There are numerous advantages to working with a local SEO company. Foremost among them are meetings and training.
- Convenient and more effective meetings - Nothing supplants the effectiveness of meeting in person to create maximum understanding of a company's goals. Meeting in person is also advantageous for developing long term working relationships. We all want to work with people we like. Sitting together in front of a computer screen is the best way to work on many projects. Nothing really takes the place of the ability to point with your finger.
- Convenient and more effective training - Many companies choose to do their own ongoing SEO work once the systems and tools are in place. Training in person is always more effective than online training. The ability to go back, ask questions, point to the screen, and repeat tasks is greatly enhanced by training in person.

| It's been said, from a close colleague of mine, that you have about 3 seconds to grab someone's attention when they stumble upon your website. Whether this figure is right or wrong is moot (besides, we live in a fast-paced society), what it means is that you have to be aware of how fast your internet site loads it's contents.
This is tricky, because it seems as if all-Flash sites are all the rage nowadays, despite the love/hate relationship these dynamic sites share with SEO, and let's face it, Flash sites do look GOOD, but you can have too much of a good thing (my suggestion is to incorporate small amounts of Flash i.e. a logo, header, menu, etc.).
As a general tip you need to remember that a loading bar does not excuse a slow loading site either, they're good for personal sites, but if you're running a business you need your content up and running right away. Another tip is to use CSS. CSS will cut down on coding and keep things organized especially since you can have an external CSS style sheet apply to multiple pages.
Picture optimization is also important. Saving pictures in certain formats can help, but generally stick to jpeg formats and keep the size down to around 3-500 pixels in width and height (depending on ratio). | |
Two of the most popular Denver SEO companies are OrderStorm Inc., www.OrderStorm.com, and US Web Central, www.USWebCentral.com. These companies are known to use only legitimate SEO techniques approved by the search engines and discourage their clients from participating in black hat SEO techniques like link farms.
Other local services offered by these Denver SEO companies include web design, e-commerce shopping carts, video spokesperson, web application development, drop shipping software, multiple storefront software, website hosting and WordPress hosting. | |
With all the rumors swirling around Google's tinkering with their black box algorithm to make search results "real-time," now is a perfect time to look into web programs that create real- time data i.e. Twitter. Even now, whatever you tweet (individual tweets or pages) about can be indexed by Google (although, not in real time), but you have to be careful because it can be a force for evil as it is a force for good.
Fortunately, you have no need to fear as you can optimize your Twitter presence (or let someone else do it) to get your important tweets (regarding SEO, SaaS, eCommerce) on Google, and avoid having your leisure tweets appear in searches. All it takes is to follow these ten tips and you'll find yourself mastering the SEO behind your own Twitter fate:
1. Choose a Simple Handle -
To start out, make sure you choose a handle that is related to what you're selling and is simple (it makes it easier to remember). This handle then becomes part of the URL for your Twitter page creating a static address for future indexing. Keeping it short and sweet will make it so much easier to search for in Twitter as well.
2. Select a Good Account Name -
The next step involves optimizing your Twitter account name to better reflect what you offer to people. The name appears in the profile, which is much different than your handle. To best utilize the SEO aspect of this for your eCommerce business, you need to research the various brand names of your product that are the most popular in searches.
3. Make your Bio Noticeable -
The bio on your Twitter page needs to be simplified to focus on the most important phrases related to your brand. You have 160 characters to work with, so make them count. The bio is also indexed on a regular basis so it holds the core relevance to your twitter page.
4. Shout it Out -
Now you have to think of ways to build up your link reputation. One thing you can do is integrate your twitter URL into your website by announcing for your clients to "follow you on twitter" (this works well for so many celebrities). Another method is integrating your twitter URL into your site's footer or header area through an icon or text link. Since both of these appear on every page, you get a decent amount of exposure to your customers.
5. Don't Forget the URL -
Under the account settings make sure to add your website's URL or possibly use it to promote your eCommerce presence on a different social platform such as Facebook or Myspace. This pushes traffic to where ever you want, although be aware that the link does not give any off-site reputation because of a "NoFollow" attribute used to dissuade twitter spammers.
6. Choose your Characters Carefully -
The "lead-in" of each tweet you create is very important for SEO and for your eCommerce business. This lead-in determines what shows up in the tweet's title tag when pops up in the search results on Google. There are about 42 characters that are put into each tweet's title tag, this includes the account name, as well as the following characters of each tweet. Also, don't forget that your full tweet and all it's rich, gooey characters are going to be indexed by major search engines.
7. Integrate Keywords into your Tweets -
Whenever you tweet, start your sentence with a primary keyword phrase so you can keep up a theme with each message. Knowing the lingo of the times or the buzz words floating about the internet will give you content, as long as it is related, for your message. Unfortunately, too much of a good thing can kill the prospect of increased traffic so think carefully about the key-words you choose for your theme. Choose words that best convey your message and also hold lasting relevance.
8. Do not Forget about your Retweetability -
Keep an eye on your tweet's character limits so you can allow for optimal "retweetability." If you want the message you're conveying to stick in people's minds, it's ideal to keep it under 120 characters so your followers can add RT @Yourhandle in front of the tweet. However, the exact number differs for everyone depending on the number of characters needed for someone to include the phrase "RT @yourname" in their re-tweet.
9. Give the Links Some Love -
Place back-links to pull users back to your content. Twitter has proven to be an aid for bloggers in driving traffic to specific places. If you decide to share links, use one of the several URL shortening lines (TinyURL and Bit.ly are tow of the most common). We suggest using the Bit.ly shortener, as it tracks click-throughs for shared links you use on your platform. It can also track links in aggregate. For example, if there are multiple Bit.ly URLs that are created and shared by separate users, and they all lead back to the same URL, the service can track and report all the click-throughs for all of them in aggregate. Bit.ly can also track clicks over time, which is useful if you want to see how many clients are clicking your links the most.
10. Give Them What They Want -
When dishing out various Bit.ly links (don't get too excited) or any other URLs, you have to make sure the redirect link leads to pages which provide a much more magical content experience. Users on twitter are consistently hungry for new information and are used to getting it "right now." The best way to accommodate them is to send them directly to the details they want.

