Do You Feel Your Site is NOT Delivering the Goods?

There are usually multiple reasons for this, and you can assess this quickly by checking YOUR site's key search engine indicators - click links below to view your;

 

 LINK POPULARITY

S.E. SATURATION

 KEYWORD VERIFICATION

How many links are there to YOUR site? How many links are there to your COMPETITOR'S sites? How many of YOUR pages are actually indexed by the search engines? How does that compare with the opposition? Check if your key words or phrases are found within the first 3 pages when searching on the  main Search Engines... if not, you are missing out on major traffic volumes. 

Search Engine Optimisation Explained

Search engine optimisation is part art and part science. The goal of the search engines is to deliver the most relevant results to each searcher, whilst your goal is to achieve a good flow of qualified traffic - people who want what you sell. The two goals are not mutually exclusive - if you focus on delivering useful, relevant and accessible content. 

Relevancy, from a web site's perspective, is determined by multiple factors, some main examples include;

Form vs Function - Mistake No.1 - to focus on how it looks at the expense of how it works! Can a search engine's spider/crawler even access the Home and internal pages? If you use "splash" pages, FRAMES, JavaScript menus or Flash and have no internal text links, then you've probably shot yourself in the foot. Few Search Engines will penetrate through the JavaScript and Flash code to internal pages, meaning much of your site is invisible! A key design rule is to ensure every internal page is accessible to the search engines!

 

Do your users have to suffer through a Splash page with a logo and a "Click to Enter Site" ??? This is bad form...  The attention span of users is limited, and immediate gratification is required. The majority of users still use 56k dial up. Design for the user, don't indulge the designer's urge to demonstrate his graphical genius. 

SEO addresses design flaws...

 

Who You Are vs What You Do - Mistake No.2 - to emphasise the WHO and overlook the WHAT part of the search/user equation. Potential customers are looking for what you offer, and usually are less likely  to be looking for who you are

 

E.g. if you are selling blue plastic bath toys, make it plainly obvious! Starting off with "Welcome to Joe's Amazing Plastic Factory" and/or wasting the Home Page on a company biography is NOT going to attract visitors, nor sell products! 

SEO usually concentrates on the services/products offered...

 

Content - Mistake No.3 - Forgetting to ensure that the site actually contains a substantial volume of information relevant to the anticipated needs of your target market? Do you know who your target market is? Do you know how they  search for what you sell, what words or phrases are used? Does the site emphasise this by appropriate title, description, keyword and other meta-tags? Do the body text, page headers, and internal content pages support the site's title and theme with considered use of the anticipated search keywords?

SEO ensures a consistent theme is carried throughout the content...

 

Links - Mistake No.4 - overlooking the vital importance of links. Search engines reward sites that are regarded as a significant hub or authority within the community of of sites relating to the search term. If you have lots of content, and lots of people link to you because of this, rankings rise accordingly. Conversely, no content = no links = low rankings. Incoming links (often referred to as back-links) are a key relevancy ranking component of search engine ranking algorithms. Internal links are important, and individual content pages accrue importance within the site according to the number and context of internal links. Outgoing links are also important, but less so. The quality of links is more important than the total number of links

 

E.g. This hypothetical example has three sites relating to Aviation, both have similar content, structure, layout etc:

  • Site 1 has 5 incoming links from aviation related sites

  • Site No.2 has 150 miscellaneous links from "link farms" or "free for all" links programs.

  • Site 3 has 17 incoming links from aviation related sites

All other things being equal, a search for aviation will return Site 3 at the top of the results.  

SEO assesses and addresses links... 

 

Keywords - Mistake No.5 - Using the "shotgun" approach to keywords. You need to know how your potential clients/customers/visitors will search for what you offer. Keywords are talked about a lot, but not well understood. It is not a matter of searching out the dozens, or in some cases hundreds, or words which are related to your site's central theme - and then stuffing all of them into a Keyword meta-tag. 

 

That is counter-productive and merely diffuses the effectiveness of the appropriate keywords you have uncovered in the process. 

 

Rather, you should approach the issue from two perspectives - what you sell, and how potential customers currently look for it. Determine the types of searches that people make, and ensure your site is "optimised" or focused on the keyword terms most likely to bring in "qualified traffic" - those who actually want what you offer!

SEO focuses heavily of keywords and phrases which define your sites central theme... 

There are literally dozens of components built into search engine ranking algorithms, and the more of them you get "right" on your site, the more effective it will be. I’ve previously been awarded national and international awards for innovation in information technology, and have a reputation for excellence in my efforts. I look forwards to the challenge of helping you with your site development.
