1.0       EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

 The convergence of retail and community building online has become known as "social networking".  This online phenomenon is spreading across the globe. Nearly all internet users are being engaged in some aspect of this online activity.  It ranges from social shopping, networking to community building.

  

2.0              SEARCH ENGINE OVERVIEW

 In light of the rapidly growing phenomenon termed social networking, the ultimate goal of search engines is to adopt a risk management program that will enhance the customer experience; to create repeat sales and enthusiastic word-of-mouth referrals. To accomplish this, an effective program has to be driven by the organization's business operating environment.  An organization has to maintain an environment that meets:

 -          Customer's expectations. 

-          Operational business needs

 An organization is challenged with the on-going need to focus on, evaluate and improve each of its functional services.

 

 2.1       Keywork Search Optimization

 Some online loyalty programs operate as a means to simply encourage customers to stick with a particular brand. Other programs encourage customers to throw more business towards a company, by establishing tiers.  They use incentive programs that offer greater rewards for increased levels of spending.

 The leading search engine is positioned on top of the evolving web mosaic.  Their unique positioning allows the search engine to maintain its competitive advantage by:

 -          Monitoring any area of growth

-          Acquiring the first position for any area they want to compete in.

 To maintain their position, the leading search engines adopt a marketing strategy which has the flexibility to reposition them in the marketplace when deemed necessary.  If the organization is uncertain of their competitive positioning, they have on occasion listed their services alongside a couple of other competitors.  Often they have demonstrated they will maintain this positioning until their internal stats show their product is superior.  The leader in the industry has mastered the concept that offering free exposure along with free benchmarking equates to great advantages.

 

3.0       SEARCH ENGINE OPTIMIZATION

 3.1              Keyword Tools

 To optimize search engine keywords (SEO) There are many free or low-cost keyword tools one can use within the social networking environment.  The search engine Google for example uses the AdWords keyword tool as a focus of its innovative business models. Adwords is associated with the pay per click concept.  Adwords is still one of Google's main sources of revenues.

 A percentage of business owners that want to make money online are taking advantage of innovative internet marketing strategies and internet advertising.  Businesses that use Google AdSense ads for instance make money online on the front end, and by writing articles on the back end.

 Google AdSense is positioned to allow advertisers to get both targeted traffic and sales, - but so is everyone else.  However, by writing articles, the Internet marketers who incorporate Google AdSense, can also make more money online, if done properly with this internet marketing strategy.

  

3.2       Keyword Positioning Strategies

 The objective of applying key word search techniques is to meet client needs with minimal effort.  This equates to higher profits, better budgeting and a faster return on investment.  It is accomplished by managing the web site's traffic relative to the investment output.  The impact of the key word searches, is measured by the competitiveness of the data used as well as the popularity of the applied data.  The right competitive mix of keyword search usage allows the search engine to be optimized; to measure the traffic on investment of any keywords. 

 

3.3       Search Engine Optimization

 To optimize the search engine performance, one has to take into account certain factors.  For example, one has to equate a webmaster's degree of intent to compete.  They also have to mitigate any obstacle that may impede the ranking for a targeted keyword

 Other factors to take into account include:

-          data integrity

-          impact of automated searches

-          manipulation of data collected by search engines

-          relativity and consistency

-          seasonal data

-          private keyword sources

 

 4.0       SEO OPTIMIZATION  STRATEGIES

 4.1       Effective Online Search Marketing

Effective search engine marketing is an ongoing qualified measurement and improvement program.  Such a program has to constantly scrutinize the statistical data being collected to optimize the search engine marketing campaign.  Adjustments have to be made regularly for the highest possible return on investment.

 A reliable internet online marketing experience is mandatory to provide services such as:

 -          Building professional, search engine friendly web sites

-          Making the best presentation of your company to potential clients

-          Branding in the global marketplace

-          Structuring paid search marketing campaigns

-          Designing landing pages that convert to leads

-          Creating dynamic web content

-          Providing measurable results

 The goal of keyword researches is to obtain search volume estimates.  This is essential to maximize search engine optimization. An organization wants to make sure their online subscribers are expanding their efforts on the most leveraged keywords. Usually these are the keywords or terms with the most searches.

 

4.2       Maximizing Return in Investment

 To maximize the return on your investment, one has to closely monitor certain keyword search variables. 

 4.2.1        Keyword Matches

 Keyword searches are impacted by:

 -          Total Matches

-          Exact Matches

-          InURL Matches

-          InAnchor Matches

-          InTitle matches

-          inText Matches

 

4.2.2        Page Links

 The strength of a site's inbound links is related to the page ranking applied by the search engine. To determine the strength of the inbound links in relation to its derived page ranking, one has to understand the driving force and resulting impact of the search engine's page ranking? The page rank of the URL is in essence a function of all back links pointing to it. These back links come from inside and outside the domain.

 Furthermore, pages are ranked based on a series of variables:

 -          Ranking Page Links

-          Ranking Page PageRank

-          Ranking Page In Title

-          Ranking Page inText, etc.

 Another goal of keyword searches is to ensure your domain is properly ranked.  Variations on the key phrases one has selected within their domain can have a significant impact of your search engines' optimization. Sometimes the first phrase that comes to mind isn't the first one to come to the searcher's mind.  For instance, if you're selling a technical product or one that involves technical jargon, a person may not relate to the terminology used within your domain.

 

4.2.3    Domain Ranking

 Domains are ranked as follows:

 -          Ranking Domain Links

-          Ranking Domain PageRank

-          Ranking Domain Age

 Following the above noted matrix guidelines will allow the search engine to be optimized for your Internet marketing campaign.  You should start to measure the increasing return on your on-line marketing campaign's investment.

 Keep close tabs on key PPC (pay-per-click) metrics such as CTR (click-through-rate) and conversion rates by keyword, as well as quality score. Tweak your campaign by dialing down losers and boosting winners. The goal here isn't only to gather data, but ideally to get conversions as well!
