Well the good news is, Basic SEO is all about common sense and simplicity. The purpose of search engine optimization is to make a website as search engine friendly as possible. It’s really not that difficult. What happens is, user error for the most part. People try to sneak in advantages that don't work - like saying keywords over and over. The old trick of putting text that is the same color as the back ground at the bottom of a page loaded with keywords. I thought that went out at the turn of the century. Timberline Group New Media can approach your SEO intelligently, and help you achieve better ranking. We will never say we can get you to the top of search engines because that claim can not be honestly made. We can hope for that, and certainly create a site capable of that, but be leery of any person or company claiming to be able to do so. On a side note, if they claim that ask if they are willing to get paid after you spent a year at the top. End of that story. But here's the thing,
Basic SEO doesn’t require specialized knowledge of algorithms, programming and taxonomy but it does require a basic understanding of how search engines work or better yet - what they want to see. They want clean design. Simple is always better. Use ALT tags for your images. Keep your keywords in your meta tags short. 15 to 20 words and phrases. Make sure you have relevant links that help people, give them info and such. If your web page or site is just an infomercial, just info on you and what you do well,...how popular are infomercials? Meaning you don't see ad's promoting them. You don't even see them listed in a guide. It usually says To Be Announced. It's the same thing with a search engine in a way. Unless your site offers something more than a sales pitch, it's treated as such. This is why it's good to have a blog, or links to other things so people can buy your product or service and then go enjoy it somewhere. Links to partners, or products that enhance yours. Give tips, advices, offer something. It's a good place to start. There is a science behind SEO but you can improve your reach with just a few simple steps.
