7 Tips to Ensure your New Website brings Business
1) Simple is Beautiful: Creating a simple website can be very complex. A website should have a clear and professional design. The message that you want to convey about your company, services or products should be immediately discernible. Avoid animations. They take time to load (may not even load in all browsers) and distract viewers. Call to actions should be very apparent and compelling.
2) Ease of Navigation. Fancy and hard to use menus can be disastrous. If your goal is to get business from your website then make it easy for visitors to navigate your site. Clever menus can put off users and even search engines. Do not use flash based and JavaScript based menus. These cannot be read by search engines and hence can adversely affect your website's ranks in search engines.
3) Contact Information: Most of the times you want your website visitors to pick up the phone and call you up immediately. Place phone numbers and address in very visible areas and on almost all pages of the website.
4) Contact Forms: Many times, you want site visitors to fill out detailed forms with information about their requirements. Have forms that are easy to find and use. Make sure that forms are working. Nothing is worse than filling out long forms and encountering error on submitting it. A failed submission may mean a lost sales opportunity.
5) No Broken Links: Broken links and pages look very unprofessional. A user may turn away from your website on seeing a broken page.
6) Test for all Browsers: All browsers differ in the way they display websites. So ensure that your website looks and performs the same in all browsers.
7) Make Website Search Engine Friendly: A major portion of traffic comes from search engines like Google. Your site will get traffic when it ranks in top pages of Google for relevant keywords and phrases. And ranking is not achieved accidently especially for highly competitive keywords. A website should have proper on page Search Engine Optimization in place. A website should be search engine friendly and efforts to make it such should be made in design phase itself.
A website should be primarily aimed at effectively conveying your business message and getting users to buy your services and products. And hence, a professionally designed website rather than a flashy website should be the ultimate goal.

6 Easy Steps to a Great Website
1) Information Gathering: The first phase is to gather as much information about the website that needs to be developed. As a web designer you should have a clear idea of what is the purpose of the website. Is it to sell products/services or disseminate information or something else? A website should have a goal. Does a company wants to sell products online or just wants an online presence?
A crucial piece of the puzzle is the audience that needs to be targeted. Getting demography wrong can derail any Website Design process. A good idea about the targeted audience can tell you lot about what kind of design style should be followed.
2) Planning: Once you have gathered all the information you need, you need to plan for the website. A sitemap should be developed in this phase. All the sections and pages should be identified. In this phase the technologies to be adopted are also decided.
3) Website Design: Drawing upon the information gathered till now, the design of the website is decided in this phase. Prototypes are designed by the web designer according to the purpose, goal and demography of the website. The designs are sent over to the client for feedback and approvals. Views and ideas are exchanged. Once, the design has been approved, the final layout is agreed upon.
4) Website Development: In this phase the website is created from the prototype. A functional site is created with all the pages starting from the home page and then inner pages. Flash, forms, menu, CMS, shopping cart and other functionalities that are needed are also developed in this phase. The content for the website is also placed in all pages with proper formatting. Throughout is process, the test site should be ideally viewable to the client for suggestions and feedback.
5) Testing and Delivery: Once the website has been designed and developed, it needs to be tested. Cross browser compatibility issues, form functionalities and scripts are tested. Website's CSS is also validated for any errors. A through check is made for any broken links, missing pages and images. Once, this is completed, client gives consent upon his satisfaction. After this stage, the website is launched on the actual server and tested again.
6) Maintenance: Website needs to be constantly updated. Content, sections, pages, special offers, news and products are to be added or edited on a regular basis. If a site is CMS based then the job of a web designer may get diminish a great deal. But if the client wants the web designer to handle then maintenance contract can be agreed upon in which the web designer is responsible for any updates to the site.

