Search Engine Optimization and Submission

The fact that you have visited this page shows that you realize to some extent the importance of search engine positioning. The vast majority of people think once their site has been designed and uploaded to the web the visitors will visit it.  Search engine positioning is a process of optimizing your website to achieve targeted visitors and high rankings in all the important search engines. The vast majority of website design companies do not have the skills to achieve the rankings and visitors you require to make YOUR business successful on the web.

To give you an example of our search engine positioning skills, lets look at Wize Dezigns. Google is by far the most important search engine on the web. This engine is where most of your traffic is likely to be coming from. One of our most important keyword phrases is "website design Hudson Wisconsin". If you go to google.com and type in their search box "website design Hudson Wisconsin", you'll get a return of well over 290,000 pages.  At this time Wize Dezigns comes in 1st. Type in "website design Wisconsin" and you will find us in the top 50 out of 10,700,000! While we get a large amount of local business through word of mouth, most of our nationwide business is a result of our search engine success and so will your business if you let us help you.

Most people who are searching for a website design company on the internet would use those words, or very similar. You may have used those words yourself and found us, so that's a lot of targeted visitors for Wize Dezigns. As you can see, search engine positioning can be the making or the breaking of your business so please consider YOUR positioning specialist very carefully.

(Q) Do you offer any guarantees on your search engine optimization services?

(A). No but we're confident that the initial optimization carried out on your website will get you top ten rankings for your most important keyword phrase. The search engines change their algorithms now and again which means you might drop some places! This means your site would need tweaking to recover your rankings which may take sometime to filter through. It's the search engine optimization specialists job to do this.  We know this because we have been through all the changes that have occurred in the last few years.

(Q) How does Wize Dezigns differ from other search engine optimization companies?

(A) We won't make promises we can't keep! Our optimization prices are very realistic, in fact, we challenge you to find a search engine optimization company that could give you a better service for the prices we charge.

(Q) Do you have a set pricing structure for your optimization services?

(A) Yes. Our search engine optimization starts at $500.  This includes consultation and manual submission to the top 5 search engines. (Yahoo, Google, Netscape, AOL and MSN)

(Q) How long after the optimization has been carried out can I expect to see results?

(A) If you wait to be picked up by the engines it could be months! Anyhow, it's a slow process and your visitor numbers should still be climbing three months after the initial optimization.

(Q) Can optimization be carried out on any website?

(A) Optimization can be implemented into any website. However, dynamically built sites and "Flash" sites are limited to what you can do. There are methods to get dynamic sites ranked very highly but we don't use those methods because they're unethical and short-lived solutions.  We recommend redesigning the site and making it more "keyword friendly."

(Q) If my website achieved high rankings after being optimized, would it stay there?

(A) It depends. A lot is dependent on the search engines and their algorithms (what they like to see in a page). You could hold your position for many months without any additional work. Then again, you could drop after a month. When this happens the website will need tweaking to regain your rankings. This charge will vary based on your needs.

(Q) Have all the highly ranked websites got to their top rankings through search engine optimization?

(A) Some sites are branded (household names) which makes it quite easy to get top rankings. Others get there through spamming the search engines in some way. But their success is likely to be very short lived!

(Q) I've been told I need hundreds of links from other sites to make it to the top of the rankings, is this true?

(A) Search engines do put a lot of relevance on links that point to your site. A link pointing to your site is like giving your site a good vote. What's more important, is the site that is linking to yours is of good quality, has good PR (page rank), and better still is related to the products or services that you're marketing on your website. Ten links from good quality sites with good PR that are related to yours in some way is better than a hundred links from poor quality unrelated sites.
