Omnichannel marketing for search algorithm resilience [Guide]

Omnichannel marketing integrates seamless customer experiences across all channels, combining digital and physical touchpoints. It ensures consistent messaging and personalization, fostering stronger engagement and brand loyalty.

Wix has published a new guide ‘Omnichannel marketing for search algorithm resilience.

Veruska Anconitano says, “Market research is more than just data collection; it’s a practice rooted in social science that seeks to understand human behavior, preferences, and needs. Drawing from fields like psychology, sociology, and behavioral economics, market research helps explain why customers make certain choices and how they interact with products and services.

Studies have shown that businesses that prioritize customer-centric strategies outperform those that don’t, with one report by Deloitte indicating that customer-centric companies are 60% more profitable than those that aren’t.

By using qualitative research methods, such as interviews or focus groups, you can gain deep insights into customer motivations and emotional triggers.
  • This is particularly useful for uncovering the underlying reasons why people feel a certain way about a product or service. For example, focus groups often reveal emotional drivers, like the need for belonging or status, which may not be immediately evident from quantitative data alone.”

Content Marketing Institute contributor Dennis Shiao has published an article featuring useful strategies to battle organic search analytics in the AI era.

Shiao says, “What happens when search-related data shows your organization’s content isn’t delivering?

You dig deeper into data.

That’s what Brian Piper does as director of content strategy and assessment at the University of Rochester. At the Marketing Analytics & Data Science Conference, he explained what his team’s done and how it has expanded that SEO work in the era of artificial intelligence.

Seeing organic traffic drop to almost zero

At one point, a new article on the University of Rochester’s NewsCenter, which was promoted in a newsletter and on social media, attracted traffic the first week before plummeting to almost zero.

That traffic boost was good for the university’s business goal — to generate awareness — and the content’s primary KPIs — page views and new visitors. But Brian and his team knew those one-time traffic bumps wouldn’t be enough.”