When Organic SEO is not really Organic
A SEO company which believes in real organic SEO will place very high premium on creating a site that is useful for users and visitors. Such sites without exception are placed at the top of search results. Whereas, sites which have been propped up by SEO techniques aimed at gaming an algorithm though successful in shorter run, find them in internet black hole whenever search engines update their algorithms. Search engines frequently update their algorithms so that their search results are genuine and helpful to searchers. The search results should be most relevant and authentic. Black hat SEO practitioner spam search results for the benefit of their websites, however, during these updates such sites are weeded out.
Real organic SEO consultants know that for a website to be truly popular, it needs to be informative and be a valuable resource for its user. Wikipedia, Facebook and twitter are testimony to this fact. These sites serve very valuable function and hence are extremely popular without need of any SEO. Now, you will ask how this can be relevant to small websites such as a site for plumbing company. A website for a plumbing company can have informative articles about Do it yourself, common symptoms, tips and maintenance advices etc. Visitors as well as search engines will see this website as a resource and hence its chances of good search results is much high. Not only this several blogs and website will link to this website as this is a website with valuable information. This will mean free highly relevant inbound links which are so crucial for higher rankings. Such sites will always be on top regardless of algorithm updates.
On the opposite spectrum a SEO company may plan campaign which only involves getting reciprocal links through links exchange, one way links through paid links, keyword stuffing. There is no arguing the fact that they will get results but come the next Google update, these SEO consultants will be biting their nails in anticipation. Only if they are even concentrated half their efforts on improving the content of their website.
In short, a website with good and relevant content will attract inbound links. Such website are viewed as an authority and a resource and hence do not have to resort to black hat SEO tactics for short term gains.

How to evaluate your website design cost?
1) Hourly rates: A way very commonly used freelance web designers. Hourly charges vary a great deal depending upon the country, experience and skills. Whatever be the rates, it is very essential to find out how many hours your website will take and the capabilities of the web designer. A web designer who charges less may not have adequate experience or skills. Check out their past works and evaluate if what they are charging is justified or not.
2) Per project rates: Many web design companies quote per project rates after evaluating your requirements. They will quote for all sections of the website individually with list of features and specifications for each. Before hiring a web design firm, make sure all requirements and deliverables have been agreed upon by both parties.
3) Package rates: Many web designers have different packages which cater to different complexity of websites. For people who need a basic web design, a basic package is suggested. Different packages have different features and cater to clients with varied requirements and budgets. If the client needs any specific features not in the list, s/he may order it for an additional price. If you veer to go for a package, just make sure that you do not get a non-unique pre-made website. A website should have a different look and feel from the rest and represent your business values.
4) Per page rates: This kind of pricing is generally used by novice designers and in cases where just basic website has to be developed.
If you want to get a website designed and do not have much clue on how to figure how much your website will cost, you can send your request for proposal to various web design firms. After assessing their quotes and abilities, you can select the web design firm best suited to you. Another way is to submit your project to freelancing sites. The main drawback is that many freelancers may quote absurdly low to grab a project. A client may be tempted to hire the cheapest designer who will then cut corner to keep his costs low. In the end your website may not turn out as promised. Always remember the adage “you get what you pay for”. Don’t get lured by low prices and always judge a designer by his past track record.

5 Goals a Web Design Should Accomplish
1) Beautiful + User Friendly Site: A myth has creeped-in web designing world. Many web designers are of opinion that a functional site cannot be beautiful and vice versa. In their quest for a pretty site they sacrifice functionality and vice versa. I am of the opinion that this is a lazy approach and a website can be user friendly as well beautiful. A little bit more thought and planned approach can help in fulfilling both needs. An aesthetic site can be user friendly.
2) Design for site’s audience: A gaming website been developed for kids will be different from a website for senior citizens. Pretty obvious? It is not that quite obvious when we see lot of sites which have been designed without considering the target audience. A funky themed site may not sit well with a big corporation. A site for a wooden furniture company should reflect the company’s products and also make an impression on customers who have come to the website to buy wooden furniture. The ambience of the site should match the product or services and the customer should feel the same.
3) Easy navigation: Navigation is perhaps the most important piece of the puzzle. A user friendly site that makes it easy for user to navigate a site is much better than a site with mystery meat navigation. Yes, mystery meat navigation may look cool for you but will fox a user and s/he will beat a hasty retreat. Not exactly what you wanted from your website. Eh? Make navigation such that you make the user go to areas that you want to. If you know a user will need particular information before buying a product then make it easy for him to locate that information. A clutter free navigation with links to major parts of the website is desirable. Assist the user in achieving their goals in least possible number of clicks.
4) Incorporate useful features: If possible try to add features that increase the functionality or usability of the website. A search feature is one of them. Suppose your site sells electronic gadgets. When a user is viewing description of a gadget “A” then a feature which shows the list of products which other buyers bought along with the product “A”. Show accessories that can be bought with the product and so on.
5) Deliver to web design client what they want (& what they need!): Customer is always right! After all, not only is he paying you for designing his website but also knows his business better than you do. Before going to the drawing board, have a detailed discussion about their business, industry, targeted audience, services/products and their preferences. If they would like to have a particular type of design or features then try to incorporate them. If client’s preferences are not advisable then guide him why those should be discarded. Educating your client through entire process and taking his views is always a good idea.

