Is there any difference when using a website marketing manager in Tallin compared to having the staff working on this internally? Should you employ specialists from a website marketing manager in Tallin or can one just as well use someone in the firm to handle website marketing in the firm?
The questions above has a number of aspects that you should think about. Here, I will try to discuss some of the things you should be aware of before deciding whether a website marketing manager can be useful or whether it is better using internal staff in the company at the local branch office in Tallin.
Use of your own employees in Tallin to manage projects outsourced to the website marketing manager
Often, people in the Tallin-office can have broader knowledge of what is going on locally than what you might expect from a website marketing manager far away or what the people at the headquarters of your firm have detailed knowledge about. Although, this does not necessarily mean that it is good use of resources to engage internal human resources locally in relation to the website marketing manager. Below I will highlight some of the things that need to be agreed about before proceeding.
The project you think of setting out to a website marketing manager can be time consuming and difficult to learn, but it can be well worth the time spent and resources used
Putting the work out to a website marketing manager can certainly pay off, but it is still important that there are available resources that can handle this in a proper way on the part of the firm.
If you already have limited resources, the project will almost guaranteed not get enough attention and dedication from in-house staff without adequate resources to handling the website marketing. The website marketing manager knows that these things require a lot of attention and dedication and are knowledge-intensive, so they have dedicated the resources needed to handle the project in a responsible manner.
However, it has always been clear to me that it is you who know your service and your market best, so if you have the resources needed, it is definitely the best thing to do it yourself. This is something that must be carefully considered before making a decision on how to proceed with website marketing.
Good website marketing tools
There are some things you need to be aware of when using a website marketing manager – whether this is handled by local staff in Tallin, or centrally at the headquarter. Below is a handy checklist of things you need to think about, as well as the best tools you can use for either free or commercial tools where free alternatives are not available or significantly inferior to the commercial ones.
Google Alerts
To be on top of things, it is important to know what happens as early as possible. Google Alerts sends you an email every time someone mentions the words and phrases you specify. This can be anything from trademarks that are important to you, people of interest or general words and phrases that are important to your business. You can have alerts for all employees, freelancers you use, your trademarks including websites you run and words and phrases you focus on. All of this gives you a good overview of what is being talked about that matters internally. Google’s notification is free to use and helps you to be early in terms of being on top of what your competitors in Tallin are doing, potential public relations disasters in the form of negative reviews and much else useful.
Ranks.nl
Ranks.nl has a number of professional SEO tools that I can really recommend. One of the tools I use most is Page Analyzer. With this tool, you can check keyword density on each subpage of your domain to optimize for keywords or phrases. If the website marketing manager you are planning to use is at all professional, they probably use the tools available from ranks.nl – or similar tools extensively.
Majestic.com
Majestic SEO is the world’s largest link index. Use this tool to find out everything of interest about links to your own pages and what your competitors locally in Tallin are doing, or what national and international competitors are up to. Links to your website and subpages are crucial to your search engine rankings, so this is important to keep tabs on.
