For more information visit NJ COmputer Doctors online: http://www.computerdoctorswebsitedesign.com
1) On Site SEO: Glossary pages are good content for SEO
2) On Site SEO: Use footer links sparingly and only link to your most important pages. Don’t waste pagerank on content that is worthless.
3) Search: You need to get your site in to the blended search results using images and video. A picture is worth 1000 words and people are clicking on it.
4) Keyword Research: Use Google Insights to make sure the keywords you are focusing on do not have declining interest.
5) Analytics: Measure your brand traffic and keyword traffic separately.
6) Analytics: Are you ranking #1 (or trying to rank #1) for a keyword that will not provide any real benefit to your business? Check that.
7) Keyword Research: Perform ongoing keyword research. The way people search changes.
8:) Competitive Analysis: Read competitors press releases. Are they using words that may change the way people search? Think "Kleenex, Xerox, Dell"
9) Keyword Research: Use Google Trends to check traffic trends in different markets. There may be emerging opportunities in other geographic areas..
10) Keyword Research: How long will it take to get a keyword converting? Will it be worth it when it does?

13) Landing pages: keep forms above the fold and make them as short as possible
14) Conversions: 3% to 5% is decent

18: Does your "Thank You" page cross sell or further engage? It should.
19: User experience: Screen size and resolution matters. Test, test, test

43: Check your analytics for pages that are getting links and no traffic and redirect them.
44: Always be testing and measuring results. Before you change something get a benchmark.
45: The order of links in the code is more important than the order of links in the user experience
46: Surface conversations about your product, service or brand that are happening

The Fundamentals of SEO
For more information please visit NJ Computer Doctors online at: http://www.computerdoctorswebsitedesign.com/
Clean Code
First off, it is always important to make sure your website is coded correctly and cleanly. Make sure that there are no errors in your HTML code, avoid overly nested tables, and keep it simple. A page loaded with scattered JavaScript, sloppy HTML, and tables within tables within tables are a nightmare to search engines when they try to crawl your site. Try to use CSS and DIV tags as much as possible and avoid too many tables. Try to keep flash movies to a minimum, and never ever make flash only websites as flash files don’t get crawled.
Content Content Content
If you don’t put lots of juicy text content in your website, then search engine crawlers will not find much to write home about. When you choose your keywords and key phrases, don’t just make a few meta tags and call it a day. It’s important to put relevant text content and links in your website using those keywords as well. Then when a crawler indexes your website, it will see all your text, links and headers that are relevant to your subject matter and rank you higher in results.
Links Links Links
Links are a very important part of SEO. First off, it’s important to have internal links through your site using your keywords and key phrases. It’s also important to get external links to your site using your keywords. There are many ways to do this, such as link exchanging, writing articles on article directories, blogging, forum posting and promoting via social networking sites.
These are just a few fundamental tips on how to properly optimize your web site. For these and other SEO Services, contact NJ Computer Doctors for more information.

Stop Sitting Around Waiting for Your Website to Magically Appear – You Need to Take Action!
For more information please visit NJ Computer Doctors online at: http://www.computerdoctorswebsitedesign.com/
Are you looking for a professional SEO company who can get your name and business to the top of the search engines? Have you been trying to rank in Google™ , Yahoo™ , or MSN™ and only had little or no results? Maybe you’re doing the wrong things? Using outdated and worthless techniques? Or maybe you have no idea where to start…
When starting out with a new website, many small business owners are of the “if you build it, they will come” mentality when they have a website built. The truth is this just won’t happen. If you don’t market your site and promote it in a way that gets search engine traffic, your website is probably costing you a lot more money than it is making you.
Quick SEO Tips
Here are some quick tips you can use right away to improve your site’s ranking.
1. Title tags – one of the most important keys to ranking is the title tag. Make sure each page has a unique title tag and use around 2 – 3 keywords, but make them so they create variations. If you serve a specific local or regional market, it can also be helpful to list your main location in the title tag. Using geo modifiers helps you to rank more quickly and show up for more buying keyword phrases.
2. Don’t Over Optimize – Don’t overoptimize the pages you want to rank well. I believe this is the main cause of the ‘Sandbox’ filter. The old way to get a site to rank was to have the keyword in the domain, the title, the h1 tag, an h2 tag, and the first sentence bolded and italicized. When you do this, it is obvious to a search engine that you are trying to rank for this keyword. Search engines don’t like to be manipulated, so you have to be more subtle. If your site is perfectly optimized and you’re moving up from #15 to #7 to #3 and then suddenly you disappear, then you’ve probably triggered this filter. There are exceptions. Sometimes, it is just the engine doing some recalculating. Other times, you’re getting filtered. Don’t overoptimize and you’ll be less likely to get filtered.
3. Links to links – Many people know that link building will help your site to rank better. But most people go about it the wrong way. If you want a page to rank and not fall back quickly, then you need to build links to your links. If all the pages that link to your page are brand new and have no backlinks of their own, then your page is not going to rank or it won’t rank for very long. In addition to building links to your main pages, you have to build links to your links.
4. Website Speed – If you’re website is slow, your visitors will notice, and they will probably leave quickly. Make sure your website loads quickly and doesn’t have any problems displaying in the most common browsers.
5. Fresh, Engaging Content – I shouldn’t even have to say this, but to rank well and keep on ranking well, you really need to have fresh, high quality content on your site. What do you offer that differentiates you from everyone else? Make sure the content on your site is fresh and interesting, and your rankings will stick.
Instead of trying to do this all by yourself, let me help you. Don’t waste any more time. Fill out the form on our website or call us today at (201)290-4254 to receive a free consultation. Or you can click away from this page and keep on getting mediocre results from your search engine rankings.
