In today's economic climate, if you've got a website, selling products or services, you're probably in a better position than most small businesses. Internet-based businesses are the wave of the future. Consider that you're on the cutting edge. Whereas conventional retail and service oriented businesses have substantial overhead, such as office space, with all the attendant utilities, the overhead of an internet based business is minimal. As in all business sectors, competition is fierce. Attaining a better search engine ranking should be a priority in your business strategies. Getting to page one on Google is your goal. Let's see how you can optimize your website and, thus gain more traffic and sales.
The content you provide to your visitors is essential to your success. Long gone are the days of slapping up a single page sales web page. The search engines have been there, done that. Today, search engines have 'intelligent' spider robots that analyze each page on your site. The spiders are looking for pages which are composed of information that all correlates to a single purpose. Construct your pages with care. For example, an article on the treatment of arthritis should include links to well respected, quality information related to arthritis. Ads displayed on a sidebar might include Google ads, affiliate links and non-commercial information resources. When the search engines pass by, you'll get better search engine rankings.
After all, if you're the searcher, looking for information on, for example, how to save money on groceries, irrelevant results will quickly steer you to another, more discerning search engine that provides the results you want. This is why the search engines vie with one another to return meaningful results. This means that you, as the website owner, must take care to ensure that everything you post, on every page targets a specific need.
In order to attain a better search engine ranking, you want to have as much content as you have bandwidth to accommodate. There's no such thing as too much content, provided that the content is of high quality. Engaging a professional content provider is in your best interest, unless you're a professional writer. Why?
Keyword selection is an imperative. Search engines look for keywords as well as related terms. Finessing the two can be a challenging task. If you're not an SEO specialist and a professional content writer, you might invest a great deal of time without achieving a better search engine ranking. Content is an area which deserves a space in your marketing budget.
Another avenue to better search engine ranking for your site is to provide quality links to other reputable sites which give your visitors additional information on the topic at hand. Hand pick your links, targeting sites which already enjoy better search engine rankings among their competitors, while not being your competitor. For example, if you're selling restaurant equipment, links to sites which sell professional cookware serve you in better search engine rankings and your site's credibility, while not 'stealing' customers away from what you have to offer.
Blogs and e-newsletters are another path to better search engine rankings. Both of these constitute free information, no strings attached, to the net searcher. These types of publications lead to better rankings with the search engines, while costing you nothing, beyond your time.
