makes it first. It is a race and if you are not quick enough, you will get placed in the sidelines or even worst, fade into obscurity. When creating a campaign within the online advertising world try to mark the key words as fast as you can. The keywords used in your campaign will be filtered out in the world of search engines and will mark you down as the source. For example, it is January right now which means soon words like “Valentines Day” or “Groundhogs Day” will be in hot pursuit. When creating online content, dub the initial keywords that drives your campaigns first, search engines mark this down and you will be placed amongst the top searches. This will help your brand gain an ownership of the content above all others that may come afterwards.
