Why have we created NouWeb
• Nouveau have been providing IT Services for
  19 years (pre Internet)
  – We have a massive hole in our portfolio, we
    provide the platform but didn’t provide the Design
    or e marketing side
  – In the past we gave web business away
  – Whose responsibility is the Website - IT or
    Marketing?
My other hat (as a business owner)
• I know the pain of trying to get new business
• Unless you’re an industry brand, winning
  business from the web (without professional
  help) is not easy
• I can relate to our customers

Does your Website deliver?

?....have you

Elements of an online strategy
Building an online road map

          Explore        Network

                              Strategy
 Research    On-page SEO
If you’re not achieving...

Ask yourself a number of straight questions...
• Are my goals realistic?
• Have you done your research?
• Do I have the correct platforms in place?
• Do I invest enough time?
• When needed do I invest enough money?
• Do I have enough resource?
• Is your strategy effective? Re-evaluate!
SEO
The Hard Facts!
1.) SEO Cannot Guarantee Results
No one can guarantee a #1 ranking on
Google – Google Webmaster Guidelines
2.) Keywords Don't Remain Top Forever
3.) Rankings Can Fluctuate at Times
4.) SEO is Not About Mass Link Building

              What is better?
       5 links from related sources
                    Or
150 links from directories and spam sites
5.) SEO is Just Like Website Maintenance
           It Has To Be On-going


              Improve            Content




                                       Link
          Review
                                     building


                        Social
6.) Slow and Steady Wins the Race

Instant or quick wins come in the form of
               Pay Per Click
7.) Nobody is partnered with Google




Google is a search engine not a marketing
                 agency
8.) Buying Links is Bad and Will Result in
        Penalties at Some Point
4 P’s of SEO


         Proactive      Patience




        Perseverance   Persistence
Patience
• No one is really patient, especially in
  business – everyone has bills to pay, bosses
  to report to, investors to satisfy…

• Often making it difficult to justify SEO spend
  in one quarter when results might happen
  the next quarter.
Persistence
• SEO isn’t something you can spend a few
  weeks doing, and then sit back and watch
  the traffic increase.

• In competitive niches, the competition is
  going to be working on something every
  day to reach a goal. Unless you’re doing the
  same or better, you’ll simply miss out
Perseverance
• No matter how strong your SEO strategy is,
  you don’t control the SERPs, the search
  engines do.

• Yes, you can influence it (sometimes very
  heavily), but you can’t control it.
Proactive
• Any SEO work done today likely won’t
  affect traffic or revenue today.

• Think and plan ahead. Make sure you
  factor in the long-term to your day-to-day
  activities.
Making SEO Work
For Your Business
Laying Foundations
• Perform keyword research for your niche

• Create a simple website structure

• Create unique content and page titles

• Build links to your new content from
  related sources
Page Structure
                 Include your KW in:
                 • Page title
                 • H1, H2 elements
                 • Variations
                     throughout
                     content body
                 • ALT tags of
                     images
                 • Ideally image
                     file name
Laying Foundations
• Ensure your site has a sitemap

• Create a robots.txt file - A robots.txt file is
  one that tells the search engines what
  they can and cannot index.
Making It Work
To ensure the hours you spend on SEO are
worthwhile it is vital to track and measure
every step and process taken
Making It Work
• SEO is an evolving beast and requires
  time and attention to improve results

• Constantly review your competition and
  the work they are doing

• Build authoritative links to your content
Making It Work
• Set yourself clear and realistic objectives

• Use industry knowledge – widely
  available from blogs including ours

• DO NOT try to cheat the system, you will
  be caught out
Want to win at SEO?


Create a solid foundation and
    gradually – patiently
          build on it.

Re-evaluate!
  • 44. 1.) SEO Cannot Guarantee Results No one can guarantee a #1 ranking on Google – Google Webmaster Guidelines
  • 45. 2.) Keywords Don't Remain Top Forever
  • 46. 3.) Rankings Can Fluctuate at Times
  • 47. 4.) SEO is Not About Mass Link Building What is better? 5 links from related sources Or 150 links from directories and spam sites
  • 48. 5.) SEO is Just Like Website Maintenance It Has To Be On-going Improve Content Link Review building Social
  • 49. 6.) Slow and Steady Wins the Race Instant or quick wins come in the form of Pay Per Click
  • 50. 7.) Nobody is partnered with Google Google is a search engine not a marketing agency
  • 51. 8.) Buying Links is Bad and Will Result in Penalties at Some Point
  • 52. 4 P’s of SEO Proactive Patience Perseverance Persistence
  • 53. Patience • No one is really patient, especially in business – everyone has bills to pay, bosses to report to, investors to satisfy… • Often making it difficult to justify SEO spend in one quarter when results might happen the next quarter.
  • 54. Persistence • SEO isn’t something you can spend a few weeks doing, and then sit back and watch the traffic increase. • In competitive niches, the competition is going to be working on something every day to reach a goal. Unless you’re doing the same or better, you’ll simply miss out
  • 55. Perseverance • No matter how strong your SEO strategy is, you don’t control the SERPs, the search engines do. • Yes, you can influence it (sometimes very heavily), but you can’t control it.
  • 56. Proactive • Any SEO work done today likely won’t affect traffic or revenue today. • Think and plan ahead. Make sure you factor in the long-term to your day-to-day activities.
  • 57. Making SEO Work For Your Business
  • 58. Laying Foundations • Perform keyword research for your niche • Create a simple website structure • Create unique content and page titles • Build links to your new content from related sources
  • 59. Page Structure Include your KW in: • Page title • H1, H2 elements • Variations throughout content body • ALT tags of images • Ideally image file name
  • 60. Laying Foundations • Ensure your site has a sitemap • Create a robots.txt file - A robots.txt file is one that tells the search engines what they can and cannot index.
  • 61. Making It Work To ensure the hours you spend on SEO are worthwhile it is vital to track and measure every step and process taken
  • 62. Making It Work • SEO is an evolving beast and requires time and attention to improve results • Constantly review your competition and the work they are doing • Build authoritative links to your content
  • 63. Making It Work • Set yourself clear and realistic objectives • Use industry knowledge – widely available from blogs including ours • DO NOT try to cheat the system, you will be caught out
  • 64. Want to win at SEO? Create a solid foundation and gradually – patiently build on it.

  1. So today will focus on understanding the task head – asking ourselves some hard hitting questionsDon’t take the easy option – often we find people taking short cuts.....Ecommerce example...only yesterday I was talking to someone who has recently found a piece of software online to build a shopping cart website, so uploading products etc is great, drag and drop and he said it was really cheap but now he found out that platform only processes paypal transactions and he needs a full shopping cart facility to process all the other payment options....and these is now going to cost him twice as much and has delayed his project?Know your competitors! Do your research, often this really overlooked as you can learn loads from your competitors, understanding what’s working for them and capitalising on areas where there focus is less.Creating Platforms is probably the most important part of this presentation – companies need to invest in future proof web platforms. We’ve seen some real horror story’s here and it pain me every time I see companies investing good money in bad technology and often its not the fact that the technology is bad it a case of it doesn’t fit their business requirements. And this is due to bad preparation and planning. Lastly once you know the task ahead, understand what your competitors are doing and you’ve researched and opted for some great flexible platforms to enable you to grow, you can start to develop a effective online strategy!
