There are some excellent practitioners who are giving up their time to ensure that 'the truth' is out there and stamping out misconceptions.  All hail those individuals!  However, the best way to really search out what is going on in the world of search is to attend the conferences.  Danny Sullivan's incisive conferences (SES) are world renowned and draw together the leaders of the search engine optimisation industry.  His new conferences will, I am positive, draw the same quality contributors, exhibitors and participants. &lt;br /&gt;If you have never attended a search engine optimisation conference, then now is the time to do so.  With the lastest information on social networking, the importance of organic search engine optimisation and the waning of search engine marketing and other such topics being covered, it is a must for any SEO or website owner.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/20301416-116845594706385596?l=seo-international.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='related' href='http://www.increasewebprofits.com' title='SEO Developments'/><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://seo-international.blogspot.com/feeds/116845594706385596/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=20301416&amp;postID=116845594706385596' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/20301416/posts/default/116845594706385596'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/20301416/posts/default/116845594706385596'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://seo-international.blogspot.com/2007/01/seo-developments.html' title='SEO Developments'/><author><name>Information</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20301416.post-116041442946398887</id><published>2006-10-09T10:20:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2006-10-09T10:20:30.223-07:00</updated><title type='text'>SEO Project</title><content type='html'>The SEO project for &lt;a href="http://www.egadge.com"&gt;european gadget suppliers&lt;/a&gt; Egadge is now commencing.

In addition to the usual site architecture and strategies on page, off page link building is essential.  The need for good quality in-bound links (not reciprocal links) from page rank 5 or 6 sites is vital for good organic optimisation (OSEO). You should not expect to pay more than about £10 a month for a pagerank 5 link and £20 a month for a pagerank 6 site.  Verifying that these are quality sites that will give you great textual links are, of course, necessary.  Each of these links are worth 20 poorer quality links as google will rate these much higher and, hence, rank your site higher.  An effective SEM (search engine marketing) campaign whilst these links are being constructed is paramount, too.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/20301416-114656199511403609?l=seo-international.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://seo-international.blogspot.com/feeds/114656199511403609/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=20301416&amp;postID=114656199511403609' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/20301416/posts/default/114656199511403609'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/20301416/posts/default/114656199511403609'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://seo-international.blogspot.com/2006/05/link-building-for-effective-organic.html' title='Link building for effective organic search engine optimisation'/><author><name>Information</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20301416.post-114554059501191506</id><published>2006-04-20T06:38:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2006-09-30T02:16:33.343-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Organic SEO gets even better!</title><content type='html'>The organic search engine optimisation of a sports equipment retailer client is delivering fast results.

This confirms previous studies that the number one result gets many more clicks than all other results.&lt;br /&gt;In this particular study, the researchers did a second test, wherein they secretly swapped the order of the top two search hits. The original number two entry in the search engine's prioritisation ended up on top, and the top entry was relegated to second place.&lt;br /&gt;Although the search results were different, users still clicked on the top entry 34% of the time and on the second hit 12% of the time.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So, what does this mean to search engine optimisation specialists (SEO) and our clients web sites?

What that means for search engine optimisation is a matter of debate inside the industry. But along PageRank toolbars, ranking has increased for lower ranked sites while it has decreased for previously higher ranked sites.&lt;br /&gt;This indicates that there is something to PageRank, even if the industry aficionados don't always agree on what. The general consensus, however, is that PageRank is not as important for your site, as it is for other sites linking to your site. That is, if a highly ranked and trusted site links to yours, you get more credibility.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/20301416-114106720212310792?l=seo-international.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://seo-international.blogspot.com/feeds/114106720212310792/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=20301416&amp;postID=114106720212310792' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/20301416/posts/default/114106720212310792'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/20301416/posts/default/114106720212310792'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://seo-international.blogspot.com/2006/02/search-engine-optimisation-specialists.html' title='Search Engine Optimisation Specialists - Google Update'/><author><name>Information</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20301416.post-114046901515836770</id><published>2006-02-20T12:45:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2006-02-20T12:56:56.953-08:00</updated><title type='text'>Search Engine Optimisation scores!</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://www.google.co.uk"&gt;Google&lt;/a&gt; &amp; &lt;a href="http://www.msn.co.uk"&gt;MSN&lt;/a&gt;, the major search engines, can be enticed to crawl sites if the following SEO procedures are followed:  appropriate meta tags, title, description &amp; relevant content, quality IBL's, appropriate OBL's.

