Testimonial

“Since I’ve entered into the realm of SEO with my own website and became a webmaster, I have dealt with some seedy companies. A piece of advice before you spend any money – do your homework. Finding SEO Competitors was a breath of fresh air and a blessing for me. The owner actually stayed up late on the phone one night to save me losing my rankings as I was switching my IP address…even though I was doing it through another company. Needless to say, when my current contract runs out, I am switching to this company. I find the staff at SEO Competitors is always willing to take the time to make me feel as important as their big accounts. If you are looking for a reliable SEO firm, I highly recommend this company.” – Michael Lambridge

As a part of the management process we will review:

Your search engine rankings on targeted search engines. Progress of the overall campaign for all keywords in targeted markets Progress of how well we’re meeting your objectives in terms of execution, time and results.

Receive your feedback

Project management includes measurement of visitor trending including Bounce Rate, Time on Site, Page Views, Keyword Referrals, Traffic Sources, Content Drill Down, Time Spent on Page and more. If particular keywords send referrals that do not convert at the desired rate and underperform in measurement goals, SEO Competitors switches efforts to more effective keywords that closely relate or are similar to the ones that drive the highest revenues.

How SEO Competitors Handles Project Changes?

From our experience, once work has begun on a project it may require changes to the execution and changes to the budget. Before commencing changes we identify challenges and consult with you.

Campaign execution changes due to industry-specific algorithms.

Google has developed various algorithms for a number of different industries to provide superior relevancy to users. Once identified – algorithms may require different optimization approaches. When this occurs, we notify you, explain the challenge and work out the best solution.

Discovery of new markets.

Markets on search engines are represented with keywords. If through ongoing keyword research we discover keywords where your company has no presence, we notify you and discuss possibilities.

Changes within your company.

Those changes are outside of our control, but we cater to all changes you may make within reasonable capacity.

If you have a new initiative in mind.

We want to target different market segments or have other project course changes – we will make necessary modifications. Your SEO professional will consult with you and come up with an initiative most suited to your goals. Please note that changes to the search engine optimization campaign 2-3 months in progress cannot be easily made and may damage planned results and require additional budget. Paid inclusion and pay per click changes can be made instantly.

SEO competitors retain 90% of our client accounts due to the strategic arm we provide to their operations. Your strategic relationship with us will not start in the first months of our partnership. It takes 3 to 6 months to produce search engine optimization results and you will want to see results first. It’s only logical – actions speak louder than words. Once our campaigns bring results and achieve your objectives, you are in a position to compare us to past service providers, our continuity and abilities to realize your goals. From this point on you can easily judge whether it makes sense to integrate our solutions into your operations on larger scale and develop a strategic relationship with us.

Do I Need Strategic Relationship in Search?

Every decision and move your company makes can have search implications and can be integrated into your search marketing campaign. New product developments, new service offers, new business courses – affect the way your company targets new customers. Every initiative can have a corresponding development on a search to maximize your reach in the online marketplace. Whenever your company makes a move, we can proactively react and execute a complimenting search engine marketing campaign.

You measure your return on investment with profits.

Measure ResultsDuring the course of optimization campaign you will observe your website climbing in search results, eventually to page 1. Once there, you can track an increase in visitor traffic with analytics software [Google offers it for free] and correlate a number of visitors to new customers/leads.

So there are 3 ways to measure your ROI:

• Profits
• Rankings on search engines
• Visitor traffic

Your returns will relate directly to your industry, competition, and demand for your offer. Some of our clients in the limousine service industry grew over 300%, tripling their fleet of vehicles, while large companies in the financial sector boosted annual earnings by 20%. Regardless of your industry and competition – our search engine marketing campaigns always provide you with at least a 200% return of whatever you invested.

Quality Takes Time

Time for ResultsFrom our experience it takes 3 to 6 months to reach the top placement on leading search engines [natural search engine optimization].The timeframe also depends on your industry, competition and the initial state of the website.

