With the growing use of internet throughout the world, internet traffic is increasing everyday, and more people are using their desktops and smartphones for research shopping, buying insurance etc. This trend continues to create opportunities for businesses to market their products and services to billions of online customers.

However, marketing products and services on internet can be overwhelming with the number of options available.  Is it best for me to use pay per click (PPC), Google adwords, mobile marketing, social media, local marketing or search engine optimization.  What is all of this stuff?  Is there overlap?  Where do I start?  This is a question business owners should be asking themselves if they want to give their business a competitive advantage.  So, what is the solution? The answer is, it depends...  What are your goals?  What is your budget?  Who are you targeting?  However, regardless of the answers to the above, the first and most important foundation of any online strategy is SEO.  Without a quality SEO campaign your chances of getting found diminish quickly. 

So what is SEO?  First, SEO stands for search engine optimization.  SEO is an internet marketing strategy aimed at improving the search ranking of a business website on internet so that it is visited by potential customers. Without proper promotion, the your pages will get lost in cyberspace. Wait did they just say pages?  What about my site?  Very important to note, Google ranks pages not websites.   Meaning each page needs to be treated as its own individual "mini-website"  Don't take this to literally... In short, what I'm saying is each page needs unique, interesting content for your users to review and unique relevant data within the code, aka SEO, to ensure Google is picking up what you want them to.  

For example, if a local business in Denver is engaged in providing car repair services to local customers, it will naturally want to attract customers in Denver.  What does this mean for SEO?  First, does your home page say anything about car repair or Denver?  Yes.  Good.  Next, does your page title say anything about car repair or Denver?  No.  Houston, we have a problem.   SeoSkye, based in Denver, experts will use effective SEO tools and local search techniques in order to get top ranking for the website in search results.
