An Introduction To Search Engine Optimization (SEO)

June 20, 2010

Every online business owner’s desire is to be able to get their business website onto the first pages within the search engines’ search results page. Achieving this allows significant traffic, from the search engines, to be driven to their online business website at no cost. The fight to be found on the first page of search engines such as Google, Yahoo and MSN are very competitive, and many factor are involved.

There are many different factors that contribute to search engine optimization. These are outlined below:

1. Relevant Keywords

Keywords refer to the words (or phrases of words) that people type into the search box when making a search for their topic of interest. Choosing the right keywords for your business website is very important and a little research and brainstorming is necessary for the optimization of your website. Some tips for you when researching your keywords are:
- Choose keywords that are relevant to your website
- Choose keywords that people are actually searching for
- Choose keywords that are not too highly competitive
- Make use of long-tail keywords

2. The Tag

One of the most important, yet overlooked, factors affecting the optimization of a website is the tag and the use of your keywords in it. The title tag is one of the first and highest priority factors that the search engines look for when scanning your website. This title tag is also displayed in the search engine results page and should therefore be eye-catching, as well as, relevant to your business website.

3. Content

Search engines value information and quality content. They have, what are call “spiders” that crawl your website. Optimizing your website by writing a few paragraphs on your home page, and subpages, using the chosen keywords will help tell the spiders what your website is about. In addition, it is also important for website owners to update their content on a regular basis as search engines prefer fresh information.

4. Easy Site Navigation

The spiders that crawl your website usually do so in an orderly fashion, from top to bottom, left to right. It is therefore important to incorporate a simple design into your business website, which makes navigation for online customers, as well as these search engine spiders, to use. Looks and flashy graphics will not be beneficial in the eyes of the search engines, and may even harm your website optimization.

5. Keyword Density

Keyword density is the percentage of times your chosen keyword or phrase appears on a web page in comparison to the total number of words on the page. It is important to make sure your keywords appear multiple times on your webpage. It is recommended that a keyword density of 2-5 % is adequate. That means, your keyword should appear at least twice per 100 words. Remember though not to repeat your keywords too much as this may be considered spamming.

6. Backlinks

Once your page is optimized you need to create and build as many high quality backlinks to link back to your business website. These links hold greater weight if they are from relevant websites. A good way to provide your online business website with backlinks is to approach other businesses in your niche, visit related forums and blogs, or write some articles about your business for other websites to learn more about you.

Overall, Search Engine Optimization is a technique worth learning. Even though it can be time consuming, the results are rewarding and long term. More importantly, search engine optimization provide online business websites with free targeted traffic.

Overture or now known as Yahoo because of Yahoo’s acquisition, was the original creator of the use of the P4P style of Internet marketing.

Overture saw that the world wide web was fast becoming the simplest and most handy way to shop, and marketing was going to hit at an all time peak level because of the quantity of businesses in the arena.

Introduction To Sms Mobile Marketing

May 12, 2010

What is SMS?

/>

I expect that the vast majority of readers understand what SMS is. For those new to SMS, it stands for Short Messaging Service and uses something called GSM to send and receive messages between mobile devices. What GSM is and how it works is not covered within the scope of this article, but for the sake of completeness here is its definition in Wikipedia – http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GSM.

So what is mobile marketing?

Mobile marketing is the use of one or more mobile technologies to promote one or more services or products. How this promotion works and what it achieves depends on the thing you want to promote, the audience you are targeting and any other marketing factors. This is discussed in more detail later in this paper.

SMS and mobile marketing

Hopefully by now you understand the principals of SMS and the concept of mobile marketing. If not don’t worry just Google the term “mobile marketing defined” and look SMS up in Wikipedia – http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SMS.

I use Eventmobilemarketingblog.com to keep up with the enormous volume of mobile marketing news. They are dedicated to the review of cutting edge mobile related material throughout the Internet just go ahead and add their RSS to your reader now – trust me, you’ll thank me later.

Why should I use SMS for marketing?

To understand this I need to walk you through a couple of marketing scenarios. If you have ever worked with affiliate promotions or email marketing you will know that follow up and incentives are essential to success, the problem often encountered by these types of marketing is that they are difficult to measure, often rejected automatically and it can take some time to receive a reply. So how can you efficiently follow up on traditional marketing?

