SEO Services: What are They?
SEO services address the inherent mechanism of the world’s most popular online search tool, the search engine. Access to the secrets of a search engine assists companies to improve the search rankings of their websites, helping boost traffic and attract relevant traffic. Quality traffic can significantly improve a company’s conversion rates, fueling sales and profitability. With Internet surfers using search engines as their primary online information source, SEO services can help companies tap into a large portion of their potential market.
SEO Services: What to Include?
Whenever one thinks of SEO services for a website, the only service that comes to mind is researching for keywords that are appropriate for the business. These keywords are the words and phrases used by web surfers to search for a product or service and act as the first step to attracting traffic. However, SEO services encompass much more than simply researching for the appropriate keywords. Whenever an organization hires an SEO company, it can make use of any of the following services to improve rankings on search engines and enhance visibility, popularity, sales and growth:
Site review and modification: These services involve reviewing and refining content, website architecture and backend site coding in order to make every page more compatible with search engines.
RSS Feeds: Search engines such as Google prefer RSS feeds. Creating an RSS feed, with the targeted keyword in the title of the feed, and submitting them to as many RSS aggregators as possible would significantly help improve the rankings of a website.
Blogs: Blogs, especially posted at Blogger, Squidoo and WordPress, are given preference by search engine like Google. Creating blogs, the content of which is focused on target keywords, and posting them on popular blog sites can have a highly favorable impact on the rankings of a website. These blogs can also be converted into RSS feeds and submitted to make the maximum impact.
Incoming links: Incoming links can be created through active forums and Yahoo Answers. Posting keyword-targeted articles on active forums and asking questions on Yahoo Answers, while focusing on target keywords, would significantly boost the popularity of a website. Each article posted in various forums must have a link that can redirect readers to the website.

What is the best way to configure your index page for SEO?
Given that backlinking is very important for Search Engine Optimization and that most backlinks go to the homepage (index page), should I put all my keyword phrases I want to target on my index page? For instance if I had a web site that sold pet supplies and I want people to search for "dog collars", "cat litter" and "dog bowls" how should I best configure my Web site so that people searching for all 3 will have my website come up first in the search engines? Also it seems my index page should be optimized for the word "pet supplies" or "pet supply store" but those search terms are most competitve to place for, so I may be better off optimizing my Web page for less competitive terms like "dog collars" or "cat litter". Should I then optimize my index page for the lesser competitve keywords even though "pet supplies" is the more relevant keyword phrase that describes my business on the index page? In short should I change my title, meta keyword descriptions, and header tags on my index page to reflect "dog collars" rather than "pet supplies"?
Hi there,
The thing a lot of people get confused about is that SEO is not done on a SITE level, it’s done on a PAGE level.
Let me explain. You’re right, most ppl link to your index/homepage. It’s going to almost impossible for you to optimize your homepage, which is just ONE page, for a bunch of different keywords effectively.
Here’s how you should structure your site. Make your homepage your most broad, general themed page. So, it should be talking about pet supplies in general. Optimize your homepage for a more general, more competitive term.
Then you have subpages on your site, one page about dog supplies, one page about cat supplies, or whatever. Then optimize your subpages for the more specific, and less competitive terms.
The reason it’s going to be pretty much impossible to truly optimize your index page for more specific terms like "cat litter" or "dog collars" is because the content on your index page is more general, not specifically about cat litter or dog collars. So your keyword density will not work out. People going to your homepage will be more disappointed that it’s filled with extra info they don’t care about, since they were only looking for cat litter, not dog collars.
Your traffic will be much more qualified (i.e. more targeted and higher converting) if you send them to their respective subpages. Ppl searching for "dog collars" are brought to the dog collars page, rather than the general pet supplies homepage. Remember, each PAGE can be optimized for a specific keyword. Don’t try to optimize your index page for everything.
So no, don’t change your meta, title, header, etc. on your homepage. If you do that, then suddenly your metadata is all about dog collars, when really the content is about pet supplies in general. So all the cat litter people will not be interested, and you lose out on that.
Rather, set up subpages and optimize the subpages for the more specific and less competitive keywords.
Homepage – broader, generic, more competitive keyword w/ highest search volume
Subpage #1 – dog collars
Subpage #2 – cat litter
etc.

