Search Engines
- Can you find your site on search engines?
- How are people finding your site?
- What words do they use to find what they're looking
for?
- How many visitors are you getting? Are they coming back?
- How do people find other sites like yours?
Important questions you should ask yourself. Building a web
site is one thing. Getting into and ranking well on search engines
is a completely different process. Of course, proper design of your web site makes the search engine work much easier. That's why hiring a web designer who knows search engines can be more cost effective - I won't have to redesign or recreate a flash site (most search engines don't index anything but text).
The best way to market your site online is to get free incoming
business from natural search engine results. You choose words
and phrases that potential customers will type in to find you,
and build your site including these "keywords".
So what is Search Engine Optimization? Simply put, it means
making your web site search engine friendly.It's a long term
process that involves many different variables.It's an art combined
with a science. It involves nearly every aspect of the design
of your site. It requires heavy research, monitoring progress,
and patience.
I follow all of the
standard ethical practices that the industry has set up. I create
good quality web sites with valuable keyword rich content, that
is useful to visitors and is appealing to the methods that all
search engines use to judge web sites' value to consumers
I back up my skills in search engine optimization by referring
potential clients to the search engines for proof. I'll give
you real-time examples like "Go to Yahoo, type in 'autoflo
humidifier parts'; you'll see the site www.autoflohumidifiers.com
is #1 in the natural search results. I can give you dozens of
examples just like that. not all are #1 of course, but I consistently
help companies rank in the first three pages of results, depending
on the search term used and how competitive it is. Here's a sample
report that shows how their site is doing on the search engines that
I provide to my clients. |
