Great post. Some of the larger firms have had so much success with the way they've always done business that they really don't need to change. Their best strategic move is to continue business as usual and that is a great opportunity for smaller firms.

We've recently been getting calls from the larger firms because they can accomplish so much more by taking advantage of our skills and talent without having to create a new division. Everyone wins.

Small business
4) Small Business owners are largely forgotten. Thats why I only focus on them. I have experience several members of my family file bankruptcy due to small business failures. I also I suffered through 2 destroyed businesses due to failure however, in my failings I have learned some of the secrets to success. (Who can say they know it all?)
What I like about small business owners is that they are not afraid to take huge risks and lay it all on the line. But, I agree they do need a lot of help with their marketing. I think having them go the social media and email route is not only the least expensive but its also the most effective. Thanks for the stats!

Small business

1) Often we forget the little guy, the SMB, in our discussions of the comings and goings of the Internet marketing industry. Sure there are times like this when a report surfaces talking about their issues and concerns but, for the most part, we like to talk about big brands and how they do the Internet marketing thing well or not so well……..

That's so true! Often it's the case that SEO and creativity are looked as two opposing forces. However, your emphasis on blog authorship demonstrates that there are these creative approaches to boosting SEO that provide an advantage for small agencies.

Small business

2) The Center for Media Research has released a study by Vertical Response that shows just where many of these ‘Main Street’ players are going with their online dollars. The big winners: e-mail and social media. With only 3.8% of small business folks NOT planning on using e-mail marketing and with social media carrying the perception of being free (which they so rudely discover it is far from free) this should make some in the banner and search crowd a little wary……….

Interesting ideas here; however, in my experience teaching online marketing to small business owners, they simply don't have the time, people, knowledge or resources to commit to SEO and/or other demonstrated and successful techniques used by big box retailers. Sure, they can be nimble, but it's more likely that innovation will be offline rather than on.

This is a great post and very true, as a multiple small business owner I feel one of the biggest advantages that we have is the ability to act much faster then our out of state larger “franchise” or corporations. I have actually had larger company owners tell me that they can't touch what we do in targeting search.

One of the most advantageous aspects of social media marketing is: it makes it easier for the businesses to establish a direct contact with their customers. Because it is cheaper, the small businesses with limited advertising budget can gain an exposure as big as their stronger rivals. Social media optimization helps in brand building in a way that no other internet marketing techniques can. It proves to be more effective than other online marketing methods simply because it works within the periphery of a closeer group and can penetrates at a personal level. As a result, it becomes easier for it to evoke trust and reliability for a brand.

I loved your article and found it extremely interesting!!!!As a matter of fact, I work at a new SEO Company and I agree with your ideas and your tips are quite useful!!! Although, rumors have it that the excess of blogs in the web make it more difficult for companies to promote themselves since readers are more reluctant to dedicating much time to a blog that they fancy extremely similar to other 20. But I disagree with that...

There are some really interesting points mentioned. It seems small businesses definitely have more flexibility, as they can try things out that larger companies would not.

“Two Biggest Advantages of Small Businesses SEO” I enjoyed reading this post. It really put a new spin the SEO topic. I think creativity and originality both should be exercised more in marketing overall by large and small companies. Some of the companies that do utilize social media for marketing have done a great job with their presence in places like twitter and facebook. I find the effort they put into the sites and actually maintaining the site's communication with their consumers/clients, etc. very favorable because it makes me more likely to stay as a customer.

Small businesses would appear to have more flexibility to create targeted landing pages. I'd also suspect smaller companies have room for testing various elements of their sites as well as various techniques for blogging.

These ideas are nothing large businesses can't take advantage of. Large businesses just seem to have more artificial barriers.

But as the large companies work to break barriers, small businesses have a golden opportunity.

Another advantage is the ability to connect with bloggers in your niche. Actively reach out to them with valuable offers and form relationships.

Brilliant post. I could some it up by “Don't be afraid to take risks…esp those that others can't; it's the only way to leverage the position you're in.”

Nicely done, sir!
