Getting on to page 1 of Google searches pertaining to search terms that relate to your business is vital in terms of getting clients For Free and in having a successful business.
As you can see and verify we have managed to get on to page 1 of Google searches for the above search terms and even more search terms. We will let you in on how we managed to do this in less than 2 years time. And we will let you in some some common misconceptions which should educate you as to what makes a website successful.
Myth:
When I was in the process of creating a website I read on another website that if I obtained 80 good link exchanges that is all that I needed to get sufficient number of website visitors who will become clients.
Fact:
Utter Nonsense!!!
What I discovered is that for normal link exchanges we will get almost zero traffic.
Good link exchanges on related sites and even in prominent locations such as content pages and home pages result in some traffic but certainly not enough to be able to sit back and take it easy as to a steady stream of website visitors.
The key is to get on Page 1 of Google searches for search terms that relate to your business.
Myth:
Many people think the design of their website and photo's are important as to developing a successful website.
Fact:
Search engines do not recognize design or photo's in their ranking of websites.
Myth:
When my website designer has completed my website and we are live the job is 90% complete.
Fact:
When your website designer has your site up and live the job is 5% complete.
There are many things that have yet to be done and it is unlikely your website designer will tell you about them.
The Keys to a Successful Website:
* Link, Links and more Links.
A ongoing link exchange program with websites in a similar industry/field.
* Adding Good Content.
A website with multiple pages of valued content is going to be rated higher on searches than a website with a single page.
* Ongoing Content Change.
I have never read of this but have discovered this for myself.
When we have made signigicant content changes to our website we have received more website visitors shortly thereafter.
* Register with DMOZ, Yahoo and Google yourself.
The minor search engines are insignificant compared to Google and Yahoo and you have to ensure you are registered with these 2 heavyweights and the sooner the better. With Google I have seen it take 6-8 weeks for them to recognize and rate a new website.
* Translator.
I am amazed to see websites selling their services to International customers and yet not have a FREE TRANSLATOR on their website for the benefit of foreign website visitors who do not understand English.
* StatCounter.
And I am amazed to see websites without a StatCounter.
To have a successful website you have to know how many visitors you are getting, how are they arriving at your website, what pages they view, which pages are the most popular, and other such statistics.
We use a Free StatCounter which supplies all of this information.
How on earth can someone have a website and not know about the people who are visiting the website. If I advertise in a magazine for example I want to see how many more visitors I received as a result of my promotion.
