			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I have clients that call and ask me to develop an SEO strategy for them. Many times they ask certain questions that I thought it would be nice to answer by writing an article.1. Can you guarantee me a front page Google listing? No. And neither can anyone else no matter what they say in their ads. They see these ads all over the web that promise top listings in Google in just 30 days and such. Any company who makes this claim is a scam.<br />
Yes I said scam. If someone who owns an SEO company and is using this type of ad wants to debate this with me I&#8217;d be happy to set up a web conference and record it for everyone to view on my blog. Come prove me wrong and everyone will see.2. How long will it take to get my website on the front page of Google for my keywords? I would need a crystal ball to answer that question. The number of variables is astronomical.<br />
The number of competitors for your keywords, how well those competitors are doing with their own SEO campaigns, and how long your competitors have been online or age of their domain name, are just a few of the factors we have to include in predicting how well you might do in the SERPs.<br />
No one can give you a timetable, likely not even someone who works for Google.3. How long will I need to do SEO? As long as you do business on the web, you will need to continue with search engine optimization and search engine marketing.<br />
SEO is not a one-time deal. It is an ongoing process. You will always need fresh content. You will always need more relative inbound links. You will always need someone that will stay on top of changes in the market and to respond to results.<br />
Let&#8217;s say we do your SEO and in 3 months we get you to #3 in Google for your top key phrase. Wow! We did our job! You don&#8217;t need us anymore right? Sure, right up to the time your competitors ramp up their SEO campaign just as you did and overcome your position in the search engines.<br />
If you own an offline company and you do an ad campaign on TV, radio, and in the newspaper and it brings in a lot of traffic to your store for the month of July, do you stop advertising in August? I would think the answer might be no. So why would you stop an SEO campaign that is having success?<br />
SEO is a business expense you need to factor into your budget if you want to do business online. It is as simple as that. No ifs ands or buts. SEO is essential to your online success.4. How long will it take you to come up with an SEO strategy for me? There are a lot of SEO companies who will give you a plan right now. They have set packages. They do A, B, and C for x number of dollars and they will throw in D, E, and F for just a few dollars more!<br />
The problem is that there is no one-size-fits-all SEO plan for anyone. SEO companies who tell you to choose from their preset SEO packages are not going to do the best job they can for you. They are trying to make a sale. They know that having preset packages helps them close more sales and that is exactly why they have them ready for you.<br />
Every client is unique. Every website is unique. You face a different set of obstacles than other clients. You have a different budget to work with. The level of your competition is different. The number of inbound links you already have is different than the next client. The content on your website is different. I have been doing this for 13 years and have yet to find two clients who were in the same exact situation.<br />
As a result, a good SEO Professional will create a plan that fits your needs and that fits into your budget. He or she has to prioritize each task depending on your exact situation.<br />
It takes time to research what keywords you should be targeting, research how well you rank for those keywords currently, research the competition you have for each of those keywords, and figure out the best way to help you with the budget you have set aside for SEO.<br />
You may have to wait a week or more to see what the roadmap we create for you will look like. Many clients do not have the patience and end up buying some preset SEO package somewhere. I usually hear back from that same person 3 months later after nothing has improved and they have even less money for SEO.<br />
Give us the time to do the research and we will create a plan that works.<br />
I&#8217;ll address more frequently asked questions in another article. Right now I have a roadmap to build for a client before they wake up and drive to their office this morning. Until then . . . </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The results of online marketing campaign largely depend upon the search engine ranking of website. Though a website may seem beautiful, flawless, but if it doesn’t attract expected traffic, even the best marketing tricks will not deliver results. Hence, SEO pricing emerges as the most important issue while deciding overall online marketing cost because even if, you are satisfied with the existing number of website visitors, updated SEO always help you to get the better return of your online mark                                                                                                                                       Factors concerned with SEO pricing and online marketing cost: </p>
<p>  </p>
<p>1. Exiting rank of the website – If the website contains too many frames or is written in Flash or is poorly designed or doesn’t bear adequate incoming links, SEO pricing will be more. </p>
<p>2. Targeted Keywords &#8211; Selection of proper keywords plays an important role in SEO. Selection of more competitive keywords increases SEO pricing.  </p>