Are you making these 5 SEO mistakes?
1) Duplicate Title & Meta tags: This is the most common mistake. I have seen a website having numerous pages having same title and meta tags. Each webpage is different and serves a different purpose then it makes no sense to have duplicate meta tags and titles. Each product page should have correct keywords in meta tags and titles. Not only is this useful from SEO point of view but also a site visitor. S/he will immediately recognize a page from its title.
2) Absurd/Default Titles: Webpages created with WYSIWYG editors like Dreamweaver have default title such as "Untitled Document". Designers as expected do not care about SEO. Many webpages have Titles such as "Home". Many websites have titles with wrong/insufficient information. An auto dealer's website may have a title "Steve Autos". Such titles serve very little purpose because they don't reveal where this dealer is located, what type of cars or brands they are selling. Not many people search for "Steve Autos". Rather they will search for "used car dealer New Jersey" or something like that. Your title should have keywords which people are more likely to search for.
3) Using Flash based websites: I always cringe when I see a website fully made in Flash. This is one super mistake which jealous and over eager web designers are always prepared to make unless stopped by wise SEO Consultants. Flash enables designers to make nice looking website, with all bells and whistles but they are like a kryptonite as far as search engine optimization of a site is concerned. Search engines cannot read flash and it has no way of knowing what the site is about. If your site is flash based, it will look cool but it will have a lonely life because it won't have any presence on internet and no traffic as a result.
Even if your website just has a flash based menu, the problems are plenty. Search engines bots cannot read menu and hence will have great difficulty in indexing all page of your website.
Make life easier for Google bots and use CSS based navigation for more accessibility.
4) Negligible inbound links: On-page optimization though crucial is not the end of SEO. Inbound links from relevant websites with good PageRank are the lifeline of a website. Try to get inbound links from different sources with different anchor text.
5) Too much of SEO: Many SEO Consultants stuff their website with keywords. They do not know that more is not better. Search engines take a dim view of such websites and can penalize them. Make copy which looks natural with a decent sprinkling of keywords.

Three Reasons Why Your SEO Campaign Was a Disaster
Bigger budgets and greater resources have not reversed the trend and there is no immediate hope in the near future unless there is a dramatic change in how Search Engine Optimization is perceived by both SEO companies and clients. So, what are the reasons, behind the failure of SEO campaigns? Most SEO companies do not divulge the reasons behind the failure by stating that SEO is too complicated to be understood by the client and hence, they need not share the real reasons. The fact is that they cannot tell reasons because most of the time they do not have a clue regarding how SEO works. And even if they do know the reason, they won't tell their client because it will reveal their shortcomings.
Most of the times, the reason behind the failure of a SEO campaign are very apparent.
Poorly designed SEO campaign: Majority of SEO campaigns are doomed from the very onset. The SEO consultant fails to deploy correct SEO techniques. SEO companies do not conduct an in-depth analysis of the industry, market and targeted audience before planning a SEO campaign. SEO consultants just plan a cookie cutter approach to all clients across a whole spectrum of industries. They do not acknowledge the fact that each company has its own peculiarities which have to be taken in to account while designing and planning a SEO campaign. Lack of keyword research and traffic analysis also results in disastrous SEO campaigns.
Inconsistent SEO and short term SEO campaigns: Many SEO consultants fail to see the benefit of a consistent SEO campaign. Their SEO campaigns start and stop in fits and starts. SEO companies and clients - both share the blame. SEO companies under pressure to get more clients promise great results in a short span of time. Anyone who understands SEO knows that this is not how SEO works. Many clients need quick results which force a SEO company to accept unrealistic deadlines. When desired results do not materialize, SEO campaigns stops dead on its track. Another SEO campaign bites the dust and another disillusioned SEO client.
Some SEO clients have the belief that SEO is a one time activity. They discontinue a campaign after securing a position. They do not take in to account that competitors must also have their SEO campaigns in place and will soon catch up. SEO is a long drawn affair which needs lot of time for planning and executing. And still more time for search engines to recognize and evaluate these SEO efforts.
Lack of knowledge & experience: A new trend is emerging. Directory submitters and link builders whose experience just involved browsing sites and sending link exchange requests think that they know SEO enough to be called SEO consultants. There would have been no problem but for the fact that they do not even know the basic concepts of SEO. Needless to tell, these "SEO consultants" charge lot less than genuine & experienced SEO consultants. SEO clients lured by such attractive rates, hire them thinking that they have made a great deal. Of course, few months down the line they watch in despair as their website, money and time go down the drain in front of their eyes.