In fact all other forms of marketing offer opportunities to get your message out there but they are neither personal nor instant. SMS text messaging is instant; it is delivered into the hands of your target audience. Text messages are opened more often than not and the vast majority of phones only show a summary of the first line of the message. SMS mobile marketing can be personal; it can reach them wherever they are and at any time of the day.

Knowing that your audience will read the first 5 to 10 words is a great advantage because:

You can write an effective introduction to your message body You can make your responses even more targeted by using exclusive terms like “Agricultural sale this weekend!” or “Are you a marketer… boo!” You can include personal details, such as their name, from your automated profiling campaigns – this will be discussed in my next article “Viral SMS mobile marketing”

Many customers say to me “But I have received SMS promotions myself and they were awful!!!” My reply is “Great.” I think it is a good thing that the reputation of SMS is negative – if other people in your market are doing it badly then you can make an incredible impact by doing it well.

Who’s it for?

Without a doubt SMS mobile marketing is the cheapest form of viral and direct marketing available – excluding email of course. In essence mobile marketing IS for everyone, but the recipe and message flow varies greatly depending on the following;

Who you are targeting? Because SMS is so personal you can win or lose leads very quickly. How much you are willing to spend? As you would expect contacting more people incurs more cost. What can you offer? Your products will influence your campaign strategies. What is your campaign designed to achieve? For example text for a call back, brochure, email or a link to a WAP ecommerce site. Starting your first campaign

It would require hundreds of pages and diagrams to cover every possible SMS campaign strategy, message flow and follow up marketing factors. Not to mention the vast array of functionality SMS mobile marketing service providers offer.

I recommend signing up for a SMS mobile marketing free trial with TheTextWorks.com. They offer three great value packages designed for small to medium businesses within the UK so if nothing else it will be a good introduction. On sign up their support team ran me through a detailed demonstration of what the software can achieve and how it is applicable to my business needs.

An Introduction To Seo Firm Services

December 22, 2009

Search Engine Optimization (SEO) refers to the usage of some ethical methods, processes and techniques for the sole objective of pushing higher a website’s display result ranking when some of the well known search engines are deployed for finding specific and particular keywords or phrases.

/>

Several SEO firms offer professional SEO services and you need to engage them for ensuring that your site ranks high among the search results.

SEO firms in the business of providing professional SEO services in good stead will invariably adopt ethical techniques (also referred to as white hat techniques) to meet with the main objective of boosting the ranking of your site amongst well known search engines. These ethical SEO firms will not deploy unethical techniques (also referred to as black hat techniques) that are not preferred by search engines; adoption of such techniques will invariably end up in having your site removed from the listing of search engines.

Let us go into looking at some of the white hat or ethical techniques followed by such firms in the business of providing professional and good SEO services.

1. Domain aspect: These include using domain names which are short and easy to remember, inclusion of short keywords without hyphens, use of .com or .net extensions for international markets, hosting location based on targeted business market / country, URL names including appropriate keywords that are unique to each page in the site.

2. Technical aspect: These include the inclusion of the robots.txt file that restricts robots or crawlers from accessing your site, keeping the navigation structure simple, inclusion of good, unique meta tags for every page relevant to the contents of that page, ensuring confirmation of the site’s W3C standards.

3. Relating to other aspect points: Giving an accepted privacy policy to the site, filling the website’s contents with SEO copywriting, ensuring excellent keyword visibility and density in the contents of every page.

4. Relating to support service aspect points: Giving support services like rank tracking, SEO reports on a monthly basis detailing progress, index tracking and periodical website ranking checks, submission of the website to well known search engines and multifold directories, submitting the site to classifieds, origination and submission of articles, making up blogs and posting on them, originating and submitting feeds related to RSS to appropriate directories, handling public press release content creation and submission.

In order to increase your knowledge on SEO and to help you distinguish between good and bad SEO services, let’s also take a look at the unethical or black hat techniques that are shunned by firms offering professional SEO services. You must take care to ensure that your site doesn’t, intentionally or unintentionally, use these unethical techniques.

Unethical SEOs use methods like link farms, keyword stuffing, hidden text, article spinning, irrelevant keyword optimization, deploying gateway or doorway pages and linking up to sites with bad precedence.

SEO firms with no repute or morale engage in these black hat (unethical) SEO techniques with the objective of swindling money from unsuspecting customers and offer much discounted prices that customers find unable to resist. The relevance of the search results by well known search engines will likely be mislead by these black hat techniques and, to prevent that, the algorithms followed by the search engines will identify and ban your site in due course.
