Selecting SEO company through Korea search engine market environment.
In Korea, search engine market and environment are totally different from worldwide’s in lots of dimensions. Therefore, fully understanding Korean search engine environment is highly recommended for those who want to expand their sales and exposure their website to Korean web users through SEO (Search Engine Optimization) strategy.
To your surprise, Koreans are not familiar with the world’s best search engines such as “Google”or “Yahoo!”. Refer to the search volume share in Korea, Naver (NHN corp.) share more than 70% of the market, and Daum follow it while Yahoo! Korea and Google Korea shares only small portion. Korea SEO starts with understanding search engines in the Korean own way such as “Naver” and “Daum” eventually. Helping you choose great Korea SEO company, I will deal with two key points of Korea search engine market environments- Integrated search results and well-developed social media. Let’s take a look at how to select SEO company.
1. Korea SEO company which has Integrated Search marketing solution
Korean web users are used to using integrated search result to get useful information without shifting to other web pages such as ‘Images’, ‘Maps’, and ‘News’ in Google.
Korea search engines have lots of vertical in one page, so you can see various contents in one page. Especially, Naver and Daum show long integrated search result page. When you enter keyword on search tab, you will see keyword advertising (CPC, CPM), blog, community, answers, news, organic result, shopping info, video, image, and etc. all in 1 long page. Trying to follow this trend, even Google Korea made their search result more integrated. You have to make full use of it. For successful SEO campaign, you should focus not just in ranking, but also impression in various verticals.
In conclusion, basically, a creditable Korea SEO company should have a sufficient and complete understanding of this Korean special search engine environment. Therefore, Korea SEO company should be able to make full use of the integrated search result so that they can make a great impression in various verticals (Q&A,Blogs,News).
2. Korea SEO company which makes full use of well organized social media
Another feature of Korean web users is to voluntarily participate to write contents, make communities, ask questions and answer themselves by on purpose of commercial or interest. Therefore, social networks such as blog and Café, a kind of community sites which have membership account, are far stimulated in Korea. These verticals often appear in high position in search result page. Web users more likely believe the contents rather than advertisement copy even though the CPC (cost per click) of advertisement is ridiculously high.
Therefore, Korea SEO company should focus on social network sites such as blog and community as well as on PPC to take the highest place in search result page.
3. Other requirements for Korea SEO company
What is more, at least when it comes to SEO company, they have the dedicated implementation staff experiencing for many years who have leading edge SEM technology know-how and it would be better for SEO Company to be consist of professional marketers. By working side-by-side with you, great SEO company should be able to turn those visitors into sales for your company using SEO strategy.

Question about SEO
How to know if a SEO company is reputable?What's the easiest way to know and understand what a ethical SEO company is?
Is there a website with good references?
Posted in Business
There is so much free information out there on the net about SEO.
Remember SEO is not the end all and be all of internet marketing.
Some free sites to visit:
http://www.inboundinternetmarketingblog.com
http://www.sethgodin.com
http://www.davidmeermanscott.com
http://www.hubspot.com
Hubspot is a great company with a ton of free stuff.

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
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!

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.
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.
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.
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
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!
