Choose The Right Keywords
Thursday, October 8th, 2009An SEO Service can help you select the right keywords. A good affordable seo service that is. Why are keywords important? Because that is where it all starts. Spend your time on the wrong keywords can be a costly mistake. That is why it wise to use a professional seo service that understands the importance of keywords and how they will make or break your seo campaign. A bit of advice – do NOT fall in love with your keywords. A recent client of mine insisted that his market had only one keyword phrase that mattered. That phrase did indeed have a good volume of search, but I pointed out to him that it had another meaning, and that alternate meaning had no commercial intent or relevance to his website at all. I suggested a different set of keywords that my research showed to be potentially profitable, but he would not be persuaded. He “loved” his keyword, and it was the only one he wanted to optimize for. I even wrote up his work proposal with a disclaimer that I did not believe it was a keyword to pursue. Well, we optimized for it, and 5 weeks later we made page 1 of Google. We eventually wound up at #3 before the customer admitted he could do nothing to convert the traffic to sales. There is a happy ending. We wound optimizing for a small set of key phrases that sent some decent traffic. We also found a couple other sources of PPC traffic that converted nicely!
