Yet it seems to be a factor often overlooked by many websites. Although SEO is not important for everyone (A company like Nike is already known and people will know to just type in the website address) for many businesses search engine searches are a key method to generate new leads. It is basically free advertising.

<p>What can we do for your in terms of SEO?</p>
What are some of the things that an experienced SEO and internet marketing consultant like Escala Singapore can do for you in terms of SEO?
<ul>
    <li>We can do some <strong>research</strong> as to what keywords are frequently searched on in your target area. Sometimes these keywords phrases are completely different from what you think people will search for when they want to find your business. You will need to make sure that you are targeting the right keywords. There is no point being number 1 for your keywords if noone searches for that particular phrase.</li>
    <li>We look at your website and determine with you which <strong>keywords you want to target</strong>. You can target different keywords phrases on each page of your website.</li>
    <li>We can change some of the <strong>page titles</strong> (the titles that you will see at the top of your browser) so that they are more descriptive and will include your most important keywords. Page titles are crucially important for SEO and it is easy to do.</li>
    <li>We can improve your <strong>meta tags for keywords</strong></li>
    <li>We can improve your <strong>meta tag desciption</strong>. This is the text that often appears in search engines when your website comes up in a search. It is important that it is both keyword rich but also encourages viewers to visit your site.</li>
    <li>We can improve the <strong>keyword density</strong> within your text</li>
    <li>We can analyze why your <strong>competitors</strong> are ranked higher than you. We can see which keywords they are targeting and which sites link to that website.</li>
    <li>We can create <strong>links </strong>to your site. We can target the same links as your competitors but can add many more. Links to your site are an important factor for achieving the highest spots in the search engines</li>
    <li>We can advise you on and implement <strong>link generating strategies</strong>, like creating profiles in social media, writing articles for article directories, getting alerts of posts in your area and then commenting on those blog posts.</li>
    <li>We can monitor that all is well with your website with <strong>Google's webmaster tools</strong> and add redirects to pages if Google identifies page not found or other errors. We can also add a sitemap which makes it easy for Google to spider all pages of your website</li>
    <li>We can <strong>add Google analytics</strong> to your site. This is the best analytics software on the web and it is free! It will give you very detailed information about the visitors of your site, where they can from and how long they stay on your site.</li>
    <li>We can advise you on <strong>how to use your website</strong> to get optimum results in Google and other search engines. For example you may consider adding a blog to your website. A blog keeps your website current and if you place a feed on the frontpage that page will be updated on a frequent basis. Google will pick up on the fact that your frontpage gets updated frequently and will keep coming back to your site to increase the pages that it indexes for your website.</li>
    <li>Although this is not SEO we can also setup a <strong>google ad campaign </strong>for you. This will give you instant results. All your click throughs can be monitored through Analytics and as you can adjust your ads and campaigns as often as you like you are completely in control over how much you want to spend on advertising and which areas you want to target.</li>
</ul>

Social media is everywhere right now and you can get overwhelmed by it. What to do with it, how much to use it, how to use it for business? I like this video from  Perry Belcher where he explains how he uses things like Twitter, his blog and his website to connect with people and do business.
