Some Extra Benefits of SEO

In business, many clients overlook the real results that they're getting during Search Engine Marketing.

They often only look at the selected keyword phrases that they are paying for, without fully realizing what other residual effects they are receiving.

During a site's optimization, it is transformed into a properly conceived and easily navigable document. It is a patter that is sought out by the search engine spiders. If your site is easier to index, you will find that your rankings become much better!

W3C validation is something that all websites should be working toward, but it won't help with the rankings. Yahoo engineers have indeed said that the W3C validation will not help with the rankings. It's content however will determine it's ranking.

Another element when optimizing a site is that through proper naming of page titles, file names and placement of content make the site all the more relevant to the spider. Although Google places less value on Meta Tags, they are still used as part of the algorithm, and should not be overlooked.

When you've finished coding the site, and done it right, then Search Engine Marketing finally comes into play. By doing this you are ensuring the traffic to your site will be increased, and there are a number of different ways that you can do this. For instance you could use articles, you could use press releases, blogs, just about anything.

Here is where the collateral benefits of Search Engine Marketing begin to appear. Let's say that you have been doing a series of press releases where once a week, you talk about a new color of widget. In each press release you also list the other colors of widgets that you have for sale. Even after only the first release gets sent, you've already created a valuable In-Bound Link to your site for your Red Widget, but since you included the other colors of the widgets as well, they all pick up IBL's as well.

If you included phrases about the ways to use widgets, their colors, and other things, then you have also included keywords that you may have never though of. When you check to see what keywords are being used, you might actually be a bit surprised.

This is only a tiny sampling of the potential your site has. Remember, each page gets ranked on it's own, so that's why it is so important to make sure every page you have on your site is optimized.

Even your contact/about page is critical because if you have a brick-and-mortar business, by listing your street address, you help the search engines geo target your site. Most search engines are already trying to focus your search results regionally. While it's not a major factor yet, it is something to be aware of.

When you check Google to see where your site ranks, remember all of the hidden keywords that you may have included. It's amazing how often these will bring you right to the top of the search engine rankings. Right were you belong!
