In the offline world location is everything. But online you don’t have a shop window that attracts incidental passers-by. You need to do well in the search engines. Otherwise people won’t find you.

The only alternative is spending a lot of money on Google ads and banners. For most online business owners this is way too expensive in the long run. Free traffic is the best you can get.

How do you reach the top of Google?

If you visit web sites of search engine optimization specialists you get the impression that the only way to get noticed by Google is to manipulate your web pages. Their message is simple: we'll put tons of keywords in strategic locations and your business will hit the big time.

Don't Get Fooled

There are a few webmasters out there that run Site Build It! sites and claim certain the SBI advice regarding SEO doesn't work. Don't get fooled. These webmasters simply try to sell you something.

Some go as far as accusing SiteSell founder Ken Evoy for hiding some essential SEO information. If he would hide something from you, he would harm his own business. After all, your success is SiteSell's success.

Now it's true that climbing the ranks of Google can be difficult. Maybe one day some pages of your site get dropped by Google or Yahoo!. Or you lose the Top-10 position for some keywords.

Try not to worry too much about it. If your site is truly strong and offers quality information, you will reappear, probably in a better position than before.

Take a deep breath, create more content, follow the basics of search engine friendly web development and wait. And don't buy "secrets" that promise to send you tons of traffic. There are no secrets. It's quality that wins on the web, not manipulation.

Wrong.

Paying SEO specialists is throwing money out of the window. Their tricks may work for one month, but once Google has changed its algorithm – which will happen – you’ll disappear from the spotlights.

To build a thriving online business you simply have to follow…

The basics of search engine friendly web development

  • create interesting, informative and original content that gives solutions to people’s problems
  • build a large site with dozens of pages. More pages are more chances to get noticed
  • get a clean design that does not distract search engine spiders and human visitors
  • get a a clear and easy-to-follow navigation structure
  • make sure other, important theme-related web sites link to you
  • do not apply search engine manipulation tricks.

Google, Yahoo! and Bing need strong content sites.

Why? Because pages with strong search results mean satisfied visitors (people who type in search queries). And satisfied visitors mean happy customers (the companies that advertise on the right hand side of each results page).

Search engines don’t need junk sites that are only built to score well in the engines. Junk sites don't satisfy visitors. Valuable content does. So...

It's valuable content that pleases the search engines.

As a certified Site Build It! webmaster I follow the principles of search engine friendly web development for all my client sites. By doing so, you'll get a site according to the successful Site Build It! standards. Find out more about services and prices of search engine friendly web development.

Traffic is the lifeblood of every web business. If people can’t find you, you don’t exist.

Sure, there are other ways to drive traffic to your site. Advertizing for example. But why spend money on ads if you can get far more traffic (for free!) by just applying the basics of search engine friendly web development?

The only answer is: build a genuine, interesting web site that delivers, or better… OVERdelivers. Or let me build this site for you.
