What is Search Engine Optimization?
What is Search Engine Optimization? Search Engine Optimization (SEO) is the science of search as it relates to marketing/advertising on the internet. SEO is the process of improving the volume and quality of traffic to a website from search engines via “natural” (“organic” or “algorithmic”) search results. Typically, the earlier a site appears in the search results list, the more visitors it will receive from the search engine. SEO may target different kinds of search, including image search, local search, and industry-specific vertical search engines. It is mostly technical and methodical in nature, combining programming with business, persuasion, sales, and a love for competitive puzzle solving into a written form capable of maintaining desired revenue goals while achieving high rankings in the organic or natural sections of search engine results pages. It is not just technical, nor copywriting, nor link exchange, nor search engine submissions, but an intricate blend of over a hundred variables into the fabric of a web site. It is difficult to accomplish without a formal proven methodology and strong proprietary tools.

strategies + techniques + tactics
SEO techniques can be classified into two broad categories: techniques that search engines recommend as part of good design, and those techniques of which search engines do not approve. The search engines attempt to minimize the effect of the latter, among them spamdexing. Some industry commentators have classified these methods, and the practitioners who employ them, as either white hat SEO, or black hat SEO. White hats tend to produce results that last a long time, whereas black hats anticipate that their sites may eventually be banned either temporarily or permanently once the search engines discover what they are doing.
An SEO technique is considered white hat if it conforms to the search engines’ guidelines and involves no deception. As the search engine guidelines are not written as a series of rules or commandments, this is an important distinction to note. White hat SEO is not just about following guidelines, but is about ensuring that the content a search engine indexes and subsequently ranks is the same content a user will see. White hat advice is generally summed up as creating content for users, not for search engines, and then making that content easily accessible to the spiders, rather than attempting to trick the algorithm from its intended purpose. White hat SEO is in many ways similar to web development that promotes accessibility, although the two are not identical.
Black hat SEO attempts to improve rankings in ways that are disapproved of by the search engines, or involve deception. One black hat technique uses text that is hidden, either as text colored similar to the background, in an invisible div, or positioned off screen. Another method gives a different page depending on whether the page is being requested by a human visitor or a search engine, a technique known as cloaking.
There are no Search Engine Optimization secrets — just ranking and placement methodologies/techniques to follow in order to beat your competition in obtaining a high ranking for desired search keywords. The objective of Search Engine Optimization is to increase web visitor counts by increasing your page rank within the results of searches using the most appropriate keywords describing the content of your site. Proper Search Engine Optimization requires that you beat your competition. Knowing the keywords and criterion used by your competition is the most important first step. It will become obvious that good page ranking excludes keyword spamming on search engines, instead carefully selecting your unique/non-generic keywords in conjunction with a variety of other techniques.

Marc and Mike,
Working with the Netwide Media Group team these past few months has been a very positive experience. After explaining my vision for my website, they were able to come up with an extremely creative look. They were very professional, answering all of my questions in a timely manner and in a way in which I understood the process. I definitely recommend their services for anyone needing a website of any kind.

Dear Netwide,
So far I have been very pleased. I hope you understood my hesitation. When you have a bad experience like I did, its hard to trust another company. I’m looking forward to adding products to my website… This should happen in February. I look forward to continuing to work with you. I’m going to need some help with Search Engine Placement and Updates in the future.

Working with Netwide Media Group was one of the best experience I’ve ever had.
I needed my site designed using RTML, a language I was very unfamiliar with and used Netwide Media Group. It turned out to be a great decision to use them.
Not only did they work with me on my payment terms, I was also included in every step of the process and all my questions and concerns were address immediately. Miral and her team worked effectively. I am so satisfied and amazed at the great work they did, it was beyond my expectations. I will definitely work with this company again for all my RTML needs. Thanks to Marc, Miral and her team, I received exactly what I asked for.

Dear Mr. Gordon:
Thank you VERY MUCH for the refreshingly professional stance you’ve taken.
Your associate, Mr. Christopher Acebo called, and courteously made the 4-5 changes that were required. He spent at/near 20 minutes or slightly more, and did it in such a kind and professional manner that I was extremely pleased and surprised.
I want to become a “regular” client of your firm. I will be in touch in the very near future.

Hi Marc,
I am very pleased with your company and the quality of work, it would be an honor to be added to your portfolio.

Our experience with Netwide Media Group was great, This was our third ( 3rd ) designer we have engaged to complete our site. They are professionals with an emphasis on quality of design as well as product placements. As with any project, we were eager to get our site completed and at some point became frustrated at the speed at which we thought the project should have been moving . These guys remained focus and delivered our site within the time frame promised. Finally, the training received was excellent and we are able to fully manage our back end functions.

To the team at Netwide Media Group I must say job well done! Especially, working with Marc and Mike you all were prompt. Within my budget was my main concern and you all had no problem working with that. A project that I was trying to complete for months was completed by your team in record time. Great job and my store look just the same. I’m sure when a potential customer visit my store they’ll be pleased with your work.

Hi Marc
The communication with both you and Chris was good, the quality of work was also good and Chris spent a long time walking me through the Yahoo store when he finished, this was most helpful and greatly appreciated! I still have a few questions and will e-mail them to Chris but his work and your service was very helpful and I would be happy to recommend you.