What is on page and off page in seo?
Website optimization is the first step in achieving high search engine ranking. The search engines use mathematical algorithms to determine how to rank sites in their natural results.

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.

How can I get better organic traffic into my arcade site?
I’ve done traffic exchanges, directory submitting, SEO, article writing, E-mail refering, premium link exchanging. So far link referal has helped the most. It grabs about 20 uniques a day if I spend 10 minutes on their site, but I’m out of idea’s. Since google is updating their Pagerank soon I need to really get noticed quickly. This is a serious question, but is there anything else that I can do that will easily bring in organic traffic?
There’s really no magic formula. Just keep trying to do all the things you’ve been doing – again and again (starting first with the most effective).
Getting traffic is a combination of a lot of things. The key to success is to create great content that visitors want to use, search engines will love and other websites will naturally link to. Of course, it’s easier said than done.
Here are some shoestring marketing ideas that can help you get the visitors you need at the least cost possible:
1. Create the best content you can with the best products you can possibly offer. Your content is your best advertisement – if visitors love your content, then they will go back and spread the word to others.
2. Make it easy for users to recommend your site. Viral marketing is very important — and easy to tap on the Web. But give your users the tools. Get a Recommend this Site script from websites such as cgiscripts.com and similar directories of scripts. Some even go as far as giving incentives to those who recommend the site to their friends. If only 10 people go to your site, but these 10 people invite 10 more – that’s additional traffic that you get for FREE!
Recommend Site Scripts (various) http://php.resourceindex.com/Complete_Scripts/Website_Promotion/Recommend_Site/
Big Nose Bird Recommend this Site http://bignosebird.com/carchive/birdcast.shtml
CGI Resource Index http://cgi.resourceindex.com/Programs_and_Scripts/Perl/Website_Promotion/Recommend_Site/
Hostscripts http://www.hotscripts.com/PHP/Scripts_and_Programs/Site_Recommendation/index.html
3. Rank well in the search engines (organic search results, not the pay per click). SEs can be a big source of traffic. The key is to create the best content in your niche. If you have good content, other websites will gladly link to you and offer your site as a resource to their audience. Check the on-page factors and be sure to get linked from authority sites in your topic area.
If you are going to read only one piece on search engine optimization, I suggest you read Brett Tabke of WebmasterWorld.com’s "Successful Site in 12 Months with Google Alone: 26 steps to 15k a day." http://www.webmasterworld.com/forum3/2010.htm
4. Send out press releases. While outfits charge as much as $650 per release, there are free press release submission places on the Web. Press releases allow you to (a) attract media attention; (b) get more back links to your website without sending each website an email request; and (c) get more visibility especially if your press release gets in Google News or Yahoo News.

5. Submit articles. Write articles and submit them to websites accepting author submissions. You get exposure for your business; establishes you as an authority in your field, and allows you to get backlinks for your website. If 50 websites publish your article and it contains a link back to your website, then you easily get 50 links from a single article. The more links you have, the greater your chances for increasing your search engine rankings.
Here is a comprehensive list of where to submit your articles http://answers.yahoo.com/question/;_ylt=AhzreGmnCUicOoyedqypscUjzKIX?qid=1006022407481
6. Improve your conversion. Getting visitors is one thing; getting them to buy your products is a whole different story. Read the article " How To Sell More on the Web: 30 Tips To Increase Conversion Rates For An Ecommerce Site " http://www.powerhomebiz.com/092006/ecommerce.htm for tips on how to improve your conversion rates.
7. Post a link to your site for free where it is allowed (always read the Terms of Use). Examples are:
Craigslist http://www.craigslist.com
Google Base http://base.google.com
Classifieds for Free http://www.classifiedsforfree.com/…
Text Link Exchange http://www.txtswap.com/

What impact does “page bloat” have on Google rankings?
Deepesh from New York asks:
“What impact does ‘page bloat’ have on Google rankings? Most of the winners in SEO seem to have very simple pages (very few images, HTML-only design) – sometimes to the detriment to the user in a poorly designed page.”
