A few months ago, Google came out with an eBook called Zero Moment of Truth. The premise of the book is that consumers are impacted by a multitude of information sources at various stages of the purchase cycle.

They want marketers to align with them in providing relevant content to searchers, particularly in the paid channel.
Google Analytics guru Avinash Kaushik says, “Don’t let your marketing write checks that your website can’t cash.” In other words, have relevant destinations for all of the marketing that you’re doing. Sounds like pretty good advice to me. I guess it’s time to create some landing pages.
