What is Website Advertising for Financial Advisors?

Digital marketing for financial advisors is simply advertising products or services through online channels like websites, search engines, social media, email, and mobile apps.

Most financial advisors think of digital marketing as another phrase for SEO or PPC advertising. Even though both services are used for internet marketing, neither fully describes the depth of complete internet advertising plans for financial firms.

Modern online advertising campaigns often include dozens of website advertising plans, all working together to help your financial firm improve visibility and conversions.

Some of the best financial advisor digital marketing tactics include:

  • Increase traffic to your financial firm digital assets (websites, apps, sales funnels, etc) through SEO, social advertising, affiliate advertising, or PPC advertising.
  • Create financial advisor landing pages, sales funnels, and optimize your conversion rate to increase revenue.
  • Track how visitors interact with your digital assets to figure out improvement areas, retargeting opportunities, or conversion rates.
  • Show the expertise, authority, and trust of your financial advisors through content marketing, video production, link building, review collection, social media proof, and website improvements.
  • Grow your financial firm through email marketing, SMS marketing, and social media management.

Financial Advisor SEO Plans

Achieving a first-page search placement for competitive keywords requires a comprehensive search engine optimization strategy as part of your overall digital marketing plan. A comprehensive review and optimization of your off-page, technical, and on-page search engine optimization is necessary to demonstrate value to search engines, as these three components work together.

When we take on new financial advisor website marketing customers, we often find site speed, content quality, and backlink profile problems. To tackle these SEO challenges and improve your search optimization, technical, on-page, and off-page SEO optimizations can be utilized. Let's delve into each of these financial firm search engine optimization services in greater detail:

  • Technical SEO includes factors such as website speed, site security, XML sitemaps, website architecture, structured data, Open Graph tags, and broken pages. These elements affect the way Google crawls and indexes your content, and how visitors interact with your financial advisor website. To tackle technical search engine optimization challenges, the help of a web developer is usually required since these concerns are often tied to your financial advisor website's platform or theme. We employ a team of web developers with expertise in widely-used platforms like Shopify and WordPress.
  • On-Page SEO includes factors such as frequently asked questions, page titles, meta tags, images, keyword research, content silos, content writing, internal linking, competitive analysis, and frequently asked questions. By improving these components of your on-page search engine optimization, you can enable search engines to gain a deeper understanding of the worth of your content and acknowledge your financial firm as a reputable source on the subject matter. Furthermore, it can assist in boosting key metrics such as "time on site" for your audience, demonstrating to search engines that you delivered useful information to the searcher. Never underestimate the value and importance of content creation within your financial firm digital marketing strategy.
  • Off-Page SEO encompasses various factors that determine the quality and naturalness of your backlink profile, including the number of backlinks and referring domains, the relevance and authority of those backlinks, link velocity, social signals, and more. Building natural backlinks to your website and internal pages is crucial in conveying to search engines that your website and its content are authoritative and deserve recognition from external sources.

To make sure your financial firm website marketing plan is effective, it's essential to take a comprehensive approach to SEO that addresses all the important areas, rather than just a select few. If you build an incredibly fast website without useful content or quality backlinks you will likely never see the first page of search results, except in unique circumstances. To see tangible improvements in your search engine rankings, it's crucial to address all areas of SEO, rather than just a few. To prevent your financial firm from being surpassed by competitors who have completed all the necessary search engine optimization checklist items, it's essential to allocate your focus equally.

Backlink Building Strategies for Financial Firms

Most financial firms tend to overlook the importance of creating authoritative links in off-page search engine optimization, which is why it is worth emphasizing this aspect of SEO.

Competitive keywords and long-tail phrases on the first page of search results typically feature large retailers in product-specific searches and long-standing service providers in local search results. Upon further analysis of the exact pages that show up in these search results, you'll typically find that the number of backlinks pointing to those pages far exceeds the number pointing to relevant pages on your financial firm website. That is because search engines use backlinks to determine how authoritative your financial firm site and content are on a particular subject.

By utilizing white-hat search engine optimization backlink building services, you can develop quality backlinks to your homepage and internal pages, which will help enhance your web pages' placement. It's essential to understand that this is a long-term effort for your financial firm website advertising strategy. Don't get excited about this for a few weeks and build dozens of backlinks, then move on to something else for several months or years. Skipping the long-term commitment of building high-quality backlinks will hinder your chances of appearing on the first page of search results. Building a consistent and long-term link-building strategy that focuses on gaining high-quality backlinks from relevant websites and social platforms is key to improving the online presence of your financial firm. Overdoing exact-match phrases, purchasing excessive backlinks from PBNs, or engaging in black-hat link-building techniques will only harm the natural state of your backlink profile.

