Working My Web Site: Tales from a Novice, Part II
Posted in: Search Engine Optimization Specialist, By: Dara Derion, At: July 16th, 2008
In the last post, I shared my experience when I first launched my site as a component of my business. While it was within my ability to work with someone to design and launch my site, I quickly realized that I was in need of some more focused professional help when it came to my search engine optimization efforts. And so I searched out a search engine optimization specialist that could help me manage the day to day of achieving increased web traffic.
The search engine optimization specialist that I chose worked with me to be sure that the pages of my site were optimized with the use of keyword rich content that would relate to the products and services being provided by my business and would likely be the words and phrases used by those searching for what my web site could offer them. The management of my content became something of a consistent job for the SEO specialist that worked to make sure that the content being provided was fresh, relevant to the reader and likely to draw the attention of the search engines.
Further, the SEO specialist contacted other relevant, high-quality web sites with which we could possibly share reciprocal links. These links act as votes of confidence online and give the search engines another reason to check out your web site as an option in creating their page rankings.
My goal was to be on page one on the top search engines and I was able to accomplish that goal within six months of working with a SEO specialist. When in doubt, hire the professionals.
