Is SEO a Waste of Money?

It probably seems rather odd to launch a new blog on Search Engine Optimization and have the first post be written about it being a waste of money. I should probably support this opinion by throwing out a bunch of impressive numbers with lots of comma's that I dug up during my hours of research, but to be completely transparent, I really didn't do hours of research to write this. I could also talk about the amount of money spent on Search Engine Optimization each year and of course show its effectiveness with a really cool 3D chart, but charts and graphs generally irk me.

I have chosen instead to write from my own experience as the owner of an SEO company as well as a client...as a student of some of the most well known SEO guru's in the industry as well as a teacher. Many of you are going to agree with what I have to say throughout the course of this and many of you won't...and both of you are welcome and encouraged to leave your comments!

So, what exactly makes SEO a waste of money? Well, if your primary goal is to get a top 10 listing on Google, you can accomplish that fairly easily with little or no effort. You don't need to pay someone like me to do it. All you need to do is find a keyword phrase that doesn't have that much competition, write an article or two using it, make sure it's in the title of your page and create a handful of external links using that phrase. Tada! So how come the phone still isn't ringing?

It's because there are so many vital aspects to SEO that go well beyond keyword research and placement and yet they are almost always overlooked. In most cases, it is because your goals are off. Most companies focus on a top 10 listing or doubling traffic, neither of which is a guarantee that business is going to improve. At the end of the day, what do you want the outcome of your campaign to be? I would think that it is to grow your business, correct?

If that is your goal, then it is clear that there is more to Search Engine Optimization than just your ranking and traffic. You need to think about all of the following and then some:

Ideal Client: If you aren't clear on who your ideal client is, then how will you know what they want? Suppose you run a salon and your target audience is "anyone with hair." How will you be able to connect with your visitor when a young woman has completely different needs than an older man? Yet, they all have hair.

Design: You can drive tens of thousands of visitors to your website, but if the site doesn't have the look, feel and quality that the visitor is expecting, they will not do business with you. Try launching a bank website with really bright colors and pictures of bank vaults, gold coins and stacks of cash everywhere and let me know how it goes.

Keywords: When you are clear on who your ideal client is, put yourself in their shoes and learn what they are searching for and how they search for it. Someone who might be looking for a plumber to redesign their bathroom will search in a completely different way than someone coming home to 2 feet of water in their basement.

Content: Writing quality content that will appease the search engines at the same time that it inspires the reader is the key. If you cram your keyword phrase in the text enough times, you may get a good ranking but when your visitor reads your text you may come across as illiterate.

Solutions: Provide solutions for your visitors rather than patting yourself on the back all over your site. When someone does a search online they are either looking for the solution to a problem or the answer to a question. if you site is focused primarily on you and what you have done and what your credentials are, you aren't solving the visitors problem and they will leave the site and find someone that will. Think about it. If you throw your back out and go to the chiropractor, do you want him to ramble on about where he went to school or do you want him to fix the problem?

These are just a few of the things we are going to talk about around here. As a reader, my request to you is that if you have an opinion, share it. This blog will work well with me talking to you, but it will work so much better if we all talk to each other!

can i bleach my hair platinum blonde if.. ? pleaseee answerr xx?


if ive dyed it before? my hair is like this colour http://www.hopefashions.com/images/color-chart.gif
number 8, dirty blonde, but in november i dyed it golden blonde(box dye not bleach), it didn't really change colour its still dirty blonde but with golden tones in the sun.. this was in november though and i haven't dyed it since but it was permanent dye. i have really healthy silky hair with no split ends, and its naturally straight.. if that makes a difference.. and i was planning on going to a Professional salon to get it done. please don't tell me not to bleach and about how damaging it is, i already know this as ive seen a few people with really bad hair damage from bleach, but ive seen people with really nice healthy bleached hair too.. "/ ive been wanting to do this for over a year and im going to in july
any tips would be nice too :) xx
someone answerr :(

Use a Cream Bleach (tint)
a High Lift 1 It Wont Damage Ur Hair As Much As Bleach;
If You Go Into Salon Services Get It In The GoldWell Brand; In the 12 series Its Good;
i Use It In The Salon Alot;
But If You Do Choose To Bleach Ur Hair Only Do It With 30vol Max Or Ur Hair Will b Really Dry;
And Always Use a Silvering Shampoo To Keep It Platnum Not Brassy
Good Luck Hope This Helps

Description

Out of the ancient past comes the secret of coloring hair with plants and water, without chemicals. Colora will not penetrate the hair or change its structure, but each and every hair shaft will actually be wrapped and its body thus visibly increased with the very first application. Colora Henna works wonders for hair, especially if it feels dull and lifeless. Henna adds body and bounce, and offers a choice of rich but subtle color changes. Colora's "natural" shade will add extra body and shine with no change in color. All the other twelve shades will add a thin layer of transparent color so that the original hair color will shine through and enhance the final result for the ultimate natural look.

Features

  • Guaranteed to cover gray hair.
  • No peroxide, ammonia, resorcinol, PPD, parabens or heavy metals.
  • Easy to use.
  • Semi-permanent hair coloring in a cream that revitalizes and conditions the hair.
