Creating Your Website Presence

Creating Your Website Presence

What is search engine friendly content.  You may believe it is about stuffing your website with targeted keywords, however, it certainly isn’t.  In fact, if you attempted to do that, you may find that you could fall foul of the search engines if you attempt it.  It is a simple rule and one that will keep you in good stead and that is to write copy that not only search engine spiders will look at, but also human beings will as well.  What is the point of having a site that is highly ranked, yet none of your visitors can understand, nor trust?  So it is vital that your website is user friendly to both your visitors, as well as search engine spiders.

First of all you need to answer the following questions:-

1.           What is your site for?

2.           What does it do?

3.           What do you want your visitors to do when they reach it?

4.           Would you like them to spend money when they get to it?

5.           Or are you just providing them with information?

So the above points will have an impact on the copy that you write for the content of your website.

So whenever possible, use short paragraphs or bullet points, as these are more likely to attract visitors, while more lengthy essays will only drive them away.

But if you are selling a service or product then you need to make your site look interesting.  Provide as many calls to action as you can, and not just provide them with an online price list.

So remember that you are trying to attract the search engines, but at the same time your website should be designed for human readers.  As long as your website has been designed well and with people in mind, then 9 times out of 10 you will find that it is search engine friendly also.

Just like a visitor to your website reads the copy on your page in order to figure out what you have to offer, so does a search engine.  So when a search engine is looking at your web page, they are looking for keyword phrases in your copy (Content), as well as other vital components. 

Below are provided a number of tips which may help you in your SEO endevours. The list is by no means complete or final and is provided purely as a guide. For additional information please visit the following link: http://www.hostingimpact.com/search_engine_optimisation_preparation.htm

1.  Although there are no hard and fast rules, the general feelings are that you should have at least 200 words of relevant copy on each page of your website.  Although this may be difficult at times, search engines really like it, so it is important that you increase the amount of copy where and when you are able to.

This text, wherever possible, should include your most important keywords and or keyword phrases, but should still remain logical and easy to read for your website visitors.

2.  Ensure that you use the keyword phrases which you have used within your meta tags and meta description sections for that particular webpage.

3.  Add additional relevant copy filled pages to the site, such as how to articles, tips or tutorials.  Not only do these types of pages help with SEO, but you may find that other sites will link to yours.

These tips, although not infinite or definite should not be ignored, as optimising your web page  (content) is one of the most important things you could possibly do in order to improve your rankings in the Search Engines.

One of the easiest methods in viral marketing is using a Tell-A-Friend script. This is a simple programming script that you can attach to the programming of your website. Generally, Tell-A-Friends scripts are installed in pages where a media is placed so that a person can easily send the media to any of his friends or his family members.

The basic concept of a Tell-A-Friend script is a script wherein a person may input his name, E-mail address, the recipient’s E-mail address and send the media to the intended recipient much like an E-mail with an attachment. As the recipient receives the E-mail he wouldn’t think of the mail as spam because he would see the sender’s name as someone he or she knows and trust.

Tell-A-Friend script eliminates greatly the chances of being blocked because they use the information inputted by the sender. This allows for wider spreading of this marketing method. It can be quite sneaky but it is very effective.

With the E-mail sent and opened the sent media will either be read, viewed or played. Also along with the mail would be a brief description of the company or site that sponsors the media sent. This allows for the introduction of either the site, company name or its products. The along with it is another Tell-A-Friend script.

Then the process begins and REPEATS again. As more people use the tell-a- friend script, more and more people will know of the existence of the sponsoring company or site.

Below are 4 great tips on receiving traffic to your new website or blog.

 

1. Forum marketing

You can begin by posting in various relevant forums to enhance your presence. Be a consistent contributor to the posts, offer sound advice and above all be respectful of other users. Over time, other contributors will come to know and trust you and they will actively seek out your opinion or thoughts. Remember to place your Signature, which is nothing but text of about 3-4 lines, with a link to your web site or the affiliate's website placed strategically within your Profile on the Forum.

 2. Title Tag

A blog must have an effective relevant title tag in order to get a good ranking within the search engines. The title plays a vital role, initally, however the actual post must be well-written and informative and pertain to the subject. Ensure that the Title Tag and content tie into together. This will provide your web site with good traffic.

3. Tell-a-friend

It is also a good idea to place a "Tell-a-Friend" script on your website. Once again, don't place it on some obscure place of your website, make it prominent, top left or right side and just underneath the header has always worked best for us. The "Tell-a-Friend" script may help you in getting more traffic as visitors may recommend your website to other people.

4. Promotion

If you've liked a product that you've used and there is an opportunity for you to leave behind a suitable testimonial, well then do so. Remember to place a link to your website at the end. Promote your website at every available opportunity, in your daily conversation with customers, friends, associates. Ask them for their opinion on your website, the colours, design, layout etc but promote it at all times. Every email that you send out should have your company details and or Branding and with links back to your website. This will also ensure that adequate traffic comes to your web site.
