There are 4 ways, or “pillars”, to gain business value via digital marketing. Which of the following is NOT one of the 4 pillars of business value?
-
Sales
-
Efficiency
-
Audience
-
Innovation
-
Retention
Correct Answer
A. AudienceExplanation
It’s audience, which isn’t as much a business value as it is a consideration when thinking about certain strategies or tactics. i.e. “Who is my audience for this initiative? Existing cutomers? New customers? Employees?” It’s important to think of “value” as more than just sales. Business value can be gained through increasing efficiency, inspiring a team through innovation, and, importantly, retaining the customers you already have.

All digital strategies and tactics should aim for, and be measured by, their impact on sales.
-
True
-
False
Correct Answer
A. FalseExplanation
This is false. Sales impact is not the only business value to be gained from digital marketing. There are four distinct pillars of business value: Sales, Efficiency, Innovation, and Retention.

-
Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities, Threats
-
Search, Website, Outbound, Targeting
-
Search, Website, Opportunities, Threats
-
Strategy, Website, Objectives, Tactics

As explained in the Digital Strategy and Planning lesson, a smart alternative to focusing on keywords in search marketing is focusing on ____________.
-
Key Phrases
-
Long tail keywords
-
Search behavior
-
Keyword Clusters
Correct Answer
A. Search behaviorExplanation
Rather than focusing on keywords, an alternative is to focus on search behaviors. For example, gardening business focuses on those searching for outdoor furniture in general, and keywords of “Garden sheds” and “patio furniture” are developed from that behavior.

-
Re-targeting
-
A/B and multivariate testing
-
SEO
-
All of the Above

A. A/B and multivariate testingExplanation
It’s A/B and multivariate testing that can improve your conversion rates for your website. Re-targeting is more for optimizing email conversions and SEO is more for optimizing search conversions. But to optimize your website, test different versions of your landing pages, such as images, copy, and offer. (Module 2, Digital Strategy, Chaffey)Rate this question:

The most people do which of the following?
-
Research online, Purchase online
-
Research offline, Purchase online
-
Research offline, Purchase offline
-
Research online, Purchase offline
Correct Answer
A. Research online, Purchase offlineExplanation
It’s close, but with 37% of consumers researching online and purchasing offline, it’s crucial to consider multi-channel integration. Further, it’s important to understand that the full value of online marketing is not reflected solely by online purchases. Online marketing has a significant impact on offline purchases so some portion of offline purchases should be attributed to the online marketing endeavors.

Engagement, when customers become advocates
-
Earned, when you’ve earned the customers business
-
Efficiency, when you’ve achieved the highest conversion from the Reach stage to the Conversion stage
-
Endurance, when your customers make repeat purchases and become lifetime customers

Which of the following lenses of measurement is an analytics approach focused on the customer?
-
Holistic Measurement
-
Full Credit measurement
-
Active Measurement
-
All of the Above
Correct Answer
A. Holistic MeasurementExplanation
It’s holistic measurement that looks at measurement through the many different touch points that encompass online marketing. What’s at the center of all the different ways that businesses market? The customer. So measuring through that lens helps bring all the different marketing silos together into one holistic measurement. (Module 3, Analytics, Cutroni)Rate this question:

Session-based measurement, which views each interaction that a customer has with your various marketing endeavors as separate events, is the ideal that Google is moving towards.
-
True
-
False
Correct Answer
A. FalseExplanation
False. Session-based measurement would view one customer as three different people if that customer visited the website from a smartphone, a tablet and a laptop computer. That’s not what Google is after. It’s more accurate, and the ideal that Google is moving towards, to view those three activities as all originating from the same single customer in a user-centric view.

Customer interviews are a great way to learn about who your customer is. Why is it advised that you record these interviews?
-
To maintain an archive for later viewing
-
So that you do not have to take notes during the interview
-
To pay attention to the specific language that they use
-
All of the Above
Correct Answer
A. To pay attention to the specific language that they useExplanation
It’s good to record those interviews so you can pay attention the specific language your customers use. This can help inform your SEO efforts, your marketing materials, and much more. It’s not how you describe your product or service that matters; it’s how your customers do so that is important to understand and market towards. (Module 4, Personas, Albee)Rate this question:

A persona is best described as
-
A list of attributes
-
A demographic profile of an actual, typical customer
-
A look inside the head of a representative customer
-
All of the Above
Correct Answer
A. A look inside the head of a representative customerExplanation
A persona allows you to get inside the head of a representative customer. It’s NOT just a list of attributes and it’s not a profile of an actual customer. It’s a representation designed to show what motivates your target customer to make purchase decisions. (Module 4, Personas, Albee)Rate this question:

It’s important that you collect as much information from your leads as possible up front, on first contact.
-
True
-
False

A. FalseExplanation
In fact, it’s important that you do NOT ask for as much information as possible up front. Collect info little by little, as further contacts are made. This is called progressive profiling.

