Image Optimization: An Easy SEO Opportunity
We’ve noticed lately that more and more traffic is coming from Google Image search. This trend is not surprising as web searches get savvier and learn how to search in different ways. Now searchers are making queries within blogs, images, videos and news. So, to stay on top of this trend, sites should optimize their images. Increasingly, customers will be searching for new equipment by looking through Google’s image database, so you want your company’s images to be at the top of the image results.
It’s to be expected that proper ALT text should be written for all images. Don’t spam up your alt tags with keyword stuffing like “web designing,web designing packages,web design”. This will probably make Google mad, and users can see that text when they mouse over the image. Instead, write an honest and exact description of the image like “Website Designing”.
Next, consider the file name of your image. Don’t name your images with a number like image909.gif Name your image for what it is like web-designing-modelA.gif. Google’s image bot reads the image name along with the alt tag, so properly naming your images is another opportunity for image optimization.
Consider adding caption text to the image. Google seems to pick up on the text surrounding the image, so adding keyword driven content to your captions can help with optimization.
Also consider the way your images are displayed. Google can’t read alt tags or text from images embedded in a slide show. Any image with script involved will not be read by the search engine, so consider how you display them.

What benefit does Creative offer you?
With a wide spectrum of web companies, freelancers and agencies available in the market how do you know which one is right for you? Most importantly will the web company that you choose offer you the benefits that you are looking for? Many are of the opinion that the Internet has revolutionized the way a company does business. Not only has it helped streamline business processes globally but has also helped in reaching out to potential customers in a much aggressive manner. Looking at the other side of the coin, one must consider the fact that by just having a web presence does not mean that you can do much better business. Your business would also largely depend upon how well your website is sighted or can be found on search engines.

Google Analytics Updates
If you’re using Google Analytic to monitor your website’s traffic, you’ve probably noticed a few changes lately. Google announced some updates to Analytic that will improve how you can view and sort data. (Note: these new features will be rolled out in the coming weeks, so you might not see everything yet.)
• Updated user interface. The new interface isn’t radically different, but some subtle changes in the shading and lines around the boxes make it seem fresh. It’s still a very clean look and nothing major has changed.
• Changes to management center. When you log in you’ll have quick summaries of all your stats. User management will also be improved, with better control over user accounts and access.
• Create custom reports. See exactly the information you want with custom reports. You’ll be able to make your own charts and graphs, giving you more power to analyze your data.
• Better traffic breakdowns. You’ll be able to more easily compare different kinds of traffic, like organic vs. PPC, and integrate that into custom reports.
• New Motion Charts. Google’s new feature gives you the ability to chart data on 5-axes. Neat bubbles, colors, and history trails show you how keywords have performed on a number of metrics.
• New API. With the new Analytic API, Google is opening the door to more developers to come up with features of their own.
• Ad Sense integration. This will take a few months to be completely available, but you will have better performance metrics to view traffic sources, referring sites, and page views.
Google is using You Tube to help them announce these updates, and you can view Google’s videos which demonstrate the new capabilities.

Can Industrial Businesses Leverage Social Media?
Terms like ’social media’, ’social search’ and ‘web 2.0′ are becoming increasingly more common in SEO and SEM, but have yet to make their way into the vocabulary of most industrial business owners. In fact, most tools that fall under the ’social category’ are still quite elusive to some internet marketers themselves, which then begs the question, “what exactly is social media, and can industrial businesses leverage it for their SEM campaigns?”
The answer to this question lies in the vary nature of social search itself. ‘Yes - If its socially acceptable.’ Social communities that aggregate and share content are user controlled and based largely on trust.
For example, www.digg.com is a social content website: a portal where users can submit content and news stories, vote on submissions, approve or disapprove of entries. The most popular stories (those that receive the most ‘diggs’) make the home page’… and that’s a traffic driving dream.
The catch is this: avid participators can spot spam a mile away. And if youre spotted, youre done for. The key to driving traffic by submitting content related to your business to sites like digg, is offering relevant, interesting or controversial content that people want to read. Remember to think outside of the engineering paradigm. Educate and Entertain! As a regular participator, you can gain trust among the community and increase your chances of receiving diggs for your story.
So, with a little creativity, discretion and persistence, you can set apart your industrial website and create a presence among this rapidly growing social web phenomenon.
DIGG TIPS
To truly be successful with dig, persistence pays. Submitting one story per week and evaluating several others will eventually tip the scale in your favor. Before submitting content to dig, try asking yourself the following questions:
Who are my customers, and what entertains them?
Is there valuable information I can give to my readers thats not already on my website?
Are there subjects of interest that overlap the industrial marketplace and the general public?
Sound like a pain? Too much to learn and digest? Take heed: this stuff is big. Check out the about pages of the two sites that could drive traffic like a cop.

