What is it ?
"Search engine
optimization" refers to the act / process of
altering your site so that it may rank well
for particular terms.
Search engine
optimization (SEO), also known as search
engine positioning (SEP) and search engine
marketing (SEM) is a process of making a
website content more search engine friendly
for higher search engine ranking across
strategically defined set of keywords and
phrases that apply to products or services.
Search
engine optimization can be
difficult and confusing many times. Actually,
it should be called "web site optimization"
instead of search engine optimization as web
sites are optimized not the search
engine to achieve a better search engine
ranking.

chair of in the area of search engine
marketing / search engine optimization / search
engine ranking.
Why You Need It ?
The potential for companies marketing their
products, services or information online is
enormous. The Web is growing at an exponential
rate. There are currently in excess of 5
billion Web documents, increasing at a rate of
roughly 7 million per day. Every day, Web
users utilize the major search properties to
launch over 400 million queries for products,
services and information solutions. So unless
youre doing something to make your Web appear
more visible than the millions of others
competing for attention, that site is no more
prominent than a single star lost among a vast
universe of content.
It has been found that search engines beat all
other media in driving visitors to Web sites,
with 77 percent of Internet users employing
search engines to find Web sites. Furthermore,
78 percent of users will abandon their query
if the first three (3) pages of results do not
yield an answer to their question. Even more
amazing, fully 33 percent of users believe
companies found in top search results are a
major brand in their specific product/service
category -- indicating that top rankings
transmit brand equity. So your Web site must
be found prominently within the search results
of all the major search properties in order to
capitalize on the behaviors of people
searching for product or service solutions
online.

Process Involved
Optimizing your site for higher placement on
search engines can be like chasing windmills.
Hours can be spent making adjustments with no
immediate feedback or sense of progress. At
Reliable Ranking, we created a six step process to
analyze your site and make the necessary
adjustments to improve search engine
optimization
- INITIAL
CONSULTATION AND ANALYSIS
Our first step is to discuss your sites purpose and
intended audience. We will look over your existing
site by hand and also use automated scripts to analyze
keyword frequency and placement, as well as link
structure and external site relationships.
-
PERFORMANCE TESTING
After consultation we perform tests on over 10 search
engines to examine your current placement to reveal
weaknesses and opportunities. We can also tell if
their are inherent problems with your site or server
that might deter search engines from reviewing and
adding your site to their index.
-
COMPETITIVE ANALYSIS
If your goal is to increase traffic to your site by
improving your site's search engine placement, then
it's crucial to examine your competition; after all,
those are the sites that you will need to beat in
order to gain higher relevancy on the search engine
results list.
-
DETERMINING CONTENT CHANGES AND DEPLOYMENT
Perhaps the single most important step in increasing
traffic to your site is to make the content on your
site a desirable and relevant destination, both for
the search engine spider and for your customers. We'll
make recommendations based on your business and
customer base. At the same time, we will work with you
to determine the precise set of keywords and their
placement that will lead to better search engine
performance. We believe that it is the correct
placement and usage of optimal keywords that make the
difference in a site's performance.
- SEARCH
ENGINE REGISTRATION
Often looked to as the answer to search engine
placement problems are those services that promise
rapid results for registering your site with multiple
engines for a low fixed fee. This is the last and
easily the least important step in improving your
site's performance with search engines. In many cases
with the right site placement and usage of content you
will notice a dramatic improvement without
registration at all. Still, we do see a benefit in
registering your site because it can often encourage
search engines to spider your site more often to find
content changes, allowing you to continually adjust
and improve the correct usage of relevant content. We
will take care of this step for you.
