Digital marketing software and services company, Searchmetrics, today announced it is a showcase sponsor of Adobe Summit, the Digital Marketing Conference. This year's event, focused on how digital marketers are becoming strategic leaders, will include demonstrations of a new beta integration of the Searchmetrics Suite and Adobe Experience Manager, Adobe's leading Web experience management solution.
The technology integration is aimed at bringing content together with search marketing insights to drive seamless, more effective, content marketing cycles and increased Return on Investment (ROI).
Relevant content is now critical to ranking highly in search results. Joint customers will benefit from the ability to optimize their content by using search analytics to pinpoint key topics, phrases and structure to include, measure key metrics such as social sharing and site traffic post-publication, then analyze performance to recommend improvements to content, all within the Adobe Experience Manager interface and workflow.
Existing Searchmetrics and Experience Manager customers will be able to access the integration through Adobe Marketing Cloud. It is currently being implemented by selected customers, including Ring Central and Helvetia Insurance Switzerland.
"The Searchmetrics integration with Adobe Experience Manager is one of the reasons why I love being a Searchmetrics customer. The value from these actionable insights will not only help us to measure our success early, but also further develop our content in targeting the right audience - ultimately leading to an ROI we can correlate to our hard work and efforts. The Searchmetrics and Adobe integration is changing the future of content marketing by providing valuable metrics and precise recommendations that no one else can," said Steven Ray Marshall, Director of Web Marketing at Ring Central.
"Creating impactful content is essential to the way we plan our strategies. Our goal is to optimize our search marketing efforts in order to attract more visitors to our site and turn them into loyal and happy customers. Well-known marketing principles apply to content marketing and big data - serving the right content in the right place at the right time, and having the right data for the right decision makers at the right time is more essential today than ever. With this integration, two powerful and trusted data sources are brought together, allowing us to do this," said Ralph Stamm, Search Marketing / Analyst Specialist at Helvetia Insurance Switzerland.
The beta integration will be shown on the Searchmetrics booth (#302) at the Adobe Marketing Summit 2014 - The Digital Marketing Conference, which is being held in Salt Lake City between 24-28 March 2014.
Designed for both agencies and enterprise customers and built on an extensive knowledge of Search Engine Optimization (SEO), the Searchmetrics SuiteTM is an innovative, interactive online marketing platform that offers a holistic consulting approach to helping companies and online agencies develop and execute, intelligent, long term digital marketing strategies.
"Increasingly Google is focusing on the context of search queries, so companies need to work hard and publish responsive, relevant content if they want to achieve high online rankings," said Marcus Tober, CTO and founder of Searchmetrics. "By integrating with Adobe we enable our customers to seamlessly incorporate search insights within the content marketing cycle, optimizing the process and delivering greater traffic to their sites."
The integration development continues the existing relationship between the two companies, with Searchmetrics a past winner of the Adobe Best Technology Partner, EMEA, award.