<p>3. Target Market &#8211; If you have planned to hit the global market, more SEO efforts will be required to place the website among the top ten global search results. Kind of product or services being offered also affect SEO pricing. If your product or services are used by relatively few people, your website may be easily optimized, so low SEO pricing will cut down overall online marketing cost. </p>
<p>4. Nature of competitor – If your competitors get their websites optimized too frequently to get the better rank; you will require consistent SEO services. This will boost up online marketing cost because in this case SEO pricing will be too high. </p>
<p>5. Your involvement in SEO – If you know the basics of SEO, you can reduce online marketing cost considerably because in this case you will need SEO services only for highly technical jobs.  </p>
<p>  </p>
<p>How to select best SEO service: </p>
<p>Nowadays, when every one is slashing down the marketing cost, you can&#8217;t afford to spend for unjustified SEO pricing. While selecting the SEO service for your online marketing campaign, consider the following issues:  </p>
<p>** What is included and excluded in offered SEO service? </p>
<p>** Whether you are being guaranteed for measurable result? </p>
<p>** How much time does SEO company need to prove improvement?  </p>
<p>** Who will manage SEO and what will the extra charge for SEO management? </p>
<p>** Has the SEO agency worked successfully in past with the client of your category?  </p>
<p>  </p>
<p>How to recover online marketing cost: </p>
<p>Success of any online marketing campaign depends upon perfect blending of techniques and tactics. To recover online marketing cost, besides maintaining SE rank it is also must to keep a continuous vigil on the traffic, response, order conversion ratio and segment of the visitors. Just the selection of highest SEO pricing offer doesn’t guarantees the success of online marketing campaign. You need to mange SEO campaign professionally. To hire the specialists for this purpose is also not a bad idea; this little increase of online marketing cost will improve the results manifold. </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Getting you started with Search Engine OptimizationThis article is for the new web designer or business owner who wants to achieve a good placement for their web site in the search engines but doesn’t know how. We are going to look at 7 Basics of SEO below. These aren’t the only things you will want to know about SEO, but these are the areas you should learn about first. I have the topics listed in the order that you should approach them. Some topics will only take you a minute, some will take a little longer (cleaning up HTML code), and others will become an ongoing process (Keywords). But, after reading through this list you should have a good handle on where to start and where to proceed next.SEO Basic 1. Let’s start off with a definition. If you don’t understand what SEO is then you will not be able to properly optimize your site. SEO stands for “Search Engine Optimization” and is the process by which you Optimize (adjust) your web site so that it is positioned well in the search engines (Google, Yahoo, MSN, etc). This is not the same thing as designing a site so that it attracts customers and entices them to buy. That is a completely different discussion. SEO is what you do specifically on your site to improve your Search Engine Position. If you do a search on Google for any search term you will be presented with a list of links. At the top of the page and along the right side will be PPC (Pay-Per-Click) links where someone pays an amount per click to get positioned. Basically with PPC, the more you pay the better your position. Most people only glance at these listings. You don’t need SEO to get one of these positions, just lots of money. The main section of page contains the “natural” or “organic” listings. These links are listed in the order that Google has determined best fit your search query, with the best match listing first. There are only 10 listings per page and most people will only look at the 1st page, and maybe the 2nd. So your site needs to be listed within the top 10 and at the very worst within the top 20 to get any useful exposure. This is where SEO comes in. With SEO you will be adjusting your sites code so that the search engine will rank your site high up in the listings. This can be a daunting process as there may be tens of thousands of sites competing for the same top listing. One trick here is to aim your pages at less popular search terms to get higher placement. It is much better to be on the top of page one for a term that gets 1000 searches per month than to be on page three for a search term that gets millions of visits (almost no one looks at page three or beyond).SEO Basic 2. Your web site has to be search engine friendly, so fix any bad code. The search engines send out “spiders” or “bots” that look over the whole internet, cataloging and categorizing web pages that they come across. If the search engine runs into trouble getting through your pages then it will either rank your page poorly, or worse skip your site all together. Making your site Search Engine Friendly means having the code easily accessible (no frames), not having mistakes in the code (check the code for errors), and guiding the search engine through your web site (good navigation).So, try to steer away from complicated coding as much as possible. Things like Flash web sites look great, but they can cause search engine problems. Check your site for any coding errors, this is fairly easy to do with web design programs like Dreamweaver which will do this for you automatically. And, plan on having a text