How SEO Services can Improve Conversions
Tuesday, August 23rd, 2011Now that the internet has replaced the Yellow Pages as a reference source for people to find products and services, attention must be paid to the most effective ways to advertise on the internet. One important component is Search Engine Optimization (SEO). If done correctly, SEO helps a link to a web site appear near the top of a user’s screen when they use a search engine. Many internet shoppers will click on the links to only the top three or four results of their searches. The links below the top few never get noticed at all. SEO is necessary to get a site in these top three or four results.
SEO services help a link come to the top of a screen during a search by writing the text of the web site so that it is rich keywords. Keywords are words or phrases that people commonly use when using a search engine when shopping for a product or service. A site that is rich in the right keywords has a better chance of achieving higher search rankings than a site that does not have any of the keywords. A copywriter using SEO techniques must take into consideration that people often do not use the same keywords when using a search engine that the people who run the business think are obvious.
A web site that is keyword rich must also be relevant to a search. Shoppers move on if they come across a website that is dense with the words or phrases they used in the search but offers something different from what they are looking for. A person using a search engine to shop for vintage Superman comic books may get frustrated if he comes across a site that pitches muscle building supplements, and may report the site to the search engine if the site is packed with the word “Superman.” Major search engines have guidelines and terms of use that prohibit such packing of keywords. At least one search engine, Google, has a trade secret algorithm that it uses to rank sites by relevance to searches. Anyone who writes text for a web site must consider how to make the text relevant to the search terms that internet shoppers use.
Another important factor in SEO is the number of sites that are linked to it and the relevance of these other sites to a shopper’s search term. The number and relevance of the sites to which an optimized site is linked also influences how it will be ranked. Firms that provide SEO services establish these links often means submitting links to online directories or relevant blogs or online communities.
