PowerPoint Design from Cattails Multimedia
http://www.cattails.ca
I think the biggest reason for our success is our people. We have a team of project managers, graphic artists and programmers that I feel are the best in the business. What’s really great, especially in an industry where people move around a lot is that our team has been here at Cattails an average 6 years each. That is something I am really proud of.
We have three main areas of service for our clients, Presentations, Web Design, and Video Services.
In many cases, we integrate all three into an effective branding campaign.
We create presentations for a range of uses from large Keynote presentations, to workshops, to one on one sales presentations.
Our research shows that a properly designed and structured audio visual presentation can improve retention rates by over 50%. Sales managers tell us they like to give their sales force PowerPoint presentations for two reasons.
1. It helps them stand out from the competition, and
2. It delivers a consistent sales message that has been structured by Head Office. It keeps the sales guys from going off message.
Web Sites are another area we are quite proud of.
We take a site beyond simply being an electronic brochure, a glorified Yellow Pages ad.
We spend a lot of time working on Search Engine Optimization, and researching and integrating the most effective keywords and phrases into the web copy. Our attitude is that the greatest designed site in the world is of no use to our clients if no one knows it exists. We spend a lot of time integrating design with both SEO strategies and the most current technologies.
A big part of this integration includes video.
Web visitors today expect a more dynamic experience than just paragraphs of text and bullet points.
A compelling audio or video series of messages will provide a greater impression than plain text, and is much more likely to entice a visitor to bookmark a site, or recommend it to a colleague.
We also create off site videos for the specific purpose of driving viewers to the corporate site.
When people visit a site they want to know “Who are you, and what can you do for me?” We know how to answer those questions. We understand not only web video but graphic design and SEO tactics.
We work with our clients on both content and strategy. Our advantage over a lot of our competitors is how we integrate all 3 of our strengths into an effective marketing and branding campaign.
That’s the Cattails advantage.

SEO Success: Step One is Good Web Design
Creating a well-designed website is the first step in your
internet marketing strategy. Once the website has been created
and optimized, there are further techniques to employ that will
drive traffic to your website for successful, long-term results.
You wouldn’t consider opening a retail store in a major shopping
mall without signage and you shouldn’t consider having a nice
looking website designed without expanding your web presence in
order to be found on the internet. But unless the website is
designed correctly to begin with, follow-on SEO efforts will
have limited results at best. The following strategy overview is
designed to bring about productive SEO results:
- Create an attractive website that is complementary to your
company image and provides your targeted audience with
information about you, your company and your products and/or
services.
- Design a website that has a call-to-action in the form of a
purchase or providing you a contact, subscription or other
commitment from your visitor.
- Create a successful marketing arm for your overall business
promotion and marketing campaign to promote your business,
products and/or services with the many follow-on strategies that
drive traffic to your website.
- Become competitive in your industry and marketplace by meeting
or exceeding the industry marketing standards and attracting a
qualified audience for your products and/or services based on a
strong reputation.
- Generate and maintain or grow internet traffic to your website
resulting in a conversion of traffic into sales of your products
and/or services by evolving as your market demands.
This search engine optimization (SEO) strategy is composed of
several processes in three stages: 1) Good web design, 2)
Attracting attention from search engines and directories, and 3)
Creating long-term popularity on the internet. However, it all
starts with good web design. Website design is the foundation
and beginning of a successful internet marketing strategy. It is
true that there are websites on the internet that are
unattractive but somehow seem to work. If there are aspects of
these websites that work, imagine how well they could do if they
simply followed basic design implementation tactics that
resulted in a good image as well as simply pushed information
out to the viewer.
These basics are essential for Tier 1 success:
- Good web design will complement and enhance the company image
and offline marketing campaign products creating a corporate
branding if done well.
- Easy, logical navigation that leads the viewer deeper and
deeper into the web of information provided by the website will
keep the visitor on your site longer and give you more time to
sell your products or services.
- Attractive but quick-loading graphics that are pleasing to the
eye and meaningful to the website will guide the viewer along
the route you decide is important for explaining what you offer.
