Digital Marketing: Future is PR

As with any sustained marketing effort, it takes hard work, collaboration, and regular review to realize a successful PR campaign. The story to get success via Search Engine Optimization (SEO) has transformed with the wake of recent updates from Google. Although SEO is here to stay, its evolution will lean toward the more traditional practice of public relations (PR) in the coming years. Google wants its algorithms to behave more like a human when displaying search results. Accordingly, the general consensus among the experts is that more weight is being placed on factors such as inbound links and Google +1s. The way that personalized results are being rolled out to more and more users are further proofs of that theory. Webmasters can improve the rank of their sites by creating high-quality sites that users will want to use and share. And that's exactly where PR excels. Once you have the technical elements down, the focus switches to consistently producing valuable, shareable content that appeals to your key audiences—a task that traditional PR agencies have reams of experience in.
