You’re aware of the importance of SEO to the success of your business, and now you need to start optimizing your site. So where do you begin? You begin by creating a strategy. Your SEO strategy should define exactly how you are going to go about tackling the process through a series of steps that you can follow as you go along. Here are those steps, in order of importance.

Determine who will be responsible. Are you going to be in charge of optimization yourself, are you going to bring someone onto your team to take care of it, or are you going to hire an outside SEO professional? If you choose to do it yourself or to hire someone onto your team, you’re going to be climbing a long, steep learning curve. It’s a curve that offers a lot of rewards as far as helping you develop confidence in your abilities, but the longer it takes you to climb it, the longer it will take you to see the results of your efforts. And the longer it takes to get results, the longer you’ll have to wait before you see an increase in profits from your online efforts.

Find Someone to Answer Your Questions. If you’re going to take care of your SEO in house, then you need to find someone who knows what he’s doing to answer your questions. This may be another business owner who has experience with SEO or an SEO professional who consults with you as needed. Either way, you need someone to help you out when you get stuck and aren’t sure where to go next. And if you can learn from someone else’s mistakes, you won’t have to make them yourself.

One of the most difficult aspects of SEO is determining how to budget for it.  If you have no previous exposure to internet marketing, then it may feel like plugging a number into the SEO line of your budget is like taking a shot in the dark.  Many newcomers to the world of SEO actually choose not to include SEO in the budget at all, believing that the costs are negligible, or that leftover money from other line items can be used for SEO.  But not having a budget at all is more detrimental to the success of your business than budgeting inappropriately.  Including SEO as a line item, even if your estimations are incorrect, at least indicates an awareness of just how important SEO really is.  Fortunately, there are some reliable ways to

If you are a newcomer to the world of online business and internet marketing, you will probably need professional assistance in your quest to get top search engine rankings.  Fortunately, there are plenty of SEO experts out there who are ready and willing to help.  Depending on your needs and the needs of your business, you can hire an SEO professional to take on the entirety of your SEO needs, or you can simply hire a consultant to look over the work you’ve done and give you some helpful hints.  Either way, you’re going to invest some time and money in an SEO professional, so it’s imperative that you hire someone who’s going to do a good job the first time.  Here are some things to look for when you’re hiring an SEO company: 

·         If an SEO professional makes the initial contact with you, you probably don’t want their services.  Any SEO professional worth his or her salt should be so busy working on other people’s websites that they don’t have time to make cold calls.  Only engage SEO professionals whom you’ve researched thoroughly and to whom you make the initial phone call. 

·         Make sure you can talk to the person who will be working on your website.  Many SEO companies use off-shore professionals to do their work. There’s nothing inherently wrong with this, but you need to

How to Sell SEO to Management PDF Print E-mail
Basic SEO - How to

One of the most difficult aspects of marketing a business online is convincing upper-level management of the need to concentrate marketing efforts on SEO.  Managers who have never heard of SEO may not be convinced that it will make any difference in the bottom line, and those who have heard of it may dismiss it as “gimmicky.”  This means that, for the internet marketer, the actual act of convincing management of the need for SEO may be more difficult that the actual SEO itself. 


Educating management about the need for SEO:

 ·         Remember that SEO may sound threatening.  You know that SEO works, but all your management hears is that they’ll have to give up that fancy Flash page they paid so much for, they’ll have to hire a content writer to beef up the copy on the page, the entire navigation will have to be reworked, and the JavaScript has to go.  You see a brave new world. They see a disaster. Have a little empathy.

·         Give them statistics.  Does upper-level management know that 70% of clicks to the company website come from the organic search engine results rather than the paid advertisement?  That might be convincing enough.