- Keyword usage that is search engine-friendly depends on how
the keywords are utilized, the placement of the keywords, the
frequency of the most important keywords and their relevance to
the website.
- Website coding that is lean, clean and without errors will
keep the search engines happy and your viewer seeing exactly
what you intended to offer.
- Relevance of content to the theme of the site is essential. Be
concise, to the point and focus on your goals. If you have
multiple themes and offerings, consider multiple websites to
address the different markets, then tie each website back to the
others by linking.
- Changing content that changes frequently and stays fresh keeps
your viewer returning and prevents the search engines from
treating your website as if it were stale news. A stale site
will be ranked lower by the search engines.
Content is king — it’s all about content, content, content. But
how that content is presented is what makes the difference.

SEO Tips: How to Organize your Site for Fast Ranking
In my last keyword building article I wrote about how to select keywords that would generate the highest return with the least amount of work.
I demonstrated how employing advanced search strings and recording Overture data can be used to find keywords with very little competition and high search volumes. My conclusion was that by conducting keyword research in this manner, ranking for keywords becomes easier.
The next step in Keyword Building is learning how to organize a site around a keyword list for fast ranking and best results. The following is my strategy for doing so.
What You’ll Need
- A finalized list of keywords as well as their corresponding search volumes and number of competitors.
- Excel, or some other spreadsheet program.
- An understanding of the site’s industry, and which terms are semantically related.
- Enough SEO knowledge to decide which words from your list are “low competition.”
Low Competition Keywords
“Low competition” is a relative term. To illustrate why, search the term “Marietta, Georgia real estate” in Google. Here are the key numbers:
- 99 inachor and intitle competitors for the term
- 1,300 searches for the term each month
- 330.8 average backlinks for a top 10 result
- 4.2 average page rank of a top 10 result
Now here are some seemingly perplexing numbers regarding the 9th result:
- It has only 8 backlinks
- It also has a PR of 0
Meanwhile the 10th result has…
- 240 backlinks
- PR of 3
This raises the question of why the 10th result doesn’t rank higher than the 9th result, as well as why the 9th result is even on the first page. The answer is two-fold:
- The 9th result is a sub-page optimized singularly for that search term.
- The 9th result’s domain has roughly 1.1 million more backlinks than any other site on the SERP and is a subdomain of Yahoo.com.
For Yahoo, a term with 99 competitors and 1,300 searches every month is very “low competition.” However, because it has optimized a page for the search term, and is well trusted by Google, it easily ranks.
When organizing your keywords, picking out the “low competition” words is an integral part to driving traffic. Devote a page to every word that will easily rank from your list, optimizing the title tag, h1 tag and keyword density.
Remember, just as you look to Yahoo, thinking, “I wish I could rank for a word like that without having to link-build” so too will a site smaller than yours say of your “low competition” keyword pages.
High Competition Keywords
Keywords that will require a link-building strategy before ranking are considered “high competition.” High competition keywords should be broken down into semantically similar groups. Intuition is largely used to separate the keywords, but here are a few universal guidelines:
- Keep the groups under 6 words each.
- Group phrases together with more than one word in common.
- Check to see if two keywords return similar results in Google.
- No group should have only 1 keyword. Maximize the efforts of your link building.
Once the keywords have been semantically split, prepare an optimized title tag containing all of the keywords from that group. Also choose one word from each group which is the most important to get ranking. That term should be what is in the anchor text of your links when you begin a link building campaign.
Overall, this strategy will save you hours of fiddling and tweaking. Remember, SEO is no different than any other business process – it requires a plan. Practice these tips and you will see success.

Live From Madison Square Garden, SEO Vs Sem!
A great evening in Manhattan, a fantastic atmosphere in Madison Square Garden. Web business people is waiting this match for a long time. One side there is Search Engine Optimization and Search Engine Marketing on the other, both seems fit and there is desire to win on face. Last years both sides challenged to other but they never came to face to face. Before the match starts, lets take a short look to their career, strength and weaknesses.
