Using commonsense when building or fixing your Website

Sunday, January 10th, 2010

Let me begin by saying, It is no secret that the internet is not going anywhere and is highly thought of by many as the most efficient way to market your business to potential clients and customers that need your service, but have no particular business name in mind in their local area to do business with. Why not take advantage of that by having a elite website to be a power selling tool for your business.

Being in the Online Advertising field as long as I have, it has given me the opportunity to meet and talk with so many different types of businesses and business owners about their Internet advertising in the Philadelphia area. In that time, I have seen a lot people that have been taking advantage of and I have heard some real horror stories when it comes to Internet Marketing for local businesses. I think that a large part of this could have been avoided had the business used commonsense before signing on the dotted line!

Let’s talk websites. Every business needs a good website design as much as every person needs a good pair shoes on their feet to go through life to be productive. If you buy a crappy pair of shoes: they will only hurt your feet, limit your potential, and force you to buy a new pair. If you build a crappy website: it will only hurt your business, limit your potential, and force you to build a new one. Good comfortable, reliable, durable pair of shoes is as important as a professional, correctly built, effective website.

Here is how commonsense can help you with building a new website:

· Choose an Internet Marketing Company to build your website because they understand what the website needs in order to effectively compete on the internet for local leads. (Not a graphic designer, or your Uncles->Cousins->sister in-laws->son who thinks they know what they are doing and charges you pennies.)
· When selecting a company to build your website, look at their portfolio of website and decide whether you would do business with one of their sample companies. IF you wouldn’t, why would someone else after they build you a website? (This just day one stuff!)
· If you think it is just OK to build a crappy website just so you have one. It isn’t! Not many people will choose your company to do business with after you present yourself with such a terrible display. (If this is what you want to do, just save the money dummy and treat your employees cheese steaks once a week for lunch, that will get a better response.)
· Choose a local Website Company that can understand the geography that you are trying to target with your Internet Marketing plan. (Just makes sense doesn’t it?)
· Choose a company that truly understands Search Engine Optimization and Pay-Per-Click, and how they need to be considered when building your website (You have to get people to your website for it to be seen!)

Basic Search Engine Optimization Tips

Tuesday, October 20th, 2009

Search engine optimization is the key to gaining more traffic to your website. When people search for information today, they don’t open up the phonebook, the dictionary or the newspaper. Whatever they are trying to find out, they head straight to the search engines. Therefore, if you want to improve your business’s presence it’s all about getting found in the results of the search engines.

That’s what SEO is designed to do. Basically, search engine optimization incorporates everything related to getting your site’s positioning improved within the search engines. If you can make it to the first page of Google, and eventually the number 1 spot on the page, you will see a whirlwind of traffic to your site. You’ll have more prospects and new customers than you know what to do with.

So how do you go about using SEO for your site in order to see better results? While the concept itself seems simple, there are actually many individual components that you have to consider. In addition, the world of search engine optimization is fluid, dynamic and constantly evolving. That means you have to stay on top of all of the latest changes and trends if you want to experience and maintain success.

The first step to the SEO process is researching your market. You need to find the keywords and key phrases that people use to search for information related to the products you sell, the industry that you’re in or the general market that you serve. These keywords are the foundation of what you will be doing with SEO, and you have to find the ones that are popular and widely used without being overly competitive.

Another step of research pertains to looking into your competition. You have to see how much competition there is in your market and for specific terms and phrases, and you have to see how strong that competition is. In addition, you should browse your competitors’ websites to see what you like about them and don’t like about them. Don’t be afraid to borrow from their strengths and learn from their mistakes when creating or optimizing your own site.

Now that you have performed the research itself, you actually have to go about the search engine optimization process. There are many different tactics and strategies here. The most basic of which is incorporating those keywords you found into the content of your page. Be careful not to stuff them in there excessively because you’ll end up looking like spam both to the search engines and to your visitors. Instead work your keywords in naturally so that you can become associated with those specific phrases.

There are also many offsite optimization steps you need to take to really maximize your results. These include establishing your presence in online communities related to your business and also link building. The more links you have, and the better they are in terms of where they come from, the more credibility your website will gain. This will raise your site’s ranking dramatically in the search engines.

This is just a basic overview of some of what’s involved in SEO. The foundation of good SEO work is really research, researching both your market and your competition. From there you’ll have many different factors to consider, including keyword inclusion and link building. Ultimately, proper SEO holds the key to your business succeeding in the online environment.
