SEOThe Hard Facts!

Page 49: Online Marketing Extravaganza 2011

1.) SEO Cannot Guarantee ResultsNo one can guarantee a #1 ranking on Google – Google Webmaster Guidelines

Page 50: Online Marketing Extravaganza 2011

2.) Keywords Don't Remain Top Forever

Page 51: Online Marketing Extravaganza 2011

3.) Rankings Can Fluctuate at Times

Page 52: Online Marketing Extravaganza 2011

4.) SEO is Not About Mass Link Building

What is better?5 links from related sources

Or150 links from directories and spam sites

Page 53: Online Marketing Extravaganza 2011

5.) SEO is Just Like Website Maintenance It Has To Be On-going

Content

Link building

Social

Review

Improve

Page 54: Online Marketing Extravaganza 2011

6.) Slow and Steady Wins the Race

Instant or quick wins come in the form of Pay Per Click

Page 55: Online Marketing Extravaganza 2011

7.) Nobody is partnered with Google

Google is a search engine not a marketing agency

Page 56: Online Marketing Extravaganza 2011

8.) Buying Links is Bad and Will Result in Penalties at Some Point

Page 57: Online Marketing Extravaganza 2011

4 P’s of SEO

Patience

PersistencePerseverance

Proactive

Page 58: Online Marketing Extravaganza 2011

Patience

• No one is really patient, especially in business – everyone has bills to pay, bosses to report to, investors to satisfy…

• Often making it difficult to justify SEO spend in one quarter when results might happen the next quarter.

Page 59: Online Marketing Extravaganza 2011

Persistence

• SEO isn’t something you can spend a few weeks doing, and then sit back and watch the traffic increase.

• In competitive niches, the competition is going to be working on something every day to reach a goal. Unless you’re doing the same or better, you’ll simply miss out

Page 60: Online Marketing Extravaganza 2011

Perseverance

• No matter how strong your SEO strategy is, you don’t control the SERPs, the search engines do.

• Yes, you can influence it (sometimes very heavily), but you can’t control it.

Page 61: Online Marketing Extravaganza 2011

Proactive

• Any SEO work done today likely won’t affect traffic or revenue today.

• Think and plan ahead. Make sure you factor in the long-term to your day-to-day activities.

Page 62: Online Marketing Extravaganza 2011

Making SEO WorkFor Your Business

Page 63: Online Marketing Extravaganza 2011

Laying Foundations• Perform keyword research for your niche

• Build links to your new content from related sources

Page 64: Online Marketing Extravaganza 2011

Page StructureInclude your KW in:• Page title• H1, H2 elements• Variations

throughout content body

• ALT tags of images

• Ideally image file name

Page 65: Online Marketing Extravaganza 2011

Laying Foundations

• Ensure your site has a sitemap

• Create a robots.txt file - A robots.txt file is one that tells the search engines what they can and cannot index.

Page 66: Online Marketing Extravaganza 2011

Making It Work

To ensure the hours you spend on SEO are worthwhile it is vital to track and measure every step and process taken

Page 67: Online Marketing Extravaganza 2011

Making It Work

• SEO is an evolving beast and requires time and attention to improve results

• Constantly review your competition and the work they are doing

• Build authoritative links to your content

Page 68: Online Marketing Extravaganza 2011

Making It Work

• Use industry knowledge – widely available from blogs including ours

• DO NOT try to cheat the system, you will be caught out