Called SEO is short term of Search Engine Optimization. A milestone in web business since the search engines are the main source for web users before they buy services or products online. Finest and most trustable data source with their high indexing capacity and different logical algos working on the back round may depend on your rankings while results are listed. As most web users do not look much after the 3rd pages of results, web business owners are directly influenced. A web surfer can be your client if your web site is ranked at the top of search results but how you get listed at the top of a major engine? Even there are different algos powering the search engines the main theory is mostly same, simple algo stands on location and frequency. A crawl base search engines use spiders a web site and classifies with different principles to define the ranking. A fact about algo can be changed or improved for search quality. I’am sure all professionals will remember Florida Update on Google. Indeed it was an earchquake more than an update, many results were changed or disappeared on Google, some high rankings even lost from the index. Actually general Google algo is formulated as Relevance Score , PageRank , Local Score with other tweaking , tuning or filtering aspects. Main development point of a search algo is how much off page factors are important and their degrees take part in your algo. The theory on here is not giving much control to webmasters with on page factors .Other search engines do not use Page Rank since Page Rank is a trademark which belongs to Google. Avoiding any spamming , manipulation trials, over optimization or even cloaked content, engines are modifying or changing the degrees ,adding new variables on their algo time to time but all work done is to provide higher search relevancy and quality for users. (Relevance score is SEO efforts, Page Rank is Link building efforts for Google and Local Score is links from expert documents) As seen from the formula, SEO efforts only work on relevance score and vary your ranking 10% if you hired a SEO professional but this can increase 18% if your SEO is master level. I would like to talk about Yahoo and Live search engines’ secrets either but as mentioned they are my professional secrets for now, if you don’t know these, its impossible to get top results on Yahoo or Live.
Search Engine Marketing (Pay Per Click) is paid inclusions as seen Sponsored Results on engines based on pay per click. This marketing tool has been increased enormously in these years, even with expensive per click rates. In some keywords or phrases a click may cost 10€ ( online dating industry) whether visit converts to a lead or not. Ads buyers are ready to pay these high per click bills because SEM efforts bring more revenue than they spent. How this technology works while displaying the ads? Lets say few words about Google Adwords. Google has 2 different networks such as search network and content network. Search network means Google powered search results that you may see on any website with a search bar using Google’s search technology. Content network is different spidering technology and matching the search query and web site content. If you have a web site with high quality and useful content, you may apply and get involved Google’s Adsense network to make money. Google will classify your content and display related ads when a search query is matched as you have probably seen Ads by Google on web.
If SEO and SEM are powerful marketing tools which is the best and effective on sales conversion rates? This is the fatal question, both have advantages changing to the case, then lets compare:
A)In SEM, your web site does not need a change in most cases. If you want high conversion rates, a SEM professional should prepare high quality landing page is necessary only, not your entire design. On the other hand SEO may require some major design changes to get good spidering by engines.
B)PPC Ads charged when clicked only, displaying your ads will not cost you anything but poor Click Through Rates will increase your minimum per click costs. SEO visits are free of charge as visitors comes by clicking the natural search results from a search engine. Most visitors likely to trust a site they find on a search engine, they feel like natural results have been approved by the search engine.
C) SEM brings very quick results to analyze your campaign while SEO effects can take long time on ranking. On Adwords, just 15 minutes is enough to display your campaign on screen but SEO results may take up to 3 months on engine’s ranking.
D) ROI and Conversion rates are higher in SEM because you may design different landing pages according to your major products or services with price charts, feature comparison tables .However in SEO, you can not make these much because your most powerful PR page is your homepage so your sub pages which includes your product specification will not get listed higher than your main page.
E) Targeting is easy in SEM with campaign settings option. You may target national ,regional or international geographical areas depending on your shipping options. Google has features to promote your local business with accessing your business address or just selecting distribution area on Google Map. Another useful tool is matching options are enables you to select broad ,phrase,exacxt or negative matches while displaying your ads.When you prefer SEO, you can not prepare different target pages as they will be sub pages and will not get listed higher than your main page as above.
F) SEM limits you with your budget because your ads campaign will stop displaying when your daily, keywords or monthly budget is reached while SEO results longer even months after optimization work is done.
