Which digital marketing skills and job titles are highly sought after? And how much do those in-demand positions pay, on average?
To find out, Moz and Fractl analyzed 75,315 job listings posted on Indeed.com in June 2015 containing 10 digital marketing keywords, such as "content marketing," "SEO," "social media marketing," "inbound marketing," "PPC," and "Google Analytics."
The researchers then looked at keyword trends, which job titles appeared most frequently, and average salaries. LinkedIn search results were also used to identify keyword growth in user profiles.
Below, key findings from the report.

Great article on what functions are in demand and typical pay rates. I will be sharing this with my marketing students at Winona State University in my night class Internet Marketing and Social Media. The class in nearly all seniors graduating this year in either December or May, 2016. They will be excited to see the possibilities.
