If you’re approached by an online marketing agency claiming they can get you a Top 10 search engine ranking “overnight”, turn around and run away!

That’s the advice a prominent Arizona SEO Company offers to business owners who are looking to get to the top of the search engine results quickly.

Search on any term in Google and you’re likely to get thousands of web addresses returned to you. And, if you’re like the average surfer, you’ll never click below the Top 10 listings. That’s because nearly 100% of anyone’s search requirements are fully satisfied by web sites appearing on the first of the many search engine result pages (SERPs). If you’re not on the first page, you might as well not be there at all.

The only way to earn and keep a Top 10 rating, other than buying your way to the top by bidding outrageous amounts of money for a laundry list of key words, is to use natural search engine optimization techniques.

Often called “organic search engine optimization”, these natural search engine optimization techniques work because the online marketing agency, or search engine optimization firm, using them creates pages of web content that are specially designed to attract search engine “spiders”.

These pages are optimized with just the right blend of targeted key words, proper HTML tags, and a page/web linking strategy that search engines look for.

Natural search engine optimization is part art and part science and a lot of online marketing experts are getting it wrong. That’s why our contact at a noted Chandler Web Firm recommends that you check out the references that a search engine optimization firm provides before you sign any agreement.

Besides checking references, which can always be faked, ask the online marketing agency for a list of key words that they have achieved Top 10 ratings for. Then search on those terms and see if any of the web sites in the Top 10 match the reference list you were given.

Finally, our Arizona SEO Company friend says that you should beware of any search engine optimization company that cannot provide a couple of local references. After all, how good of a marketing agency can a company be if they claim to be a Scottsdale marketing company and they don’t have any clients in their home town?

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.

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.

The internet allows you to reach consumers all over the world, but a business owner should not discount the business that comes from your own backyard. Local business is very important to those who own stores as well as those that provide services. It is important that your internet marketing strategy properly addresses your local business as well.

More and more consumers rely on the internet in order to find out information. You need to set up your website so that it contains the information that a local customer would find valuable. Your hours of operation should be easy to locate on the site. You should also include detailed directions on how to arrive at your business. You can even set up interactive maps and direction finders to enhance the user’s experience. All of your contact information should be provided as well.

When you are working on getting your website recognized, you need to pay attention to search engine optimization. You will want your business to come up in the search results for your local area. Your website should contain keywords that are related to what your business does and where you are located. A website that is tailored for Boston residents would need to have a Boston internet marketing strategy and utilize Boston SEO. Likewise, a website that is tailored for Boston would need to have an internet marketing strategy that is targeted towards Boston. A paln for Boston Internet marketing outlines the components for both SEO and Boston web design. There are many ways to ensure your site is search engine optimized. There are also experts in the field that can help set up your site in order to get the best results. You should also look to see if there are sites that your link could be placed on. For instance, does your town have a website? Does the chamber of commerce have a listing of local businesses online? How about local radio or television station websites? Do they have a sponsorship option? Your goal is to get your website shown to as many local people as possible in the hopes they will turn into your clients.

“Look at a day when you are supremely satisfied at the end. It’s not a day when you lounge around doing nothing; it’s when you’ve had everything to do, and you’ve done it.”

-Lord Acton

You will also want to ensure that your website name is included in all of your local marketing. It should be printed on business cards, flyers, menus and price lists. You should include your website link in all emails you send and on all invoices or receipts you pass out. Once you have an effective internet marketing strategy that targets the local consumers, you should notice an increase in your local business.