Top 5 Ways to Create Backlinks
But not all backlinks are created equal. Backlinks with do follow are the ones that matter. Backlinks should also have proper anchor text with appropriate keywords. It also helps a great deal if the backlinks are on the website with high reputation, high PR and relevant themes.
To get backlinks here are few valuable tips:
1. Analyze competition: The first step in acquiring backlinks is to analyze what the competition is doing and its backlink sources. Use Yahoo! Search Explorer tool to determine the backlinks for each of the top competing websites. List all websites which have backlink to your rival websites. Separate do follow links from the master list. Arrange them in the descending order of their PR. Once you have this list of sites which can provide you backlink, you have a list of source which you need to tap to get inbound links for your site also.
2. Submit website to Directories: Though, it is not that popular as it used to be, it is still very essential. Submit your website URL to both general and niche directories. Link from niche directories are much more valuable. Do not submit to hundreds of directories in one day but go about this step in a consistent and slow manner to avoid Google's suspicion.
3. Submit Articles to Article Directories: One of the most effective techniques to not only build backlinks but to also increase SERPs. Article submission also builds your website's reputation.
4. Blog Posts: Blog posts with backlinks to your website in same/relevant themed blogs not only bring traffic but also results in good position in Google search for your keywords.
5. Create Link Bait: Link bait involves creating compelling & relevant content on the website which makes others link to it. For this not only good content has to be posted but you also need to update content frequently. This will make other bloggers/websites link back to your website.

Is Your Website Relevant
So, while you will pay a lot to be a sponsored or pay per click ad, you may get good visibility easily but not get similar results in terms of traffic and leads.
On the other hand, getting top 10 ranks in SERPs is not easy and is time consuming but is well worth the money and time spent. So, how do you make your site relevant in Google's eyes? How does Google calculate relevance?
If you search for “Mexico real estate”, millions of search results are thrown up. Google uses its secret algorithm to measure relevance of each site so that searchers only get the most relevant and correct results. Though, the algorithm is not known to us, what we know are some factors that effect relevance of a site for particular keywords.
Some of the most important factors are:
1. Domain Name: If the domain name includes full or part of keyword then Google will place it higher than other websites with out keywords in domain if all other factors are same.
2. Title Tag: The title tag of a webpage shown at the top of the browser is perhaps the most important on-page factor. If keyword is present in the title tag, it makes more sense for Google and searcher to think that that particular website is relevant to that keyword. If your website is targeting a particular city or region then, adding the region's name may increase the relevancy of the website. Additionally, the website will get more targeted traffic.
3. Description: Description meta tag can be used by Google in the search results. If the keywords in the description meta tag are not found the webpage's content then Google may used some other text for description in search listings.
4. Headings: words wrapped by H1 and H2 are deemed more important by Google. So make sure that your keywords are highlighted by heading tags.
5. Links: The site should be easily navigable. JavaScript and flash based menus are ignored by Google. Link should always be textual and anchor text composed of keywords.
6. Inbound links: Links on other websites pointing back to your website shows how popular is your site. The more inbound links from relevant sites means that your website is more relevant to the industry.

