Signals confusion
You wouldn’t bring a dessert menu to someone who just sat down at a restaurant…but you would if that patron said “I just want dessert”
Same holds true with understanding what the consumer is looking for and what you can do to help the consumer.

There are two large studies on organic vs. Paid clicks. Which one is correct? The eConsultancy data includes all web searches and that translates to a lot of searches most businesses will not be interested in (i.e. What is the capital of South Dakota, for example, is a search query with no purchase intent. In contrast, the Wordstream study focused only on searches with high commercial intent. Therefore, this study is more relevant and can help marketers determine where best to allocate their resources. Not surprisingly, Paid Search represents the lion’s share of click distribution and has made Google the 3rd largest company in the U.S. based on market capitalization. (((Joke about Apple))))
On the Paid Search Side, make sure to protect your brand name from competitors and lead generation firms. This is especially important for the Blue Cross plans as the blue cross name generates significant search volumes and is easy pickings for lead generation firms. Conversion rates for brand name search queries are up to 10x higher than general health insurance queries. If you find competitors are using your trademark in their ad copy, send a cease and desist letter to their Legal team. If that doesn’t work, file a trademark violation with Google Adwords. Protecting your brand name is priority number one in the Paid Search space.
Internal linking back to the hub page is the most important element of this strategy. This helps Google categorize your content and establish a centralized page for ranking purposes. Without the internal link structure, each page will cannibalize the other from a ranking perspective. A hub page will generate the most inbound links and send a strong signal to Google that this page is important.
Hummingbird---According to Google, this new approach can answer questions and give you comparison data on Google.com. You don’t have to click away from search results, hoping web pages will have answers…the data will be right there for you.
Create high quality content (videos, infographics, educational blog posts, etc.) that people will want to share through social networks.
A micro conversion is important, but it does not immediately contribute to your bottom line. t’s usually an indicator that a user is moving towards a macro conversion.
Implement and test calls to action ion during key points in a site visit, you are able to increase the rates at which visitors start the shopping process, and the rates at which shoppers complete the process and become customers.
On all channels and all devices. Remarketing with Google connects you with shoppers across search, display, and video on all devices from tablets to desktops to smart phones -- so advertisers can reach exactly the right prospects anytime and anywhere.
Adding remarketing list for search ads (RLSA) to your remarketing combines two of the greatest intent signals available to marketers anywhere: search keywords and site visitors. The results can be very powerful.
