Incorporation of Company Branding and SEO-The Panagora Blog
Incorporation of Company Branding and
SEO
SEO is not an exact science. This becomes apparent when trying
to incorporate both SEO and branding into a strategy. This
process is finicky to say the least. On the one side, SEO deals with the
placement of keywords and phrases. On the other side, branding deals with
company loyalty and culture. Incorporating both sides dilutes the prominence of
both. But eliminating one or the other may not meet all strategic and marketing
goals.
Once again, it should be emphasized that SEO is a series of
guidelines rather than an exact science. Having said that, the following
recommendation can be used to satisfy both sides of the equation. In
general, keywords and phrases (i.e. SEO) should remain the focus of any
early-stage company, while the incorporation of company branding should appear
later in the evolution. This is simply a general statement and should
not be taken word for word.
The reasoning is pretty straightforward. At first, no-one knows
the name of your company, but perhaps they are searching for your products or
services. In other words, you want to target keywords and phrases that focus
around your offering rather than your company. As you build loyalty and
credibility, branding becomes more important. It’s at this point that you may
want to incorporate corporate messaging to strengthen the relationship with
customers and instill trust in your brand.
One final thought about branding: if a searcher types in the
name of your company, they are likely to find your website anyways. This is due
mostly to anchor text and back-links. Therefore, optimizing for the company
name is rather insignificant in most cases.