IMPORTANT NOTICE:

Please keep in mind the difference between blacklisted optimization techniques and ethical SEO services. “Black” [those who use banned methods] search engine optimization service providers may offer a shorter timeframe, however, once caught in the act, your website will be at least temporarily removed from search results. We recommend an ethical approach to optimization, which takes more time but produces a higher yield in the long run. Find out more at SEO Ethics & Guidelines.

Why Does it Take So Long?

Quality optimization services take time due to the trust factor incorporated into search engines. Search engines will not allow websites to the first page unless proof of quality is abundant. That proof is represented with link popularity, high relevancy pages, and click rate. In other words, search engines are very careful about who they allow to the first page. Our task is to satisfy search engines via an array of specialized search engine optimization services.

Just to name a few:

• Increase your website traffic 200% – 14,000%
• Drive qualified visitors who want to do business with your company. Visitors qualify themselves because they get to search engines, type in keywords and click on your website instead of competitors. Visitors are interested in your offer; otherwise, they would never click on your site.
• Get your applications, trial downloads, orders, leads, and sales – UP, as a result of increased traffic.
• Get the best search positions on search engines such as: Google, Yahoo, and MSN. Protect those positions against competition and algorithm changes.
• Attract customers from Canadian and American cities. Target customers by their local regions. Target customers in 10 Canadian provinces, 3 territories, and 50 American states.
• Get your brand more visible on search engines. Use a search to develop stronger brand awareness.

Not interested yet? How about:

• Create custom search engine marketing campaigns, which you can direct at your target audience, in specific geo-locations.
• Target business decision-makers looking for solutions. Capture those decision-makers as leads and turn them over to your sales department.
• Fully translate your pages into French and target Quebec province with specially designed French search engine marketing campaigns.
• Know which keywords deliver the highest amount of sales, which keywords help you attain future customers and which keywords your website MUST have search engine presence for.
• Optimize your shopping cart or content management system for automatic search engine optimization.

Once attained positions need nurturing. Search engines such as Google, Yahoo and Microsoft employ over 10,000 people(each) and spend millions to develop, improve and advance search algorithms. Due to rapid development and changes in mathematical algorithms, technology, and strategies, websites experience fluctuations in rankings.

Maintenance Service

Maintenance Service aims to keep your search engine positions, after the initial search engine optimization campaign. It addresses variable essentials required to keep your positions intact such as constant addition of fresh content via search engine copywriting service and addition of links via link enhancement service.

Changes in Algorithms

We monitor your website for search engine position changes and maintain multiple internal sites designed to observe, uncover and spot changes in search algorithms.  If your rankings drop, we will deliver your website back to previous positions as a part of our service.

Protection Against Competition

Competition can also impact your rankings. Competition can target exact keywords, get above your positions and eventually get a larger share of the market. In case your competition enters the search engine optimization game, we will run competitor analysis and take the necessary steps to counter react and safeguard your positions on search engines.

SEO CompetitorsAdvantage as Your Strategic Partner

As search becomes mainstream, more and more companies optimize their websites for visibility. To attain, preserve and benefit from long term search engine visibility your service provider must have 360-degree awareness of the developments, changes, and improvements in search engine algorithms.

Ethics and Guidelines set out by search industry leaders:

• Google Webmaster Guidelines
• Yahoo Search Content Guidelines
• Microsoft Site Owner Policy
• Ask.com Site Policies

The implications of breaking quality guidelines can be drastic to revenues and to overall marketing campaigns. We fully understand the weight of the consequences and guarantee to never use any blacklisted methods mentioned by the search engines, methods listed below or any new techniques developed by the “Black Hat” search engine optimization community.

SEO guidelines and ethnics

SEO guidelines and ethnics have been put out by the search engines in order to assist search engine optimization professionals willing to respect quality standards driving the worldwide search industry. The rewards garnered through ethnical optimization result in long-lasting revenue sources, as a quality SEO company will increase the relevancy of search results and benefit:

• Prospective Searchers – allow searchers to easily find and initiate a business relationship with your company.
• Your Business – drive pre-sold customers via targeted keywords.
• Search Engines – assist search engines in displaying relevant, high-quality results.