Better Business through Better SEO
This important fact has to be borne in mind by any business which wants to achieve success in today's cut throat environment. But, getting high rankings in Google is easier said than done. It has become so competitive that a new breed of professionals has emerged known as SEO Consultants (Search Engine Optimization consultants). These professional's task is to analyze a website and then optimize it such that it ranks higher and preferably on first page of Google.
SEO also includes a very important aspect known as link building. Even a cursory investigation will reveal that the sites with better and more backlinks are the ones which are dominating the Google search results. So what are these mysterious backlinks and how do we get them? Backlinks are links on other websites pointing to your website. These inbound links give valuable pointers to Google spiders about your site's popularity and theme which enables Google algorithm to study your site and rank them accordingly.
If a website's content is well written and informative, then many sites link back as important resources for their users and readers. This is one excellent way to get backlinks but this may not be feasible for every website and in those cases proactive method of link building has to be done which encompasses – reciprocal link exchange, one way link exchange, 3 way link exchange, blog posts, articles, Press Releases etc. Each of these methods has their pros and cons. Any success SEO campaign will have a judicious mix of these activities depending on the sites' goal and budget.
A professional SEO company will formulate a backlink building campaign which takes in to account the guidelines provided by the search engines and adopt only ethical techniques to ensure long term SEO success.

How to make Inbound links look natural?
Inbound link building is one of the cornerstones of SEO success. All major search engines, especially Google take in to account the number and quality of link pointing to a particular website in its search results ranking algorithm. Aware of this fact, SEO consultants in their zeal to acquire inbound links resort to black hat tactics and suffer Google penalty as a consequence.
Here are few ways how a link building company can acquire links which will look natural in Google's eyes.
Inbound links should have variety of anchor text: While targeting your main keyword is important, you should build inbound links with a variety of anchor text.
Acquire links from different C-class IPs: Links from sites on same C class I.P. may not have too much weightage therefore have your links coming from different C class I.P.s.
Inbound links from different section of the linking pages: Backlinks should come from different section/location of linking pages like content section, footer, navigation etc. A pattern like all link coming from footer of the site may sound of alarms. It is believed that Google doesn't value footer links much.
Acquire inbound link gradually: SEO consultants should acquire incoming links gradually over a period of time and not try to get hundreds of links immediately. It may raise a flag and Google can ban your site.
Acquire link with different PR values: Pages with backlinks should have varied Page rank so as not to raise Google's eyebrows.
Acquire links from reputed neighborhood: Avoid backlinks from adult, casino, pharmacy sites. Search Engines usually don't have a good opinion of theses kind of sites.
Inbound links from pages with related themes: Make sure links come from related pages.
Build inbound links to internal pages also: Inbound links to internal pages makes link building campaign look natural and also benefits the site overall.
Acquire permanent links: The age of inbound links is important. Try getting permanent links. If you are buying links, then buy links for a longer period of time.
Make paid links seem natural: While buying links avoid words like sponsors and advertisements which are telltale signs of paid links which Google prohibits. Google has specifically claimed that it prohibits buying and selling and selling of links. According to their blog, “Links that are purchased are great for advertising and traffic purposes, but aren't useful for PageRank calculations. Buying or selling links to manipulate results and deceive search engines violates our guidelines.”
The links if you have paid for them should be embedded within the content and not very conspicuous enough to attract Google's attention.

How to choose the correct keywords for your SEO campaign?
Identifying the keywords and key phrases that people use to search for information on the internet is of vital importance. All your SEO efforts should be focused on the keywords that are relevant as well as most searched. A site which has been optimized according to the relevant keywords will get the right traffic. In contrast, a site that has used keywords that do not represents site's theme or content may get visitors but that won't be of much help as those visitors will not find anything worthwhile on the site and will go back empty handed.
Choosing the best keywords starts with brainstorming using a mix of sources. First step is correctly identifying your site's main services/products, target audience and geographical location. After this an in-depth analysis of competitors, especially the top rankings ones, in your niche needs to be conducted. At this step you should be able to compile a list of broad keywords/phrases which will act as seed list. Once this has been done, you can use any of the popular keyword research tools to determine the popularity of the selected phrases as well find out other related keywords that may be used. These tools allow you to narrow down the phrases most suitable for your site. The tools also give an indication on the number of people who search for these keywords daily or over a period of time. One mistake that many SEO consultants make is that they choose the most popular keywords. Though, it's very obvious to go after the most popular keywords as those will bring the most traffic, one important piece of information that they forgot to factor in is the competition. More popular the keyword is, more will be the number of competing sites and lesser your chances of success in short to medium term. Instead, SEO consultants should also focus on keywords which may not be that much popular but not that competitive so that your site stands better chance of getting relevant traffic.
Once, you have selected the keywords for your site, optimize your site accordingly and track your success. Monitor your ranking and traffic reports constantly. Since, keyword research is an iterative process you may try different keywords to see which keywords bring you more traffic. Measuring the success can be an easy job using web analytics tools like the one provided by Google.
The process of researching keywords and then measuring whether those optimization efforts produce the desired results using analytics is ongoing and should be managed like any other marketing effort with benchmarks and performance reports.

