So… why have my sites Google Rankings Dropped?

There’s a lot and by a lot, I mean a lot of discussion going on around the world with regards to Google’s most recent roll out of algorythem changes targeting and combating web spam it it’s making a pretty substantial impact among the SEO world and business owners who happened to unsuspectingly hired an SEO firm based on trust and have later found they were developing ‘less than ethical’ SEO tactics.

Why is it so important to implement ‘white hat’ SEO tactics?

The Big “G” has made it clear that they fully support SEO. Some of the reasons include quality and ethical SEO’s help promote a better user experience though making a website more crawalble and load quicker among many additional SEO services.

If you’re thinking about hiring a new SEO provider, keep ethics in mind. Ask questions, ask for referrals and check existing rankings. A good SEO company should rank well for their respective keywords. For an example; if your business is in Tucson, AZ and you’d like to work with a local SEO company, you might search something like “Tucson SEO.”

Good luck and happy hunting!

If you’re a contractor and/or into contractor marketing here’s a great post that was found at Contractor Marketer.com.

BestContractors.com is a bad idea

Added Apr 1, 2011, Under: Marketing

Is BestContractors.com among the dying breeds of lead generators?

If you’re a home services professional (contractor) looking to hook up with a company for leads, then I’m sure you’ll be able to appreciate why I think BestContractors.com a company owned by HomeSphere is a very bad idea.

Here’s a little background… BestContractors.com was formed in around 2006 if memory serves me right by Mark Henninger, a Colorado based entrepreneur with drive, passion and a vision to make BestContractors.com the resource for home owners to connect with reputable home service providers. Mark has since formed a successful web based solutions provider called Interactive Directories based in Cherry Creek.

Last year I predicted the downfall of BestContractors.com on my personal blog, something that became popular among employees and VCs behind BestContractors.com alike. At first several of the former employees were claiming they were doing just fine and weeks later were on the streets. These same employees had hit my blog once again claiming that BestContractors.com was done, they were laying everyone off and they (HomeSphere) had treated them very bad. Some claim they were stripped from rightfully ownership in stock, some had other stories but either way they all had a similar situation.

I worked for Service Magic.com as a SEO Consultant back around 2005 and was later recruited by BestContractors.com to help drive their online marketing so I’ve got a bit of experience in the space.

My arrangement with BestContractors.com was to exchange a good chuck of well ranking geo-graphical oriented domain names for stock in the company, I handed over the domains and was never given my stock which is one of the many reasons I tend to believe the ex-employees (former co-workers) of BestContractors.com.

Service Magic is kinda on the right track with their generic lead generation web-pages. Smart.

At one point I tried to connect with Glenn Renner, the President and COO of HomeSphere who falls just behind James Waldrop in the chain of command, a person who I believe is one of the many DMs behind BestContractors.com who are in the public eye struggling with innovation, denying that times in the search engine world are changing quickly and are going to be the ultimate fall behind BestContractors.com which is one of the many reasons that if I were a home improvement contractor I wouldn’t invest into a product and service with such uncertainty. This is something that HomeSphere and the VC’s will without a doubt deny to this day but mark my words unless there are some serious changes to their business models they are as good as gone.

When it comes to optimizing the content of your business’s website for search engine capabilities, proper organization is one of the key objectives you must take into consideration if you want to beat the competition. You can be sure that any competitive business based in the Denver area either has trained staff on hand who understand the inner workings of SEO or has a local independent Denver SEO Firm taking care of their SEO needs. Hiring an SEO firm is usually your best bet if you’re new to the Internet marketing game, because it takes the stress of SEO work off of you and hands it over to a group of individuals who do this sort of thing on a daily basis.

If you’re just now looking into giving your business the cyber-boost it needs with SEO work, you have a bit of catching up to do even before you go out and hire an independent Denver SEO Companies. SEO work first and foremost requires a plan of attack. What kind of market are you after? How broad or narrow will your consumer focus be? Are you considering a local, national, or global campaign? Answering these simple questions will help you outline and articulate the specific work you need done to your local SEO company. This way you will not get stuck with a generic SEO package that involves little more than a bit of keyword placement and web development.

If you’re familiar with internet marketing then you know that it’s an essential service required to drive traffic to a website, sales page or other kind of offer offered online.

I recently had the opportunity to connect with the Founder and Chief Executive for Colorado Springs SEO, a dominant Colorado based local internet marketing provider and ask

There are many ways to attract new business… Search Engine Optimization to pay-per-click management, display advertising and many others.

Here are a few great SEO / Internet Marketing Tools to get you started!

• Google Keyword Tool
• SEO Book Keyword Suggestion Tool
• Word Tracker
• Google Insights

Pick a keyword that has no competition and no searches, and you may rank well for that term but see little to no organic traffic. Therefore, before targeting any specific keywords, it is absolutely vital to do the proper keyword research.

Search Engine Optimizers in town for some reason don’t talk a lot, perhaps it’s because it’s such a competitive ego-driven industry. Regardless of what your thoughts are you’ll want to check out a new website I put up called Denver SEO News.  I’m going to work on featuring news within the local Denver SEO & SEM scene as well as talk about the things most of the other guys don’t want you to hear. I also invite my fellow Denver SEOs to become contributing writers. The articles must be about Colorado businesses and marketing related – not self promotion. You will be able to however throw a back-link to your website on each and everyone of your posts along with your profile page.

My contact information is available on my Denver SEO, Inc contact page.

According to Google’s Matt Cutts Google is not doing anything special for Twitter posts. This is a typical question among Denver SEO Companies and among the Denver Internet Marketing Industry.

The keywords you select for your website play an important role with Denver Search Engine Optimization ranking of that site or you can say that traffic gaining chances of that site. Thus before optimizing a site Denver SEO Social Media experts use to waste lots of time for proper research.

• Keyword length
• Daily Search Volume
• Competition

In proper keyword research competitiveness of several keywords is also a correlated term like search volume and you need to calculate properly as well. It is very important for your SEO Campaign to keep between chosen key phrases which will produce maximum web traffic and the unique competition of particular key phrases.

Part of the fun of being me is that no matter what move I make – I have someone who mimics my every move. This is one of the reasons that I thought it would be fun to launch Denver SEO Social Media.

1. There is no search volume for Denver SEO Social Media so why launch it?
   Social Media is obviously a growing industry. The reason for putting Denver SEO Social Media live was more or so to create a testing area for our leading Colorado SEO Company – Sean Hakes, Inc. Another reason for putting up this website is to keep my competitors on their toes. In fact – I’d be willing to bet if I targeted Chug Water WY SEO Services, a few of my little shadows would follow close behind. For those who don’t know anything about Chug Water it has a population of about 2,000.
2. I also get a good laugh out of a few of my competitors who think because I go after something it has some kind of meaning.