based navigation bar on every page. This is usually placed at the bottom of the pages. You may also want to consider having a “Site Map” page in your web site with easy to follow text based links to all of your important pages. Search Engines will look for a Site Map page and will use that to navigate a web site if available.SEO Basic 3. By far the #1 Most Important Aspect of SEO is: Keywords. Keywords are the terms you type into a search engine to find interesting web sites to look at. You need to know what search terms people are likely to use to find your web site and then use those terms as your Keywords on your site. Start by making a list of all the keyword combinations you can think of that you would use to find your web site. Try them all on a search engine and see what you come up with. You now need to see how these search terms perform on the web and what other possible search terms could be used for the same sites. There are several tools on the internet to help you with this research. A great free tool is available at Google:https://<a href="http://0060ekqlpzfvgv35tj33230m1b.hop.clickbank.net/?tid=AU"title="Domainate Adwords" >adwords</a>.google.com/select/KeywordToolExternalGoogle will let you type in a search term then give you a list of similar search terms, how often they were searched in the previous month and some advertiser comparison figures for Google Adwords. This allows you to quickly find additional keywords and to see how well they perform. As we mentioned in SEO Basic 1 a good idea is to optimize your site for a less frequently used keyword or keyword combination so that you can achieve a higher placement. The Google Keyword Tool will help you figure this out.Look for only 1 or two keywords to focus on in any given page. Many times keywords will overlap, so you can focus on a longer keyword combination and cover many other keyword combinations at the same time. For instance if you are designing a page to sell Photoshop Training you can optimize for this keyword phrase “Adobe Photoshop Training Video Sets” This will not only give you optimized performance for this keyword combination but also for these other keywords and combinations as well:AdobePhotoshop TrainingAdobe PhotoshopPhotoshop TrainingAdobe Photoshop TrainingPhotoshop Training VideoAdobe Photoshop Training VideoPhotoshop Training Video SetsSo try to come up with a multiple keyword combination that will contain several other keyword combinations as well.Once you know what keywords you want to use you are ready to place those keywords on your page. The main places you want to use the keywords are:In the title of the page (title meta tag)In the description of the page (description meta tag)In the first sentence on the pageIn all of the image alt tagsIn links to and from the pageWell represented in the body text of the pageThe keyword meta tag is no longer looked at by the search engines, but I still put my keywords in that tag so that I have an easy reference for my own use when doing SEO.Make sure you Pick the right keywords, and make sure they cover more than 5% of the word usage on the page. An easy way to get more keywords onto a page is by using lists such as:We carry:• Adobe Photoshop Training Video Sets for Educators• Adobe Photoshop Training Video Sets for Students• Adobe Photoshop Training Video Sets for Business• Adobe Photoshop Training Video Sets for Hobbyists Keep in mind that your page text should still be user friendly. If you use your keywords too frequently or in strange ways on your page, it may rank better in the search engines, but it will drive away visitors. Who wants to read a poorly written page?SEO Basic 4. &#8220;Don&#8217;t try anything funny&#8221;. There are lots of “tricky” things you can do to cram more keywords into a page without annoying your visitors. The problem is that the search engines know about these tricks and will penalize your site if you use them. So don’t do any of the following or you may find your web site disappear completely from the search engine listings.White letters on white background, or any other similar text coloring trick. Even using a very light gray text on a white background, or very dark gray text on a black background can get you bumped from the search engines.Don’t repeat your keyword over and over again. People used to do things like this at the top or bottom of their pages: Photoshop Photoshop Photoshop Photoshop Photoshop. The worked in the early days of search engine optimization, but no longer. You should also not try this trick in alt tags, image names, links or other places in your code. The search engines will spot this and you will be penalized.Don’t put keywords into comment tags like this: . Also don’t put keywords in hidden form fields like this: : . The search engines will spot these and mark you down accordingly. For the same reason don’t create any hidden links as a place to hide keywords.Even though putting keywords into image names and alt tags is a great idea, don’t think that you can just create a bunch of clear gif images sized at 1&#215;1 and fill those with keywords. The search engines are very good at spotting tricks like this as well.So, use your keywords appropriately, don’t try to sneak one past the search engines and you should do just fine. Just keep in mind, if you think that you need to hide the keywords to trick the search engine you can rest assured that they have already thought of that and will do their best to devalue your site accordingly if you use these “black hat” tricks.SEO Basic 5. All pages should have links to other pages. The main search engines like links. They like outside sites linking into yours but they also like links within your site going to other pages. So in this case having more pages can be useful. Also since you now have all these pages that you are linking to it gives you a great place to use some more keywords. Make sure that your links include your keywords. But, and this could have been in section 4 above, don’t create “doorway pages” that redirect you to another page. It used to be common SEO practice to create lots (hundreds) of doorway pages, each one stuffed with specific keywords, all of which would redirect the visitor to the actual page they were looking for. This would give your site lots of pages, with lots of internal links and would allow you to tightly optimize these doorway pages for specific keywords, but . . .  