We have successfully engaged in ethical search engine optimization for both small, medium and large companies, with each and every customer prominently placed on the first page. We have never engaged in blacklisted techniques and choose a route of ethnical SEO over short term gains. For you, as our client, apart from proactive SEO maintenance, we guarantee one less concern in marketing campaign management.

Blacklisted Search Engine Optimization Practices

The use of the following techniques will result in: position penalty, temporary website removal or permanent blacklisting from search results. Once spotted, Google, Yahoo, and MSN have no algorithmic empathy and take action immediately. There has been a number of incidents where websites were penalized and have never regained the previous status.

Invisible Text

Blending keywords and text to the background color, in order to game search engine algorithms into assigning high relevancy score.

Cloaking

Showing different versions of a website to search engines and searchers. Users see a normal page, while search engines see unnaturally optimized, keyword-rich page.

Keyword Stuffing

Stuffing pages with targeted keywords, making the content of low quality and nearly unreadable. Spamdexing Similar to keyword stuffing, where pages are excessively stuffed with keywords. Spamdexing includes keywords and links to completely unrelated websites in an effort to gain more traffic.

Long Term Optimization

What good is a short term fix? Search engine optimization techniques that break SEO ethics & guidelines are aimed at gaming algorithms through loopholes overlooked by search engines. Once spotted, they are quickly diffused.

Banned search engine optimization techniques

It is a valid argument that banned search engine optimization techniques make search engineers work harder, bringing a degree of balance to the industry. SEOs that use unethical methods look for the holes, while engineers patch up the holes and improve algorithms. Using blacklisted methods is a short term strategy. If you are looking to launch aggressive, ethnical search marketing campaigns, SEO Competitors can help. Please explore our search engine optimization services. We abide by the SEO Ethics & Guidelines and never put your website under risk.

Social media marketing is the biggest thing to hit the marketing world. Social marketing uses the power of networking to spread the word about a brand, website or product. Social media can be hard to navigate as a beginner, but it’s entirely possible to utilize the power of these websites to promote whatever it is you want to promote.

1. Build Pages On All Social Outlets

It sounds like a daunting and time-consuming task, but having a profile on the major social-media websites can give your company a boost. It gets your name out there, and it allows customers to find you easily in a number of ways. You can share links on each of these pages to get recognition too.

2. Talk To Fans

Some websites are integrating a system that makes your posts visible to a select amount of people. This can be frustrating. Talk to your fans as often as possible on your page. Encourage conversations between fans with creative posts. People talking is always a good thing.

3. Make A Call To Action

Telling your fans to share a post is the easiest way to get it spread around. It may seem overly simple, but it really works. Those trigger words make people want to share with their friends. If it’s something relevant or important, they are more likely to share it. If you are having a contest or giveaway, this increases the number of shares.

4. Host A Giveaway

Giveaways are an easy way to get new fans. They encourage conversation too. If a giveaway is relevant to your company, then find a way to incorporate that into your social-media marketing. As the giveaway goes on, watch the increase in fans and activity on your page.

5. Post Often

Frequently posting content to your pages and your websites will draw people in. No one wants to interact with a company or page that rarely updates. It is easy to be forgotten in a fast-paced world. Keep your fans engaged by posting lots of fresh content each day.

6. Offer Subscriptions

Offering subscriptions for your content or website is the best way to keep people engaged. You should routinely encourage fans to subscribe to you through your social pages. This will increase traffic, purchases and interaction with your company.

7. Meet People Where They Are

Following tags on popular sites and reaching out is the best way to make people follow back. If you notice a photo, post or comment that is promoting your company, respond to that person. This kind of interaction makes people feel important and special. It makes them feel like a person and not another customer. It’s a good strategy for all companies to follow. Meet your fans where they are instead of making them find you.

8. Be Friendly

Being friendly will go a long way. The customer is always right. Be sure to present your company in the best light possible. This will give you a strong presence in the social-media world, and that is what you want.

Our qualified team creates a search engine optimization plan on a personalized level.

