More Opportunities in SEO Than PPC?
Conductor recently conducted a report regarding search trends and Fortune 500 companies. As Seth Dotterer of Conductor tells WebProNews, the company did the report to determine where it is that Fortune 500 companies are spending their money. They found that these companies are spending a lot of money on paid search. Interestingly enough, they are not investing in natural search despite the many opportunities there. In the report, Conductor looked at 6.7 million keywords and found that only 2 percent of the companies involved showed a significant percentage of keywords in the top 30 results. In other words, these companies are spending millions of dollars daily on PPC and yet only 2 percent showed up in the top 30 results. The report also found that more than 50 percent of the companies were not showing up at all. In reality, Dotterer says that these keywords would be found if these companies ranked in organic search. In addition, the companies would not have to spend as much for natural search. As people started to get more and more specific about what they were searching for, Fortune 500 tanked even further, adds Dotterer. In the end, natural search has many opportunities that PPC does not. In addition, companies could save a lot of wasted money by investing some of their time on the organic side of search. Are you utilizing the opportunities natural search provides?

Tianjin: Opportunities for UK businesses
This is the first in a series of videos showcasing China’s regional cities and showing the potential business opportunities there for UK companies. Tianjin, around 160 kilometres south-east of Beijing, is China’s 6th largest city and its second largest general port after Shanghai. The 2300 square kilometre ‘Tianjin-Binhai New Area’, a powerhouse of advanced industry and high tech manufacturing, is considered to be one of the country’s key economic hubs. With China’s post-1992 economic liberalisation, Tianjin’s industry has now been largely privatised. The city is a top performer in ICT, bioengineering, energy technology and environment. It has a large refinery and an oilfield and is manufacturing worldclass wind turbine generators. Tianjin also has a well-developed automotive sector. Its industrial strengths are demonstrated by an oil refinery, polymer plants, a large soda ash factory, factories making steel pipes, electronic components, pharmaceuticals and electrical equipment. Tianjin is the country’s key port for foreign trade, especially oil and iron ore imports and coke exports. Tianjin is one of the top regional cities for sales, manufacturing for export and R&D. This, combined with its current outperforming growth rate, makes it one of the most attractive regional cities.
