Digital Marketing: key terms explained
- SEO (search engine optimisation)
- Improving your website and online presence so it appears higher in Google's free results for relevant searches.
- PPC (pay per click)
- Advertising where you pay each time someone clicks your ad, such as Google Ads or Microsoft Ads.
- Conversion rate
- The percentage of visitors who take the action you want, such as filling in a form or calling you.
- Cost per lead (CPL)
- How much you spend on marketing to get one enquiry; a key number for judging any campaign.
- Google Business Profile
- Your free business listing on Google Search and Maps, with reviews, photos, hours and contact details.
- Backlink
- A link from another website to yours; links from trusted, relevant sites help search rankings.

- Showing ads to people who have already visited your website, to bring them back when they are ready to buy.
- Keyword research

Digital Marketing guides: frequently asked questions
- How long does SEO take to show results?
- Most businesses see early movement within two to three months and more meaningful results between four and twelve months, depending on competition and the state of the website.
- Is Google Ads or SEO better for my business?
- Google Ads brings leads quickly while you pay for clicks; SEO takes longer but builds traffic that does not stop when the budget does. Many businesses use ads for quick wins while SEO grows.
- How much should a small business spend on digital marketing?
- Start from how much a new customer is worth and what you can afford to pay per lead. Many small businesses begin with ₹15,000 to ₹50,000 a month across fees and ad spend.
- Which social media platform is best for my business?
- The one your customers use and where you can post consistently. B2B firms often do best on LinkedIn, while retail, food and lifestyle brands usually focus on Instagram and Facebook.
- What is local SEO?
- Local SEO helps you appear when people nearby search for your service, especially in the Google Maps results. It relies on your Google Business Profile, reviews, local pages and consistent contact details.
- How do I know if my marketing is working?
- Track enquiries, sales and cost per lead for each channel. If a channel brings traffic but no enquiries, the problem is usually the offer, the landing page or the follow-up.