the search engines have gotten wise to this trick and now penalize the use of redirect pages. So don’t use redirects unless you absolutely need to. And never use doorway pages.SEO Basic 6. Only try to optimize a page for one or two keyword groups. More than that just dilutes your keyword ratio. The search engines will analyze your web page to determine which words are used as keywords. They do this by looking at the title, the description, the page heading and the word use on the page. They will then determine how relevant your keywords are to your page. So if you try to use too many different keywords on a page it will only bring down the percentage of any individual keyword or group for that page. It is better to optimize for a larger keyword group as discussed above than to try to optimize a page for a lot of individual keywords that can’t be easily used on one sentence. If you need to have a page optimized for several different, unrelated keywords you are better off creating several different pages and re-writing the body text on each page to match the keywords you are optimizing for. This will make each page relevant for the specific keyword and will get a better placement in the search engines.SEO Basic 7. Be patient. Even with a perfectly optimized web site it can take several months for it to rise in the search engine standings. I usually recommend waiting at least 90 days and up to 6 months to see how well a web page is doing in the search engines. Also, even though you have gone to great lengths to target a specific keyword or keyword combination keep in mind that the search engines aren’t required to agree with you. So when checking your standings look at several different search terms that you discovered in your research and see how well your page is placing. Hopefully you will find that your chosen keywords are getting your page listed the way you want, showing that your SEO has worked properly.If you find that your page is ranking better for a different keyword, you should examine your page code to see why and make adjustments as needed. Maybe your page is placing higher for a keyword combination you weren’t focusing on, but it is still a good combination for your goals. This gives you an ideal opportunity to go with that new combination to achieve even higher placing.So, get started right now on your SEO. The longer you wait, the longer it will be before your web site is showing well up in the search engines.In closing:There is a lot more to SEO than just these 7 quick points, but this will get you started on the right path. Go through these steps and your web pages will be well positioned for any other SEO you may want to perform on your site in the future. </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The SEO&#8217;s Blood, Sweat and Tears </p>
<p>Being in the business of search engine marketing I sometimes get overwhelmed with the sheer number of hours necessary to fully market a site online. Actually, I can&#8217;t even say there is such a thing as &#8220;fully&#8221; marketing a site online as there are truly an endless number of marketing options. There are so many things that can be done while also maintaining a budget both for the client and for the time involved. </p>
<p>Ninety percent of the online marketing services we provide are based on time. There are a few expenditures (directory submissions, etc) but most of the cost associated with our SEO services is hourly time going into each project: writing, analyzing, tweaking, optimizing, communicating, reporting, etc. Largely, I think it&#8217;s hard for any client to fully understand all of this, especially those looking for something &#8220;less expensive.&#8221; </p>
<p>When it comes to purchasing an SEO package, it all comes down to how much are you willing to pay per hour, and how many hours do you want to invest in your website&#8217;s promotion efforts? While many SEOs charge a package price, how much goes into that package is determined by how many hours of their time the SEO is willing to invest, and for how much. When you consider the SEO package as a matter of hours, $1000/month will buy you anywhere from 5-30 hours of work each month. Those willing to put in 30 hours for $1000 either have very low overhead or are not skilled enough to charge more per hour. Those putting in 5 hours per $1000 either have high overhead or are exceptionally skilled, or both. </p>
<p>But still, 5 hours, or even 10 hours per month spent on an optimization campaign isn&#8217;t a whole lot once you break down everything that goes into it. Here is a simple breakdown of what I would consider the average high-quality SEO campaign: </p>
<p>  </p>
<p>  </p>
<p>  </p>
<p>Depending on how the SEO charges, the bulk of this can be an upfront payment for a predetermined number of pages with little ongoing maintenance, or it can be spread out into monthly payments and include ongoing research, optimization and link development. I grouped a lot of little things together above for brevity, but spending 20 hours a month (averaged over 12-months) isn&#8217;t all that hard to achieve. </p>
