Search Engine Optimization, or SEO as it is better known as, is big business globally. After all, every business uses the worldwide web these days to promote itself and engage with customers and prospective customers. It should therefore come as no surprise that a growing number of businesses exist to provide SEO services. What’s more, in this age of globalization, the SEO business can be delivered almost from anywhere. One would be forgiven for thinking that all that is needed is for the service provider to understand what keywords need to be promoted.

But wait a minute. Are SEO services only about keywords? The answer is an emphatic “no.” That’s because these days, people search not just for specific keywords but also for words and phrases related to the topic of their search. That’s on the demand side. On the supply side, search engines continue to evolve their search algorithms. So for your web site to “found” by search engines in response to a search by someone somewhere, your site needs the right design and content, besides being hosted on a “clean” server (hint: the speed of the server and % of up time help too). The number of links coming into the site from other sites (that are not infested with malware, bots and the like) also plays an important role in determining the ranking of your site. In this age of social media, you can also use blogs, micro blogs and even videos on You Tube to drive up your search rankings. Make sure that whoever provides you with SEO services is doing all this for you.

The worldwide web is full of companies offering you SEO services. And many of them a darn fine job too. But if I were to draw a convoluted analogy with the world of project finance, it would run something like this. A good project that is inherently viable can get that much better (for its investors) if they can access funds at a cheaper rate. But even if the investors are able to reduce their cost of capital by half a percentage, a patently bad project cannot become viable. What’s my point? Forgive the digression. The simple fact is that unless a web site contains relevant and useful content (from the point of view of your customers and prospective customers), no amount of SEO will help. Such content needs to be refreshed frequently. They key words must appear in the titles, Meta data and descriptions and all pages (not just the home page).

If you have outsourced SEO services, perhaps it’s time to ask your SEO specialists over to your office (or get onto a video conference if they’re thousands of miles away) to make sure they are not doing any unethical SEO. These methods may boost your rankings in the short-term, but will damage your reputation in the medium and long-term. Ask your web team to check for broken links on your site. A high incidence of broken links can impact your SEO outcomes. Periodically ask your SEO service provider to explain your search engine algorithm score – especially for the major ones like Google, Yahoo, Bing and AOL. That will help your web site stay on top.
