Seach Engine Optimization

Search Engine Optimization (SEO)  consists of special work done on each page (on page optimizaation) and submissions made off page (e.g., submissions to directories)

Search Engine Submissions

Search engines routinely ‘crawl’ the web looking for new and updated websites.  We can, however, speed up this process by making submissions directly to these directories and search engines each time we make major changes to a website. There are litteraly thousands of earch engines and directlries on the internet, so submissions need to be targetted towards those relevant to your target audience.

Local Listings

We claim the address of your business on the local portions of major search engines, such as local.Yahoo.com Then your business can show up as a ‘pin prick’ on the map when listed in the search results.

Website Development using WordPress

WordPress is open source software used for both blogs and content management systems. The benefit of developing your website using WordPress is that you, the owner, can easily maintain some or all of the site, on your own timeframe, without paying a programmer to make changes. This allows your site to be updated much more frequently, which helps in high rankings on search engines.

Training on WordPress

We can provide one-on-one training to you so that you can maintain some or all of your WordPress websites.
