Brick-and-mortar stores performing lower than e-tailers

Information related to brick-and-mortar retailers shows up only 12% of the time in search queries. It is 30% in case of e-tailers who are considered to be the group with a stronger base of online search presence.

The potential of online search

How behind are traditional retailers in search battle?
Though traditional retailers have improved their search presence over past 3 years, they are still far behind online retailers in share of search listings. E-tailers accounted for around 35% of total search share in 2008. It is only around 12% for brick-and-mortar retailers. Traditional retailer websites are far more behind in organic or free search listings in 2008 with only 2% share of total listings than e-tailer websites (17%).
It is high time for traditional retailers to change their marketing strategies according to the consumer behaviors. The potential for online search to generate business opportunities has improved dramatically over the past years. Many e-tailers, much lower in size compared to brick-and-mortar retailers, are developing their businesses a lot with the help of search marketing. Traditional retailers have the potential to perform much better than many of the e-tailers by enhancing their search presence.
