What Never Forgotten had to say about Angel SEO

Kristina Tassi – Director, Never Forgotten Ltd

After a recent meeting with a new client, I thought this would be a great little post.

Our client’s website currently uses frames to generate content on to all of their webpage’s and they couldn’t understand why they weren’t getting ranked – not even for their company name!

After 10 minutes explaining the situation and educating the client about SEO, they fully understood why and what needs to be done, in that 10 minutes I pointed them to a great article written by Search Engine Watch – to read the article, click here.

Apart from optimising website content, it has been recommended that website owners should optimise website images. There are two good reasons for this:

(1) From our findings, internet users use Google images to find websites and information.

(2) It is widely known that Google doesn’t just look at text on a website but also images!

Convinced? No doubt the next question is, how do you optimise your website images?

First consider how Google views them. When Google looks at the images it will check the filename and alt text (this is the code which generates the image on to your website). Click here to read more…

At the recent Pubcon seminar in Las Vegas, Matt Cutts (senior engineer at Google) was quoted as saying “fast load times may have a positive effect on rankings”. This is something which the new, upgraded version of Google (Caffeine) is targeted at.

Have you ever sat there, done a search on Google, found a website which looks good and waited for it to load? How frustrating! Google is devoted to improving the information you receive through the search engine ranking pages (SERPs) and the overall general speed of the internet. Click here to read more…

Are you a business based in Leicester, considering whether SEO might work for you? Did you know that there is a locally based team of experts waiting to help you, without obligation? Read on to find out more.

All businesses need to grow. To grow, they need to find new customers. There are plenty of conventional ways of meeting this need – magazines, newspapers, radio, TV – but all these share something in common: the wrong moment. The right moment is the moment where your potential customer wants to buy. Few people want to buy when they’re relaxing, reading magazines, newspapers, listening to the radio or watching TV.

By contrast, people use search engines when they do want to buy. They are searching for businesses like yours to deliver products and services like yours to them. They use search engines like Google and Yahoo to do this. Crucially, they rarely get past the first page of results before they make a choice.

In today’s video we look at how to choose the right search engine optimisation company and what questions you should ask including:

• Can I see examples of your SEO work?
• Are you willing to educate me about search engine optimisation?
• What is your industry experience?
• What do you consider to be the most important SEO factors?
• Can you guarantee me the number 1 position in the search engines?
• When should I start to see improvements in my ranking(s)?

In this video we give you an insight into search engine optimisation (SEO). This video’s five tips including:

• Google maps
• Sitemaps
• Social networking websites
• UK servers
• Website content

For a seriously quick win, Google Maps can be a great way of exposure even without any SEO, so ideal for new start-up businesses!

After experimenting with Google Maps over the past few week, we have found some little tactics that work really well:

• Firstly add your business in the Google local business centre
• Then list your phone number, primary email address and business address on every page of your website

You’re probably thinking how is this going to make a difference? Well, Google loves it when you assign your details to your web pages – I guess it falls under a certain amount of trust, which Google is a massive believer in. Its like domain names, the older they are the more trusted they are.

Also with the above points, it is vital you get your details out there, and when we say details we mean your URL, business address, primary email and phone number.

Great websites to do this on include:

• Yell
• Hot frog
• Free Index
• Local business directories (Angel SEO – Touch Nottingham)
• Niche business directories (Angel SEO – SEOmoz Market Place)

Basically websites that are trusted by Google and have been established for over 3 years.

So there we have it, a great quick win for all businesses.

In today’s video we look at the three main points about search engine optimisation (SEO):

• What is search engine optimisation (SEO)?
• Who is SEO for?
• Why do I need SEO?

We will shortly be posting some SEO videos for you to watch and learn from, keep your eyes peeled…
