However, I think publicity goes further than just the media when it comes to startups.<\/p>\n<p><strong>You see, startups live and die by their visibility. <\/strong><\/p>\n<p>But also, if potential customers don\u2019t see or hear about your business pretty much everywhere they go online, chances are they\u2019re not going to trust you.<\/p>\n<p><strong>And without that trust, there\u2019s little chance they\u2019ll sign up. <\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Without those user acquisitions, though\u2026 you\u2019re going to have a hard time convincing investors to your idea.<\/p>\n<p><strong>So, in short, you will find it hard to grow your startup without publicity and online visibility.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Luckily, you can generate publicity and interest about your startup by focusing on marketing channels that drive visibility and <a href=\"https:\/\/prowly.com\/magazine\/write-effective-press-release-journalists-answer\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">acquisitions<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>And here are the five most effective of them.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"seo\">SEO<\/h2>\n<p>With <a href=\"http:\/\/www.pardot.com\/buyer-journey\/\">72% of your potential users starting their buyer journey in Google<\/a>, your startup simply cannot afford NOT to do SEO.<\/p>\n<p>SEO gives you the opportunity to position your business right in front of the very people who are currently experiencing the problem it helps to overcome.<\/p>\n<p>Out of many SEO strategies you could use, these three are particularly useful for generating publicity:<\/p>\n<p><strong>Researching your competitors\u2019 strategies.<\/strong> After all, if something has worked for your competitor, it will most likely work for you too.<\/p>\n<p>For a startup, conducting an <a href=\"https:\/\/foundr.com\/ready-for-seo\/\">SEO competitive research <\/a>means:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Discovering what keywords your competitors focus on in their strategy,<\/li>\n<li>Learning how they structure their content, and<\/li>\n<li>Analyzing their backlink profile to learn which links you could easily replicate.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Tool to use: any organic research tool that allows you to discover and then reverse engineer many of your online competitors\u2019 strategies. <a href=\"https:\/\/prowly.com\/magazine\/competitor-analysis-tools\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Use this list of the best competitor analysis tools<\/a> to find the right one for you.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_5498\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-5498\" style=\"width: 881px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"http:\/\/prowly.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/Organic-search-competitors-for-airbnb.com-according-to-SEMrush-USA-Database-1.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-5498 size-full\" src=\"http:\/\/prowly.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/Organic-search-competitors-for-airbnb.com-according-to-SEMrush-USA-Database-1.png\" alt=\"Organic search competitors for airbnb.com according to SEMrush USA Database \" width=\"881\" height=\"497\" srcset=\"https:\/\/prowly.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/Organic-search-competitors-for-airbnb.com-according-to-SEMrush-USA-Database-1.png 881w, https:\/\/prowly.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/Organic-search-competitors-for-airbnb.com-according-to-SEMrush-USA-Database-1-300x169.png 300w, https:\/\/prowly.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/Organic-search-competitors-for-airbnb.com-according-to-SEMrush-USA-Database-1-768x433.png 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 881px) 100vw, 881px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-5498\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Organic search competitors for airbnb.com according to SEMrush USA Database<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p><strong>Finding the most relevant keywords<\/strong>. Apart from assessing your competitors\u2019 keywords, you should also research what other phrases your audiences might be using to find the solutions you offer.

And so, you should focus on building as many strong backlinks as possible to ensure your startup ranks high for relevant and authoritative searches. The easiest way to find the right websites and the journalists or bloggers to connect with is to check the domains referring to your competitors\u2019 sites with one of the SEO tool available on the market: <a href=\"https:\/\/majestic.com\/\">Majestic<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.semrush.com\/features\/backlinks\/\">SEMrush<\/a>, or other tools available on the market.<\/p>\n<p>If you want to get links from an authoritative website, you should know what content interests them. You can look through their recent articles and check whether or not your company\u2019s topic is related to their content and if it might attract them. For that, you can use <a href=\"http:\/\/buzzsumo.com\/\">Buzzsumo<\/a>, or go even deeper and find content gaps for a more original angle with <a href=\"https:\/\/www.semrush.com\/topic-research\/\">Topic Research<\/a>.<\/p>\n<h3>But does SEO really work?<\/h3>\n<p>Absolutely.

