What is SEO?

SEO means that you have "optimized" your website to standards and "rules" set by Google, and the other smaller search engines to find your website and decide if it is worthy of higher placement on their pages.

Want to be on the first page of Google?  Want to buy the Brooklyn Bridge?

Here is the truth about where you can expect to show up on Google.

Think about this....

There are 10 spaces on the first page of Google. How many other businesses like yours are in your area. What is your area?. Is it a city, county, state, USA, the world?

How many other businesses like yours are competing for those 10 spots on the first page of Google?

Example: You own a Hair Salon. How many other salons are in the area you wish to market your services...10, 20, 300?

Let's assume each of those salons has a website, and every website developer promises to get their salon client on the first page of Google.

Think about that.....how do you get 300 into a space built for 10?

If you make hand carved wooden signs, and you are one of 3 in your area, guess what....you will be on the first page of Google in weeks.
 

Most web developers who promise to get you on the first pages of Google "for a fee", don't want you to know the truth.

The truth won't make them money. Here is the truth.

A major factor in Google's criteria for placement is "Activity" on your website. Activity means, people visiting your site. Visiting over and over. And the reason they will visit your site repeatedly is because you are giving them information they can trust.

They want to know that when they see information, prices, times, schedules, events, etc, on your website...that the information is accurate.

They will tell their friends to trust your website. More trust means more visits, and Google sees activity!

Does your SEO information need to be changed/monitored/adjusted all the time? Probably not. You see, Google loves to see changes on websites. When their "spiders" visit your website, which can become almost daily if they like your site, they love to see new information.

So, while other companies want to play on your ignorance and sell you their SEO services, we tell you the truth. YOU can get yourself higher in the ranks by simply spending an hour or two a week putting some new information on your site.

I am a photographer. 2 years ago I moved to another part of the country. I built a new website for my new photography business. there were about 100 other photographers in the area. I was the "new guy". Most of the others were there for 10+ years.

In 10 months I was at the top of page 2 on a Google search for photographers. What did I do differently? I noticed that all the other photographers had the same sample images on their sites "forever". They never updated their images or text.

I created pages that displayed my "current work". That current work changed weekly. Google saw much more activity on my site, from the clients sending their friends to see their pictures, and ranked me higher.

I subscribe to the principal "find out what others don't want to do, and then do that thing".

Most people want to pay for a website, pay someone who will "run" their website, pay someone who will promise them "top rankings", and and then complain when nothing works.

Customers don't visit their expensive website, Google ignores them, etc.

We can build you a great website, we can list you in search engines, we can add all of your keywords....but, if you spend a few minutes each week on your website, same as you clean your place of business, you will see remarkable results.

And it does not cost you anything to do that.

Feel free to call me directly should you have any questions about your website optimization.