We utilize numerous white-hat financial advisor backlink authority building techniques in our internet advertising plans, including:

  • Utilizing the “Skyscraper Technique” to build a better version of a ranked article from a competitive financial firm.
  • Writing in-depth articles to have featured on third-party websites as a guest post, which includes a link back to your financial firm website.
  • Reaching out to high-authority websites related to financial advisors to suggest content improvements to existing articles that may have become outdated, or didn't cover a specific topic relevant to you.
  • Adding your website to industry-specific directories by scanning competitors to see their most valuable business listings and NAP citations (Name, Address, Phone).

Online Reputation Management (ORM) Tactics for Financial Firms

Your online reputation is an important trust factor search engines use to determine rank positions, and your target audience uses it to make purchasing decisions. This is true for all types of purchases and decision-making, ranging from the selection of a nearby service provider, the purchase of a product on an ecommerce store, and even the selection of financial advisors. People love reading about the positive experiences, and sometimes even more about negative experiences, that others had with your financial firm.

For local service companies, we can help you develop a review generation program within your digital advertising to increase the rate at which past clients leave reviews for your financial firm. This often involves collecting reviews on Google My Business, UpCity, Yellow Pages, Angi, Yelp, and other online review collection websites.

If you run an ecommerce-focused financial firm, we can help with the collection of product reviews and company reviews. For an ecommerce business, it is important to collect reviews for both the quality of your products and the customer service experience of your financial firm. Online shoppers want to know the product they are purchasing is of sufficient quality or utility, but they also need to know you will be there to fulfill the order and answer questions after the sale.

For the reputation of professional service providers, such as doctors or attorneys, we can help establish protocols within your internet marketing campaign for the collection of testimonials to ensure prospects always see a positive image of your financial advisors. This includes review generation, reputation monitoring, online reputation repair, survey campaigns, and social media growth. In some cases, even search engine optimization can be used to help curate the best possible first-page results for the online reputation of your financial firm.

The risk of ignoring your online reputation is the loss of long-term business, which often isn't noticed until significant damage has been accumulated. Take control of your online reputation today to ensure you always put forth a better image than your competition.

Content Marketing Strategies for Financial Firms

Most financial firms use content marketing as a means of attracting, engaging, and retaining a high-interest audience by creating and sharing relevant blog articles, instructional videos, case studies, white papers, and other digital media. This website advertising approach helps establish your financial firm as an industry thought leader, while also helping you dominate organic search results and the attention span of your target audience.

When your target clients begin to identify your financial firm as the source of valuable advice or guidance you will find it is easier to guide them through your sales funnel. We help financial advisor digital marketing clients put together the right content marketing plan for their financial firm.

It is important to identify your target audience before starting a content marketing service. This will help you understand the best media format for the content, whether that be informative blog posts, detailed case studies, informal whitepapers, best-in-class listicles, or drip email campaigns. It will also help you determine the best delivery method, which can be from social media, search results, or some other medium.

We often help implement content marketing strategies for financial advisors that involve blog content, infographics, podcasts, videos, email campaigns, whitepapers, case studies, surveys, webinars, checklists, listicles, and lead magnets. We particularly like using the case study method because it is a powerful tool for showing expertise as a leading online marketing service provider. These are all effective ways to market content if you implement them correctly for your financial firm.

Social Media Ads Game Plans for Financial Firms

The use of social media marketing in digital marketing involves paid advertising being run on social platforms like Twitter, TikTok, LinkedIn, Instagram, and Facebook. These social media channels offer a quick and effective method for connecting to your target audience by allowing you to select interests, behaviors, and demographics. However, the downside can be the added cost of setting up the campaigns, creating landing pages, building out sales funnels, and performing conversion rate optimization to ensure the PPC advertising function as a proper lead generation or sales generation tool for your financial firm.

By leveraging the data sources of social platforms, financial firms can hyper-target their audiences to deliver personalized content based on demographics, behaviors, interests, and other factors. While this is an enormous opportunity for most established financial firms, it can be an expensive lesson for businesses that aren't ready to take full advantage of social ads.

We help financial firms build out the necessary sales funnels and lead generation tools to make the most of their social ads. In addition, we suggest creating tactics for conversion optimization and retargeting as part of our internet marketing campaigns, as both tactics can enhance the return on ad spend for your campaigns. Let's not forget to mention the freshness of your ad creatives. When running financial firm social media ads campaigns, you must be mindful of ad decay and ad fatigue to prevent your campaigns from becoming stagnant and suffering from degraded performance.