Is your website getting you business?
You must be familiar with e-commerce websites but you may not be aware that how a website can increase your sales and promote your services/products. Since last few years, Google has become the primary source of traffic and acts as a gateway to find websites on the internet. Now the situation is that if your website ranks in first few top positions on search engine results of Google for a particular keyword then that website has a much greater chance to gain more traffic, more business and will also be deemed more reliable and trustworthy.
So, how your website can break into the top positions of Google search results? The answer is simple – Search Engine Optimization (SEO). Is SEO simple? Well…yes!

What to do when your Google search rankings drop
• Don't Worry: Though, it's natural to panic and immediately think of firefighting strategies, I will advise you to hold your horses for few days. In my experience, most of the drastic falls in search rankings have been temporary lasting from 1 day to at most a week. Never make the mistake of making drastic changes in your website. You should wait for the dust to settle. If the results seem to be long term, then you need to think of the steps to salvage the rankings but not yet.
• Identify the Problem: Once you have established that the ranking is here to stay, then identify the problem. Once when this happened to my client's site, the problem was the website was down for a week. Another common problem is that many SEO consultants adopt black hat techniques to boost their site rankings artificially. If that's the case then fix your site ASAP. Remove any black hat techniques used on your site. Request Google for site reconsideration. Cross your fingers that Google heeds to your request and your site gets reinstated. Though, there is no fixed timeline for this to happen, it's better to get this step done as soon as possible.
• Diversify your back links: Very often Google algorithms change and with that many link building techniques get devalued. If you have been dependent on just one type of back links then it's better to diversify and acquire links from other sources also.
• Increase your traffic sources: Many people often just rely on Google for their traffic, neglecting other search engines like Bing and other avenues. Though, Google will be the largest contributor to your traffic, it's advisable to build up your rankings in other search engines since one never can predict a dip in traffic from Google due to a drop in search rank.
A drop in Google search ranks even for a limited period of time can potentially mean great loss of revenue. Though, we cannot avoid it every time, what a SEO consultant can do is be aware of all latest news regarding SEO & Google and always be on right of Google's guidelines for webmasters and focus on both short and long tail keywords.

Social Media Marketing Strategy Checklist

How to start your SEO Campaign
Whatever opinion may float around on the internet, the fact is that website optimization is a specialized job which requires hours of study, hard work and patience. The following SEO tips will just educate a bit on different aspects of search engine optimization. These tips will familiarize with SEO and won't make you look like a SEO illiterate while selecting a SEO company for your website.
Web Content Writing:
Any website should have clear, concise, engaging and informative content. This is the best rule for a website success with both website readers and search engines. Search Engines tend to reward websites with great content. A website with fresh content attracts search engines bots and compels them to return back to site for crawling on a regular basis.
It's imperative that a webpage should have a themed content and a good ratio of natural looking keywords which relate to a web site's business. Of course, like any good thing, a webpage should not be crammed with keywords which may be seen as an attempt to game search engines.
Website Design and User Interface:
A website should be easy to navigate, use and contain minimal amount of graphics and flash elements. Many sites display important keyword rich text in images or flash. This is totally worthless and does nothing to improve a site's position on Google search listings. Search engine robots cannot crawl and read images and flash. Therefore, it's essential that website have all of its content in text format which is not only easy for bots to read but also for users of the website. Many browsers may block images and flash and hence, a user may not be able to know a website's message.
Titles and Meta tags:
A webpage title indicates a webpage's subject to a search engine bot and users of the website. Another thing to remember is that this title also appears on a website's listing on search engines; therefore, a well made title tag also captures a user's attention. An ideal title should also have a website's main keywords.
Article writing and submissions:
To achieve good ranks on Google, a website needs a good amount of back links from other websites. A good way to earn inbound links is creating keyword rich articles and submitting them to article directories.
Blog:
Ideally, a website should have a blog that is updated regularly. A website owner should post articles regarding the products, services and industry news to keep contact with readers.
Log Analysis & Analytics:
A website should have analytics installed so that a complete view of user activity can be studied. Analytics report can provide valuable insight in to a web user activity, traffic pattern, traffic sources, most viewed pages and host of other factors.