Those often overlooked search terms, that are so important to a website's placement in the search rankings, are a vital component of any search engine optimisation (SEO) effort. Without keywords for the search engines  - Google, MSN, Yahoo- to index, there is literally nothing to find in the search engine results pages (SERPs). Keywords are the function of the search engines. As a result of those searches, your most important keywords are what lead potential customers to your web pages. This is where &lt;a href="http://www.increasewebprofits.com"&gt;search engine optimisation specialists &lt;/a&gt;can help by making sure that this is foremost in the customer's mind. Take care of keywords, and they will take care of you. The importance of keywords to an SEO specialist and to a website is felt in two ways. The first area of consideration, when writing the on page and off page content, is keyword placement on the page. Where the keywords are located is important, to varying degrees, with the major search engines. The second area of importance for keywords is their density on the page. How many keywords appear on the page, makes a difference to all of the search engine algorithms. The choice of which keywords to target on a page is often of vital importance, especially for highly competitive keywords. Search engine optimisation helps to put issues like this to the fore and SEO specialists can dramatically increase organic rankings.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/20301416-114037490124796151?l=seo-international.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://seo-international.blogspot.com/feeds/114037490124796151/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=20301416&amp;postID=114037490124796151' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/20301416/posts/default/114037490124796151'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/20301416/posts/default/114037490124796151'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://seo-international.blogspot.com/2006/02/keywords-essential-tool-for-seo.html' title='Keywords essential tool for SEO'/><author><name>Information</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20301416.post-113943014575261407</id><published>2006-02-08T12:22:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2006-03-26T06:09:07.630-08:00</updated><title type='text'>Amazon to create Contextual Adverts!</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://www.increasewebprofits.com"&gt;Search Engine Optimisation specialists &lt;/a&gt;&amp;amp; Search Engine Marketing bods will be interested to learn that Amazon has just confirmed its intention to create its own version of the Adsense programme.

Here are three proven, time-tested methods for generating targeted web site traffic:&lt;br /&gt;* Search Engine Marketing: Optimise Your Web Site for Search Engines. Search engine optimisation ( SEO ) is the process of modifying web page content and meta-information to improve the search engine ranking of the page. Meta-information includes HTML tags (title, heading, emphasized text, keyword and description meta-tags), as well as the internal (links between pages on the same site) and external (links between pages on different sites) link structure of a web site. Using good keywords to optimise your web site for search engines such as &lt;a href="http://www.google.co.uk"&gt;google&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href="http://www.msn.co.uk"&gt;MSN&lt;/a&gt; &amp;amp; &lt;a href="http://www.yahoo.co.uk"&gt;Yahoo &lt;/a&gt;helps you bring targeted traffic to your web site.&lt;br /&gt;* Create a &lt;a href="http://seo-international.blogspot.com"&gt;Business Blog&lt;/a&gt;. This is an excellent tool to aid in the search engine optimisation process and to let the world know about your new products, and tell your target customers why they should do business with you, rather than your competitor.&lt;br /&gt;Syndicating (allowing other web sites to reprint) your articles also helps you build traffic to your web site and is an excellent SEO / SEM tool. The terms of use of your article state that reprinting in any form is allowed only if the site that uses the article includes a resource box. A resource box is a block of text that appears after the article. It typically consists of 2-4 sentences that include your bio and a link back to your business web site.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/20301416-113873568397348932?l=seo-international.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='related' href='http://www.increasewebprofits.com' title='Increasing Web Profits through Search Engine Optimisation'/><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://seo-international.blogspot.com/feeds/113873568397348932/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=20301416&amp;postID=113873568397348932' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/20301416/posts/default/113873568397348932'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/20301416/posts/default/113873568397348932'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://seo-international.blogspot.com/2006/01/increasing-web-profits-through-search_31.html' title='Increasing Web Profits through Search Engine Optimisation'/><author><name>Information</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20301416.post-113820572757986620</id><published>2006-01-25T08:11:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2006-01-31T11:42:38.210-08:00</updated><title type='text'>Search Engine Optimistation Project crawled by MSN</title><content type='html'>A success for Organic search engine optimisation (SEO) was recorded today as the &lt;a href="http://www.increasewebprofits.com"&gt;Ameliorate&lt;/a&gt; website - Search Engine Optimisation UK's sister site - was crawled the same day it was uploaded by both &lt;a href="http://www.msn.co.uk"&gt;MSN&lt;/a&gt; &amp;amp; &lt;a href="http://www.yahoo.co.uk"&gt;Yahoo&lt;/a&gt;!

