Search Engine Optimization and SEO Website Design
A word to the wise…Local manual SEO is not an easy profession to master. With Local Tampa Bay SEO and Local Orlando SEO, as with most professions, there are many average to poor performing people and companies. Since every business is competing for the top ranking under a variety of search terms and phrases, not everyone can be at the top. It pays to hire the best and Strategic Media is certainly one of the best. There are companies who recommend outdated techniques or shortcuts that are designed to trick the search engines. Although these approaches may work in the very short term, they will ultimately result in your website being penalized by the search engines and thus, dropping in the rankings, sometimes permanently. If the SEO approach is considered unethica, often referred to as black hat, by the search engine companies it can result in your site being removed from a search engine's index. Many consultants focus only on the hot new trends or a few facets of Local SEO, failing to address the over 200 parameters needed to get their website to rank well. An ethical and comprehensive approach, using only the techniques approved of by the search engines for giving the searcher the accurate results that they were searching for is the best Local SEO website design approach. In Local Tampa Bay SEO and Local Orlando SEO, if it sounds too good to be true it probably is.
Pay Per Click (PPC) Search Engine Advertising
Most Tampa Bay and Orlando business owners believed that when their website designer designed their website it was simply a matter of launching it on the web and people would find it. However, most web designers, although good at website design, are not good at Local SEO. As a result most business owners have to resort to Pay Per Click (PPC) advertising sponsored through the search engines. Pay Per Click (PPC) advertising allows you to bid against other companies for the desired search terms or key words. The business then pays on a fixed cost per click to have their sponsor link ads listed on the right hand side of search engine results pages. These listings allow the business to bid on which search terms or keywords they want to be found under. Since there is no limit to the number of times a site may be clicked on in the Pay Per Click sponsor link section, most businesses must set a dollar limit for each month for their Pay Per Click (PPC) campaign. Once that budget is used up the sponsor link ad no longer appears in the PPC section. Pay Per Click (PPC) can be averaged to expire daily or simply end on the day of the month that the Pay Per Click (PPC) budget is reached. Many businesses outsource their PPC campaigns. This outsourcing typically costs about one third of the overall PPC campaign budget.
SEO Website Design
One of the most important factors when attempting to rank your website in the search engines is a website design that the search engines are able to easily enter your website and move through the entire website, reading all of the content contained in the website. Successful SEO website design requires a comprehensive knowledge of how search engines work to read the content on your web pages. Eighty percent of your results will be based on the architecture of your website. This is what allows the search engines to easily enter and read the content within the website. Twenty percent of your success will come from what the content is in the website. Obviously, the content is not relevant if the search engine cannot read it.

SEO Content Writing
After you have a website design that has an architecture that makes it easy for the search engines to read, your next step is to make sure your website design has content that is relevant to the mission of your company. SEO content writing is a science. If over done, SEO content writing can cause your website to be penalized. If done correctly, SEO content writing will bring your website to the top of the search engine rankings. Professional SEO content writing is essential to the success of your company’s website ranking.