Your landing page will be most effective if it most resembles ____________.
-
Your website’s home page
-
A blank page
-
The ad that is the referring ad to that landing page
-
The Google home page
Correct Answer
A. The ad that is the referring ad to that landing pageExplanation
Your landing page should resemble, both visually and verbally, the ad that refers people to that particular landing page. This helps fulfill the promise of the click, giving the user exactly what was hoped for. Your landing page should absolutely not resemble your home page, with all the navigation elements usually associated with a home page. The goal of the landing page is for the user to take a particular action, not to browse other elements of your website. (Module 5, Chemistry of the Landing Page, Brian Massey)Rate this question:

The rule of thumb for the amount of copy on a landing page is ______________.
-
As little copy as possible
-
The least amount of copy necessary to convince users to take a particular action
-
A wide variety of offers and possible actions to take
-
As much copy that fits in a certain designated area
Correct Answer
A. The least amount of copy necessary to convince users to take a particular actionExplanation
The rule of thumb for copy on a landing page is “the least amount necessary”, the key word being “necessary”. You may need just a little, and you may need a lot of copy to convince a user to take a particular action. But do not add extraneous copy that doesn’t address the action you want the user to take.

Which of the following qualifies as an important item to include on your landing page?
-
Ratings and Reviews
-
Social Media Icons
-
Site Navigation
-
Company Mission Statement
Correct Answer
A. Ratings and ReviewsExplanation
Ratings and reviews can build trust, so they qualify. Social media icons provide distraction, which can lead to abandonment. A site navigation menu does the same thing. Finally, while it may be true that a company mission statement build trust, but generally, if you’re talking about yourself on a landing page, it won’t lead to conversions.

It is possible to rewrite or “flatten” a url for SEO purposes.
-
True
-
False
Correct Answer
A. TrueExplanation
Though many will tell you that it cannot be done, it is actually possible to rewrite a url for SEO purposes. In general, the shorter the url the better. Additionally, it’s possible to include key search terms in the url itself. In general, when a technical person says something is impossible, it may just be the case that they’ve never done it or haven’t heard of it. Always question whether anything is truly impossible before dismissing it. (Module 6, Understanding SEO beyond the technical jargon, Boggs.)Rate this question:

In SEO, reciprocal linking, trading links with another website in order to boost your search engine results, is a recommended best practice.
-
True
-
False
Correct Answer
A. FalseExplanation
While reciprocal linking used to be common, it is no longer seen as a best practice due to its transparency as an artificial tactic to raise SEO. While some links can and will occur naturally, it is not in your best interest to simply trade links with an unrelated site.

The term “code weight” is most directly referenced when assessing ___________ for SEO purposes.
-
Page tagging
-
How fast a page loads
-
URL structures
-
The density of text on a page
Correct Answer
A. How fast a page loadsExplanation
Code weight does not refer to the density or number of lines of a text on a page. Rather, it refers to the number of lines of back-end code associated with a page. The more lines, or the “heavier” the code is, the longer the page takes to load. Google downgrades search results with longer load times. So if someone says, “We’ve got to reduce the code weight,” you now know what that person is talking about. (Module 6, Understanding SEO beyond the technical jargon, Boggs.)Rate this question:

The most important piece of content on any page, for SEO purposes, is the ____________.
-
Meta-information
-
Page Title
-
Alt Attribute
Correct Answer
A. Page TitleExplanation
You may hear it spoken of as the “Meta title”, but it’s more properly called the page title and it’s the most important piece of content on any page. It’s what comes up in the blue browser bar on any page and often the content that appears as the search engine result. Simply changing the page title can move your search result from the second page to the first page of Google results, so it’s important to consider the strength of your page titles and leverage keywords where appropriate.

-
All of the above
Correct Answer
A. Act immediatelyExplanation
Email is the best for getting a prospect to act immediately, whether it’s making a purchase, beginning an inquiry, or something else.

-
Specific
-
Measurable
-
Realistic
-
Timely
Correct Answer
A. MeasurableExplanation
The most important goal of email marketing is that it’s measurable.

-
Great content
-

By far, the most email marketers use email for:
-
Retention of existing customers and prospects
-
Acquisition of new customers and prospects
Correct Answer
A. Retention of existing customers and prospectsExplanation
Because inboxes are more crowded than ever, it’s existing customers who are much more eager to respond to email marketing than are new prospects. Don’t make the mistake of using email marketing primarily to attract new customers. (Module 7, Email Marketing Strategy Development, Talavera)Rate this question:

Which sort of triggered email is a “must” for online merchants?
-
“Thank-you for purchase” email
-
“Abandoned Cart” email
-
“Happy Birthday” email
-
All of the Above are “musts”
Correct Answer
A. “Abandoned Cart” emailExplanation
If a customer adds a purchase to a “cart”, but then does not follow through with an actual purchase, it is imperative that you send an email. The person was so close to buying that you need to follow up. In fact, you can expect to recoup up to 15% of lost revenue with this simple triggered email tactic.

