Generally
Boosting SEO with Internal Linking
Internal linking may not be the first thing to consider when marketers think about SEO, but these links are fundamental to helping visitors find your content. In fact, according to Content Marketing Institute, “Internal links also help Google understand your site’s structure and determine which are the more important pages based on the quantity of internally linked content.” Read about the different types of internal linking to boost your organic search ranking.
Take Note
Exit Intent Pop Ups
Imagine your website visitor is about to leave, but a pop-up appears and entices them to stay on the page. An exit intent pop-up occurs when visitors signal they are about to bounce – essentially, this tactic is a last-ditch effort to convert them. Learn more about this powerful marketing tool and pop-up examples from HubSpot’s blog post to improve conversion and revenue.
Reality Technologies
Virtual technology like AR and VR has provided ample opportunities for businesses to deliver an immersive and interactive customer experience, such as a virtual tour of a model home. View Forbes’s article and BDX’s infographic to take your business to the next level with reality technologies.

The back features a volumetric Tyrannosaurus sculpture made of titanium and black PVD coating and an eye created with genuine amber. But the real show stopper is one of the dinosaur’s teeth molded from a piece of a real T-Rex’s tooth. Check out this case in Mashable’s article.
