5 Steps to Improve Your Search Engine Rankings : Part 2

mlteric — Mon, 28 Nov 2011 14:00:04 +0000

Last week I covered the importance of keyword research before you begin optimizing your website. This week I’ll be explaining the basics of creating a search engine friendly architecture.

Step 2: Your Website Structure

If you are starting with a brand new website, making sure your website is built in a search engine friendly architecture is an important piece of the puzzle to get right. Be sure your code is clean and concise. Google, just like people, will read and follow your the information on your website more often if the content is laid out in a straightforward manner.

When referring to a “search engine friendly architecture” I’m mainly talking about how the code is written on the actual pages. To see what the search engines are viewing go to the top of your browser, click on View then Page Source. Ideally you should be able to read through the code and have a basic understanding of where the parts of your website are, such as the navigation, content and images. If your code is difficult to read and follow, the search engines will have a more difficult time as well.

Your website should validate at W3C (http://validator.w3.org/) although this is not completely necessary for good rankings, it does help with the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) compliance and ensuring your code is well formatted. Some 3rd party tools such as Facebook plug-ins and Javascript use code that is not part of the standard HTML library and can cause the page to not validate. Don’t worry about correcting these issues as they provide other functionality you are looking to keep.

One of the most important areas of a website that developers tend to overlook is the website “head” …. In between the head tags is where your page contains its Javascript, CSS and META tags for the page. Since the data in these tags doesn’t show up on the actual display of the website this area tends to get ignored and can become unnecessarily large. All CSS and Javascript code should be referencing external files. This not only speeds up the load time of the website (which is becoming more important to Google’s algorithms) it also makes editing the code later easier.

To load your CSS from an external file your code should look something like this:

A similar approach should be done with any Javascript on your site. The code for loading a Javascript file should look something like this:

As with everything there are exceptions to the rule, plug-ins usually cannot but included in an external file, you will need to place them in the code where you want the plug-in to display.

Finally we come to the meat of the website, the body tag …. Between these two tags is what your visitors will see on screen. This is also where the majority of your on-site SEO will take place. In keeping with a search engine friendly architecture your site should make proper use of the HTML tags.

Rather than building your website with tables you should use div tags modified with CSS (CSS based layouts). Although tables can produce a similar result on screen as a CSS based layout, the code to create the same functionality with a table can be 3-4 times as large. While this may not seem like a big deal for a small page, but if you have a lot of tables or complex nested tables your page size can grow out of control quickly. Remember: the more code a page has the longer it will take to load, affecting its results in the search engines.

Be sure to understand and use the text modifications tags properly, such as “H1-H6”, “em” and “strong”. Each of these tags have their place in the site and should not be used just to decorate the text. If you need to make the text a different size, do that through your CSS file.

So to recap, your website needs to have a good foundation for your search engine optimization efforts to be most successful. You can build a building on sand but it won’t be as sturdy as if you built it on stone. The same applies to your website, a good foundation makes it easier for the search engines to read and understand your site.

Importance of a Well Designed Website

mltjeff — Thu, 17 Nov 2011 20:22:39 +0000

Anybody can build a website. But not everybody can design and build an effective website that will actually help your business. With the technology available today you can find free templates on the Internet for do-it-yourself site building. You can also get a cheap site from a one-man web shop or a phone book company desperate to diversify their way out of a dying industry. Any of these options will serve a limited marketing purpose; you will have a website. Beyond that, the value of what you receive is likely to be very limited, and a site that just gets thrown together can actually hurt the image of your business. In my research I have seen many websites that I feel work against the best interests of the company they ‘promote’. These companies would be better off with no site at all.

Why is it so important to have a well designed website?

It gives your company a professional look. People want to work with companies who look like they know what they are doing. A well designed site will help to build confidence in your company.
People want to be able to find what they are looking for on a site. If a site is poorly put together and difficult to navigate people are likely to leave.
You want to capture people’s attention. Your site needs to make a great first impression.
Setting yourself apart from your competitor’s. If your website is better than you competitor’s you give yourself a leg up when fighting for clients.