After all, you have to pay for pretty much all marketing activities.<\/p>\n<p>But, in this context, it simply relates to any online advertising strategy.<\/p>\n<p>Paid marketing typically includes:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Buying ads on social media sites like Facebook or Twitter<\/strong>. You can use these ads to promote your product or position your content in front of the target audience.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Running Google AdWords campaigns<\/strong> with the aim of attracting potential users to the site.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Placing display ads and banner ads on websites your audience visits<\/strong>, again, you should do it to strengthen <a href=\"https:\/\/prowly.com\/magazine\/brand-awareness-strategies\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">brand awareness<\/a> and position your startup as the provider of solutions to the problems your audiences may have.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Promoting your brand through sponsored posts<\/strong>.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Running paid remarketing<\/strong> campaigns to re-engage people who have visited your site before.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Engaging in affiliate marketing <\/strong>and enlist other people to help you promote and grow your startup.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2 id=\"social-media\">Social Media<\/h2>\n<p>I know, it sounds clich\u00e9, but it\u2019s so true. Social media and startups are a match made in heaven.<\/p>\n<p>Every startup\u2019s goal is to build an audience. These people don\u2019t necessarily have to be users yet. But the earlier they\u2019ll engage with the brand, the greater the chance they\u2019ll eventually convert.<\/p>\n<p><strong>And social media gives you the opportunity to achieve exactly that, build and engage an audience. <\/strong><\/p>\n<p>But before you jump and start creating accounts on all social media, here are a couple of things you should consider:<\/p>\n<p><strong>Focus only on the most relevant social networking sites<\/strong>. Try as you might, you won\u2019t be able to manage your presence on all social media networks. There\u2019s just too many of them. Plus, the chances are that your potential users are active only on some of them.<\/p>\n<p>Check which social channels bring the most traffic to your competitors and focus your efforts only on those sites used by your potential audience. And don\u2019t be afraid to ignore big networking sites if your audience isn\u2019t that active on them.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_5497\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-5497\" style=\"width: 817px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"http:\/\/prowly.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/Social-media-traffic-1.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-5497 size-full\" src=\"http:\/\/prowly.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/Social-media-traffic-1.png\" alt=\"Social media Traffic sources for airbnb.com according to SEMrush Traffic Analytics\" width=\"817\" height=\"556\" srcset=\"https:\/\/prowly.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/Social-media-traffic-1.png 817w, https:\/\/prowly.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/Social-media-traffic-1-300x204.png 300w, https:\/\/prowly.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/Social-media-traffic-1-768x523.png 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 817px) 100vw, 817px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-5497\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Social media Traffic sources for airbnb.com according to SEMrush Traffic Analytics<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Hint: use the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.semrush.com\/features\/social-media-tool\/\">Social Media Tool<\/a> to analyze how your competitors use social media and quickly discover low-hanging fruit strategies that you could implement into your business right away.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Respond to brand mentions<\/strong>.

And I understand their reasoning. The strategy can feel a bit dated, particularly in the times of the internet, blogging, and social media<\/p>\n<p><strong>But there are many opportunities for a startup to use PR to gain publicity too. <\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Product reviews are a great example. With so many customers making a buying decision based on reviews, it\u2019s crucial for startups to showcase positive feedback from users.<\/p>\n<p>With equally many users following advice from influencers, it has become more important than ever to engage the movers and shakers of your industry in your promotion.<\/p>\n<p>And with media still having the power to send good referral traffic back to the site, it\u2019s a channel not to ignore.<\/p>\n<p>So at the most minimum, consider the following PR strategies:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Find industry bloggers who would be interested in reviewing your product.<\/li>\n<li>Build <a href=\"https:\/\/foundr.com\/influencer-marketing-101-how-to-build-strong-relationships-with-leading-influencers\/\">relationships with influencers<\/a>.<\/li>\n<li>Guest post on top industry sites. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.groovehq.com\/blog\/guest-blogging\">Groove has reached over 1 million people<\/a> this way.

Content is the most powerful marketing strategy today.<\/p>\n<p>And, it goes beyond just publishing stuff on a blog. Content forms a part of almost every other strategy I mentioned it in this article.<\/p>\n<p>You promote it with paid marketing, use it to rank pages in Google, and of course, there\u2019s no PR without content.<\/p>\n<p>But there are other reasons to engage in content marketing for publicity:<\/p>\n<p><strong>Content allows you to create your story<\/strong>. And this, in turn, will help your startup stand out on the market and connect with your audience on a deeper level. Check out the possibilities offered by <a href=\"http:\/\/prow.ly\/2EY7vow\">Prowly<\/a>, a content and PR platform, and make sure you also give their Brand Journals a go.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Blogging will help you attract people at various stages of the buying cycle<\/strong>. Again, a hugely important thing if you consider that, on average, users will need a couple of interactions with your startup to sign up.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Publishing power content<\/strong>. Long-form guides and resources will allow you to propel your visibility.<\/p>\n<p><strong>And by creating lead magnets,<\/strong> you will be able to convert many visitors into leads to further nurture them into users.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"conclusion\">Conclusion<\/h2>\n<p>As a startup, you need publicity and visibility to attract users and grow the business.<\/p>\n<p>But you also need it to position your startup on the radars of potential investors and help secure their backing.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>No startup can acquire users and grow without publicity.
