For many marketers, search engine optimization or SEO is widely considered to be arguably one of the single most important factors that help guide people towards a website. If a website has done its homework properly and therefore conducted a more thorough search engine optimization, then the target audience for whose benefit the site has actually been set up, may also end up actually staying on the website for just about as long as its designers want them to do so. But on the contrary, should the website’s own SEO requirements not be taken care of, the way they should have been. There is also an off chance that the site will not be able to acquire the required hits and by extension conversions, regardless of how pretty and well made its overall design may well be.

Nevertheless, a point to be noted here is that just about all search engine optimization technologies and trends tend to change at near bewildering speeds and this is why, whatever may well have worked scarcely a short time ago, just might not bear the near critical importance it used to have back then. This is precisely why it has always been deemed prudent by online marketing experts to teach marketers to not just keep up with the trends, but to essentially try and get well ahead of the curve in an otherwise rapidly changing market.

However, regardless of how times may change, nevertheless some aspects of SEO always tend to remain constant, regardless of all other indicators.

o Keyword still remains the ‘key’

In the recent past, SEO strategies have become synonymous with ‘focus and meta keywords and meta descriptions and the like. As a matter of fact, keyword density has always been of seminal importance as far as a well-rounded SEO strategy is concentered.  While it is certainly as important as it has ever been to this day, nevertheless, as of now, it is being progressively outshined by the increasing reliance and focus on using that ‘just right’ keyword.

Any company running its website and desirous of attracting traffic has to do its own research this regard (preferably)beforehand, so as to be in a position to figure out precisely what those all-important keywords may well be.

In fact, it is important to note here that preferences that are discovered via ‘user intent’ instead of just simple volume alone, are by themselves the best means of acquiring the kind of hits on your site that you really need. This is due to the fact that the average web surfer today is both knowledgeable as well as net savvy to boot. Such an individual knows exactly what he wants as in he is well aware of the product that he is looking for and wants the same, at the least possible cost to himself.

 In fact, it is precisely due to this tendency as displayed by the target audience that many online entrepreneurs and other websites are also trying to their level best to optimize their very own SEO content, based on the real world requirements of their own respective target audiences. This eventuality has come to pass only because the vast majority of the popular search engines as they exist today (such as Google, Bing and Yahoo to quote but a few) have actually acquired the singularly unique ability to really be able to actually differentiate between the sheer quantity of the keywords dumped into the blog or article vs. the quality (that is, using the words in a manner that makes sense to the reader) in just about any content oriented website or even relevant keywords to ensure that the web site remains ever popular, in its own respective segment.

After all, once you have decided to center your website around any particularly specific set of (or series of) keywords, then the same will be bound to basically ensure that your site is a rich source of information and the vast number of people who visit your site regularly will also really want to know and understand the information that you are displaying on your site.

All of which in turn, will almost automatically lead to the dissemination of the kind of knowledge they wish to read and so help generate really great content that will be read and shared alike. When that happens, the ranking of your site will also increase at a steady rate and thereby climb steadily higher in the ratings of the more popular search engines around.

o Local listings vis-à-vis global ones

Let us consider the following example:

Mr. John Smith lives in Washington DC and wants a pair of running shoes delivered to his wife on their very first wedding anniversary. He logs on to the web from his office PC and commences looking for online running shoe retail outlets. He likes a really great pair of shoes in his wife’s size and clicks on it, only to find out that the outlet only delivers in the Florida Everglades. Unfortunately, all that time would have been wasted because he would then have to retype his query with the particulars of his home city, being prominently mentioned

Here, we can see that the Everglades outlet of the running shoe company did get a hit from a potential customer but the hit could never have led to an actual because it was from an entirely different geographical area. On the other hand, from the customer point of view, just about all the results that were beyond his immediate city location were utterly useless and an absolute waste of is precious time.

o Using the right keyword planning tool

This is precisely why the Everglades retail outlet has to put in place the ‘right’ keywords (from the SEO perspective that is) to direct only those customers to the site who would potentially be in a position to make the purchase. Certain keyword tools such as Jaaxy can help in this regard. Not only can Jaaxy effectively ensure that only truly relevant keywords are used in the descriptions of a product, but with the help of these keywords you can effectively ‘seed’ the whole website in order to attract the kind of traffic that is not just interested in your product, but both willing and able to purchase the same.
