It IS about getting a wide range of phrases as high as possible and working on incremental improvements– Head, medium and long tail phrases – Measure ranking positions, number of phrases ranked

and traffic increases

SEO in construction

Galleries and case studies essential

SEO success in High Tech

SEO in Business to Consumer

1. Auditing and analysis of your current performance

2. On-page changes – content , metadata, link structure

3. Off-page changes – content marketing , links , social media

How do we do SEO?

What checks do we need to carry out?

The main ones are…

The Spidering Process

HTML Sitemap

Key things to check in GWT

Geo targeting – make sure its set to relevant countries

Crawl errors – ie pages not found/broken links

Any messages from Google

Sitemapping

Robots.txt

Check your links at www.linkdetox.com

Check you backlinks with www.linkdetox.com

A spreadsheet will be produced giving an assessment of each link

We remove all moderate and high risk links where possible

If cannot be removed use Google Disavow Process

Local results – maps, mobile, Google+

Local search –’Preston plumbers’

Map search – and on mobiles..

‘Google My Business’

Integrates maps, Google + and website

Go to…https://www.google.com/business

Go through the registration process to describe your business and location– You’ll need a google account

When complete thee will send you a postcard with a access code– Go back and complete the registration

Some local ranking factors

Local on page SEO (eg Manchester, plumber etc in text and metadata)

Ensure name, address and postcode on website

Get some local links (local biz directories)

Ideally get some reviews

Get some dialogue going on Google + with customers

Developing the Initial Keyphrase List- still important

- Brainstorm with your self and others you work with

- Look at what competitors use (‘view’; ‘source’ then see the meta data and visible text)

- Any brand names or generic product types which are relevant

- Study your web stats for keyphrases which have driven people to your site

- Take you mates down the pub and ask them what they would type in to find you

- Use web based tools eg Google Keyword Tool:-

- You could even ask your customers and suppliers

Accessing the Keyword Tool through Adwords

Login to your Adwords account Then tools and analysis>>keyword planner

https://adwords.google.co.uk/select/KeywordToolExternal

Analytics and keywords

Keep this keyphrase list for use with other digital marketing

Using Google’s autosuggest

Another input into keyword analysis See what gets suggested and include

if relevant

Be aware of personalisation skewing– Results shown will reflect previous

click through activity

Major Ranking Factors

On Page Factors (‘Entry Ticket’)– Metadata – title, keyword, description, H1– Visible (readable) html content– Internal links

Off Page Factors (‘Competitive Differentiators’)– Inbound link infrastructure– Directories, blogs, pr sites, etc, etc..– Domain trust – age, age of links

Behavioural/engagement (less important generally , BUT is becoming more important)– Number of visits, length of stay, social media activity

How do we do SEO?

Textual content is King

There is no substitute for good ‘keyword rich’ content

– At least 200-250 words

– Content semantically related to keywords (LSI)

– Eg, valentine, love, hearts, romance

– Focus on natural writing of copy

Add new relevant content as often as you can

– New pages with related content – eg history, background, instructions

Google’s ‘Panda’ Update – Emphasis on Quality Content

Click to edit Master text styles– Second level– Third level

Fourth level– Fifth level

- Sites with copied content are getting penalised

-Emphasis needs to be on original and interesting content

-Copy writing needs to be a priority activity of SEO

-’Duplicate content’ is a definite no – no

-Also ‘fresh’ content favoured (latest update)

Content strategy leads to high positions in many keyphrases

Quality textual content

http://www.mantracourt.com/products/wireless-telemetry

Scroll down to see good quality content

Google Hummingbird Update

Even more emphasis on high quality content and ‘conversational search’

More focus on ‘long tail phrases’ and user intent– Eg ‘How do I install a combi

boiler in my house’

Maybe less focus on keyword matching

More detail here…– http://www.janklin.com/blog/yet-another-major-google-update

www.aardvarksafaris.comwww.aardvarksafaris.co.uk

You’ll need translated pages if you want to capture foreign language searches

In summary Write text as naturally as possible

Try to produce engaging informative and unique information

Check afterwards that the target phrase(s) is included the right number of times– 3 repetitions per 100 words is generally enough.– Punctuation not important

Emphasis on ‘quality’ and ‘fresh’ content

The phrases can be included in:-– The main text– Header tags (h1, h2 etc)– In in-text links– In navigation links– In footnotes– In ‘alt’ tags

Meta Tags – The Title tag

metadata

Eye Tracking Study 2/3 of the time users initially looked at a listing for 7/100 of a second

Predominately looked at titles Across all Yahoo! searches, participants focused on the titles first and foremost, with fewer reading the fine print of the listing

IMPORTANCE OF TITLES AND DESCRIPTIONS

Components of SEO

How do we do SEO?

Backlinks - Use www.linkdiagnosis.com to check your links

The SEO Process and Domain Authority

Do on page SEO work first – then a ranking check to see where you are positioned

The only remaining variable to improve to increase rankings is your domain authority

What is domain authority (DA)?– what is yours?– What is your competitors?

DA is mainly a function of backlinks into your site ( and domain age to a certain extent)

The gap between your DA and your competitors DA can be closed by link building

Check you Domain Authority

http://www.opensiteexplorer.org – to check your links and DA

Link Building Strategies-aka Content Marketing

Why is link building important?

1. Links from other sites to ours generate traffic for us– Eg A reference from a directory

such as Yell.com will lead people directly to us

– Other ‘content marketing’ will generate links

2. It is an important factor in our search engine rankings– The more links the more important

we are for search engines– That is – the higher Domain

Authority we have

– CHECK YOUR LINKS AT www.ahrefs.com

The case for Re-Targeting

Keyword ‘garden offices’– 2000 searches per month

3rd place in Google gives you a 6% click through rate– ie 120 people visit your site

How many convert?– Enquire, fill in form, phone, buy something

Typically less than 5% convert meaning 114 of the 120 visitors go away without contacting you

Retargeting in action

Why do people leave websites without making contact?

Not relevant Early stage competitive research Call of nature Cat jumps on lap Lack of calls to action Difficult to navigate site Abandons shopping cart

– eg don’t like delivery charges Etc , etc

Retargeting examplehttp://retargeting-companies.findthebest-sw.com/

Retargeting example

Track visitors who spend more than 30 seconds looking at specific villas

Show ads to these people when they visit other sites– 7 repeats per visitor over 7

Ad clicks through to £100 off voucher they can redeem with next 5 days- (in exchange for email

address and phone number)

Retargeting in action

RTB – happens in less than 20 milliseconds!

Facebook Retargeting

Visit your site without converting

When they visit facebook ads are shown to invite them back

Ads can be shown in news feeds as well as ‘marketplace ads’ on right sidebar

Facebook Boost-to give your posts a boost

Get your posts higher up the newsfeed for increased visibility

Pay to target a specific demographic – just like facebook advertising
