Internet marketers are like the surgeons on Grey's Anatomy - No, really!

Surgeons fix people. They take bodies damaged by disease, trauma or negligence and repair them so that they work as well as they did before, if not better. It takes surgeons years to specialise in a particular field, which gives them the ability to diagnose patients effectively, recommend the best course of treatment and show the types of results that make people weep with joy.
Internet marketers do pretty much the same thing - they just cure websites instead of people. Much like surgeons, Internet marketers diagnose the challenges faced by websites and repair them so that they can work properly. They also optimise your online presence for superior performance.

Another similarity between an ER and a digital agency is that both doctors and Internet marketers specialise in different aspects of their chosen career. Surgeons focus on different parts of the body while Internet marketers focus on different aspects of creating an online presence.

What type of Internet marketing surgeon does your website need?

With a little bit of consideration, it's really quite easy to identify which type of surgeon best describes each type of Internet marketer.
  • Neurosurgeon / SEO Analyst - The brain is the intellectual centre of the human body. It speaks in a language that can be easily interpreted by your body so that it does what it's supposed to do. Similarly, SEO Analysts understand the language of search engines and can help to make sure that your website is not only communicating with Google, but that it's sending the right message. Without search engine optimisation, your website might as well be in a coma.

  • Cardio surgeon / Copywriter - Your heart is what keeps the rest of your body alive. But more than that, it's the metaphorical centre of your emotions. While cardiothoracic surgeons specialise in physically repairing aortas, valves and vessels, copywriters harness the emotional potential of your website to convey a message to your target market. By tugging ever so slightly on the heartstrings, a copywriter can turn a cold-hearted Internet surfer into a loyal customer.

  • Plastic surgeon / Designer - This comparison is a no brainer. Plastic surgeons occupy their time making people look good, whether it's through reconstructive surgery or a nose job. By the same token, web designers know how to make your website look its best without compromising SEO, Usability and Conversion best practices. With a nip here and a tuck there, your website could go from Betty White to Bridget Bardot.

  • Orthopaedic surgeon / Developer - The backbone of your website is undoubtedly its code. What seems like gibberish to the average person is the skeletal structure of your brand's identity on the Internet. Broken links and cracked html can be frustrating for your customers and leave you with fractured sales figures.
