3 Ways SEO Marketing Can Help Your Business

When you have a website it is like having a really big advertisement for your service or products. But unless you get it right, this website may never be found by the people who could become your customers. There are millions of websites on the Internet and a good portion of them are likely to be offering the same things as you. Not all of them can show up on the first page of the search engines.

The problem is that most people who are searching for something on the Internet do not look past the first page of results that come up for their keyword. So your website may never be seen – unless you do some simple SEO marketing.

Here are three ways such marketing can help your business: –

Firstly, the right SEO techniques can make your website show up on the first page of Google so it does not remain invisible. What are the ‘right’ SEO techniques? There are many ways to make your website show up, from the actual design of the website through to the content on it, the keywords used in the text, the value the text gives to your visitors, the images and/or videos used and the inbound and outbound links – and where they lead to. You may think that design has no bearing on the matter, but what if you were looking for hiking boots and came across a website that featured ballerinas or dancing shoes in its header image? Would you click on that one, or one that showed say, mountains along with hiking boots?

14 Tips for Creating Successful Adwords Campaigns

Adwords is a form of digital marketing and a way of advertising on Google that digital agencies utilise. To start you need to find out what words people use to search on Google for your products or others like yours. Without searches for your product, an Adwords campaign will be wasted. You can use Google’s Adwords Keyword Suggestion Tool. This tool will tell you what keywords similar to yours have been searched for and how many times.

It also gives the cost of each keyword. This allows you to choose your keywords for both number of searches and cost. Once you find out these details, your AdWords campaign can get going, however, if you are a newbie to the world of AdWords, take care that you don’t just allow your money to drain down a bottomless pit. Here are some tips to help you.

Set up a daily budget, and don’t go over it.
Have a clear goal in mind. The usual goal for AdWords is to increase your sales.
Set up your ads with your target customer in mind, using keywords they will likely use.
Include the exact keywords that are in the ad on your landing page to ensure your ad is accurately worded and the end result is what the customer is looking for.
Include negative keywords targeting when setting up your ad. There will be some keywords that have different meanings or shades of meaning. Glasses can mean eyeglasses or wine glasses. So you need to weed out those people who are after something different.

Finding Keywords You Can Easily Rank For

Whether you rely on SEO or paid advertising to promote your business website, one thing they both have in common is the need to research and establish the keywords which will bring you the best results.

It is at this early stage in the process that many business owners’ eyes start to glaze over, either because they are new and don’t have the first idea where to start, or they’ve tried before and got totally lost.

This is understandable as there is so much information published online about keyword research that it’s enough to make anyone’s head spin.

Firstly, let’s get the terminology right to clear up some confusion. For the purposes of SEO, a ‘keyword’ can be a single word, such as ‘dog’ or more than one word such as ‘dog training’. You might see some claim ‘dog training’ is a ‘keyword phrase’ and they are not wrong but for the most part we’ll call them keywords whether they have one word or more than one word.

The definition of a keyword is it’s a word or words which web users type into the search engines when they are looking for something online. For any given keyword which website owners want their sites to be considered relevant for in the eyes of the search engines and in particular Google, they will implement search engine optimisation (SEO) to boost their ranking.

7 Key Components Of An SEO Optimised Dental Website

If you are a dentist and your dental practice has its own website, have you ever stopped to ascertain if it is actually bringing you the number of new clients and patients that it should? No doubt you attract new clients from other sources such as personal recommendations, but, unless your website is ranked highly on search engines when someone locally is looking for a dentist, it is not providing you the benefits it should.

One way in which the ranking of your website can be improved is with search engine optimisation, or SEO, as it is more commonly referred to. SEO has many processes but one of its most important is to ensure that a website has all the elements it needs within its structure to help its search engine ranking.

Whilst there are SEO consultants and agencies that can do this work for you, it pays for you to at least have an understanding of what aspects of a website need to be optimised in order for its ranking to improve.

Taking this a stage further if you feel confident that you know your way around a website, many of these optimisation steps can be done by yourself but do tread carefully.

Whether you choose to bring in the experts, or want to try it yourself, here is a brief overview of 7 of the most components of an SEO optimised website. Some are quite technical, others rely more on common sense, but together they can boost your website’s SEO, enormously.

