By Brianne Slabach

It’s no secret that SEO has changed a lot recently. The days of traditional SEO and a keyword-only approach are dead, but what’s taken its place? If you’re wondering how Mopro is getting you found (or can get you found), then read on. Spoiler alert: Our entire platform is built to make sure you get found and chosen online.



1. We go beyond the website.


Websites are powerful, but they’re just not where consumers make buying decisions. Long gone are the days when we’d go to Google, search, and get a list of the best websites on the first page.



See for yourself! Try searching for a local business in your area. On the first page of Google, you’ll see 33% is Goog...

6 Tips for Creating Compelling Website CTA's
By Brianne Slabach

temp-post-image


Your website’s CTAs are a big deal. After landing on your site, your call-to-action buttons tell visitors what action you want them to take next – whether that’s to Sign Up, Call Now, or do something completely different. Without a clear CTA, visitors to your site won’t know what to do next, and then they’re as good as lost.



There’s good CTAs and there’s bad ones, so we’ve put together some tips to make yours more clickable.



1. Make them buttons.


CTA buttons should look like buttons. Not hyperlinks, not floating text. Now’s not the time to reinvent the wheel. Now’s the time to show people what they’re familiar with. And that&r...

Whether you’re able to spend a lot or just a little, we encourage all of our clients to at least spend some money on Google Ads. Why? Because Google Ads are the only way to guarantee a spot on the coveted first page of Google. Bottom line is, if you want to be the most visible, it’s going to cost you (Google’s no dummy).



The good news is that even a little ad spend can make a difference, and if you think running a campaign is super-duper complicated, think again. As Google partners, we’re able to offer our clients a complete ads management solution that gets you up and running fast – no guesswork required.



Still on the fence? Here are some reasons why Google Ads...

We may not encourage judging books by their cover, but you definitely can judge an email by its subject line. And people do! The average person gets 88 emails per day, so it’s no wonder why lots and lots of marketing emails go unread.

But what makes an email subject good or bad? We’ve put together our top 10 tips. Follow these and get ready for better open rates!



1. Write and test multiple.