Most of the time, when an individual or company begins to establish their online presence (i.e. creates a website), they usually do so without hiring or consulting a relevant authority (firm or individual) on how to properly optimize during its initial development. This is a mistake that usually costs them dearly later on down the road. The following will give you an idea of just how much it may cost you, if you choose to ignore the SEO + Web Design component right from the start. After your site gets indexed by the search engines, it is going to be harder to change their view later on down the road. For example, if you are not satisfied with your website’s traffic and want to hire someone to add more of an SEO component to it, you may have to wait a long time before the search engines recognize these new changes. You see, by this time your site has already been “indexed” and it could take up to a month or longer to review the new design and/or content. This being the case, wouldn’t it just make more sense to get in good with the search engines right from the start?

Optimize your website

It will cost you more money. When you hire a firm to develop and optimize your website “in-house”, they usually offer you a package deal, which cuts down the cost of performing these tasks separately. What is more, if your website is not SEO compatible right from the start, you will most likely have to continue running “SEO campaigns” time and time again to keep your site ranking high on the searches. With Web Design geared to rank on search engines, your site is fully optimized, from the beginning It makes the process harder. Not only will you make it more difficult for yourself if you do not optimize your site during the design process (more time spent looking for the right SEO professional and/or more money spent revamping or rebuilding your site later on), but it will make it harder for any SEO specialist you do end up hiring to do a proper job. They can only work with what they have been given. So, if your site is not SEO-friendly to begin with, they may not be able to do what is needed to fully optimize it. Now, although these are just some of the problems:that can occur when you do not consider designing your site with SEO in mind, lets take a look at it in more positive terms and see what you can gain by doing so.

Save time and money

You save time. Your website will be built already optimized the first time around. This means there will be no need to re-index your site, look for an SEO specialist, or have it built from scratch — again. You save money. Hiring one company that can build an “optimized website” will be much cheaper than doing it at different times and through different channels. There is a lot of redundant work that goes along with web design and SEO, so you could be billed for the same work more than once by doing it at different stages. You avoid hassles. You will never need to worry about having to redesign your site in the future because it is not SEO compatible. Nor will you have to deal with two teams (one for web design and the other for SEO) not being able to agree upon a suitable platform in which to incorporate them both (SEO and Web Design). Your Web Design team will make sure that your website looks good, is user-friendly, and ranks high in the search engines from the “ground up”. What is more, if they happen to face any difficulties, they are in a better position to rectify it, since the SEO and the web design teams work together, and therefore can communicate with each other more effectively and efficiently. In conclusion, combining SEO and Web Design can be quite challenging, yet extremely rewarding at the same time. The good news is that if you hire a reputable company to do all of this for you, you experience all of the rewards and none of the challenges.

3 Major Issues to Be Considered

Want to be ready for the upcoming global expansion? Have a mind to face a challenge and transform your web presence into international? Use a can-do approach and remember: forewarned is forearmed. All you need to know before conquering new foreign markets are the basics of International SEO. There are three essential concepts that should be taken into account and this article will inform you about them.

Preparatory Stage: What are Your Major Goals?

It is crucial to begin the entire process from the deep analysis of your target market. Decide if to concentrate your attention on a region (Europe), a specific country (Germany) or a spoken language (for example, German). The mentioned above concepts will essentially impact all other follow-up actions. Ask yourself what are your strengths and weaknesses with regard to your current content management system and various IT solutions including localization of URLs, handling with directories and etc. Also, it is recommended to review external factors that may influence your activities (such as specific legal requirements and etc.).

1. Optimization Concepts

When carrying out strategic keywords analysis, stick to a local level so as to know what queries are the most relevant for your niche. Learn the basics of page optimization and apply them in practice: insert meta descriptions, target keywords in URLs, title tags, header tags and remember about 100% unique page content. In order to gain the trust of potential clients in your target area or region, you should concentrate your attention on inbound links from regional websites. Thus, if you are targeting Germany, focus on getting links from German authors and resources. Yes, the basics of link building are still effective: the more relevant is your content, the greater are your chances to get a link. Another essential step is to optimize videos and pictures with regard to localized titles, alt-texts and headlines. Oftentimes optimization of pictures can be considered as a relatively easy opportunity to attract additional traffic to your web pages.