<p>Assuming the average (quality) SEO firm charges $150/hour, you&#8217;re looking at $3000/month or $36,000 for a year. That&#8217;s no small chunk of change for the average small business. Not every SEO firm (including us) charges fees that high, but rarely is one person able to perform every aspect of an SEO campaign without hiring staff or sub-contracting out, and good specialized sub-contractors will charge anywhere from $35-$150 or more per hour. For the SEO to make any money they have to charge at least that much, if not more. </p>
<p>Undoubtedly, not every SEO will agree with all of my numbers above, but even looking at it conservatively, $10,000/year doesn&#8217;t garner the client a lot of time put into their SEO campaign. As I said before, it all comes down to time. Every SEO must figure out how best to invest their allotted hours. Will more be spent on text development than link building? Does usability/conversion analysis take a higher priority over anything else? </p>
<p>For us SEOs, sometimes the hard part is convincing clients to invest in our time (package costs), but in reality we should be convincing them to invest in their website. It&#8217;s not how much money the client is paying for SEO, it&#8217;s how much time their money will allow the SEO to invest in their website. </p>
<p>The Spend-Cautious Client </p>
<p>I&#8217;m as cost conscious as the next guy, but there comes a point when pinching pennies is counter productive&#8230; especially in business. When I look at various on- and off-line marketing campaigns, I don&#8217;t look at the cost so much as I look at the overall return. Sure, a big price tag makes me think long and hard before investing, but what I want to know is, will I get my return on that investment? </p>
<p>The bigger the price tag the harder it is to jump into an unknown investment. This is just as true with SEO as with any form of marketing, but perhaps even more true with SEO because the return is not instant. SEO requires a long-term investment and the money you pour into it today will not be returned for several months. This is even more true for new businesses just getting online. </p>
<p>The Internet has attracted many new business owners who thought (some rightfully and some not) that they could simply build a website and start making money in their spare time. Many people have become successful and probably a great deal more have not. </p>
<p>Any business, on- or off-line, requires investment. Investment of both time and money. </p>
<p>  </p>
<p>  </p>
<p>  </p>
<p>Obviously, the best position is to have both time and money. And if you want to optimize your site for search engines, you need both and you must be prepared to spend both as well. Look at your options, but don&#8217;t consider pricing only. Price (high or low) is NOT an indicator of a more successful campaign. </p>
<p>Costly marketing will still fail, if the business plan is not solid. Cheap marketing will usually only produce cheap results. </p>
<p>It&#8217;s not how much it costs, it’s the ROI (return on investment) that you get for your money. Look at the long-term goals. If you really want to succeed with optimization be prepared to invest, and like any good investment, allow it to fully mature. Only then will your search marketing campaign prove successful. </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Today, it has become very difficult to imagine the existence and survival of a business without a website. A website has now become a powerful means to generate more business than any other medium of advertising. And, if you intend to sell products online, it is important that you look for a good SEO company that provides good customer support, has effective tracking and enabled client protection features.Choosing the right search engine optimization, or SEO company is the most important step in increasing your online presence. It is considered to be a crucial venture for your online marketing strategy. An unethical company can cause problems that waste both your advertising budget and time. Services rendered by such companies may prevent your website from getting listed in a search engine.If may be difficult to judge and identify SEO experts if you are not a specialist yourself. The following tips help you identify an ethical SEO company to enhance your online business.1. Do your homework before beginning a search for a SEO company. Contact lots of firms through phone or internet to get information about their SEO services. Try to learn as much as possible from the companies willing to provide more and more information. Prepare a list of the SEO companies from whom you wish to seek the services.2. Go through the website of each company. A thorough study of their website helps you analyze and identify the expertise and proficiency of a service provider. Remember a good SEO provider will have his own site built with utmost care and with great perfection. Also, look for their search engine ranking.3. When studying about a service provider, find out how old the site is? How long the company is in business? Does it have marketing experience background and long-term (satisfied) clients? Did the company partner with any other SEO company? Check out for the company&#8217;s portfolio; review references, and know the tools and techniques they would employ in the optimization of your website. Find out if they could provide you with proper research and analysis of your competitors&#8217; websites. This helps you to know why your competitors rank high.4. A good SEO company will provide client references and testimonials to back up their proficiency. Find out how the