Search Engine Optimization Guide for Beginners – Image and Headings
In this article we will explore some lesser known tips of search engine optimization for Google. Optimization for Headings and Images is an aspect that is overlooked many times or over done by a SEO newbie.
Headings tags are used to define page organizational structure. Properly written header tags inform site visitors and helps them navigate through your web pages. Effective header tags can even increase your site ranking on search engines like Google. Heading tags are not to be confused with the HEAD section of a web page. Header tags are present in the body section where as the HEAD section is for TITLE and META tags.
Page headings are created with the
For best result for user as well as search engines, a SEO consultant should place main keywords in h1 tags. But H1 tags should be used sparingly in a webpage. A SEO consultant should study the page structure and divide it according to the main point and sub points. Header tags should always be used where they will aid in defining the structure of the web page. A standard use of header tags should be adopted across the website.
Everybody must be aware of images in a webpage. Image tag has “alt” attribute which can be used effectively for search engine optimization. Alt attribute allows specifying alternative text for the image if it cannot be displayed due to some problem. It maybe possible that, that image has been moved to some other location and web page has not been updated. In this case the visitor will at least be aware of what the image was about. Many times, people use browsers that don't display images or images are blocked as in cases of emails. Alt if used properly can increase usability of a webpage. If an image is used as a link, then the alt text for that image is treated as anchor text of a text link.
For best SEO results, images should have descriptive names which include your keywords. Likewise, alt text should also have keywords so that your webpage may rank higher for that keyword. It's a small factor but a factor worth exploring.
These factors help search engines understand and gather more data about your website. While SEO consultants should follow the above mentioned guidelines, they should not go overboard. Extremely lengthy filenames can be counter-intuitive. Similarly, alt tags should not be stuffed with keywords and long paragraph.
This practice can be considered by search engines as an attempt to spam them for higher rankings and hence be penalized.

Social Networking Site for better Business from Website
Facebook, Twitter, MySpace, LinkedIn. You must have heard these terms on radio, television, internet etc. Even your friends talk about them. If you are even little bit internet savvy then I can bet that you are also in at least one of these social networking sites.
Social networking site is a category of website which allows people to register, put their bio/profile with business & website addresses and connect with other like minded friends. A social networking site also has other features like content posting, photos, application, create new groups/communities and lot of other stuff.
Such sites are very helpful if you want to subtly spread word about yourself, your hobbies, business etc. Since, you are connected to your friends, relatives, and colleagues that is, people sharing same interests or goals, this form of marketing is not jarring or very intrusive. Since your business website URL is placed on your bio or posts, the website will get targeted traffic from these social networking sites.
If you are regular about your activity on social networking sites and keep in touch with other members & communities, your site can get a fairly good amount of traffic. People are always on look out for information. Make your posts educative and informative.
You can post an actual article on your business website and place excerpt with link back to that article on your website. This will also get you lot of traffic and hence business. This will convince people that you are serious about your business and have good knowledge regarding your domain. Share expert views on your subject matter. Be an authority. Place yourself such that people actively seek your advice. Try to help them, answer their queries and give unbiased suggestions. You need not devote all your time to these social networking sites. Just keep out few hours every week for social networking. Keep your post and replies clear, concise and relevant.
Another good way of promoting your site and services will be to create and join communities. This will help you in gaining greater visibility. Be around and be seen. Help out other members. It's just like the way you actually work in the real world. The difference is just that here you can interact with a larger community of people and from different demography and geography.
So how do you start with social networking? Start with few highly popular networking sites like Facebook, MySpace, Twitter, LinkedIn, Orkut etc. Register to those social networking sites which are more popular or targeted to your business or interest group. For example for people related to real estate industry, Activerain is a good option. Once registered, create a profile, add your photograph and add your website link. Make as many friends and contacts as possible. Get busy with your networking and be consistent. Working in fits and starts wont help that much. Try out various strategies to find the best and most efficient way for yourself. Everything should not be about business and include some lighthearted posts, videos and images. This will help you make genuine connections with people.