Content needs to be updated regularly, navigation simplified and shared analysis of on-site traffic is increasingly important. Top10 websites, especially around their main entry points, have become production pieces requiring a greater degree of strategic planning than the general, annually updated brochure sites do. Creation of that content needs to be considered a standing business expense though that expense should be more than made up for in long-term advertising savings.&lt;br /&gt;While Google is making it easier for search marketers and advertisers, its goal is obviously to make itself more money by increasing click-through rates while collecting user data from the millions of websites signing up with the service. It has also provided SEOs with a dashboard view of critical factors involved with how it ranks sites.&lt;br /&gt;The practice of search engine optimization has in some ways become more difficult but in others, has actually gotten easier. SEO has come a log way since its early days in the mid 1990's. A decade ago, SEOs were considered secretive and manipulative cowboys, roughneck mercenaries who would (because they could) do just about anything to get a site ranked in the Top10 on the major engines of the time. There were more search engines along with a variety of directories, spidered databases such as Inktomi that sold results to other engines.&lt;br /&gt;This switch, combined with the rapid growth of the Web necessitated better search algorithms and a crackdown on manipulative search marketers. At the same time, the SEO and SEM sectors have seen tremendous growth due mostly to a shift towards paid-search marketing by major advertisers and the attendant growth of interest in &lt;a href="http://www.google.co.uk"&gt;Google&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href="http://www.yahoo.co.uk"&gt;Yahoo &lt;/a&gt;and &lt;a href="http://www.msn.co.uk"&gt;MSN&lt;/a&gt;. The (organic) search engine marketing sector has doubled or perhaps tripled in size in just twenty-four months as new practitioners were hired by established SEO firms or forming their own businesses. Many of those new practitioners have spent that time absorbing and adding to the huge volume of information that makes up the SEO sector's knowledge base.&lt;br /&gt;Those SEO specialists are coming of age, professionally speaking, and are very good at what they do. Organic search engine marketing and these new SEO skills are going to be an important asset to the sector in the coming year as the business of search expands way beyond the desktop and into everyday life. Change is good.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/20301416-113724576130102202?l=seo-international.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='related' href='http://seo-specialists.blogspot.com' title='Organic Search Engine Marketing - optimisation specialists update!'/><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://seo-international.blogspot.com/feeds/113724576130102202/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=20301416&amp;postID=113724576130102202' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/20301416/posts/default/113724576130102202'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/20301416/posts/default/113724576130102202'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://seo-international.blogspot.com/2006/01/organic-search-engine-marketing.html' title='Organic Search Engine Marketing - optimisation specialists update!'/><author><name>Information</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20301416.post-113724471828700382</id><published>2006-01-14T04:50:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2006-01-14T05:20:29.306-08:00</updated><title type='text'>Blackberry Gets Google Talk and Google Local</title><content type='html'>An interesting development for Search Engine Optimisation Specialists was reported by &lt;a href="http://today.reuters.com/news/newsArticle.aspx?type=internetNews&amp;storyID=2006-01-12T152137Z_01_ARM241019_RTRUKOC_0_US-BLACKBERRY-GOOGLE.xml"&gt;Reuters&lt;/a&gt; on 13th Jan as Google and Research in Motion(RIM.TO: &lt;a href="http://today.reuters.co.uk/stocks/Quote.aspx?symbol=RIM.TO"&gt;Quote&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href="http://today.reuters.co.uk/stocks/CompanyProfile.aspx?symbol=RIM.TO"&gt;Profile&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href="http://today.reuters.co.uk/stocks/ResearchReports.aspx?symbol=RIM.TO"&gt;Research&lt;/a&gt;) - maker of the Blackberry mobile device - have announced an agreement that will put Google Local Search, Maps and Google Talk software onto new Blackberry devices.