Nearly everyone in business understands that a website is something they need, however some people miss the importance of a well designed site. Your website is a 24/7 representation of your business or organization that can trumpet your best qualities or whisper your weaknesses. If optimized correctly for search engines your site can drive targeted traffic from people looking for what you offer, and everyone you promote your business to, through any marketing medium, has the opportunity to validate your claims by visiting your website. What they find is extremely important! In fact, your web site is likely the most important piece of advertising you will ever do. Make sure you do it right.

If you have ever felt like more people would visit your tanning salon if they only knew it existed, chances are you are probably right. We at MLT Group have found this to be the case again and again with small businesses just like yours. What small businesses need more than anything else is to spread awareness online.

To succeed in this industry, you need your customers to know that you are the most trusted and professional tanning salon in your area. They need to know how your services are different from the competition, and most of all, they need to know you exist.

Have you been relying on your window sign and the phone book for customers to find your tanning salon? Today, more people find out about local businesses using the internet than the phone book. The internet has proven just as helpful for local businesses as global ones, today more than ever.

We understand how to work closely with you in order to send the right message to your customers. We build clean, efficient, attractive, and easy to understand websites that will convince visitors that your tanning salon is the real deal.

A website alone is not enough to successfully market your tanning salon online, however. Your website needs to be findable. This requires effective marketing using press releases and social media, which spread awareness about your brand.

Reputation and brand visibility are everything. As a massage therapist, you might not think that internet marketing can benefit you, or that you really need it.

At MLT Group, we have worked with massage therapists in the past, and have found that small businesses such as this can benefit dramatically from the services that we provide.

We work closely with our clients in order to understand exactly what message they are trying to get to their clients, what services they provide, and, crucially, how they are different from the competition. We use this information in order to design a highly attractive, easy to use, professional website about your massage techniques, and the benefits that you offer to your customers.

While we feel that our clients’ knowledge of the industry comes first, we also have the tools to perform research in order to determine what customers are searching for in the search engines regarding their industry.

Types of Advertising Agencies

Admin — Mon, 21 Mar 2011 23:23:33 +0000

When searching for an advertising agency to promote your business, product or service, it’s helpful to understand the types of advertising agencies available for contract.

Limited Service Advertising Agency

A limited service advertising agency is appropriate for those potential clients who already have certain ad capabilities in-house. These businesses may desire to create their own advertising strategy and monitor their own success, but need certain areas of expertise, such as ad design or media buying. A limited service ad agency specializes in one or two areas of advertising and provides only those services to its clients.

Interactive Advertising Agency

The advent of the internet and its use as a marketing tool has created a new category of agencies, the interactive advertising agency. These agencies do not create full service advertising plans, but rather focus on website design, search engine optimization and social media network campaigns to complement existing advertising strategies.

Full Service Advertising Agency

A full service advertising agency performs all advertising services for its clients, including strategy development, execution and monitoring. Full service agencies understand how to highlight and market the benefits of client services to meet client goals with a broad range of services, including ad design, media buying and internet marketing.

MLT Group is a full service advertising agency that excels at connecting websites to the people searching for services or products, using internet marketing services such as search engine optimization, social media marketing and press releases. MLT Group also can provide a variety of related services, including graphic design and video production, in order to affordably and effectively serve and enhance all your business advertising and marketing needs.

Website Design for Optometrists

Admin — Mon, 14 Mar 2011 11:42:24 +0000

People take their vision seriously, and want to know that their optometrist is highly qualified, professional, and well known. It has been our experience that an optometrist can greatly improve their success simply by increasing the number of people who are aware of their business. While you may not feel that marketing is something you have the time or money for, the fact of the matter is that compared to traditional advertising it takes very little investment to achieve a surprising amount of success on the internet.

At MLT Group, we have worked with optometrists and the owners of other small practices and business, and we have found that online marketing, when implemented smartly, can improve visibility dramatically. We always work together closely with our clients in order to determine the message that they are trying to send to their patients, and how they are different from the competition. We then use this information to create a website that is easy to use, pleasing to look at, and establishes you as the best optometrist in the area.

