So you've got yourself a lovely, shiny new website which
is the envy of your industry. But how do your audience
find it?
Anybody who uses the internet, in fact even those who don't,
know the name Google. Well as you know Google is a 'search engine'
which helps internet users find the websites that interest them by
allowing them to search for relevant website content. But how does
it work?
Google and other search engines (because contrary to popular
opinion there are others) trawl all the websites on the internet
and look at all the words and phrases contained in them. They also
look at how many times those websites have been visited and how
many other sites link to them. They do this all day every day.
When they've looked at a website they give it a score for all
the content and visits and links and an ever changing list of other
criteria and this is what decides what order the websites appear in
the list when you search for something on the internet.
The trick is getting all your ducks in a row and making sure
that the words and phrases your customers are searching for bring
your website up in front of their eyes.
It doesn't sound like a difficult job making sure that your
website contains relevant information does it, but an entire
industry has sprung up to ensure that websites are put before the
people who want to view them. The rules change almost daily and
therefore you need to be talking to someone who knows those
rules. Enter the SEO professional.
