Does your business need more customers?

Graphic from: http://seo-zoom.blogspot.com/

I've been asked to blog about search engine optimization (SEO). Now, if you're like most people, the mere words send you into a fit of anxiety, or maybe you have never even heard of it. SEO seems confusing and practically impossible to anyone who does not understand the way that search engines work, so I'd like to use this post to clear up a few things.

First, what is SEO? Put very simply, it involves using different methods and keywords to boost the rank of a website in results from a search engine. SEO is necessary for businesses to get more views to their website, but also to make sure that the people viewing are actually looking for their product or service and then eventually converting them into customers.

So how is ultimate SEO achieved? That can seem really confusing, but once you have an understanding of how the search engine algorithms work to find websites, you can use that knowledge - with keywords about your web content - to place your website at the top of relevant search results. Unfortunately, those algorithms are constantly changing and it can be a full time job just keeping up with them.

Luckily there are experts out there who do just that. You can hire a digital advertising company like 3Sixty Interactive and they will make sure that your website has great rankings in relevant searches. They are experts on SEO, e-mail marketing, social media and all things web. Let them take care of all of your digital advertising so that you have more time to build your business.