websites of their former clients are ranking; also send emails to the webmasters to find if they were really happy with the company&#8217;s services.5. Finally, when you had selected a SEO provider, don&#8217;t enter into a long-term (say a year) agreement. Go for smaller services initially, and once satisfied with their services and response times, go for other services.6. Before you enter into an agreement with a SEO company, make sure that you are completely aware of various search engine optimization services you have opted for, and know exactly how the service provide will be delivering such services.7. Ask for specific tactics and techniques the service provider intends to use to optimize your website. Find out how the keyword research and other processes would be done. Ask for copies of the work done reports to assess the amount and quality of the work done, and also to measure the success rate. Remember, any SEO provider who refuses or hesitate to provide such data may not be worthy of your trust and may perform up to your expectations.8. Check if the SEO provide is apt in differentiating &#8220;quality traffic&#8221; from &#8220;non-quality traffic.&#8221; Heavy non-quality traffic coming to your website may not be converted to a sale or a customer.9. Make sure that the SEO provider strictly follows the best SEO practices and no-spam methods in order to avoid your site being penalized. Also, know the risks involved in the methods followed by the SEO provider and make a regular check on them.10. Ask what would happen if your relationship with the service provider gets dissolved. Be sure of placing yourself in a safe and secured place.11. Finally, ask for a Money Back Guarantee if your site gets blacklisted for SEO spam. This ensures that only right and legitimate strategies and tactics are employed for optimizing your site.Sarala Ramdas, senior executive of http://www.trizeon.comAt Trizeon, we provide the best ethical SEO services to optimize your website, drive traffic and increase your online presence. </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>SEO Campaign Strategies: White Hat vs. Black Hat </p>
<p>The impression you want to give your customers will define the type of SEO campaign you run, and the type of provider you choose: </p>
<p>Believe it or not, there are such things as unethical SEO campaigns; the authorities call this down-and-dirty practice &#8220;Black Hat SEO&#8221;. Though Black Hat started out as just &#8220;hedging&#8221; the rules of search engine optimization, it soon went overboard. </p>
<p>One practice of Black Hat SEO service providers is called &#8220;keyword stuffing&#8221;. This method involves taking long lists of keywords and stuffing them into a web page, hoping the search engines will give the page a higher ranking. Another method is invisible text – white text on a white background. The user never sees it, but the search engines will. </p>
<p>Black Hat tactics do work, but only if you want your site to go higher for a short amount of time – before it&#8217;s penalized. Like the good sheriffs of old, search engine spiders will eventually notice the trickery, as will your customers when they click on a page and see nothing but &#8220;blah blah long tail key phrase blah&#8221;. </p>
<p>This isn&#8217;t to say that White Hat SEO service providers are everything good, right and holy; there are unethical practices here, as well. However, these unethical practices are the kind that any buyer is used to: frauds, no work for all pay, etc. You can avoid companies of this type by doing research and asking for references. </p>
<p>White Hat methods include such things as keyword research, using keywords in good content, coding and many more. Like any marketing campaign, a SEO campaign takes time. White Hat methods are set in structured steps so that the campaign is constantly building power; instead of spiking your ratings to the top, you&#8217;ll see a gradual rise. </p>
<p>Blue Hat Strategies </p>
<p>There&#8217;s a trend rising through the SEO service providers called &#8220;Blue Hat&#8221; SEO. This is a mix of Black and White Hat SEO; its focus is to use the most advanced techniques of both practices to achieve the greatest, and most long lasting, results. Though still in its youth, Blue Hat SEO does have a large following, and is quickly growing to become a full-blown strategy of its own. </p>
<p>No matter which SEO service providers you look at, remember one thing: Running a SEO campaign takes time. Any provider that tells you they can have your site at #1 in a week is a provider you need to drop. </p>
<p>As most SEO service providers know, your competitors are rarely the companies you thought they were. With businesses that aren&#8217;t web based, the competition is easier to find; if you sell medical supplies, other companies that sell them are your competitors. It&#8217;s not so clear-cut with internet marketing, however. </p>
<p>If you&#8217;re starting at the bottom as a new website owner, it&#8217;s an unrealistic outlook to consider the head dogs – who have been in place for years – as your competition; good SEO service providers will tell you this. When building a web-based business, the competition isn&#8217;t necessarily those that sell what you sell. Instead, you&#8217;re competing for placement, with SEO as a main way to wrestle your way to the top of the Google SERP (search engine results page) dog pile; and SEO means keywords. Those keywords are the first step to finding your direct competition. </p>
<p>Finding Your Competition </p>
<p>Though all SEO service providers have their own methods for competitive benchmarking, you can take some basic steps on your own to get an idea whom your competitors are. </p>
