When to Hire an SEO Copywriter

Let’s make an upfront assumption. You already have a website with the page content already done. You have your on-page SEO elements like titles, meta descriptions, and your sitemap all ship-shape. You recognize or have been advised that the addition of new content to the site and getting Backlinks are essential to getting ranked on the search engines and critical to SEO processes.

Differences in SEO Strategies for Google, Yahoo and Bing

Anyone who has a website knows that search engines are the boss. If they're not happy with the content of your site, then no one is because it will never be found by anyone else. Understanding what they ‘like’ and avoiding the things they don’t is the best way to get results. Historically, Google has been the powerhouse – garnering the overwhelming majority of searchers. The reason for this is straight forward; real people love Google because the results are fast and relevant. With the recent release of Microsoft’s Bing and their partnership with Yahoo, there is more hope for more formidable competition. There are a growing niche of Bing lovers now preferring this search engine based on some of its unique display and access functionalities. Still, it is still a relatively small player, albeit moving in the right direction. BUT – how do you optimize a website to achieve first page results on all three of these major engines.

How Do You Increase Website Conversions?

You can have the best marketing plan. Your website can rank number one with Bing, Google and Ask. You can utilize pay per click, SEO and carefully review and manage every aspect of your advertising, and you still might not have paying customers. These steps, while crucial for getting visitors to your site, won’t guarantee you can convert them to paying customers. You must implement a conversion strategy to ensure that your visitors are not just X’ing out of your site – they are performing a specific action.

Writing “Search Engine Friendly” SEO Content

There is a fine line between content that is reader friendly and content that is search engine friendly; learning how to blend the two together is one of the keys to obtaining high Search Engine Rankings. Many website owners make the mistake of assuming that just because their content is well written and easy to read, they will automatically see an increase in their rankings. Instead, content must be properly formatted, and written with an understanding of how search engine spiders work and how search engines rank websites. It's impossible to have one without the other. Content that is poor, but has excellent SEO work won't get good page / site interaction, and great content that's badly optimized won't show up for people to read in the first place.

Being Creative with Internet Marketing

Being creative when using internet marketing is a vital element for any company that wants to build positive brand awareness and actually get somewhere with their marketing campaigns.
