Website Optimisation
Achieving a high ranking in the organic search engine results is possibly the most cost effective marketing vehicle for small businesses.
Firstly it is free advertising.
Secondly your website works 24/7 to sell and promote your business.
Then to top it all off you have the added benefit of increased trust and credibility because independent studies have revealed that visitors are more inclined to trust the businesses that they find through natural search listings, as opposed to the websites listed in the paid advertisements.
What is Website Optimisation?
When Google (or any search engine) crawls your website they look for key indicators to determine the content of your site. Website optimisation is not about tricking Google, it is about helping Google understand what your website is all about so they can help searchers find the content they are looking for.
Google uses a complex algorithm to determine the relevance of your website for related keywords. They consider both the website content and the number of inbound links to rank the importance. As such the optimisation process can be broken down into two separate components: On-site optimisation and Off-site optimisation.
The on-site optimisation includes all the on-site tactics such as meta tags, image tags, keyword density, header tags and page titles.
The off-site optimisation process involves getting other websites to link to your website.
On-site Search Engine Optimisation
Over the years we have developed an extensive list of factors that we have found improve the perceived relevance of your site in the eyes of Google. The on-site optimisation is a long and detailed process. Fortunately it only needs to be done once.
During the on-site optimisation process we will implement all factors relevant to your site / industry and give you a set of simple instructions to follow for all future content you add.
Off-site Search Engine Optimisation
Getting links to your website is an ongoing process. The number of links needed depends largely upon the competition of your keywords.