<p>1. Put the keyword or phrase in the search bar and see how many results come up. </p>
<p>2. Write down (or copy/paste into Word) the number one site for each search phrase you use. </p>
<p>3. Use the same keyword search with the &#8220;intitle:&#8221; command and &#8220;inanchor:&#8221; command. </p>
<p>4. Write down the sites that come up in these results. </p>
<p>The sites in the number one positions and those that come up for the &#8220;intitle:&#8221; and &#8220;inanchor:&#8221; searches are your most likely competition. Although there are other things SEO service providers can do to narrow down the list, you now have a broad idea of who you&#8217;re fighting for the top position in your field. </p>
<p>Researching the Competition </p>
<p>Now that you know who they are, find out what they&#8217;re doing that makes their site more visible. To do this, first look over their content. </p>
<p>Is it informative, interesting and high quality? </p>
<p>Does it stand out? </p>
<p>How is it different from yours? </p>
<p>If content is an issue and writing isn&#8217;t your forte, most reputable providers offer SEO copywriting services. </p>
<p>Look at their navigation and take in the details. If yours is more complicated, perhaps that&#8217;s an issue. You want your navigation to be as uncomplicated as possible, but set up in such a way as to guide your visitors to interesting places on your site. </p>
<p>A word to the wise: While you&#8217;re looking over the competitors&#8217; sites, don&#8217;t make the mistake of some SEO service providers. Don&#8217;t get so stuck on the idea of &#8220;I can do better&#8221; that you forget the bottom line, which is taking the best of all their sites and forging a top of the line site of your own. </p>
<p>Lastly, don&#8217;t be afraid to take notes! That way, when you&#8217;re ready to hire your own SEO service providers you&#8217;ll actually understand a little bit more of what they talk about and how they do it. </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>If you are the owner of a website, you are probably familiar with who an SEO Consultant is and what services they offer. You may have read about them on the internet, in magazines, and possibly on the radio or television programs. You may also wonder who exactly SEO Experts are? Before we define the roles of these service providers, we ought to understand what SEO is. </p>
<p>In this age of information technology, it is easy to assume that everybody or at least most people are familiar with terms such as search engine optimization. The companies or individuals that perform this service are often times referred to as SEO Consultants or SEO Experts. In reality, there are many internet users who are not familiar with these terms. For the benefit of these people we will define and discuss SEO. </p>
<p>SEO is an abbreviation for search engine optimization. How can we define search engine optimization? When you are searching the internet, you find a large number of results in the search engine of your choice. The first results are considered very popular and relevant to the search engines. Companies that perform search engine optimization attempt to grab those top rankings for your company in order to improve your website&#8217;s traffic on the internet. You have probably used a search engine such as Yahoo or Google to find the specific product that you were looking for. Chances are you typed in a short phrase looking for your topic or item using something relevant to your request. These are what are known as &#8220;search queries&#8221; or &#8220;keywords&#8221; in search engine optimization terminology. SEO involves modifying your webpage content so you can grab top rankings for the specific keywords of your choice. These keywords should be in line with those used by specific search engines. The goal of hiring an SEO consultant is to increase your website&#8217;s search rankings for your main keywords of focus. We can therefore say that SEO is a form of marketing a website or web pages on the internet. </p>
<p>SEO does not only involve keyword density within your website. It also involves using tactics such as link building and improvement of site popularity to gain top rankings. SEO involves optimizing your webpage under different types of searches to increase traffic to your website. </p>
<p>Now that you understand what SEO is and why it is important, we can now look at the roles of SEO Experts. Who are SEO consultants and what can they do for you? SEO Experts take their firm grasp and understanding of the search engines and use methodologies and skill sets to improve your rankings. They are people who have knowledge of how the search engine algorithms promote top rankings. The most common search engines used on the internet include Google, MSN and Yahoo. When you hire SEO Consultants, they are given the responsibility of either designing your website or modifying it so the search engines deem it as valuable. They then follow up and help the search engine confirm its belief in your site with in bound links. </p>
<p>The standards of search engines are not static, they are ever changing. SEO experts are required to keep abreast with the workings of the search engines. They need to understand how to properly research out keywords for companies and then they must understand how to achieve results promptly. They do this using a variety of tactics from on page to off page optimization. SEO consultants ensure that the right key words have been used to increase the relevance of your website. The SEO Expert will also be required to ensure that any barriers that may exist against the webpage in the search engine&#8217;s indexing activities are removed. </p>