Flash animation is hard for crawlers (&lt;strong&gt;Google, MSN, Yahoo&lt;/strong&gt; spiders) to read - even the macromedia website doesn't use Flash as it interferes with optimisation ... an interesting observation for SEO specialists - so offer an HTML alternative of the same content from the homepage. CSS (Cascading Style Sheets) are a good alternative to Flash or tables. Site maps give crawlers access to parts they might miss. Designers should avoid session IDs and other 'infinite pages' like calendars that can 'trap' crawlers. Also avoid overlong and complex URLs.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Relevant content - &lt;/strong&gt;The maxim 'content is king' is repeated by marketers and search engine optimisation specialists alike. More content, frequently updated is best, but only when focused on a theme. Corporate keywords that define the company and its products or services should focus on that theme, and should also be used in page titles - the phrase running along the top of a web browser - which search engines take as the most important way to understand a site and which many sites waste with a welcome message. These should be limited to the 75 characters that show up on search results pages. HTML tags or meta-tags should also use keywords, but web sites built to comply with accessibility standards &lt;a href="http://www.w3.org/WAI/"&gt;http://www.w3.org/WAI/&lt;/a&gt; will already include these. Analyst group Forrester recommends choosing keywords based on customer 'personas' and search terms that already deliver visitors.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/20301416-113649107963826775?l=seo-international.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='related' href='http://seo-international.blogspot.com' title='Search Engine Optimisation - Key SEO optimisation strategies'/><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://seo-international.blogspot.com/feeds/113649107963826775/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=20301416&amp;postID=113649107963826775' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/20301416/posts/default/113649107963826775'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/20301416/posts/default/113649107963826775'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://seo-international.blogspot.com/2006/01/search-engine-optimisation-key-seo.html' title='Search Engine Optimisation - Key SEO optimisation strategies'/><author><name>Information</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20301416.post-113641330669834282</id><published>2006-01-04T14:21:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2006-01-05T12:14:46.746-08:00</updated><title type='text'>Worlds Largest Companies missing out on £billions through failing to pay attention to SEO!</title><content type='html'>The world’s largest companies are missing out on billions of online pounds by failing to optimise their websites for search engine listings, according to an article by Tim Bradshaw at infoconomy. &lt;a href="http://www.infoconomy.com"&gt;http://www.infoconomy.com&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Search engine rankings (and therefore search engine optimisation) are a vital component of an Internet presence: More than three quarters of hits on Internet home pages are directed there via a search engine; and half of consumers research online prior to making purchases. But many of the world's largest businesses are failing to take advantage of this growing channel for acquiring customers.&lt;br /&gt;Analyst group IDC says that £4 billion was spent online in the UK in 2004, making up 7% of all retail sales. But analysis of user behaviour suggests that many search engine users never scroll down the screen to look at lower ranking results. This leaves a narrow window of just half a dozen results. Anything outside the top 30 results is essentially invisible - though contrary to popular myth, 'eye-tracking' has found the first two rankings are both seen equally.&lt;br /&gt;Worryingly, there appears to be little understanding of the importance of search engine ranking by leading businesses. Research by Screen Pages, a provider of managed ecommerce services, found that less than a third of 18 UK high street retailers' websites it surveyed had broad coverage on &lt;strong&gt;Google, Yahoo or MSN&lt;/strong&gt;; only half showed evidence of a basic search engine optimisation (SEO) strategy; and less than a quarter had "high-street grade" page ranks - &lt;strong&gt;Google's&lt;/strong&gt; measure of site importance. Another study, by search engine marketing company Oneupweb, found that only one in eight of the Fortune 100's websites were adequately optimised for web searches....