Add You - 3 Important Elements of SEO, 4 That are Absolutely Essential
List Building is a crazy thing – and you should know by now that the money is in the list. To make big money online, you really need a list. You need to have people whom you can mail on a regular basis and remind them of your service or offering. You must be able to get in contact with people who want to buy your products but aren’t ready when they go to your web site the first time.They may be ready to buy in a month, but if they cannot remember your web site URL at that time, they will probably buy from somewhere else. But if you mail them twice a week and
Spiderability
Technological barriers can prevent your site from being adequately spidered by the search engines. If that's you then you can forget about getting any good rankings. Another client we recently signed has some severe spiderability issues. Let's say their domain name is http://www.domain.com. That's all well and good, but when you click any link the domain changes: https://www.domain.com:1234.
There are two problems there. First the obvious, :1234 is added onto the end of the domain. This is the same as sending the visitor to an entirel
Independent retailers are always looking for innovative ways to expand their revenue. At the end of the day, the bottom line is all they have to indicate if they were successful or not. The latest solution is less about the products for sale, and more about the tool customers use to carry products while they’re still in the store.Retail shopping baskets provide a variety of advertising options that will allow retailers to get some extra mileage out of money they’ve already spent. Most plastic retail shopping baskets have a blank section of solid plastic on ea
Quality Content
Let's not confuse this with lots of content. Filling your website with content is a great idea, but its not about the volume of the content but the quality of the it. People get caught up in adding pages and pages of content and end up with lots of pages of useless or repetitive junk. When adding content to your website here are a few questions you need to ask yourself:
- Will my current visitors/clients/customers find this information useful?
- Will new visitors find this information helpful?
- Is the content something that others would want to bookmark, link to and/or share with others?
If you can't answer yes to at least one of those questions then you're adding content for all the wrong reasons and its simply not anything worth having on your site. Think of your visitor and the overall value your content is providing them first.
Of course, once you've got great content on the site, it doesn't hurt to optimize it for keywords!
Title Tags
We signed a new client recently that came to us and didn't have any title tags on their pages. I've seen many content management systems in my day and the worst I've ever come across is those that duplicate the company name in the content across all the pages, but never have I seen one that wasn't even programmed to do that. This wasn't just a blank title tag (< title >< /title >), there was nothing here at all.
Can we all agree that awareness of the importance of the title tag is a minimum requirement to be considered a web professional?
Look, the title tag isn't just important for SEO, its important period. But for SEO, heck, this is what the search engines display as the clickable link in the search results. No title means there is nothing to click.
OK, but you also should optimize your title. Use your keywords. Unless you're a well-branded and well-known name, keep your business name out of (or at least at the end of) your title. Using your keywords in the title will not only help you rank well but it will also improve your click through rate. If you were searching for belts, which of the following would you click first?

The task of starting a business should be anything but intimidating. Think about it for a moment. When you were 5 or 6 years old you hunted around the home for some old cardboard, a horizontal surface (usually a card table), some paint or a marker and of course your mom. Within less than an hour you had a lemonade stand up and running – your very own sole proprietorship. Sure, things have changed in scale for you but the fundamentals of getting your business up and running are more challenged by your adult psychology than by your local laws and regulations no mat

One of the most powerful tools in Internet marketing is the ability to write ads that sell. Ad writing is an art that not necessarily everyone can master. While some people weave magic with their words effortlessly, there are others that find it difficult to string a single sentence together for an ad.Most large business houses can afford to hire out their ad writing requirements to professionals, while smaller businesses often do not have that option. This does not mean you cannot write great ads that invoke a response; you just need some ad writing tips to get

There are two problems there. First the obvious, :1234 is added onto the end of the domain. This is the same as sending the visitor to an entirely different site. The other issue has the same result, the http changes to https. While the secure https is the default for the entire site.
These are pretty extreme examples but there are other things that can prevent spiders from indexing your pages. These things are improper navigation links, unintentional blocking using meta tags or the robots.txt file, too many parameters in your dynamic pages, etc. Bottom line is that you need to identify and correct any such spidering issues if you want your site to perform.
Keyword Research
Too much can't be said about the need for good quality keyword research. This is the starting point and if you get off track here, you'll find yourself way off base later having lost time and money in significant proportions. Don't neglect keyword research. Do it as thoroughly and comprehensively as possible.
You may not be able to do full keyword optimization into every page, or target every relevant keyword for your site, but taking the time and energy to paying attention to the issues above will go a long way towards developing a search engine friendly website.
