Competitive Analysis

This is possibly one of the tougher divisions of Seo web development.

There are many variables making up a companies competitive web analysis and
if possible, if you in the position its s best to do the competitive web
analysis as one of your first priorities.

Either way it is something that has to be addressed especially if it was not
part of you initial web development process.

This could have far reaching results within your web development
architecture and structure, but rather do it now than later.

We check the top ten positioned competitor websites on search engines,
relative to the keywords describing your company and industry fields the
best.

We then do an in depth competitors analysis on the top ten competing
websites. This will include detailed attention to their landing pages and
overall design. we will check how many and who links back to them.

The five steps we implement with Competitive Analysis

Identify the competitors
Analyse the keywords the are targeting
Analyse the competitor back links and page rank
Get the competitors traffic analysis
Analyse there popularity with social media and the internet

We need your assistance to gather market intelligence about your
competitors. You know you business and sector best. You also know who your
closet competitors are. The more data and information you can supply us, the
more effective we can be.

There are three types of competitors to consider:

Direct competitors - those in the direct market producing the exact same
product or services as you.
Indirect competitors- those supplying the same sector with alternative
options to your product or service.
Future competitors - to be aware of new competitors entering the market and
analysing their marketing tactics.

What we find out about your competitors

Are they implementing a rapid growth strategy? What marketing tactics are
they using?
Are there competitors with struggling finance who are limited with cash flow
presently? A perfect opportunity.
How do competitors assume the current market place? Where are the
opportunities?
How will competitors respond to your competitive threat?


my motto is "Keep it simple" and "don't leave anything for tomorrow that can
be done today."

The REAL Value of Keywords

An important question in SEO is how much intrinsic value resides in a specific keyword and, whether SEO has the potential to take everybody on a fool's errand? When it comes to bigger companies, for instance, can a massive SEO investment in trying to achieve top ranking for almost-generic, ultra-competitive keywords be worth all the disappointment and soul-searching? Surely, in so many cases, there has to be a better way? At the other end of the scale are smaller companies with a limited marketing budget, particularly in the business-to-business sphere. There is often a fine balance to achieve when it comes to investing in SEO for what can only be low-traffic keywords in niche sectors, even where higher gross margins per sale indicate otherwise. Realizing this, many companies will skip the on-line sales dance, or resign themselves to having a website that is little more than an 'on-line brochure' presence or a support mechanism for Pay-Per-Click or social media activities. ...

Get More Visitors to Take an action When visiting your Website

When you start out in the blogosphere, there are two words that you hear over and over again. 1. Content - Because let's face it, if you're not writing anything, your blog is going to be pretty lonesome 2. Traffic - The rationale being that if no one is visiting your content, you can't do much, including make money I'd like to toss something out there though that not a lot of people seem to talk about, and that's quality in your content and in your traffic.

Right? The two modes of blogging Now, there are two ways that people strive for that goal. The more predominant way is to play the blogging game as if you were a commercial fisherman. The commercial fisherman uses gigantic nets, and ...

What Is Internet Website Content?

What Is Internet Website Content? Content is made up of multiple elements, and is primarily the; * On-page visible text * Images and image Alt text * Anchor text in hyperlinks to internal or external pages * Hyperlink titles in links and menus * The descriptive Title and Description meta-data In the context of Google, a picture is NOT worth a thousand words! Moreover, words must be accessible, not embedded in images or Flash movies, JavaScript, slide shows etc. In 15 years as an SEO consultant, if there's one common denominator evident on websites, it's that there is a profound reluctance to expend time, money, and creative energy on unique text content. Brevity is the watchword - economical use of words is encouraged by design, branding and marketing advisers! * The branding gurus want you to use the textual equivalent of sound bites - bullet points and short sentences! * The website designers want the entire content of the page to be above ...
