SEO Frequently Asked Questions

Below are some of the frequent questions we get in regards to our search engine optimization services.

What is Search Engine Optimization?

Search engine optimization also know by its acronym SEO is the process of improving a websites ranking within the search engine result pages (SERPs) for targeted keywords or keyword phrases. The purpose of SEO is that the earlier a website is shown in the search results, or the higher it "ranks" in the search engines, the more visitors or traffic will come to the website.

How much does SEO cost?

It would be great if there was a one size fits all approach to SEO, but it is just not that easy. The price and the time it takes to achieve top search engine rankings will depend on the keywords you wish to target, the number of keywords you will target and how competitive the keywords are that you are targeting.

Compared to many other forms of advertising, search engine optimization is one of the most affordable forms of advertising and can provide a great return on investment.

Search Engine Optimization and Search Engine Marketing are very economical compared to other forms of advertising.  There is no need to spend a fortune in getting your site optimized.  For a relatively small fee, it can dramatically change your business for the better.

Why does SEO require Monthly Maintenance or Ongoing Service?

Search engine optimization is not something that is done one time and your website is put at the top of the search engines. SEO is an ongoing process to get your site to the top and keep it at the top.

Do you only handle SEO clients in the Dallas area?

No. Although we are a Dallas SEO company and the majority of our clients are located in the Dallas / Fort Worth Metroplex we handle SEO clients all across the United States.

How long does it take before Search Engine Optimization shows results?

Only Google, Yahoo and Bing can actually answer this question. The time it takes for your website to rank will depend on the keywords you wish to target, the number of keywords you will target and how competitive the keywords are that you are targeting. For a brand new website that has never been listed in the search engines your site should be spidered and indexed by Google within few weeks after of going live. To get good rankings for an brand new site it can take 1 - 6 months or longer depending on the competitiveness or your keywrods. An existing website that has not been penalized and has no other issues, it can take from 1 week to several months. Again, there are a lot of other factors that we cannot control so the time it takes is on a site by site basis.

Isn't SEO Something We Can Do Ourselves?

Yes. The formula for success with search engines is a simple three step process:

1. Add original content that is focused on a targeted set of keywords; such as Dallas divorce lawyer for example.
   
2. Get links from trusted, related sources, (like the Texas Marriage Counseling Center for example), pointing to your content.
   
3. Give it the Time to be picked up and placed

(Original / Quality Content) + (Trusted / Quality Links) + (Time)

There you go. That is the secret to SEO. As you can see the concept is fairly simple. If you are interested in doing SEO for your own website then view our SEO tools and resources page for some helpful websites and information. However it is a lot of work to make this happen. That is where we come in. Give us a call today.

Can you guarantee a number #1 ranking in the search engines?

No SEO company can guarantee a number #1 position or specific ranking for your website for a given keyword phrase in the organic search engine results. There are simply too many factors beyond anyone's control such as the search engines changing their ranking algorithms, efforts made by competitive website, and new sites being added to the Internet.

How do we know what keyword phrases to target?

One of the most important functions of search engine optimization is the selection and placement of keywords or keyword phrases. Keywords are what describe your site to the search engines. Since search engines review sites primarily by their text content, site rankings are effected by the keywords you choose. Adding keyword captions to pictures and other media like Flash will optimize graphic content. Click here to learn about to selecting keywords phrases to target.

Am I locked into a monthly SEO contract?

No. We do not lock you into a monthly contact and you may cancel at anytime. We have had SEO clients that we achieved top search engine rankings for their websites and they stopped using our services and they still maintain that ranking today. This is many times possible in a market that is not very competitive; however it is recommened that you continue with our services because things on the web are always changing and because of these changes, it's important to stay with a Search Engine Marketing Company that stays abreast of new technologies and ideas so that you keep up with the times.   It's best to make sure your site is always optimized.

Why is search engine optimization important?

SEO is important because search engines can be the best source of traffic for your website. Visitors finding your website through search engines are potential customers that have already expressed an interest in what you have to offer.

Why does SEO Work?

SEO works so well because many websites on the internet do not actively practice effective SEO.

Why is it that some people do not implement SEO strategies?

SEO has been around for a long time, but it is just recently starting to be a mainstream form of marketing. Companies that do not optimize their websites do not realize that simply having a site on the Internet isn't enough.  Like any other business, you have to do everything in your power to get noticed and with so much competition on the web, it is imperative that SEO is incorporated.   Most of the people that ignore SEO are rarely found on the Internet and do not understand its importance.

What if I can't write well and I need good copy for my website?

If you are not able to get your message across effectively, we can provide content writing services and our content writers know how to create excellent optimized copy. 

How can I determine if my web page is optimized?

If you are not sure if your website titles, meta-tags, search phrases and key words are optimally implemented, we at Red Spot design can run a detailed analysis to determine where you stand.  If we find that your site needs improvement, we will update your pages and make sure all the tags are correct.  We will then send you a comparison report so that you can see the difference in ranking before and after we analyzed your site.