We feel that our websites are good enough to market themselves to some extent, but still understand the importance of spreading the word. This is why we also submit press releases where they will be found, read, and taken seriously. We use social media marketing in order to spread news about your business through word of mouth. We also use search engine optimization so that patients will be more likely to find you when they conduct an internet search.

MLT Group Advertising & Marketing offers professional website design for optometrists, including internet marketing services such as search engine optimization (SEO) and social media consulting.

Website Design for St. Paul MN Businesses

Admin — Mon, 21 Feb 2011 10:01:11 +0000

Developing an effective website for St. Paul MN businesses takes more than designing a site that is visually appealing. Especially if your goal is to increase a return on investment, a website becomes the core of your company’s worldwide visibility, search engine optimization, and social media networking efforts.

There are certain elements that must be taken into consideration when developing an effective website. A few that MLT Group closely examines are:

-Consumers must be able to easily navigate around a business website; if they find navigation to be a time consuming task they will not stay on the page very long.

-Any services or goods that are the “best-selling” for a business deserve to be displayed prominently on a website.

-Advantages and benefits that a business has to offer over competing businesses should be easily seen and readable on the website.

-A clear and easy-to-reach contact page or area should be available on a business website.

-Useless information or images should not be used to merely fill up space on a website, and design elements have a purpose.

-All texts found within a website should be easy to read.

All of these considerations, and many more, are tied together and implemented within a website in order for it to be effective. And websites that are created and designed to reach high rankings on search engine results pages helps to increase traffic, and can ultimately lead to an increase in sales.

If you are in the St. Paul, MN area and looking for someone to help you create an effective website, contact MLT Group today and see how we can help take your business to the next level.

Website Design for Minnesota Businesses

Admin — Mon, 14 Feb 2011 10:47:35 +0000

Minnesota business websites are primarily created to increase brand awareness and profit. But in order to be effective, a website must offer more to consumers than simply being visually appealing. And MLT Group has experience creating effective website designs for Minnesota businesses.

At MLT Group, here are just a few of the important elements we take into consideration when designing effective websites:

-We create web pages that are easy to navigate, because consumers do not often read text on pages that are time-consuming to navigate.

-We look at businesses best-selling goods and/or services and help to highlight them in a highly visible area.

-We inform consumers what a business has to offer that other competing businesses do not.

-We create an easy-to-get-to, easy-to-read contact page that informs consumers exactly how they can reach or contact the business they would potentially like to purchase or obtain goods and/or services from.

-We do not use meaningless and useless information to fill up space on a business website.

-All text found on a business website is easy-to-read, for both search engines and people.

We understand what it takes to increase traffic to business websites and what it takes to achieve high rankings on search engine results pages. Through our expertise we can help any business increase their profit level by providing consumers with web pages that enable enjoyable experiences online.

At MLT Group we understand the importance of building effective business networks in order to achieve mutual gain. In order to achieve the most success possible, Chambers of Commerce in modern society must take advantage of the capabilities of the internet. It is no longer enough to simply have a website, however. For Chambers of Commerce to effectively get in touch with their audience, it is important to design a user-friendly interface that is placed where people will find it.

This is accomplished through the use of various services such as search engine optimization, website design and development, and social media networks. MLT Group understands that people trust recommendations from friends and family above all else, and this makes social media networks a very important part of strengthening the effectiveness of Chambers of Commerce.

In addition to this, the way that most people find new information on the web is through the search engines. Search engine optimization can be used in order to ensure that a given Chambers of Commerce appears toward the top of the search results for specific keywords. The search engines have also begun to take a more local approach as well. At MLT Group, we understand how to target local traffic and put it in touch with local Chambers of Commerce.

For Chambers of Commerce to be taken seriously, they also must provide a website that offers full functionality to their visitors, as well as various resources. MLT understands how to help Chambers of Commerce achieve this in the most effective way possible.
