I had two calls last week from people asking about Search Engine Optimization. SEO is an art/industry all its own – but there are three elements that I build into each clients site, which is the best place to begin your SEO efforts.
First, Page Titles: The name at the top of your web page that describes your business: Each title should be different and relevant to each page – keyword research is very helpful to insure you are using the most searched for terms.
Second, Meta Descriptions: the copy that will show up under your Page Title in the search listings. These need to relate to the text on the web page – each description needs to be different and accurate.
For this example I Googled “Marion MA Specialty Bakery”:
Third, Keywords: these tell the search engines what is on your page:
On my homepage I would use the keywords such as: web designer, internet marketing, social networking, AdWords Specialist, Southeastern MA web specialist
