SEO: Rank High in Google Search
(Search Engine Optimization)
Computer Jeanne uses industry-accepted (“white hat”) practices to position your website as high as possible in search engine results. In other words, when someone searches for something you offer or write about on your website or blog, that person will be more likely to find you on the first pages of Google or Yahoo or Bing if your site has been optimized. SEO enables your website to achieve a higher ranking in search engine results. In short, this helps you become more successful – on the web – and in your brick and mortar business.
If you take the long view, SEO is a much more cost-efficient and more effective method to gain exposure than relying purely on money-drains like Google AdWords, Yahoo paid ads or the less reliable method of buying backlinks.
- Don’t pay thousands for a website – only to be ignored by Google
- Rank high in Google, Yahoo! , Bing and other search engine results
- Design your site to bring traffic. This is the first element of Search engine optimization (SEO) — the firm’s specialty.
The above results were from Sept 23, 2010.
Results fluctuate and depend on factors like breaking news, new blog posts, location, et al. To maintain good SEO results, websites must be constantly and consistently monitored and tweaked.
Matt Cutts of Google, perhaps the most widely-respected and listened to SEO guru, was interviewed four years ago in this video. His hairdo may have changed a few times since then, but the guidelines for best SEO practices remain the same. For those of you who have listened to me extol the virtues of WordPress, here is further proof of what I discovered for myself – spoken by the Oracle, himself!
