Why You Need to Optimize Your SEO Content for More Than Just Google

Posted: Aug 06, 2008 | Comments: 0 | Views: 33 | Bookmark and Share

If you simply optimize your website SEO for Google, you could be missing out on a huge untapped number of potential visitors to your website. Although it's true that Google is the leading search engine and accounts for over 70% of all search-related traffic, that doesn't mean that you should start and end your website SEO at Google.

While there's no denying the results and traffic that a professionally SEO-enhanced website will bring you, and that Google plays a large part of that, take the time to think about these figures. Sure, Google accounts for 70% of all search engine traffic - yet that leaves 30% unacounted for.

According to the latest figures from Internet World Stats, there are currently 1,458,632,361 Internet users around the world today. An incredible figure, and one that's growing all the time. Now, take Google out of the equation and you're left with 437,589,703 users - almost half a billion! Let's say that only 20% of these users are business browsers - that's still an incredible 87.5 million users.

Can your business afford to miss out on these web users simply because you're concentrating on optimizing your website for Google? If you're like the vast majority of businesses who can't afford to miss out on this untapped goldmine, there are ways that you can ensure you have the best possible chance of capturing that untapped audience:




  • Use an expert content provider in SEO that can write for the different search engines



  • Purchase international domain names for your website - the Asian market in particular is about to explode and the international URL's will help you in this market and others



  • Depending on the size of your company, set up localized blogs. Outsource writers if you need to - the extra cost will be worth it



  • Understand how the different search engines rank content and tailor different pages on your website for different search engines




 

Losing business through tougher trading or economical reasons is bad enough - losing business through easy-to-remedy optimization of your website's content is worse. Making sure your SEO is truly search engine friendly is achievable and the best starting point is providing SEO content that is friends with more than just Google.

    In an attempt to reach the top spot in search engines, you can go one of two ways – ethically or unethically. While unethical, or black hat, SEO, may seem like it gives quicker results, it's never going to pay off in the long run. White hat SEO is far preferable, but just why is it so important to use ethical techniques?

While it's true that they both provide valuable services to website owners or similar, there's actually one main area where the two are completely different - and it's in the name itself. Whereas SEO writers will generally write articles for a website or blog, SEO content providers will also look at the overall SEO of a website to maximize its SEO visibility.

While keyword articles used to be just a collection of keywords put together in a 400-500 word feature, the ever-changing algorithms used by Google, Yahoo and more mean this is no longer a valid option. Therefore, you need to make sure that your keyword rich article is optimized properly for maximum effect.
