Beat The Global Recession With SEO | SEO Traffic Spider
February 17th, 2010 | 
Author: As the world economy experiences a gloomy backdrop and continues to be on the brink of recession, its time to position yourself to a stand where you can still hope to profit from the recession.
There are several options you can consider to rise up in the shrinking economy, but an option that can really show remarkable results in every stage of your business lifecycle is search engine optimization.
SEO offers a platform for corporates, entrepreneurs, as well as individuals to promote their products and services across the web by helping them rank on top of search engines. The real essence of SEO is to ensure that profitable results are achieved regardless of the financial crises broadening and intensifying at every stage and suffocating the global economy.
Amidst all this, the point to focus is the SEO company one might open doors for as their solution provider. It may be a cake walk to hire one in no time, but, definitely not when you have to make sure the genuineness of the company which is a must.
With the right choice of an SEO company to work for you on an ongoing basis, you can expect better search engine rankings, which in turn compliment your SEO efforts with increased traffic. Long term sustainability and profitability are two factors that any company or individual will look forward to, and this is precisely what SEO can achieve if done the right way.
SEO done on a continual basis can help you beat your competition and gain more visibility and exposure by showing on the top of SERPs. Increased visibility creates more awareness about your website or blog and drives more targeted traffic which would otherwise be lost without SEO. Search engine optimization can help you plunge into a more comfortable zone by penetrating your target market and making the most out of your advertising dollars.
During economic recession, advertisers are more bound to find different means (online and offline) of advertising and promoting their products and services in order to sustain their business. However, these offline marketing mediums require a huge amount of money to promote a brand which may not be feasible for every person. It is at this point where one can hope to cash in on SEO which provides an opportunity to make all ends meet with affordable costs that are way less than offline marketing mediums.
If you are still considering your options to beat the global recession, its time to move forward with hiring an SEO professional who can potentially improve your ranking, performance, and save you time. However, it is important that you do not risk your company’s success with SEO practises that are questionable. Therefore, you must conduct a thorough research on SEO companies to avoid any damage some of them can cause to you by employing unethical techniques that are penalized by search engines.

Hard question. But here's what Search professionals do….
The one, best reference is to see if they are members of the largest most reputable group of Search professionals, SEMPO (the Search Engine Marketing Professionals Organization. Their directory of member companies is here: http://www.sempo.org/directories/ You can find one in your areas with that link. It's not an endorsement but it's very helpful.
What else can you do? Here are some RED flags – don't work with any vendor that says they guarantee or promise the top spot or even the first page. Either they can't deliver or they will get you rankings for keywords that don't prove value, such as for your brand name.
SEO's for small businesses are typically small businesses themselves, so get local references. Ask for five and call at least three. Remember that you don't need just traffic, you need "quality" traffic and that's what makes a good SEO. Ask the references if they get more SALES as a result.
As a fall-back, call your yellow page provider. All of them have an SEO program (AT&T, Yellow Book, Verizon etc.). They are reputable and have generally good results. You can also use Web.com, Yodle and Reach Local. They are national companies and have average results (see links below). They will also give you a good idea of what the right rates should be…
Good luck!
its guds

Sprank was too harsh regarding SEO.
Well SEO is one of the best and cost effective things which you can do with your business and gain lots & lots of popularity.
First step you should do is to look out for keywords using the following tool: https://adwords.google.com/select/KeywordToolExternal
Search for keywords and you will also find some similar words related to your keywords. Decide on keywords which are most related to your business and do the following activities:
Social Bookmarking – It means bookmarking your website on various Social Bookmarking websites like digg.com, delicious.com, jamespot.com, fanpop.com etc.
Question & Answers websites. Answers questions related to your business and get visitors to visit your website. There are many Q & A websites like Yahoo Answers, Blurtit.com, answerbag.com. yedda.com etc.
Above two will help you get referral traffic and some dofollow links from bookmarking websites will also help you in increasing website popularity.
Hmmmm,
I have used interstitial ads on a couple of my sites from a number of providers (adsense et al).
From my experience
Full Page Ads
In my honest opinion, they do not provide a consistent income as they only serve to annoy the web users. I tried and tested and would never use full page ads again (unless your only focus is income but this will come at the cost of users and traffic).
in text ads
these are somewhat less annoying for users – when using the in text ads I found that the revenue was pretty pump.
In my expereince, fixed ads work best, I use Google, Tradedoubler and Commision Junction. Google is always the highest performa but the other 2 can bring bigger commisions (depends on the site and volume of content). I like Google best as you get paid for the click, you never lose.
I run my free business websites on this principal, bigger sites can demand much higher prices simply for display so its a differant ballpark.
Anyway, I suggest minimal use of interstitail ads, fixed position (well placed and colour matching) has always been my winner.
UPDATE – missed the SEO part sorry.
From my experience interstitail ads are only damaging to SEO if you allow full page ads to open on a visitors first page visit. Example, Adsense Full page ads can be set to be displayed to visitors after a number of page views (1,3,5 if I recall correctly). I experimented with the 1 page ads but found that:
a, my ad revenue went down (surprisingly)
b, I had less page views with much higher bounce rates (not surprisingly)
c, page integration to search engines was slower (I'm guessing that the spiders bounced too)
Notwithstanding this, there was no change to actual page rank and visitor level were pretty much the same. From this we can conclude that full page ads are not the money spinner they would initially appear to be. To be honest, I dont think I would use this as an advertising means either.
Full page ads are on a par with pamphlets through your door, at first they were shiny and interesting, after a while they just get damn annoying. Once you annoy a user, you lose their interest! the rest is obvious.
I hope this helps. Maybe someone else has had some success.
I recommend that you go to http://www.websitegrader.com to check details like title length, meta tags…
It doesn't really matter what keywords you use for subpages as long as your page is optimized for them and your content is a match.
As long as you build backlinks to your site and subpages, you'l be going in the right direction!
If you have a web design company, try finding a SEO company to work with. My company was strictly graphics and web design, and for over a year I outsources all of my SEO jobs to a company I liked. Over the time, I slowly picked up things (all for free) and now I would consider myself very well versed in the field. I have now merged my company with the other to create http://www.Webmosa.com – I am very happy with the way I learned. Plus, if you plan to sell the service you are at least getting trained by actual professionals in the field. SEO changes over time, and one needs to stay on top of the game in order to be the best. Google "Tacoma SEO", within 1 month of the merger and launch of our new site we are already 5th on page one – crushing other companies that have been around for years.
To be the best, learn from the best. SEO books and blogs are often out dated.
Onsite seo is related to everything that takes place on your actual website.
The most important factors as to my knowledge are your page
titles
meta description
meta keywords
internal linking
keywords density
usage of latent symentic indexing
sitemaps
robots.txt
alt tags for images
This along with strong offsite seo should help you rank very well in the search engines.
hope this helps
As long as there is enough electricity there will be internet and if there's internet there will be search engines and if there are search engines there will be SEO (Search Engine Optimization).
However, Google does continue to refine methods to filter out black-hat SEO techniques (SPAM / Abuse).
So, basically short of an apocalyptic event, SEO will still be around for a foreseeable future.
Good Luck!
Thanks, TheWriter
Instead of putting up a standard "Under construction" page I would put up a page of text describing what will be on the site. This way if search engines find it they will know how to index it.
