It’s easy to waste a lot of time and money on SEO efforts that generate little or no revenue. Without a doubt, SEO needs to be a key part of your internet marketing plan.  That’s why all Cazbah Internet Marketing Consultants are experts who are highly skilled in the use of a variety of optimization tools. We don’t just focus on traffic and site visits, but more importantly on conversion and sales.

What is SEO? SEO stands for Search Engine Optimization. SEO is the process of improving a website’s organic ranking in search results. It involves strategic tactics including keyword research and analysis, content creation, HTML manipulation, and backlinking to enhance the authority and relevance of a particular website.

Why is SEO important?  Good SEO work will allow your website and web pages to rank well online. The vast majority, nearly 80%, of all Internet users begin their online search using a search engine. Making sure that your website and web pages are found, preferably at the top of the first page of the search results, is why SEO is so critical to small business success.

How does SEO at Cazbah work?  Cazbah’s SEO process is a well-defined, interdependent and sequential set of steps that are required in order to achieve desired results. Despite what you may have heard, there are no shortcuts to good SEO. We don’t take any uncalculated risks with your business on the web. That’s why your Internet Marketing Consultant won’t be recommending any SEO shortcuts. The risks are far too high and frankly, we just don’t do business that way.

Your Internet Marketing Consultant (IMC) works directly with you to understand your unique business, your products and your services. They want to know about who your customers are, where they are and why they buy from you. They take this information and put together a set of assumptions that they then validate and / or refute, based on extensive, additional research on the Internet. Using a variety of different SEO tools, your IMC will determine the appropriate keywords you should be using to optimize your new website in order to attract the right visitors to your site. Your IMC will then show you how to create compelling and useful content, how to give that content visibility on the internet and then how to measure the performance of that content.

Pay Per Click (also known as PPC) is most often associated with Google AdWords and can be an effective form of search engine advertising. For a fee, on a per-click basis, Google will place your listing (or ad) in a highlighted section called sponsored links or sponsored ads.  Your dedicated Internet Marketing Consultant will apply all of the process steps necessary to help you select the correct key terms for your search advertising campaigns. Cazbah is a Google AdWords certified Partner so you can be assured that we get the most our of your advertising dollars!

How does Pay Per Click work? Pay Per Click is a service that you pay for when your ad is clicked. We’ve found over the years that we can generate immediate search results and conversions for our small business customers through the effective use of PPC. Small businesses don’t have big budgets, so we suggest that you start small and consult your Internet Marketing Consultant. It won’t cost you anything to set up your AdWords account and to get your sponsored link (ad) on the SERP page. It only costs you when someone clicks on your link, and that is based on the bid price that you paid for it. Your dedicated Internet Marketing Consultant will assist you in selecting the appropriate keywords and bid price for your PPC campaigns.

Google allows you to set a budget on a daily, weekly or monthly basis, so you can manage your advertising expenses closely and determine how aggressively you want to invest in this part of your marketing strategy. This will also keep you from going over budget or spending money on non-converting keywords. Because of how PPC advertising works, you can get to the top of the SERP page with minimal investment. This in turn means that you’re likely to get immediate sales results as well.

What Your IMC Does: Making sure you get the right traffic from your PPC campaigns is essential. Your dedicated Internet Marketing Consultant will ensure that all your PPC campaigns are as efficient and effective as possible. Using Google Analytics, they will track the various keywords and phrases that are being searched. They will determine which of your ads has the best responses and which don’t, and whether or not you are getting any conversions (sales) from them. Armed with that knowledge, they will work with you to develop a plan to best move forward.