&lt;br /&gt;So, who says search engine optimisation is dying? A focused marketing campaign using PPC, where appropriate, plus organic links is vital for all web businesses.&lt;br /&gt;For further advice, comment and information about the world of Search Engine Optimisation, please email me at &lt;a href="mailto:howell.seo@gmail.com"&gt;howell.seo@gmail.com&lt;/a&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/20301416-113641330669834282?l=seo-international.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='related' href='http://www.infoconomy.com/pages/information-age/group107991.adp' title='Worlds Largest Companies missing out on £billions through failing to pay attention to SEO!'/><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://seo-international.blogspot.com/feeds/113641330669834282/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=20301416&amp;postID=113641330669834282' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/20301416/posts/default/113641330669834282'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/20301416/posts/default/113641330669834282'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://seo-international.blogspot.com/2006/01/worlds-largest-companies-missing-out.html' title='Worlds Largest Companies missing out on £billions through failing to pay attention to SEO!'/><author><name>Information</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20301416.post-113629081638362175</id><published>2006-01-03T04:17:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2006-03-26T06:08:08.176-08:00</updated><title type='text'>Organic Search Optimisation vs Sponsored Results</title><content type='html'>Sponsored links are marketed as a sure-fire way to lure consumers to specific Web sites, but a Penn State study shows most online shoppers don't take the bait. "Consumers have a bias against the links that businesses pay search engines to provide," said Jim Jansen, assistant professor in the Penn State School of Information Sciences and Technology (IST). "By themselves, sponsored links appear not to be a viable business model and &lt;strong&gt;should be only one part of an online advertising campaign&lt;/strong&gt;." According to recent reports, businesses spent an estimated $8 billion to sell their products and services via sponsored links in 2004, despite little evidence that such advertising successfully directs traffic to Web sites. More likely to hook consumers are the organic search results or those results returned automatically by the algorithmic operations of the search engine, Jansen said.&lt;br /&gt;Please refer to &lt;a href="http://seospecialists.blogspot.com"&gt;Search Engine Marketing Specialists Blog &lt;/a&gt; for further readings and advice on this. Google and other search engines also provide advice as to how it is important to have sponsored links in the initial period of an internet business, however, it is far more important to have a search engine optimisation strategy for long term to benefit from ROI and better market penetration.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/20301416-113629081638362175?l=seo-international.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://seo-international.blogspot.com/feeds/113629081638362175/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=20301416&amp;postID=113629081638362175' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/20301416/posts/default/113629081638362175'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/20301416/posts/default/113629081638362175'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://seo-international.blogspot.com/2006/01/organic-search-optimisation-vs.html' title='Organic Search Optimisation vs Sponsored Results'/><author><name>Information</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20301416.post-113628946220063356</id><published>2006-01-03T03:53:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2006-01-03T03:57:42.200-08:00</updated><title type='text'>Integrity within the SEO industry is key for clients</title><content type='html'>Web businesses require optimisation to score highly in the organic search results.