Web Analytics come from two places, broadly speaking: Log Files from your server and Javascript collectors and cookies. Which of those two would be the one that captures information regarding a YouTube video embedded in your web site?
-
Web Server Log Files
-
Javascript collectors and cookies
Correct Answer
A. Javascript collectors and cookiesExplanation
Because the video doesn’t “live” on your website, but rather on the YouTube website, any information you want to know about it will have to be collected via Javascript collectors and cookies. Your web server log files can only tell you about items that “live” on your web server. The bottom line is that the two ways of collecting data are very different. (Module 8, Foundational Analytics, Craver)Rate this question:
-

Data collected via web server and data collected via javascript will almost never match. So how should you, as a marketer, handle this?
-
Choose one over the other, depending on your business and your website.
-
Note these discrepancies in reports, and use weighted metrics to assign a higher value to certain metrics.
-
Don’t think of the numbers generated as true or false, but as measurements over time. So while the data may be different, the trends can agree.
-
Reconfigure what you measure until the data collected does match
Correct Answer
A. Don’t think of the numbers generated as true or false, but as measurements over time. So while the data may be different, the trends can agree.Explanation
Web analytics data won’t be exact, so should not be understood the same as financial data. Web analytics data should therefore be used as trending data, measurements over time, rather than as exact data. (Module 8, Foundational Analytics, Craver)Rate this question:

-
All of the Above

Which of the following is more important in social media marketing?
-
The number of fans/followers you have
-
The degree of influence that your fans/followers have
Correct Answer
A. The degree of influence that your fans/followers haveExplanation
It’s a mistake to simply focus on the number of fans or followers you have. If they don’t share, or they don’t influence anybody, those numbers may look good on the report but aren’t actually accomplishing any business goals. The influence of your fans/followers is much more important, as they have the ability to reach and persuade many more eyeballs. (Module 10, Intro to Social, Bhargava)Rate this question:

-
Continue updating. Once launched, a social media initiative is forever.
-
Just stop updating it. Eventually, activity will slow and then cease.
-
Archive it. Explain that you will no longer be updating it and provide a link to something you are still actively working with.
-
Erase it. Remove all evidence of its existence, as you don’t want a content graveyard out there for anyone to find.
Correct Answer
A. Archive it. Explain that you will no longer be updating it and provide a link to something you are still actively working with.Explanation
Archive it. No social media initiative is forever, but it becomes a graveyard if you leave it active but never pay any attention to it. So leaving one final message, with a link to something you are still actively working with, will allow anyone who was actively involved with it to continue to be actively involved with you.

The difference between “push” marketing and “pull” marketing is:
-
Prospects are pre-qualified in “pull” marketing, whereas in “push” marketing they are not.
-
“Pull” marketing is web marketing such as SEO and PPC, whereas “push” marketing is non-web marketing such as television, radio, and magazines.
-
“Pull” marketing is generally more effective than “push” marketing.
-
All of the above are differences
Correct Answer
A. All of the above are differencesExplanation
They’re all differences. “Push” marketing means pushing your message out to as many people as possible whereas “pull” marketing means pulling to your offering those prospects who have indicated interest. Before the internet, almost all marketing was “pushed”. Today, much more is “pulled” from those who have already indicated interest by searching for a specific term, for example. Part of the business case for PPC is that “pull” marketing is more effective. (Module 11, The business case for PPC, Smith)Rate this question:

It’s the Key Performance Indicators (KPI’s) so it’s imperative that you choose your KPI’s wisely. Bottom line: In order to measure the performance of your website, you have to decide what you want it to accomplish, and then measure those activities that indicate the performance of your website toward those goals with simple, agreed-upon KPI’s.

You’re engaged in a PPC campaign. Your web analytics show zero conversions for a particular keyword. But you’re wondering whether this keyword is actually driving assists to conversions even if it’s not driving direct conversions. What should you do?
-
Drop the keyword. Forget about it. It’s worthless without attributable conversions.
-
Use a dedicated phone number to test and track whether this particular keyword is driving calls to your business.
-
Drop the spending on that keyword, but don’t eliminate it completely.
-
Ask your customers how they found you.
Correct Answer
A. Use a dedicated phone number to test and track whether this particular keyword is driving calls to your business.Explanation
Your web analytics won’t tell you whether a particular keyword is driving assists such as visits to your store or calls to your business. So before you drop a keyword with zero or very few direct conversions, it’s very easy to set up a dedicated phone line tied to that keyword and measure whether it’s driving calls. If it is, then it’s still a good keyword and you’ll be glad you didn’t just drop it. (Module 11, The business case for PPC, Smith)Rate this question:

-
PPC can and should be used as the Return on Investment (ROI) benchmark for all your other marketing efforts.
-
PPC is a path toward increased market research and competitive intelligence.
-
PPC is among the most analyzable and trackable marketing tactics.
Correct Answer
A. PPC can and should be used as the Return on Investment (ROI) benchmark for all your other marketing efforts.Explanation
It’s not that PPC should be used as the benchmark for all other marketing tactics; it’s the other way around. Use the ROI of your other marketing efforts as a benchmark for measuring the ROI of PPC. As you refine your ongoing PPC efforts, you’ll see that ROI change, perhaps drastically, so you don’t want to use it as a benchmark.