Finally who wins this match? Well, this depends on your expectation, budget and targets from your campaigns. As long years professional , I dont have a preference . Each business needs different campaigns, you may select to attract new clients in both tools while achieving your corporate targets.
Ladies and Gentlemen, unforgettable match is about to start in Madison Square Garden, please sit back and watch this.

Are Frames an Impediment to your Seo Campaign?
Frames are easier to eliminate than dynamic pages. Google assesses static pages much better than dynamic ones. Frames con fuse spiders, because each frame on a page behaves like a separate page in some ways.Google doesn’t penalize for dynamic generation, but the spider usually backs off from these portions of a site, for fear of generating huge numbers of pages.Google can’t index this page because it can’t read the words.In creating the overall page structure of your site, the question isn’t so much how long your pages should be,but how focused.
The Google spider responds well to the same site qualities that visitors value.When Google’s spider encounters an image on the page, it recognizes the filetype (.jpg or .gif in most cases), but it can’t see the image, interpret it, or recognize any text that might be part of the image. Ideally, these niched keywords are reflected in each page’s title, meta tags, and the text of incoming navigation links. It understands text. Another great rule of thumb: convey your information in text, not graphics.Each separate and topically focused page has its own name and location, so your navigation links act as incoming links to those pages, helping establish them in Google. The golden rule of optimization is this: do unto Google as your visitors would have you do unto them.
Frames are really not as hard as you think, once you get the basics down. The one thing you have to remember when using frames is that you will have to create several different pages just to have one page: this task will help your site to rank better in the search engines. Each frame is it’s own page and the main page is also it’s own page. Then you have the frame page that puts them all together into one page. The frame page is the page that people will come to. The main page and the frames will show up on the frame page as long as you tell them to.
As such, content design is closely associated with page design, which is likewise concerned with layout, the division of content, and the density of keywords per page.Page design is a broader consideration, including the overall look-and-feel of the page on which your content sits.Your content elements consist of the information on the page, all of which, ideally, is textual.Colors, tables, navigation menus, and links — these are all page design elements. It might be strange to think of “content design. Don’t create wild mixtures of incompatible foods.

Why Use Geographically Targeting in your SEO Campaigns!
Why use geographical-targeting in SEO?
Searchers are changing the way they search for information to find relevant results for specified location. Many sites which are currently indexed don’t have relevant information to help search engines in finding them ‘relevant’ to the location term, often because they don’t have their targeted geographic location for marketing mentioned on their site.
By including the targeted geographic location in the keywords used with an SEO campaign and the on page optimization done on a site, it is possible to have a dramatic and positive increase in top results, traffic, and sales.
It is very simple to include geographically-targeted terms and phrases with the keyphrases used for search engine optimisation and this will go a long way in increasing the revenue a website can generate.
Possible Disadvantages?
Alienation of future customers is always possible. If a searcher in the US is searching for simply “Search Engine Marketing” and your website happened to show up with Search Engine Marketing UK in its title, it is more than likely that the user will skip the website because it is targeting the UK.
This can also be seen as a positive point, as it actually helps in qualifying your traffic even more. It stopped a user visiting your website that would have found out that your services are UK specific and that they could not order their requirements from your website anyway.
Of course this could also be a negative aspect. If you ‘mainly’ target the UK but also want to offer your services to overseas clients, this may result in the loss of a potential sale.
Should geographical-targeting be used?
The answer depends only on the target audience or geographical location of the products or services offered.
Should you offer your products or services to a specific area or country, or you intend to only deal with local audience then yes, you should certainly be geographically-targeting your search engine optimization campaigns to increase traffic and sales.
The second situation can be that some of your products or services are available to many areas while others are not. In this instance simply use selective geographical-targeted optimization with each of the products or services sections.
And, if your target audience is not bounded by geographical regions, such as online services or products that have worldwide delivery, then more than likely geographical targeted optimization is not appropriate.
The key is that geographically-targeted SEO campaign can make a huge difference to a websites success. It is up to you to decide if it is an appropriate option for the products and services your website offers.