Search Advertising Campaigns for Financial Firms

The use of search ads in digital advertising involves paid advertising being run on search engines like Google and Bing. You will find that Google Ads and Bing Ads offer a quick and effective method for connecting your financial firm to an engaged audience that is actively looking for your products or services. The downside is the cost of setting up an effective and scalable paid advertising service for your financial firm, which often involves the creation of landing pages or sales funnels that are optimized for conversion opportunities.

We help financial firms of all sizes build out the necessary landing pages and funnels to grow leads and boost revenue, which makes paid ads a cost-effective digital marketing plan. For any search engine marketing service, we recommend creating a plan for retargeting and conversion rate optimization to improve your return on investment.

Developing Revenue Funnels for Financial Firms

A sales funnel, or purchase funnel, is the visual representation of journeys taken by clients with your financial firm. The illustration of a sales funnel, which is often referred to as a marketing funnel or revenue funnel, looks just like a physical funnel you'd use to pour a liquid into a container. The top of the funnel is always larger because it illustrates the large number of potential clients that might interact with your financial firm. The funnel narrows at the bottom to represent the various exit points within the sales process. Naturally, the bottom of the funnel is the smallest part because it represents the number of people who converted through the generation of a lead or the sale of a product.

The development of a sales funnel for financial firms is more difficult than the explanation of its concepts. For example, some of the most successful sales funnels produce millions of dollars of value each day for their owners. To build a funnel that produces value for your financial firm, you must put thought into the goal of the sales funnel and the type of sales funnel you want to implement.

There are numerous types of sales funnels, including self-liquidating funnels, automated webinar funnels, lead magnet funnels, self-liquidating funnels, automated webinar funnels, lead magnet funnels, and dozens of others to consider for your financial firm. When you work with one of our financial advisor-focused internet advertising experts, you will have an experienced website marketer to bounce ideas off to help you determine the best type of revenue funnel for your financial firm. Alternatively, if you don't have an interest in being involved in the process, we can research more about your financial firm to determine the best funnels to explore and test within your website marketing plan.

CRO for Financial Firms

There is almost no reason to neglect conversion rate optimization within financial advisor digital marketing plans. This is a critical aspect of any type of internet marketing for financial advisors since it directly impacts the ability of the marketing service to provide value for the financial firm paying for the marketing service.

Boosting conversion rates can have a huge impact on your bottom line. Before you pursue a CRO plan for your financial firm, it is important to understand what it is, how it works, and how to evaluate the service. This is a time-intensive process that involves plenty of iterative research and testing. What makes it most difficult is the CRO tactics that work for one financial advisor might not work for another financial advisor.

The most common financial advisor CRO plans include reducing form fields on contact forms, testing different call-to-action phrases, creating attractive headlines, implementing a sense of urgency, fixing mobile website glitches, improving page speed, adding exit-intent popups, defining value for the visitor, and adding trust and social proof signals.

True conversion rate optimization for financial advisors can become much more complex. To really dive into CRO, we must fully understand your business offer, your competitors, the strengths and weaknesses of your value proposition, how visitors are currently interacting with your digital assets, the online reputation of your financial advisors, and many other factors.

Email Marketing Game Plans for Financial Firms

You can use email marketing within a digital strategy to improve brand awareness, generate website traffic, grow sales and revenue, bring awareness to your social profiles, engage past financial advisors, and gain valuable information about your target audience.

We help our digital marketing financial firm clients use Mail Chimp, Campaign Monitor, and Constant Contact within their email marketing plans. These are robust email marketing tools to create subscriber lists, segment your audience, and even develop email marketing drip services.

The most important part of email marketing is developing a plan to increase your subscribers. We help email marketing financial firm customers build and nurture their email marketing lists by implementing email collection opportunities within referral programs, affiliate programs, lead magnets, exit-intent popups, checkout processes, lead magnets, and numerous other methods.

Lead Gen for Financial Firms

For local service providers, the most important part of an inbound marketing program is lead generation. Not everything can be sold on the internet. For a lot of products and services, a phone conversation or in-person conversation is needed to close the sale. For these types of business industries, lead generation tactics are going to be critical.

There are many types of lead generation strategies to consider, all of which have been tried and implemented by our website advertising team, for financial advisors and other professionals, at some point in the past. The most common lead gen plans for financial advisors include the creation of helpful content, retargeting past website visitors, nurturing past contacts with email marketing, engaging visitors with live chat, developing free tools for visitors to use, creating referral programs and affiliate programs, creating video content that can be shared online, setting up free webinars for visitors to attend, or offering helpful downloadable content in a lead magnet.

