Top Digital Assistants
Every digital giant worth knowing is investing in making artificial intelligence-powered (AI) digital
assistants more precise and powerful.
The leaders in this race are Google, Amazon, Microsoft, and Apple, all of which have their own digital
assistant:
• Google Assistant
• Siri by Apple
• Alexa by Amazon
• Cortana by Microsoft
Larger IT companies are now developing digital assistants of their own as well, due to the assistant’s
efficiency in keeping track of trends and boosting customer service. Now that voice search is also
becoming a commonly used service, consumers are interacting with search engines in new ways.

8 Ways Digital Assistants are Boosting Digital Marketing Effectiveness
While digital assistants are making people’s lives more convenient, this smart technology is also boosting
digital marketing effectiveness.
Here are eight ways digital assistants are improving the daily grind for marketers and advertisers.
1. Accuracy and Preciseness
In the initial stages, Google’s voice search assistant voice recognition precision rate was at 5 percent.
Now, the technology has a precision rate of 90-95 percent – an astonishing achievement, and all thanks
to the advancements in AI. This level of precision will help marketers connect to their audience who are
searching for their products and services.

2. Automation and Personalization
Digital assistants learn a lot about consumer behavior through machine learning and AI.
For instance, depending on the learning data, assistants offer personalized results based on the
consumer’s interests and behaviors. This enhances the user experience. By using these behavioral
statistics, marketers can target their prospects with more accuracy. This will also increase the quality of
traffic and engagement rates.

3. Automated Learning Systems
Much of what marketers are working on is based on assumptions from consistently testing and adjusting
their campaigns. PPC analysis and performance reporting tools are a lot more accurate than what they
were like in the past.
A built-in AI system that learns from user engagement and behavior throughout the customer journey
will help advertisers to optimize PPC campaigns. One of the most fascinating uses of digital assistants is
the possibility to display targeted content, such as personalized product recommendations for customers.

4. Featured Snippet Integration in Search Results
One of the most common features of these assistants is their ability to integrate into search engines via
voice search.
Voice assistants such as Google Assistant retrieve answers to a user’s spoken questions by generating the
most appropriate, relevant websites. This provides marketers with an advantage over the targeting
approach due to the increased relevance of the results.

5. Increased Traffic
The low response time of results is a big attraction for users, which has led to an increased amount of
generated searches through digital assistants. Ultimately, this increases the number of opportunities for
marketers to climb to the top of Google. Users are also more likely to navigate directly to your site
through voice search.

6. Better Content For Optimization
Digital assistants are changing the way writers tell stories.
Marketers are moving towards more engaging, interactive content to climb to perform better in voice
search results. This ultimately results in online content refinement. Now, content marketers don’t need
to create large, text-based blogs. Instead, people are more attracted to brief, concise content.

7. Increased Engagements
In the future, marketers may begin using digital assistants to present customized, optimized results to
their prospects.
This will lead visitors down to the bottom of the marketing funnel. Presenting visitors with the easiest
and most direct methods of purchasing will ultimately increase conversion rates.

8. Predictive Analysis

accurately project future events.
Through the power of AI, marketers can design these assistants to analyze previous campaign data,
suggest optimized changes and predict the future profitability of these changes.

Why Every Digital Marketing Specialist Needs to Understand AI
AI is here to stay. The technology is becoming more sophisticated, and more powerful than ever before.
This is especially true when it comes to analyzing the buyer’s journey through PPC campaigns. However,
this doesn’t mean that as a digital marketer, you should become an expert at AI in order to survive.
All you need to do is understand how to incorporate these methods into your marketing strategies. While
you don’t need to know the technical side of AI, it’s useful to utilize AI as a tool to help shape your PPC
campaigns.

Are You Ready for the Marketing Revolution?
Although it’s too early to know, the increasing global usage of digital assistants suggests further AI
domination in the future.
These virtual assistant developments are reducing the need for human interaction due to their efficiency
and time-saving capabilities. However, that doesn’t mean these technologies will replace humans
altogether. Choosing to adapt to the new era of AI or to remain with past trends is your choice.
AI adaptation is quickly becoming a must-do, and digital assistants are predicted to play a huge role in the
years ahead. There’s no better time to start experimenting with them than today.
