How to Improve Your SEO with Inbound Marketing

April 3, 2020

Reading Time: 3 minutes

text overlaid a staircase that says "how to improve your SEO with inbound marketing"

It’s common to fall into the trap of thinking of your website and your marketing as two separate entities – but they’re actually much more closely linked. Your marketing fuels your website, keeping it a flywheel perpetually in motion. 

Likewise, inbound marketing strengthens your website at the same time that it finds you new leads. You can actually improve your search engine optimization (SEO) through inbound marketing, with no more work than any other SEO strategy.

What is Inbound Marketing?

Inbound marketing is customer-oriented and customer-driven. Simply put, inbound marketing starts with valuable content that your target audience wants, instead of just advertising your services. In a traditional marketing model, you would simply “spread the word” about your business through print or online ads. With inbound marketing, you instead focus on providing valuable information or items your customers can use. For example, you might start with an ebook, a quiz, a checklist or a blog that your ideal customer might find useful. You dangle that content offer to get nibbles in exchange for a form fill or phone call, and then follow-up with more direct advertising. 

Bringing SEO to Inbound With Keywords 

“Florists near me” is example of a keyword, something you would type into Google (or, increasingly, speak into your phone) to find what it is you’re looking for. As a business on the other side of the equation you have to tap into that consumer mindset to find the right keywords to use both on your website and in your inbound marketing campaigns.

Start with Research

Keyword research is a mix of database research, anthropological study, statistics and psychology. It’s matching what you know about your business with what people search for online. Keyword research is an involved but important process in your marketing strategy – check out our full guide to keyword research to get started. 

Using Keywords with Inbound Marketing

What keywords you find when researching your SEO strategy should pave the way to your inbound marketing campaigns. For example, let’s say you find out during your research that your keywords are:

  • Florists near me
  • Flower arrangement ideas
  • Wedding flowers

These keywords should be the topics for your inbound marketing campaigns. You could create content pieces for each of these keywords:

  • The A-Z Guide to Flowers in Minneapolis
  • 2o Best Flower Arrangement Ideas for 2019
  • Wedding Flower Inspirations

Using the same keywords on both your website and inbound marketing will not only boost your SEO, but also make it easier to stick to your goals and measure performance. Inbound Marketing and SEO are a match made in heaven.
