SEO

The figures in the public domain vary, but generally around 80% of traffic will come from sites being found on search engines. Some Search Engine Optimisation (SEO) and Search Engine Marketing (SEM) operations state they will submit your website to hundreds if not thousands of search engines, but this is really not necessary; Let’s look at the figures…

There are just 3 main players in the search engine market (at the time of writing) and between them they provide around 90% of search traffic. The smaller engines do serve their purpose and probably provide a very good service, but “the big 3″ are where your traffic really matters.

BE AWARE: Some SEO organisations offer guarantees of positioning, such as guaranteed #1 or guaranteed top ten in any or ALL the search engines. Be very wary of these claims and ask for references and/or examples that you can check. It’s very easy to rank well on certain non-competitive terms, but in the competitive arena it’s a different game altogether.

Getting a good rank in the major search engines takes time and patience to pursue timely strategies not just keyword stuffing and automated reports from “SEO software”.
