Our services fall into two categories:
- INITIAL OPTIMIZATION
During initial search engine placement, we apply our interdisciplinary
expertise in e-commerce, psychology, linguistics, and mathematics to
achieve a high search engine placement of your site on the top search
engines. This is an intensive process.
- ON-GOING MAINTENANCE
Routine on-going search engine optimization maintenance is a month-to-month
effort to improve the standing of your site where needed, maintain its
search engine placement in the face of growing competition, and extend
its reach to new search engines.
We take no shortcuts and give each of the following search
engine optimization stages its due:
1. Data collection and general statistics.
We analyze your site and compare it with data about your main competitors,
especially those whose sites are performing better than yours. We also
collect visitor statistics to learn where your visitors are coming from.
We will compare this information with data collected after we begin promoting
your site's search engine placement.
2. Keyword/phrase analysis and selection
We ensure that you are targeting the search phrases that your customers
use to find you. Choosing the right
search terms is crucial for effective search engine optimization. This
appears to be a simple, intuitive task, but it is in fact the result of
complex research and statistical analysis. To find the most effective
keywords for your site's search engine placement we cross-reference terms
that appear on the site with our database of the most popular search terms
used in real queries on the major search engines.
3. Meta tag surgery
The Title, Keywords, and Description tags of your site mean a lot to search
engines. We optimize these components for your site based on our knowledge
of current search engine optimization trends. We recommend new Title, Keyword,
and Description tags, and suggest other measures to make your pages more
search-engine friendly.
4. Optimizing your pages
To optimize and increase the number of effective visitors to your site, we
optimize most of your pages for your keywords/phrases. Pages are specifically
optimized according to the different themes that are featured on your site.
5. Submission to search engines and directories
We submit your site manually to search engines and directories.
We emphasize manually because most search engines have developed
mechanisms against automatic submissions and because for a directory submission
to be successful it must be designed very carefully. It is even more difficult
to achieve a top search engine placement in a directory because they are
compiled by human operators who evaluate every submission. The Yahoo!
directory is very selective and has strict rules. Of all the listings,
it is the most difficult. Therefore, to achieve top search engine placement in Yahoo! your site must submitted with utmost attention to detail.
6. Fine-tuning and Maintenance
After the submission work is completed, the iterative process
of fine-tuning and search engine placement maintenance begins. Fine-tuning
takes 4 to 6 months until a satisfactory search engine optimization is achieved,
during which time you receive regular search engine placement reports
that let you track our work as we make your search engine placement increase.
After your site reaches the desired search engine placement on most of
the engines, the on-going, long-term
maintenance process begins.
