Search Marketing Trends To Watch In 2014

The world of SEO marketing is constantly changing and evolving.  While it is hard to keep up with every shift out there, being aware the bigger fluctuations can prove helpful when building a stable marketing strategy.  Here are some of the search marketing trends you can expect to see in 2014.

1.  Comprehensive Articles Take Center Stage
In 2014, Google will be making larger efforts to promote more in-depth, comprehensive articles.  The company has started to display a new section on its first page of search results to promote these longer content writings.  This new style of article writing is typically 2,000 to 5,000 words in length and often covers broad topics.

2.  Expanding Search Providers
Expect to see others jump in the searching business next year.  Facebook recently launched Knowledge Graph, a mini version of the current Google.  Twitter has also eluded that it will soon be providing search services as well.  While we can expect for Google to remain supreme for years to come, expect to see a slight shift in how users navigate through the web.

3.  Evolving SEO Practices
The days of poor quality content and extensive link building are over.  Today’s SEO companies need to focus their attention on organic, focused writings while also building relationships with their client base.   We may see a lot of these firms struggle in the coming year as they try to adjust to this new business platform.

At GMS, we provide a comprehensive solution for all your marketing needs.  Helping to increase your topline, our team can help strategize and implement a plan keeping you in front of the customer.

    Grand Marketing Solutions has been very effective for us. They are the right size firm with the right mix of talents. They spruced up our logo, redesigned our web site, printed new literature, and worked smoothly with our people.
    - Bill
    Before starting Business Image Magazine, I met with dozens of graphic designers/printers and worked with a couple before I met Karl Hofmeier of Grand Marketing Solutions. I heard Karl speak at a networking event and was impressed with his expertise. Since then, Grand Marketing Solutions has become my one stop shop for marketing advice, graphic design, printing, website design and maintenance. The service is second to none and I am happy to refer all my clients and prospects to him.

    We are proud to be partners with GMS. As an entrepreneur and small business owner, I value a relationship with a partner who is cut from the same mold. Grand Marketing Solutions understands what it takes to keep our company competitive in a ever changing market. They ask the right questions and treat our business as it was their own. With Grand Marketing Solutions as our partner we can focus on our core business while they execute on our marketing strategy. We've been with a handful of marketing firms over the years. Some were large, some were small, but none of them have had the impact that Grand Marketing Solutions has.
