Search Engine Optimisation (SEO)
Search Engine Optimisation, also commonly known as SEO, is the process of optimising the structure and content of your web site to ensure that the pages rank well for relevant search terms in the natural or "organic" search results. Because this is what brings you "free" traffic it's probably the single most important element of an effective internet presence.
There is little point in having a great website if it is not visible to your customers or potential customers, and SEO helps put your website centre stage. Proper optimisation of your website can pay dividends in the long term as it reduces reliance on increasingly expensive paid search advertising to deliver traffic, yielding a higher number of site visitors at a lower cost per click, and dramatically improving your return on investment.
DVisions has been in the business of search engine optimisation since before the arrival of Google and PageRank, and our continuing impressive results clearly demonstrate that our approach and methodology deliver real long term value to our clients.
So why DO you need search engine optimisation?
Consider these statistics:
• 85% of web traffic is driven by the search engines
• 55% of searchers don’t go beyond the first page of search results
• 85% don’t go beyond page 3
• 52% don’t go back from the first site they find
• 70% of Google users state they prefer to choose natural listing over paid search results
