Most customers are now accessing company websites via search engines rather than the website address. The vast majority of those using search engines do not go beyond the first page of results, so the higher you rank, the more visible you and your products will be to customers.
There are certain things you can do ensure your business appears more prominently in the listings on the results page. Search Engine Optimisation (SEO) fine tunes your website to make you more visible to search engines.
So what improvements do you need to make? One of the most important areas is design, with well-written, relevant content, and easy-to navigate pages. It is essential that content is updated regularly, describes your products or services clearly, and contains relevant keywords unique to your sector, especially high up on the web page.
It is also worth contacting websites that have a good search ranking for the key terms relevant to your products and services to ask if they will provide reciprocal links – they include a link to your site if you include a link to theirs.
