Introduction: Often people ask why do I need search engine optimisation (SEO) and what does it do?

Having your website ranked highly on search engines enables you to tap into an organic stream of customers; customers you do not need to pay in order for them to visit your site.

As a result, the following three posts released monthly, outline what you will need to adopt SEO into your website in a clear and succinct procedure, cutting through the rubbish commonly encountered. You will gain skills enabling you to apply the Favourites Multimedia three-phase SEO approach to your business.

 

Continue if you answer positively:

  • Could you provide information that can help visitors?
  • Can you be proactive in marketing yourself?
  • Would you benefit from more website traffic?

The three phases approach: Establish a thorough foundation in bridging the gap between visitors looking for information, and your resources. Similar to sailing a ship…

  1. Planning & creating – “Create foundations that enable search engines to find you”
    • Choose the hull and sails best suited to your needs then gather the materials and build the ship
  2. Publishing to search engines – “Incorporate SEO into your website service”
    • Launch the finished ship and floating on the sea of web traffic
  3. Selling the site – “Paying people to see your website services”
    • Start the motor and jetting towards the horizon

Note: Break the project into parts, SEO that can be done immediately (Phase 1 & 2) versus SEO that needs to be done after a fully operational website. (Phase 3)

Article/Blog Marketing

With a Content Management System (CMS) such as Joomla!, create articles on the front page of your site relating to what the business is up to. Keep this professional. Write about informative and helpful topics relating to your industry. Talk to industry leaders regarding information that a visitor may benefit from whilst visiting your website.

Example: A business supplying rowing equipment would benefit by applying questions and answers to common knowledge such as:

“Rowing sculls are expensive pieces of equipment, needing regular maintenance and replacement” – so how does someone maintain rowing equipment? Your answer strengthens your brand when people associate you as a useful part of their rowing world.

This can be time consuming; however you will be embedding many great keywords this way. If you don’t have time or energy to flex those copy writing muscles, Favourites Multimedia can research & write content tailored to your needs.

Talk to us about article marketing as this is the bread for the SEO pizza, which your customers will enjoy.

Write an informative and interesting article with a relevant title – best practice is to keep this article topical through regular updates, a process used by Google for page ranking.

Marketing Plan

  • Prioritise your competitors by short term (1 -2 years) and long term (5 -10 years).
  • Foresee the “smoke on the horizon” or “fire on the doorstep”.
  • What value are you offering to your customers and visitors?

SWOT Analysis – (List your details for each subject)

Internal Strengths:

Advantages of proposition, capabilities, competitive advantages, resources, assets, people/experience, marketing reach, distribution awareness, location and geographical, price, value, quality, accreditations, qualifications, certifications, processes, systems, attitude, succession.

Internal Weaknesses:

Disadvantages of proposition, gaps in capabilities, lack of competitive strength, reputation, timescales, deadlines and pressures, cash flow, distraction, reliability of data, morale, commitment.

External Opportunities:

Market developments, competitors’ vulnerabilities, industry or lifestyle trends, technology development and innovation, global influences, new markets, niche target markets, export/import, sales tactics, major contracts, business and product development, information and research, partnerships, weather, fashion influences.

External Threats:

Political/legislative effects, environmental effects, IT developments, competitor intentions, market demand, vital contracts and partners, sustaining internal capabilities, obstacles faced.

The resulting information you provide can help you and others involved to understand your objectives and processes, in order to meet your goals. With a free website/page ranking check-up, Favourites Multimedia can take this information in phase 1 and suggest realistic goals you can expect to achieve.

Press Releases - reach media websites and online publications relevant to both you and your customers’ goals.

Directory Submission – Google is the biggest search engine, however there are specific directories that will relate to your product, customer, manufacturers or industry.

Email Marketing – Creating a mailing list enables communication with customers. However mediums such as RSS or other social media may be more appropriate depending on the target market. Best practice means contacting customers between one week and three months depending on the relationship. Mailing lists help launch your products & services along with promoting and organising events.

Ideally it would be nice to grow this list organically as traffic increases. What does one mean by organically? The process of receiving email requests which are then added to the distribution list.

Social Bookmarking - Similar to directory submission, this makes your website more visible. The more often a web page is submitted and tagged, the better chance it has of being found.

Link Building – Is an effective way to get ranked in search engine results. Link Building is not about the number of links that you acquire but the quality of the links.

  • Link Exchange – cheaply and easily develop link popularity. Asking the website administrator of another relevant site to create a reciprocal link back to your site. This one-way linking is common sense as it provides a good reason to link to you in an interesting and informative context. Three-way linking, which Google is against, eventually results in reduction of your page ranking. It is, however, viewed as a scheme that increases your site’s page rank temporarily.
  • Forum Posting – Use “Dofollow” lists of links. These links lead to sites that enable a link in your post signature and every post on that blog may be considered as a one-way back link for your blog.

