Many of my clients have difficulties marketing their businesses, which is why they hire me to help them.

What about you? What's your toughest marketing challenge? And more importantly, what are you doing to overcome it?

Toughest would be to advertise to a particular niche. Since most people rely on PPC, it is kind of hard to know if the guy exploring my website through the advertising company falls under my targeted niche.

To overcome this issue we basically started to advertise in specific website which hosts our targeted niche contents :).

Getting customers to my website is the biggest challenge inspite of SEO. Also, getting them to stay and return is also a tough challenge.

My biggest challenge is trying to continue to grow my business. We have almost saturated the local market and need to find new areas to grow.

I think my biggest problem is the fact that I have no offline presence :( When it comes to the internet, we have so many top 10 rankings for top search phrases, 5000 unique visitors a month and generate around 15 leads a day from the website.

I need to start generating business from other areas other than internet. You never know when Google can pull the plug which would destroy my entire business :mad:

Vegas I know exactly how you feel. I've been involved in situations like yours and it's turned out good and bad, but the most important thing for you to do is stay organic and not do any black hat techniques that may sacrifice your biz. The turtle wins the race.

The biggest challenge i've faced is maintaining white hat SEO techniques and still overcoming my competition, but so far it's going well.

You may want to check out hittails...I think it will help out in your PPC to tell you exactly how they find you and then you can make the appropriate adjustments from there

good luck