| Dexknows.com returned 30 results when we tried to search for "search engine optimization" in the Denver area. Dexknows.com has always carried a familiar clean feeling. No, I'm not talking about that "clean" feeling, but the clean feel of the site itself. It's very uncluttered and that stands out amongst the immense amount of information sites there are out there.
The search results are much better than the yahoo yellopwages, but not as thorough as the yellowpages.com when searching for a Denver SEO Company. Although second best in our search for SEO in Denver, Dexknows.com still has some perks to it.
One includes the "what" field auto-filling itself based on your input. This cuts down on the amount of time you need to search for something.
Also, Dexknows.com contains no ads. No. Ads. Ever. It's amazing because it adds to the visual clarity of the site. It's never bogged down with rotating ads for weight loss or muscle building.
The google maps posted on the right side is also a nice perk as well as the ability to send the information directly to your phone.

| The search for a Denver SEO Company at Yellowpages.com was a little more enjoyable than the search on Yahoo Yellow Pages. Of course, Yellowpages.com is ripe with features that can make it easier for you to not only find a business, but connect to them.
My total search results were 37 businesses, which overshadows the result I received from Yahoo. Unfortunately, it seems that Yellowpages.com carries the same big issues as Yahoo when it comes to sponsored Denver SEO businesses. The majority of them are not even located in Denver, yet they claim to serve that area.
Yellowpages.com also employs ads that seem to get in the way of the experience and litter the right side of the website.
It seems though, that the site carries a fair share of perks. You can have the information for a specific listing sent to your cellphone or have Yellowpages.com will call the business for you and re-direct the call to your cellphone. You can also review a business and get your opinion on their service heard by everyone. | |
| Yahoo yellow pages is a great resource of finding any business, whether it be something common like a dentist in denver or something confusing like a " Denver SEO Company."
In my experience with yahoo yellow pages, the interface was easy to navigate around. You input your search terms and "wham," you have your results pretty quickly. It has it's fair share of faults, but let's face it, what web program doesn't?
One thing in particular I noticed was that the state and city are not available at the get-go. You have to specify the type of business your searching for beforehand. Personally, I enjoy being able to put all my informatio in once and not having to go through several pages. Fortunately, this transition is made easier because Yahoo saves your location through a cookie.
Another somewhat irritating aspect of yahoo yellow pages is the sponsored business links that show up with the search results. Sometimes the companies listed are not even located in Denver or where ever you're searching for SEO services. There are also ads to contend with, but they are only found near the bottom of the page so they don't get in the way of your attempts to research a Denver SEO company.
While searching we found about 6 results for "search engine optimization" (it doesn't seem to recognize SEO as a search term). The problem here is there are not too many companies who just offer SEO, usually they offer multiple services on top of SEO.
