Defining digital marketing: learn the meaning of marketing terms and get to grips with the jargon (Skillshare)

Digital marketing is all about driving revenue to your business but to get the most out of the marketing you have to understand all the terms like metrics, calls to action and click-through rates. Social media is ubiquitous but there is so much terminology to know and people can take for granted that you know what it all means! “What’s a hashtag?”; “What does SEO stand for?”; “What IS a blog and where does it actually go?”

Not to worry, none of these are silly questions! I'm going to demystify the common terms you come across which relate to digital marketing.
Often, when I'm running training sessions someone will shyly put up their hand and say, "I'm a bit embarrassed to ask the question, but what IS a hashtag?" and everyone will say, "Oooh, I'm glad you asked that!"
This course is about giving a clear, jargon-free explanation of terms like SEO, to give you more confidence when creating content for the web or managing your social media channels. As a result this makes your digital marketing activities even more effective.

The course is split into three parts:
Common terms on social media. Get handy with hashtags, retweets and reach.
Words on the web. We're talking SEO, keywords, blogging and landing pages.
Making sales! Get to know your calls to action from your click-through rates.
This mini-course is filled with best practice examples to illustrate the explanation of each term.
Who is this course for?
If you're new to digital marketing, or you're an adept marketer, business owner or blogger who is a bit foggy in certain areas, then this course is for you.
It's short and sweet and covers a lot of ground! So it's easy to fit into a break when you quickly want to get up to speed on words relating your website, social media activities or the way you market your business.
Sound good? Let's go!

Marketing for Artists: Learn the Top 5 Marketing Mistakes Artists & Creatives Make (Skillshare)

I’ve been working with artists and creatives to get the word out about their work for more than 12 years. I’ve been on both sides of the fence, as a blogger, handmade shop owner, craft show vendor and digital marketing specialist. I created MissMalaprop.com in 2006 as a place to spread the word about artists I loved. It's evolved since then, and I later ran my own e-commerce shop, where I sold my own handmade work alongside that of other artists.

Boost traffic to your website with Pinterest (Skillshare)

Why? Boost your traffic ten fold, or even 100 fold. If it weren't for Pinterest I wouldn't be getting the thousands of weekly views I receive now. Gone are the days of true organic reach from the likes of Facebook where they have killed organic visitors in favour of paid advertisements. Pinterest doesn't do that. Pinterest still allows people to search for what they need, and receive what they search for. This is best platform for growing your organic views by many, and I'm going to show you how to do it.