For most financial advisor digital advertising services where lead generation is a primary goal, our team will develop and implement one or more lead gen strategies in your digital assets to test what works best for your financial firm.

Video Marketing for Financial Firms

As a comprehensive online advertising agency for financial advisors, we have our own in-house video production and video marketing department. This has been extremely helpful for financial firm content marketing tactics that required original video assets. More importantly, we've used our video production department for the creation of video ads on YouTube and video marketing within Facebook Ads campaigns. There are many great applications for video production within your digital advertising strategy for your financial firm. You can use videos to demonstrate unique products, teach new concepts, and improve visitor duration. You can also implement videos within internet advertising plans to bring life to paid campaigns.

Why You Should Invest in Online Advertising for Your Financial Firm

If you run an financial firm that depends on selling a product or service, at some point, you will contemplate some type of marketing to boost revenue. There are many reasons to consider website marketing over other, more traditional, marketing tactics for your financial firm. Next, let's explore some of the persuasive grounds for incorporating the digital marketing strategy into your financial firm:

  • Digital marketing is frequently more cost-effective for financial advisors than other marketing methods since it can begin with a small investment and then be expanded as success is evaluated.
  • Through the application of valuable reporting tools such as Google Analytics, you can acquire deeper insights into the quantity of visitors who interacted with your brand, the duration of time they were engaged with your marketing efforts, and whether they returned to your website in the days, weeks, or months after their initial engagement.
  • Everyone is constantly on their phones, tablets, and desktop computers. Why not opt for a marketing approach and platform that has the capability to pursue your target audience wherever they travel in life?
  • Compared to print marketing, billboard ads, television commercials, and radio ads, internet marketing provides much greater flexibility because it is much easier to make modifications.
  • Online marketing for financial advisors provides the best capacity for user engagement. Obtaining comments, likes, or shares for non-digital advertisements of your financial firm can be very difficult.

6 Key Focus Points for Website Success

How to Develop a Online Marketing Program for Financial Firms

To kickoff your online advertising campaign for your financial firm, it's vital to develop a plan that includes measurable business goals. You want to ensure everyone involved understands the ultimate goal of the website advertising service to prevent spending time on ideas that won't positively impact your financial firm.

1.) Pinpoint your target audience

Once you have established a clear set of business goals for your financial firm, you can start to identify the audience you want to target. Understanding the people you are trying to reach is essential. This enables you to personalize your digital marketing endeavors for your financial firm to the platforms your intended audience engages with, and make certain that your messaging resonates with them.

2.) Determine audience needs

Having identified your business objectives and target customers, you can now make a well-informed choice about the needs and search intent of your intended audience. This can help ensure that your financial advisors target the appropriate keywords for your digital advertising, and that your content marketing approaches are in sync with your audience's requirements.

3.) Begin with services that have a slower pace earlier on

If you intend to include SEO in your financial advisor digital plan, make it your top priority. The slowest moving online marketing plan for financial firms, and even other industries, is SEO. Improvements to your website, content, and backlinks for the website advertising services of financial firms can take several weeks or even months to fully reflect in search engine placements.

4.) Creating high-quality landing pages or sales funnels should be a priority

At this stage, it may be worth exploring PPC advertising options for your financial firm site or other digital assets. It's crucial to create a landing page or sales funnel before sending paid traffic to your home page, product page, or service page. Most PPC advertising campaigns for financial firms that have high bounce rates and low conversion rates make the mistake of sending traffic to a page that isn't optimized to convert a cold audience. Effective lead generation for financial firms often involves the use of splash pages and sales funnels to guide visitors towards the desired marketing outcome.

5.) Develop email sequences that are automated for retargeting purposes

After setting up plans to attract traffic to your financial firm website, it's important to think about how to engage with those visitors even after they've left your site. Not everyone who visits your website, landing page, or sales funnel will convert on the first visit. One should explore options to create an email marketing list, give SMS alerts for new promotions, or establish tracking pixels to retarget people who recently browsed through your website.

6.) Incorporate ongoing testing

Once you have implemented all of these digital marketing strategies for your financial firm, it is time to enter the optimization and testing phase. This involves ongoing evaluation of the success of your campaigns, identifying areas for improvement, and even trying out new ideas from case studies or white papers. You should always be in a state of conversion rate optimization throughout all aspects of the digital advertising service of your financial firm.
