Content is STILL King
2007 has brought no change in the hierarchy of SEO marketing. Content is still the most important part of any SEO marketing plan; without it, your Web site would never obtain the improved rankings you expect. But all content is not equal and as search engines become more sophisticated, so must your SEO program and Web site content.

Search engines look for not only FRESH content, but also RELEVANT content on each Web page. This means that each piece of content you add to your Web site should provide useful information for your visitors. Search engines like natural keywords and will rank your site more highly if the content contains relevant keywords and updated information.


Tip of the Month

Cal Coast can build an SEO marketing plan that not only helps attract more visitors to your site, but helps turn those visitors into customers by developing fresh and relevant content for your Web pages. Whether you’re hoping to increase your home sales to newlyweds or improve your contact rate with teachers or any other particular group, these marketing tips can help improve your current marketing strategy.

1. Visibility is more important than ability! The more people that know about your business or service, the more business you can expect to receive. This is why SEO marketing is so important. By increasing your rankings, you can expect more visitors to your Web site. But visibility can also be in the form of other marketing materials as well as at trade shows, home shows, expos or other community events that your potential customers attend.

2. Great marketing is EMOTIONAL not LOGICAL. If you’re targeting a particular group of people, think about what they want and need to see on your Web site. If you want to market to a targeted group, add a special message on your home page that the group will encourage a response. For instance, if you’re a realtor targeting the soon-to-be-newlywed market, your home page tag may be “Let me help take the stress out of wedding planning. Find out how?”

3. Specialize in your passion! Make sure you understand and explain how your company or service can have a positive impact on the particular group you are targeting.

4. Market with continuity and consistency. No matter who you are marketing to or what promotion you are offering, there should be consistency throughout your Web site and marketing pieces. This means that your logo, company colors and slogan should remain the same from one marketing attempt to another. Although you may change your message for different markets and mediums, your company name and purpose should be easily recognizable throughout your marketing pieces. And remember, it is ideal to have at least eight exposures in 60 days in order to build your company’s recognition, so be sure to keep on top of your SEO marketing, email blasts and printed pieces.