Refer to your SWOT analysis throughout each step of phase two to remain on the same path to your horizon, stay focused and be consistent for clear direction.

Your website is now at the point where you want to pay people to see it.

Buying links – Is achieved by advertising on other websites. Contact a website administrator or blogger which services your niche directly. Buying links to your site should look as natural as possible; otherwise Google may reduce your page rank. Let them know you are optimising your site in order to increase web traffic, this will cycle back to help them.

PPC Advertising – Pay per click can attract relevant visitors to your website. You will need to pay for every click – this potentially offers a good return on your investment. This includes page impressions where your PPC advert has been displayed to the user.

Social Networking – Be a popular blogger, create a profile on social networks, add your profile to relevant categories, and create groups. Social networking is a place where PPC advertising is possible. Don’t cross it off the list so quickly – there could be communities that would benefit from your website.

Video Marketing – Promote your products or services through online commercials. It’s no secret people love a visual experience.

Negative SEO: Time & Money Wasters

“Avoid these common misconceptions”

  • Owning multiple domain names
  • Repetitive keywords
  • Three-way link building can possibly impact your rank depending on how it has been performed.
  • Link purchasing

That place could be your Microsoft Outlook email client, your web browser or something else you prefer.

RSS – which stands for Rich Site Summary or Really Simple Syndication – allows you to see the latest headlines from your favourite sites, and to then be able to click directly through to the articles that you want to read.

You do not have to subscribe your email address to an RSS feed therefore you do not get spammed.

The technology is matured however people have not adopted it generally because its misunderstood. The logo is an accurate depiction as content gets broadcasted to people with their (RSS feeds) recievers on. Simliar to a wireless radio broadcast.

Designed to help you streamline support requests and improve customer support efficiency by providing staff with tools they need to deliver fast, effective and measurable support.

The basic features that you would require in any such tool is the ability to create, update and list multiple tickets and view if their status is open, on hold or closed.

The Six Benefits of Using a Ticketing System
While it can be argued that in the digital world, e-mail is more personable than a support ticket, you may want to consider the following:

 

  1. SPAM
  2. Organisation
  3. Redundancy
  4. Accountability and Training
  5. Collaboration
  6. Time Management and Trending

SPAM filters – GREAT for your personal e-mail accounts, however if your settings are too high, you can miss out on legitimate e-mails.

When a customer  constantly experiences lack of response to emails which have taken time and effort during a busy working day,  your business is the loser, meanwhile you bear the brunt of negative feedback on a forum, receive a chargeback, and/or lose a customer, not because of what you did but what you did not do.   Conversely, you receive an  e-mail and deal with the issues only to have your time and effort gobbled up by their SPAM filter; once again the customer thinks that they have been ignored. With a support ticketing system the ticket is right there  housing  their replies as well as yours.

organiseOrganisation – you check your e-mail in the morning and are  ready to reply to their queries, something major goes down, the e-mails start flying and the morning e-mails get buried down the line. The intention is to go back, however keeping up with what is coming in can mean not getting back to those e-mails until considerably later, thereby gaining you a reputation for lack of service.  The beauty of a support ticketing system is that until the tickets are answered they are like little red flags with a countdown timer on them,you will immediately know which have been dealt with and which are pending.

Redundancy -  you develop a rapport with a client over an issue in January, your computer crashes in March, then in June the customer is requests the information again, this could be a large problem.  Many times when the computer crashes the e-mail is gone and you have to start  from scratch, however with a ticketing system the ticket can be pulled up to retrieve all relevant and valuable information.

Accountability and Training – A support ticketing system provides accountability,  log on and you can see exactly who said what and when. Should one of your staff is give out misinformation, the ticketing system becomes an excellent training tool, responses can be recalled and used to show where the mistake was made and how things could have been done more effectively.

Collaboration – If you have multiple staff members working on the accounts, by giving them  access to the support system, they can read the posts of  previous staffers and know exactly what that client is being told,  no  “he said she said”.

mazeTime Management and Trending -  Support ticketing systems provide the facilityof entering the  amount of time worked for each ticket enabling you to evaluate time and efficiency of each transaction,  for example you may decide that product XYZ requires more  support.  There is also the ability to look at the customer tickets to see if there is a theme among them,* i.e.  you have 45 tickets and of that forty-five,  37 are asking where a certain bonus is,  this could possibly be addressed in their welcome e-mail, In this way you will have significantly shortened the support time required  for that product. An FAQ can also be developed regarding common questions.

Along with the tangible benefits of saving time by providing  professional expertise to your customers, you can count on the benefit  of peace of mind. Unanswered emails from customers accumulating in your inbox can make you lose focus and become pressured.  By using only emails for customer support,  you attract spammers, also  when you do get reply  to each customer’s email, there is no guarantee that the replies will not get blocked by spam filters.  All such frustrations can be avoided by  installing support ticket software.  These are just a few things to consider when handling your support.  Ticketing systems may cost more than plain e-mail service, but worth every cent.
