Web Hosting And Design Tips, Some Extra Benefits Of SEO
There are many times in business that a client just looks at the bottom line in the area of the level of performance they’re receiving when they invest in Search Engine Optimization.
They just look at the keyword phrases they’re paying for, but they don’t see that there are other effects at play.
As a site becomes more optimized, it is being turned into a well devised navigational pattern. This pattern is precisely what the search engine spiders look for. Keep in mind that if your site is easy to index, you’ll get a better ranking in the search engine results.
W3C validation is always going to be important, and as such any website should want to reach it. One thing that it won’t help with however, is the rankings. Yahoo does not care about the validation so long as it has good content. This is what will keep your page at the top.
Another element when optimizing a site is that through proper naming of page titles, file names and placement of content make the site all the more relevant to the spider. Although Google places less value on Meta Tags, they are still used as part of the algorithm, and should not be overlooked.
After the site has coded properly, the game then goes up to the next level. Search Engine Marketing is used to drive traffic to the site through various means. Press releases, articles, blogs, RSS/XML feeds, Directory Submissions and User Groups all can bring targeted traffic to a site.
There are a few other benefits that you should know about, especially when it comes to Search Engine Marketing. When you create press releases regarding a widget that you sell, you create Inbound Links to that area of your site. If you listed off all of the colors, then you have something different happening. All of those colors will have IBL’s of their own, guaranteeing you even more traffic.
An even greater demonstration of a collateral benefit is ranking for keywords and phrases that you aren’t targeting. Keeping to our widget example, if your site copy talks about the different uses of widgets, the available colors that they come in and the best way to preserve your widget, you’ve just created a multitude of various phrases that your site can get ranked on.
So you’ve now seen a bit of what your website can do when it is properly optimized. Done properly, each page will have a rank, and that rank will drive more traffic to your website.
One other thing that you should concern yourself with is geo targeting. This isn’t something that has been implemented everywhere yet, but it scans your pages for addresses, and if you are a brick and mortar business, then having your address indexed by it’s geographical location is very important.
As you are searching Google to find your page rankings, make sure you try the other keywords that you might have. It could very well surprise you to see exactly how many times your page comes up on an obscure keyword.
