A recent Advertising Age article entitled “Facebook Will Rule the Web During the Next Decade“  gave us some food for thought. Even if you do not agree with its bold prediction, the article has a bigger message: it points to the impact that social networking has had on the way we live and the way we do business. Whether or not you use Facebook, you have to be aware that many internet users turn to Facebook not only to connect with friends, but to get information and increasingly, to conduct business transactions.

The article mentioned that some businesses let consumers purchase products via Facebook without ever sending them to their individual websites. Other businesses do not actually conduct transactions via Facebook, but they do use it as a tool to build relationships with and get feedback from customers.

Depending on the nature of your organization, using Facebook may or may not be a good idea for improving and get more business. However, using the internet to do all you can to connect with the public is a great idea.

Have you found that you are really not sure what your customers want? Do you wonder if certain products are being well-received? Even if you have impressive sales figures, you still need to reach out to your customers. You may learn surprising things: for example you could find out that customers have found new uses for your products. You could make the most of that information using Orange County search engine optimization , if you were aware.

Whether you want to delve into social networking, or improve your customer outreach through your current website, the Orange County SEO consultants at Increase Visibility can help. We can help you with Orange County SEO  so that more people find your website when they are online.

The little things really do make a big difference and when it comes to getting better SEO (search engine optimization) in Orange County, you will find that paying attention to the tiniest details can really add up.

We have mentioned before the importance of keywords. And that if you do not know the kind of keywords an internet user would use to try to find your website, the Orange County SEO consultants at Increase Visibility can help you figure this out. We offer affordable search engine optimization in Orange County and beyond, starting with our free website analysis.

Beyond keywords, they are all kinds of other little ways to connect with customers that may slip through the cracks if you are not careful. Here are a couple of examples:

Acronyms
Yes, they are confusing, can change from industry to industry and are not always helpful when they appear in certain documents…but they can make a difference in Orange County search engine positioning. Why? Internet users use acronyms all they time, even though many keyword tools do not. Does this mean that you should replace all phrases with commonly used acronyms? Certainly not. What you can do is mix it up or find a way to include the acronyms as well as the complete phrase so that you can reap the SEO benefits and attract more business.

Single vs. Plural
Since we spend a lot of time contemplating SEO and best practices, we have tried typing in certain items as singular and plural to see if the results change. We can assure you that your potential customers probably will not do this–and that is okay. It is up to you to find ways to make sure your online content refers to your products in singular and plural formats so that you can reach as many customers as possible.

 
Google users are now also able to change just how they view the information they request in searches. They can choose:

 
Related Searches: This means that a Google user can get a several lists with searches that relate. Some people would tell you that you should just optimize for every possible thing. We would not advocate that approach. You should, however, be certain to optimize for a range of subjects that are truly related to your business. Increase Visibility offers a free website analysis  to see if your website is making the most of the keywords used to find organizations like yours.
Timeline: With this option, a Google user can see search results grouped by dates. For those who are searching for time-specific content, this will make things a lot easier.
Wonder Wheel: If you have read up a little on education, you know that some people are visual learners. For this people, lists don’t quite work. This is where something like the Wonder Wheel comes into play. The main topic is in the center of the wheel and related topics are spun off onto spokes.
Take some time to play with these new search options to get a feel for the many ways in which someone can come across your organization. This will help you to understand more about the importance of organic search placement. You want to be in the places where people who are looking for you will be able to find you, but you don’t want to force it. If you try to stuff your website with what you think are popular keywords just because. Doing that means that people who are not looking for you will get to your site and may not find is useful. In the meantime the people who would benefit from connecting with you, may not get to you.

Today, this industry is in trouble. I’m sure it will survive, but there is no doubt that things will have to change in order for it to thrive. I will also add that this notion of “seeing what sticks” pre-dated serious internet use, so that it was not possible to use to web to learn consumer habits the way it is now.

As much as we are in favor of “doing what comes naturally” and “going with the flow,” you should know that improving your search engine optimization in an organic way does involve some analysis of data and an examination of website usage.

When it comes to your website and web traffic, there is no need to play guessing games. You do not have to keep throwing up new things to see if they work. We can help you look at your site usage to determine how people are using your site, which pages are “sticky” (keep internet users interest for the longest periods of time), and the most popular keywords that people use to find your site.

Once you get an analysis with a breakdown of the terms people are using to search for products or services, we can help your organize your site in a way that goes with and not against the natural tendencies of your customers. You will also see the average amount of times each month those terms are searched on so we can determine which terms will provide the most traffic and this highest ROI.

When you employ Increase Visibility, you will see the enormous benefits of becoming highly ranked for your industries specific search terms. Some of these benefits include: higher sales volume, better brand recognition and increased market share. Increase Visibility excels in providing SEO services and our clients include many Fortune 1000 companies.

People tend to put more faith in organic search results than in paid or sponsored results. This does not mean that sponsored results do not get attention, however. What it is does mean is that although a search engine is not a trusted friend, people treat it as if it were. Web users rely on search engines to work as a virtual grapevine that sifts through the plethora of available information to let them know what really matters most.

You ask your friends to recommend service providers because you trust their judgment. You figure that they won’t steer you wrong because if they had a good experience then you will too. It is the same with organic search results. Unlike paid advertisements, organic search results let someone else sing your praises. This is why web users like to relay on organic searches to present them with the options that seem most legitimate. The algorithms behind search engine results are complicated, but in part they do reflect website options that were preferable to large numbers of internet users,

A Large Number of Factors Go Into Search Engine Placement

Did you know that Google uses more than 150 different criteria as they try to figure out where your website should  fall in search results? This means that like the person who talks over every aspect of a decision, Google has a lot on its mind when it is selecting which websites will rise to the top and which will sink to the bottom. And of course Google is not forthcoming about sharing exactly what these criteria are or how they may change. They are not going to reveal their recipe and have everyone else cooking up a monster search engine.
