My wife and I have been online since the late 1970's and
started two online businesses in the 1980's. In the late 1990's we developed
independent websites for these businesses, but by 2002 our
primary income-making website's market was undergoing a dramatic change.
Our biggest source of customers had started to dry up. Our postal mailing list
wasn't producing the results it once did and the profits from online
auctions were being eaten up by their listing fees and other expenses. We needed to
develop new marketing strategies and make them work in a hurry. This
process led me to quickly absorb everything I could find about how search engines
operate and how to get the most out of their services. I have a strong background in
computers, and so, in less than 60
days after making some simple changes to our websites to suit the search engines, I had
more than doubled the amount of traffic they generated for our businesses. We were
suddenly outranking big companies like Disney, Wal-Mart, Toys-R-Us,
Barnes & Noble, and Amazon.com, as well as a host of medium-sized
art galleries and dozens of amateur websites who were all offering the same
goods and services as we were. With even more effort, after 90 days I had more than tripled our
traffic from search engines. When people searched for our vital keywords,
they found our website quickly and our listings highlighted the information that
made us look professional and reliable. The above was originally written in February of 2003. During that time, I had also begun to offer my web design services and my web services are my primary income sources. I started to help people who were posting questions in the Google help forums - first by simply participating online, and then on a paid professional basis. I started slowly with a client who ran an antique furniture business in England, and then with other small businesses. Over these past 8 years, the Internet has greatly matured and it's no longer so simple to achieve great rankings. The big companies dominate many markets and the number of small companies with their own websites has exploded. Through this time I've developed a simple approach to attracting qualified traffic to my clients' websites that keeps them performing well for the long term. If you're new to the world of search engine optimization, you can take advantage of
my experience both as a small businessman and a search engine marketing expert to
achive better results in a short time. Check out my Search Engine Optimization Services
