Tip # 10 Remember the local and international nuances of a common language When serving an audience in the region you're targeting, take care to look local, and to use the correct colloquialisms and language. This will help improve authority, respect, trust and even persuasion. Additionally, it'll help with localized keyword targeting in the search engines, and communications in social media. @engine From Neil Marshal at Webmaster World
Some simple examples of British English and American English keyword differences: • Trainers (British) vs. Sneakers (American) • Nappy (British) vs. Diaper (American) • Car park (British) vs. Parking Lot (American) • Petrol Station (British) vs. Gas Station (American) Even the concept of Internationalisation and localisation (British) Internationalization and localization (American). It's not just keywords. Phrases from a local area can make a difference to acceptance. Local phrases can make a difference, and using the keywords with the correct localized phrases together and your business and its communications could look more like a friendly local business.

Tip #15 - Leverage Facebook Paid Opportunities FB is throttling your ability to broadcast to your audience. But their incredibly powerful paid ad tools are worth exploring. Facebook offers "Facebook Audience," which allows you to serve ultra-targeted ads to your audience. This opens doors for cross channel marketing, re-targeting, and highly targeted incentive campaigns. In addition to audience, FB has the most robust demographic and geographical targeting tools in the game. Did you know that there are 8,600 Facebook users capable of being targeted in Shavertown, PA? You probably don't care - but I do because that's where I live! You can also filter your ads by gender, interest, socio economic status, and more!
