SEO Standards for Beginners is the new little, informative book to help understand more about the basics of SEO.

What is the Bounce Rate? – I just recently discovered that this is actually a debated issue…. Too wild. Sometimes people like to overcomplicate everything….and where web technology is concerned…isn’t there enough that is complicated and complex that we don’t need to add to this issue??

Anyway….the bounce rate is a very simple thing that should be left out of the debate rooms…

When a visitor clicks on a link to your website and then clicks right off because it was not where they wanted to be, they didn’t like the look of your site, they realized quickly that they didn’t find the information they needed, or they were just going there for contact info, got it and jumped right back off, etc…  These visitors are considered to be bouncing off your site.

This is a part of the analytical data that is used to determine if a website is targeting the right key phrases to reach the audience that would be most interested in what they have to offer or most likely to become a customer, etc.

If your bounce rate is too high, then you are not having enough of an effect on the audience you are reaching online….unless of course, your phones are ringing off the hook and all those bouncers are just hitting your site up for the contact info…  But one way to keep the bounce rate low and still give people your contact information is to put the contact info in the html description tag. Let them see how to contact you without even having to click on your link.

Remembering that the point of having a website is to generate additional leads and gain exposure online, as well as increase your business credibility should assist you in simplifying the entire process a bit.

SEO jobs, both large and small, all include some of the same basic elements.

If you have an SEO job that you need an SEO service to perform, make sure that any company that serves you will be checking to make sure that your title tags are adequate for each and every page.

They need to pay attention to the html or xhtml coding of your web pages to be certain that the many different types of tags within that code, which are helpful for SEO are updated and fully utilized.

Do not expect to show up in search engine results pages if your pages are not using the specific and similar words that your customers would be typing in to the search engine to find you. This does not mean your company name! You cannot grow your business if only people who already know about you can find you, however, unless you have an adequate website where you can be found under your company name online, you will not appear to be a credible business and consumers who may even know about you, may look you up, only to believe that you are a fly-by-night company if you don’t show up online.

Your SEO service should talk to you about the importance of local maps and local business directories.

Your SEO plan must include content writing services! This cannot be stressed enough! Google’s preferable way for websites to receive back-links is through the regular provision of interesting, quality content on a website. This will help to build the most solid foundation for your company’s online future.

Press release writing and major distribution is also extremely important! Press releases done the right way will significantly help your online marketing plan and your SEO plan.

SEO Copywriting is business sales writing that is optimized and posted online to generate leads through online marketing plans, using your business website as the foundation for your Internet advertising campaign.

There are a number of different methods in use for SEO copywriting, however, Google continuously admonishes it’s business owner and SEO audience to make all SEO copywriting relevant, informative, interesting and resourceful. While they continue to make a big deal out of how many links a website has leading back to it, they also continue to encourage and request that business websites receive these links as a result of their provision of content that pleases the Internet audience enough to get them to link back to it as a source for good or at least, entertaining information.

People use a large variety of methods when they are attempting to get back-links to their websites and some of these methods are considered to be spam. The reason they are considered spam is because they are listings and links that add no real value to the site that the post is included on and they only bog down web pages with lots of nonsensical mumbo jumbo, reducing the value of those websites they are linking from and taking shameful advantage of websites that have chosen to leave their comments section “on.”

Effective SEO Copywriting

Effective SEO Copywriting has a number of elements. In addition to providing information that people may actually be interested in reading, the writing should also include a call to action, using sales techniques much like you would use if you were attempting to sell a person that you had on the phone, that you were sending mail to, that you were displaying your signs to or that were in your physical presence.

There are differences between SEO Copywriting and Print Ad Copywriting however.

When writing for print, it is still advisable to have a certain amount of white space to make the reader comfortable as they scan over a page, not creating a page of content that an individual might dread taking the time to read, but appearing more accessible and easy to glean points from.

This is something that many design companies have a difficult time understanding. Put yourself in the shoes of your audience and ask yourself whether or not you would earnestly take the time to read a lengthy, descriptive piece on paint, swimming pools, sock sales…(okay maybe sock sales would be worth it….), toothpaste, HVAC equipment, plumbing and so on.

When you are writing for the World Wide Web, you should really also consider what people are really doing when they are searching for products and services online. Generally, they just want to know more about the product they are interested in. It may be an interesting tidbit to discover that that product was invented in the 1800’s, however, it’s not really what someone who is looking to buy cares about.

Internet searchers (i.e. customers) want to be able to click on a link in the search engine result page and find a picture and a description of the item they are interested in buying. They want you to make them feel comfortable that they have made a good choice in clicking on your link and that they can save time now to go to the dry cleaners with….because they found a company they would trust to come to their house to take care of their pets and now they can focus on other matters.

SEO Copywriting is also extremely important because you need for your business website to have regular activity. No one wants to look at a website and wonder if the business is still even operating, nor does Google want to put any of those sites that haven’t been touched for a while on the front page if they can help it because they would be risking failing their customers, the Internet searchers, who just want up-to-date info at the very moment they are seeking it.

That’s all the info on SEO Copywriting being shared on this page today… Please check back soon for more marketing and technology-related pages to help you better understand more about the fastest growing marketplace in history…the Internet.

Links in the footer are often used by SEO companies to attempt to help the positioning of a website.

While it is true that these links will not be entirely disregarded, they are likely to be some of the least effective links of your SEO campaign. One of the reasons that this is true has to do with the way that Google determines the importance of each website with regard to specific key terms.

Google wants to provide richly informative results for Internet searchers and they determine whether or not a website is richly informative by judging how many words are on a page, how many of those words are obviously relevant to the topic, what type of words are linked because of being informative topics that people are interested in learning more about and what title tags and heading tags are with the assumption (that must be backed up by the rest of the content) that those heading tags are identifying what information is on the page following that particular heading tag.

Key Phrases in SEO

When a linked key phrase is in the footer of the document, it doesn’t make it appear to be the most relevant, integral part of the page, but rather is more of an obvious add-on, even though in particular cases, it may very well be a very relevant link and resource for the user’s (benefit) experience.

For this reason, when you choose to put links in the footer, you are not hurting your website’s SEO status, but the help you are providing it is less significant than many SEO companies formerly believed and relied on.

Okay….onto the info!

Using CSS has been touted as the most effective method for building SEO-friendly websites. Yes, Google search engines can still read through tables and this is still a heavily used technique, however, CSS is simpler and more flexible in a lot of ways, providing less code to read through and making it easier to make updates from one place that affect the entire website if you choose to set it up this way.

In order to avoid the use of tables and use a CSS design, DIV tags are the way to go.

The DIV element is the container for the various types of content on your web page. You can establish the start and end of the content container with your DIV tags. You can create either fixed or liquid designs, depending on whether you are looking for consistency or flexibility for the many different types of technology and hardware that your viewers will be using when looking at your web page.

Here is an example of a footer section:

}
#footer {
background: #fff;
position: absolute;
top: 500px;
left: 0px;
width: 800px;
height: 100px;
}

With DIVs, you can build columns, footers, headers and set up your web page just as you see fit.

Using the float properties with DIV can reduce your file size and increase your load time.

Using percentages instead of px as seen above, ex: width: 100% can also help you to create a more professional appearance.

Google is always changing their search engine algorithms in their effort to purify the user experience when they type a key phrase into the search engine and receive results.

Google employee “Matt” recently stated that Google makes about 300-400 changes every year.
