The Everything-PR Public Relations News Brief – EPR PR Blog
Companies that invest in public relations as part of their promotional efforts get more opportunities to connect with their target audiences in a meaningful way and get potential consumers to convert. Since it’s incredibly important for companies to send out personalized messages to their target audiences, at specific times and on specific platforms, companies can do all that easily through the right public relations efforts. However, those are not the only benefits companies can get when they start investing in public relations.
Search engine optimization and ranking
When companies can invest in public relations, one of the strategies they start investing in is improving their website ranking on search engine results pages. By continuously updating a company’s social media accounts and business website, companies can improve their search engine optimization efforts, which, in turn, starts increasing the ranking of their website on search engine results pages. Most consumers turn to search engines at the beginning or middle stages of the buying journey. A high ranking can help companies generate more organic website traffic, resulting in more consumers, conversions, and revenue. Additionally, by investing in search engine optimization, companies are increasing their credibility and reputation simultaneously, generating more qualified leads.
Image
One of the biggest benefits that companies get from investing in public relations is the fact that they’re able to create a positive image with the public, and then maintain that image which has a big effect on brand reputation. This is mainly because a company’s public image tends to affect its market position, reputation, and credibility. When companies invest in their public image, they’re able to generate a lot more positive attention from the general public and media outlets, which can, in turn, greatly impact a company’s credibility. That’s because many consumers tend to trust third-party endorsements and recommendations much more than marketing and advertising efforts that come directly from the companies themselves, which are often seen as too promotional. However, when a company receives endorsements from others, all of its potential consumers are going to be a lot more trusting of those endorsements, which can directly improve the company’s credibility because someone else is confirming the claims that the company has been making with its promotional efforts.
