The World Wide Web has a voice now. That voice is your customer “tweeting” on Twitter, posting reviews on Yelp, reading, participating in and sharing blogs, networking through social communities, and getting advice from trusted resources such as other clients and friends. The search for anything starts on the web.

Now more than ever — your business needs to be optimized. All things digital—from websites to press releases, news coverage to social profiles, blogs, podcasts, you name it—must be optimized. And, they need to be succinct to your brand message and intertwined for cohesiveness. That way, when your potential customers or current clients use any of the various and growing digital channels to find what they’re seeking, they will be more likely to find you and not your competitors. Also, don’t forget they’re also finding your social channels in search engine results. When optimization is done right, you can pretty much ensure they’ll have a cohesive and strategic brand experience.

Users are now savvy, smart, and well-versed in the way the World Wide Web works. More than ever, they are connected and are an extension of your sales force — thanks to social media. For example, Addthis.com is a pioneering social sharing tool used by over 500 Million people monthly. Holy Toledo–that’s 30 BILLION monthly uses—even more than Bing. That represents heavy digital dissemination.
