Great press releases get people to listen.

5 tips for preparation, writing and/or distribution of SEO press release.

1. Research keywords. Perform the research necessary to understand the correct keywords.

2. Use SEO tactics in writing press release. Use keywords to posititon the press release within online resources.

3. Make it interactive – the more elements in the press release, the deeper the connection with the audience and the more it can be linked back to.

4. Write the press release in the same way you would write any other online content – make sure it shows up when a user searches an engine like Google for related content.

5. Make it useful to the reader – don’t write an article just to market some product, service or company. Write something that people want to read, that educates and engages the reader. It may have its roots in marketing, but it needs to be compelling copy.

Including links to other sites would be a good way to increase PageRank.  Like co-marketing this method could be used with target market companies to increase traffic on my site.

Well written, engaging content is what drives people and search engine crawlers to a website.  It has been proven that organic sites get much more traffic than paid sites.

Keyword research, density, proximity as well as Meta tags, URL structure and internal links are all critical to understand as a content writer in concept.  It helps to know the background of how the technology works in order to craft a piece that will be successful when being searched for.

Most important is that the writer connects with the audience and pulls readers into the site by writing interesting and informatively; all the technical stuff can be added on as icing.

Websites success lies in SEO

The following are two dates in history that I feel held significance for SEO.

In January of 2001, Allan Dick became Vintage Tub and Bath’s general manager, and savior.  Mr. Dick was interested in, and began researching SEO opportunities for his company.  Since, implementing SEO techniques, Vintage Tub and Bath has increased their gross revenues by 1700%, turning them into the lead supplier of reproduction bathroom fixtures. This phenomenal increase came about as a direct result of SEO.  You can now find Mr. Dick speaking at Search Engine Strategy conferences.

In November 2005, Google implemented a 3-part update program which essentially changed the way websites are ranked.  First, the age of your site became pertinent to the ranking.  The older the site, the higher the rank.  Second, the history of your web pages would now play a role in the ranking of your site.  And thirdly, the way back links are counted had a part in higher or lower rankings.  The sites with longer standing links carried more weight than new links.  Google was attempting to get web owners to utilize their websites more efficiently rather than buying multiple sites and linking them.

SEO creates a buzz

I believe that Search Engine Optimization is an invaluable tool for businesses today.  The whole point of developing an on-line business is to expand your market and create sales.  Simply offering your name up as a dog groomer, along with a thousand other dog groomers, seems like a very hit and miss way of advertising.  SEO serves to raise the ranking of a particular website, therefore bringing in more visitors to that site.  This increased traffic volume is advantageous.  Building traffic to your website naturally adds up to increased awareness and increased revenue.  To sum it up, SEO gets the attention of the consumer and gives your business a much better chance of making the sale.

Candle company utilizes SEO

I have a struggling candle company.  You may have noticed, there are a lot of candle companies out there.  I happen to believe that my candles are special, so I want to build a website and sell them online.  Problem is that, although my candles smell fantastic…you can’t smell them through the monitor.  I have a fabulous website, filled with important information and beautiful pictures, but nobody seems to be visiting my site.  It’s clear that I need to use SEO techniques to get my candle company moving.  I must be ranked highly and be one of the first sites that my potential customers see when they Google “scented candles”.  Once I have their attention, I can make the sale.  Increasing the number of hits on my site is crucial to the success of my candle company.

Scented candles

I have created a scented candle company and want to build an on-line business.  I realize the importance of being ranked highly and how that can positively effect my success.  I believe that using an SEO technique, such as getting indexed would be a great place to start.  From there I would cross-link with complementary sites and of course utilize keywords within the site.  By putting these pieces together strategically, I think that I will have a greater draw to my site and, over time, build a higher ranking.  By attracting more visitors to my website, I hope to see increased sales.

It has become exceedingly important for a writer today to understand the concepts behind Search Engine Optimization because the writer compiles the content of the website.  The content that’s written needs to reach the targeted audience and is the driving force behind the website.  A writer versed in SEO techniques has the ability to direct the consumer in whichever way the client wishes.  Once you have their attention,  the writer is able to use his or her literary skills to entertain the reader and to provide responsible, quality information on the company, while strategically placing keywords and other SEO resources.  It is important for a writer today to have an understanding and utilize SEO, but ultimately that understanding should lead to integrating technology with creativity.

Internet has drastically changed the way businesses function today. Be it marketing, branding, attracting right talent or generating sales, internet has enabled businesses to carry out these crucial functions more efficiently. Points given below accentuate this notion further –
• The ‘M’ Factor – Large and established organizations can afford to spend millions on marketing and related activities for generating sales, whereas start-ups or smaller organizations can just dream about them. Internet marketing can circumvent this problem efficiently. Even business behemoths are resorting to internet marketing for increasing their reach in all realms of business advancement.
• Widening the Reach – Before the advent of internet, generating business from foreign markets was next to impossible. Country specific laws, infrastructure costs and transfer of money were the main problem, but not anymore. Setting up a website, which is marketed enough is bound to set the registers ringing, no matter where the business is located.

For many businesses, the internet can be an effective way to get the most out of advertising.

Advertising on Internet is an invaluable tool for businesses because it is the most measurable means of advertising in terms of gauging the viewership of its intended audience. Whereas businesses cannot measure the number of people who may or may not have viewed a newspaper ad, and can only have a very rough idea of how many people saw a television ad, assuming they were attentively watching, response to internet advertising can be measured very directly by how many times an ad link was visited and by whom. Also, with many people spending an increasingly large amount of time on the internet, internet advertising is becoming more and more advantageous in terms of putting the product name where it may catch the attention of a potential client.
