"Now that content marketing is in full gear and companies are fighting to stand out from the crowd, a new term, paradigm and road map are needed," said John McDougall president of McDougall Interactive, which hopes to spearhead that change and provide clear marching orders with the launch of the company's new website www.authoritymarketing.com and the seminar. Last year's "Search and Social Seminar" was featured in The New York Times.
"Authority Marketing is the next hot trend in web and content marketing," said McDougall, a thought leader on authority marketing and branding.
"If you care about search engine ranks and successful social media, you need to know about this emerging trend. The days of stuffing keywords in every crevice of your site with magical results are long gone. You need to learn how to position yourself and your brand an expert to gain the respect of Google and your customers at the same time," said McDougall, author of "Web Marketing On All Cylinders."
The seminar is an opportunity to learn Internet marketing strategies from leading experts.
Speakers include Alec Biedrzycki, Channel Marketing Associate at at HubSpot, who will be discussing high quality – Google friendly – guest blogging to build influence and Dan Janal, president of PR LEADS.com, who will show how to use publicity to turn executives into thought leaders.
Another concept to be discussed at the event is a term McDougall calls "Talk Marketing" in which the expertise of a business owner, entrepreneur or team member of an organization is recorded and turned into content, such as podcasts, books and blog posts to create engagement with prospects and customers.
"Creating consistent content from the true voice of an expert and a clear marketing strategy is now easier than ever using these techniques," he said. "Content helps build trust, which leads to sales and repeat business."