How Web Design Plays an Important Part of Marketing

Many people think of web design as the visual aspect of what they see when they surf to a website. This is mostly the header graphics and sometimes the images and text they see on the first page. However, website design is much more than this and a lot of it is even hidden from view. The cost of web design is usually you get what you pay for and Good web design makes the website easy to navigate, giving the visitor an experience that is pleasant and simple.

If your visitors get annoyed because they can’t easily find what they want, they will soon click off your website and look elsewhere for what they want. So website design that is wrong in any way will soon lose potential customers. That is why it is important to get it right the first time around.

Get to the point

It is not just the ease of use that is important. Visitors like to know within a few seconds if your website offers them what they want. So text should be clear and to the point. Links should lead them to further information or to the product or service they want. They should be placed where it is easy for visitors to find, not hidden among unnecessary layers of text.

If most visitors get to your page by clicking on your ad, it should be a landing page set up with little information on it apart from what the ad was about, a contact link or a link to the page that shows your product. This page should then lead the customer easily to the checkout and they should be guided along each step of the way by obvious buttons that tell them what to do.

5 Online Marketing Tactics For Home Security Businesses Part 3

Search Engine Optimisation (SEO)

No online marketing strategy for local home security businesses would be complete without SEO. This is the means by which many of your other online marketing activities come together, so that it is your website that rises to the top of Google when someone searches for home security companies.

Of course, any SEO campaign needs to be carefully planned, prepared for property, implemented effectively, and managed strategically, and it also takes a degree of patience, as SEO trends and results are not an overnight phenomenon.

However, if done correctly, the results will start to happen, and when they do, the increase in traffic from improved search engine ranking can be dramatic.

We should maybe have put the words ‘done correctly’ in capital letters because out of every campaign which hits the mark, there are many which fall short. Not because SEO doesn’t work, but normally because the business owner either tried it themselves or got their in-house marketing team to do it without really knowing what they were doing- and if not done correctly, it is easy to make SEO mistakes that damage your rankings.

SEO is something that takes time, knowledge, experience and also a number of special tools and software, so if you want your SEO done correctly, employ an agency with a proven track record, and the required tools already in place.

5 Online Marketing Tactics For Home Security Businesses Part 2

Social Media

Social media can mean different things to different people, and even within the world of business marketing, it is used in many different ways.

For example, within social media sites such as Facebook, you can implement a PPC campaign, of the type we mentioned in the previous section.

However, here we are not talking about paid ads, but rather using social media as a means to attract, communicate with, entertain, build relationships with, and connect with potential and existing customers.

The means we mention include creating content that you publish on your social media pages and accounts. That content can have a number of functions and take several forms.

It can be written text, images, videos, audio, infographics, and even live events as they happen. As for the purpose of these, it is limited only by your imagination or that of the agency you have employed to manage your social media.

5 Online Marketing Tactics For Home Security Businesses Part 1

If you own or manage a home security company, it is more than likely that you have a fair level of competition within your local catchment area. After all, home security is one of those industries which is evergreen so there is always a demand for it. It also benefits from advancements in technology, so new products regularly launch within the sector.

This creates a win double for home security companies, like Alarm Systems Perth, with lots of new potential customers and clients looking to have their first home security installed, coupled with existing customers who may be looking to upgrade or enhance their existing system.

However, where there are customers, sales, and profits to be made, there is also going to be other businesses competing for those very same customers, sales, and profits. The result, a thriving, but an incredibly competitive marketplace, and where there is competition, there are always going to be winners and losers.

Presumably, you want your home security business to be a winner, and one of the primary ways you can achieve that is to ensure that your online marketing activities are the right ones and that they are implemented effectively.

For most home security companies that operate at a local level, those activities are likely to be contracted out to a local marketing agency rather than in-house. That being said, there are some who undertake their own marketing, and to fair, some, though not all, do a decent job.

When Can I Legally Make Someone Redundant?

In Australia, redundancy is a serious topic that you need to understand as an employer. Making an employee redundant without following the correct procedure can have serious consequences and, in bad cases, can even lead to unfair dismissal claims against you.

Because of this, we decided to put together a short guide to help you decide whether or not you can legally make a position redundant. As always, remember that this information is not meant as legal advice and that you should always speak with an experienced lawyer if you’re unsure about your rights and responsibilities.

First, What Is Meant By Redundancy?

Redundancy refers to the act of terminating an employee’s contract because their position is no longer required. In general, there are two situations which can result in legal redundancy. They include:

When an employee’s job doesn’t need to be done anymore. This may be because of new technology, a shift in workplace procedure, or because their role has been merged with another.
When a company goes bankrupt or otherwise shuts down, meaning there isn’t a job to do anymore.

