SEO Tips

SEO can be difficult and confusing. There are no shortcuts to professional Internet marketing and search engine optimization. You must invest time and have long-term patience and commitment to be successful.

The Search Engine Optimization Process

Our methods include, however are not limited to the following steps:
• Keyword Research - Searching through a database of actually-used keyword phrases that are relevant to your business, and determining the best phrases to use to optimize your site.
• Professional copywriting as necessary. This can be a big job depending on how large the web site is.
• Optimizing tags, titles and other parts of the HTML code as necessary. Including controlling meta tags which control what the search engines say in their description about your web site.
• Editing the copy to ensure proper usage of the most searched-upon keyword phrases relevant to your site.
• Google approved white hat link building strategies.
• Submitting optimized page URLs to the major search engines. This is limited today because the major search engines find your site from links pointing to you.
• Monitoring the search engines bi-monthly to ensure that your URL becomes indexed, and tracking your traffic and keyword referrals using web based metrics.
• Providing monthly reports showing where your site is ranking and under which keyword phases.
• Strategies for paid advertisements, and building reference networks, text link ads, banner ads, pay per click advertisements to help increase your back links and traffic. This can be extremely important and very complex in using the best practices. We consider some of our methods proprietary.
• SEO Training for your staff as required.
• Traffic conversion. Do visitors to your web site purchase your products and services? Why or why not?
• Is your site user friendly? Can visitors to your site find your email, phone number and the information they want? How many pages do they read before they leave your site? What is their click path? etc.

Google launching platform for selling books online


Google Inc. now launching a new online service that will let readers buy electronic versions of books and read them on such gadgets as cell phones, laptops and possibly e-book devices.

The company said Google Editions marks its first effort to earn revenue from its ambitious Google Books scanning project, which attempts to make millions of printed books available online. Although the scanning program has faced complaints from authors and publishers over copyright, Google Editions will cover only books submitted and approved by the copyright holders when it launches next year.

The books bought through Google Editions will be accessible on any device that has a Web browser, including smart phones, netbooks and personal computers and laptops, putting Google in competition with Amazon.com Inc. and its Kindle e-book reader.

Consumers can buy directly from Google or from any number of online booksellers and other retail partners using the Google Editions platform. Google will actually host the e-books and make them searchable.
Google expects the program will start with 400,000 to 600,000 books in the first half of 2010.

Microsoft recovers Sidekick data


Microsoft says it has now recovered the personal data lost when its Sidekick servers suffered an outage on 13 October. The online service backs up contacts, photos, calendar appointments and other personal data stored on the mobile phones of Sidekick T Mobile customers.

Microsoft Corporate Vice President Roz Ho says that all data will be restored, beginning with personal contacts. She believes that only a minority of Sidekick users are still affected. “The outage was caused by a system failure that created data loss in the core database and the back up,” she wrote in an open letter to customers.
