At Fujisan, we deal with digital marketing for businesses in many industries. But if there’s one industry whose purveyors often underutilize a platform with benefits specific to them, it would be autos and Amazon. Here’s why: Auto dealers’ hesitation and how they benefit from Amazon Ads In our experience, lots of car dealerships are a bit reluctant to dive into Amazon-based ads. Their concerns and questions are reasonable; the most common is “Well, nobody is going to buy one of our cars online, so why bother?” This is often accompanied […]
Sometimes when working with SEO, you feel like you’ve hit a ceiling. Every factor that goes into a high-performing site seems to be accounted for. So, what should you tackle when you feel like you’ve done it all? Audit, audit, audit When it feels like you’ve done all you can do, auditing is the first step to figure out what isn’t actually functioning as well as it could.

Given how familiar we all are with YouTube ads, that certainly gives you (along with all advertisers) an advantage with this medium; from a content perspective, you know exactly what makes a YouTube ad insufferable (or worse, immemorable) versus what makes an ad on this platform effective. Other than its properties as a vehicle for content, YouTube has other benefits that are more in line with the focus […]

Example of Display Ad In its simplest form, you’re witnessing an advertiser paying to place an ad on a web page. However, this transaction isn’t just between a website owner and an advertiser – there is […]
When it comes to PPC, it’s not a matter of hitting some settings and then just assuming they’ll do the trick. Well, we suppose you could do that, but it’s probably not a great call. The problem is that PPC campaigns and the factors involved in their success (or lack thereof) are not static — the internet and advertising thereon can be somewhat fickle, plus it’s likely you won’t have all the specs of your campaign perfectly dialed in at first. Hence, to get the most out of a campaign, […]
Forget your experience with online marketing for a moment — what’s your process as a purchaser of items online? Initial things that come to mind are probably searching, browsing, filtering – and then? Would we be correct in guessing that ads pop up (no pun intended) somewhere after those?