A few examples of situations where an employee can be legally made redundant include:

When new technology or machinery is introduced to the workplace that takes over work that was previously performed by the person in question.
When a business downsizes, and thus requires fewer employees.
When a business closes down or relocates to a different state or country.
When a business’s structure changes due to a merger or takeover.

Remember that it’s extremely important to ensure you’re following the rules if you decide to make a position redundant. Otherwise, you may end up facing serious penalties.

How To Ensure Your Website Is Ready for Google’s Mobile First Index

The massive increase in the use of mobile and hand-held devices in recent years has meant changes in the ways virtually every offline or online business operates. That applies every bit as much to Google and search engine companies as it does to other industries, and as they amend their algorithms and ranking criteria to take account of the growth of mobile use, it also has huge implications for SEO.

Google has already started changing its results index as the numbers of desktop searches declines, and the number of searches coming from mobile devices increases. These changes mean that Google is giving ever-increasing prominence to mobile-friendly websites versus those sites that can only be viewed properly on desktop devices.

If you own a website you need to be aware of this switch, and more importantly, get your web designer to take appropriate actions to ensure that your website doesn’t get pushed down the ranking because it is not compatible with Google’s mobile-index. The steps required are not as difficult or as complicated as you might imagine, but they do need some time, and more importantly, some thought in terms of how your website operates.

It may be the case that your website is already on Google’s mobile index, and if you have installed Google’s Search Console, you will have been notified about this. If your website uses WordPress, then the theme you are using should have a mobile-friendly format. Using the search console, you can also access data relating to how Google’s spiders and bots are seeing your website and the degree to which your website ranks well for mobile against its desktop version.

Where your mobile-index ranking is struggling against your competitors, there are some of the ways you can introduce an SEO strategy to steer your website towards being more mobile user-friendly.

Google AdWords For Law Firms – Is It Worth It?

Today’s major debate among lawyers and law firm marketers is centred on Google AdWords marketing. As a law firm, is it worth using AdWords? If so, how should it be used to get the most out of it?

To begin with, we’re going to say yes, Google AdWords marketing for law firms, such as Family Lawyers Perth, is worth it, but only if it’s one right and only if you have a large marketing budget. If your marketing budget is limited, there are other things, like social media, that you need to focus on first to ensure you are getting the most for your money. Let’s have a look at this in more detail.

AdWords Is Expensive For Lawyers

You probably know that Google Adwords is extremely expensive for family lawyers and law firms. Unless you are focusing on very non-competitive location-specific keywords, then you can expect to pay a lot every time someone clicks on one of your ads. This can quickly chew up your advertising budget, giving you limited visibility and limited returns for the amount of money you have spent.

SEO Is A More Affordable Option

If you have a limited online marketing budget, your best option is to focus on SEO (Search Engine Optimisation). When done right, SEO can help your website appear at the top of the search engine results pages for a number of relevant keywords. It is quite affordable when compared to AdWords marketing, and it provides a long-term solution rather than the short-term visibility of AdWords.

How Can I Improve My Law Firm’s Search Engine Rankings?

As a law firm, online marketing probably provides one of your main sources of clients. However, online marketing can be expensive, which has led to a lot of lawyers and law firms turning to Search Engine Optimisation (SEO) to drive more traffic to their website, and to increase the number of potential clients contacting them.

However, SEO can be difficult if you don’t know what you’re doing. While a lot of law firms choose to employ a digital agency or marketing consultant to take care of their SEO for them, it is possible to do it on your own. The following are some of the actions that you can take to improve your firm’s search engine rankings:

Make Sure That You Include Your Name, Address & Phone Number On Every Page

As a local business, your law firm’s website will be much more accessible to Google search engine crawler bots if you have your address, name, and phone number clearly listed on every page. The best spot for it is usually the bottom right hand corner, but this will vary depending on your site design. Make sure that your address is correct, as it is essential when it comes to appearing in location-based searches.

Make Sure Every Page Focuses On A Keyword/Phrase

When you are creating content for your website, it can be hard to work out exactly what you should be focusing on. Search engine crawlers take keywords and keyword phrases into account, so make sure that you establish a specific keyword for every page on your website. Make sure that they keyword is closely related to the subject of the webpage, and make sure that you don’t overuse it.