Driving Traffic: “It’s not just qualified anymore!
Sounds strange. With all the hype about qualified traffic, PPC campaigns and increasing conversions, why is unqualified traffic suddenly a good thing?
Well, don’t run too far with this, because if you’ve got a paid program in place you might break the bank. However, in some instances, ANY traffic can help your keyword rankings.
Here’s how it works:
With the advent of social search and web 2.0, algorithms are placing an increasing importance on site relevance when returning search results. Not only are back link quantities a factor, but back link popularity, their age and their ‘trust-factor,’ as Google puts it.
The more visibility a site has in social content-sharing communities such as digg.com, the more people who bookmark sites at del.icio.us, and the more blogs linking to a site at technorati.com… the greater the ‘trust-factor.’ Google is quick to return a result that they deem trustworthy,or, ‘relevant.’
Here’s how it applies:
As an engineer, your client base probably isn’t scouring the internet for tech-i.e. social sites. However, there is an ample audience that just might be willing to link to an article entitled “25 alternative uses for a drill press” from their humor blog. The link counts. The visibility counts. The presence counts. And these three factors will, in the long haul, boost your key word placement in the search engines.
Yes, it takes time. Yes, it takes imagination. But the more traffic you have to your site, the higher its page ranks, and so forth. It’s a good thing! It means virtually ALL your visitors are qualified. (Sans those PPC-ers.) They are either ready to buy, or helping your rank. Bless’em!

Search Engine Optimization - Tricks of the trade
Search engines today recognize tricks such as Key-word packing, invisible keywords and cloaking. Many engines today have spam detectors and are looking constantly for over optimization procedures. Of course, ethical search engine optimization techniques are labor intensive and time consuming but that is the way we prefer. As always technology has to take the blame for some of the practices deployed by search engine optimizers. Each day sees a plethora of search engine optimization tools that promise to produce astounding results in a few hours. They only end up soaking the bandwidth of the search engine and its processing resources.
We don't consider "Search Engine Optimization" course as something secretive, something to be withheld.

Should I Have a Flash Website??
Another web design firm said they would design a ‘Flash’ website for me. Will you do that?”
It’s a frequent question. The answer is no. Let’s explore why.
First, let’s look at what Flash is.
Flash is a software package from Macromedia. I readily admit it’s quite amazing.
In fact, it’s so amazing that a web designer can get you very excited, imagining what your website will be like with all that great Flash action. One designer we know says in his brochure, “We design websites so cool your customers will show your friends.”
I guess that’s okay if you want a website to show off to your friends. I’d rather build a website that will promote your business, without costing you an arm and a leg. To heck with showing off to your friends.
Have you ever gone to a website, waited while the page loaded, and then watched an animated presentation before you could go to the real website?
That’s a “Flash” presentation. It’s really “cool.” So cool, that most web designers put a “Skip intro” button on it so you don’t have to watch it. And, if you’re like most of us, you skip the intro.
Why? Because it waste time.
Most Flash presentations take awhile to load on your computer, then you have to wait while they run, then you finally get to the information you want. (And you have to wait a bit for that to load, too.)
So flash is a nuisance.
From your standpoint, here’s why you don’t want a Flash website:
- It’s expensive. Developing good Flash elements takes a top-notch Flash designer. And takes time.
- It slows down your website. Not everyone has a broadband connection.
- It gets in the way of your guests who want to use your website. And you want their experience it be easy and pleasant.
Is there a place for Flash? Sure.
Check out one of my favorite and my own websites, webdesignexperts.com. They use Flash quite effectively, combining animation and sound. Would you like to guess at the thousands of dollars that cost?
One place you might want to use Flash is in putting audio and video on your website, not as an “intro” but as option buttons where your guests choose to watch a demonstration, or to listen to an explanation, to hear a customer describe an experience. For this, Flash is far superior to the typical approach to audio and video. That’s because Flash is already built in most web browsers, so you can the audio or video clip almost instantly, without special programs like QuickTime, Microsoft Media Player, or Real Media Player.
For audio and video clips, we’d rather see you use a service that makes it easy to manage and post the clips on your website. They won’t even tell you it’s Flash (because it’s more detail that you don’t need to know). The service makes it easy; the hard way is buying the Flash software, learning to use it, and figuring out how to put the clips on your website.
