1.Introduction

In previous chapter we learned what SEO is and there are two parts in optimizing web pages: On-page optimization and off-page optimization. That discussion was very brief. In this chapter we will discuss the pre-search engine optimization process. What you need to do before you decide to go for SEO? Then we will discuss the SEO check list.  And few other important things you can consider as a part of SEO process.

2.Who need SEO?

Search engine optimization is need of all the websites. If you have website which  is important part of you business or personal life and you would like people to find it when they search anything related to that website then yes you need SEO one.

But if you have websites which your customer know already and they will type the name of your website straight away in browser and also if you don’t need to market you website because your customers already know you then you don’t need to do SEO work. For example, government websites, they don’t need SEO work done as people will already know where to go when they need stuff related to those websites.

To summarize the need of SEO: if you are selling anything over internet then you need SEO done if you want to perform better and get more business everyday. But if your website is just to provide customer care service or after sales service then you probably don’t need to go for SEO as you can let your customer know about your website and they will find the required information from there.

In short before you start your SEO process you should understand the SEO properly. What it is and how it works and should you do it or not? And then find this check list and check everything regularly and make sure you SEO Company are following everything.

Search engine optimization is today most debated and misunderstood concept. Almost every company you talk to about website need or IT first thing they want talk is SEO or search engine optimization. I want to be on 1^st position in Google. Can you do that?

Do these guys understand what is SEO and how does it works? That is very big question. There are xxxxx amount of people and companies providing search engine optimization services in market. Every one explains SEO in different way. Every company their own SEO plan for their customer. Some of then use 1 method which others say it’s not good.  And they pass this knowledge of SEO to customer and as a result of that every customer talks about SEO in different way.

So exactly what is SEO and how does it work?

SEO is very broad field. SEO stand for search engine optimization. You are optimizing you webpage for search engine so search engine can find useful information you visitors are looking for and display your page in result section as close as 1^st position or on 1^st position. Now on other hand search engine says that they prefer the natural way of website and information presentation. If search engine find out that website has tried to manipulate the information, or tried to manipulate algorithm of search engine, then that website might get penalized for doing this.

When representing information to customers, search engine looks for many factors in websites, such as, real information presented in website, the number of websites linking to this website, the quality of those websites, the area of those websites, internal pages of this website, back information such as title, Meta tags, and proper use of alt tags. And after finding these entire information useful search engine decide whether to display that website in search result or not.

Now after looking at how search engine find the websites which will be relevant to search term, let’s have a look at how to optimize the page for that search term.

Optimizing a page for search engine is very long process, it takes very long time and result is not guaranteed as search engine have final authority to select and display website in search results. But if you optimize page properly and build links in natural way then, result is almost sure and once you start getting result then you can be there for very long time and reap the fruit of your hard work.

On other hand if you try to do something in hurry and SE find out then you might get your website hurt. So if you have very useful information on your website, its getting updated more frequently, you have related websites linking back to you in natural way, and you don’t have bad websites linking to you then you are on right track of getting on 1^st position for certain targeted keywords.

In optimizing websites there are certain ethical issues involved which many companies don’t find useful and don’t follow those ethics and as a result of that they get themselves hurt at the long run and end up in westing time and money.

Many business still do there work locally and afraid of outsourcing their work to experts. They are afraid of many things while considering outsourcing specially data and information security. Teaching some one else their business and also they are putting their client and business reputation in some one else’s hand.

Apart from above mentioned limitations, there are numerous benefits in outsourcing and above mentioned are just a thought limitation and not real limitation. There are companies who work in highly professional manor and treat a outsource work as their own and provide best output.

The resources required for SEO is something company need to do successful SEO work. Search engine optimization is something manual work. You cannot do search engine optimization by software. It has to be done by organically otherwise you will get your website penalized for nothing.

Resources you need to do SEO work are experienced SEO experts, their extensive knowledge of industry work and search engine nature. SEO is art which has to be done in proper manner to get a desired result.

2      Paid link work

In SEO work there is lots of paid work such as paid press release, paid article submission, paid blogs, paid links, paid forums etc. now if you are only running only your work then you will end up paying too much money in all these paid work and will not be able to get enough output. On other hand professional companies pay only once and they can use it for all the clients so they can get this paid work in cheaper.

3      Expenses

4      Maintenance

SEO is regular work. Its not that you do it once and that’s all. You will need to maintain your SEO regularly in order to stay on top. If you hire someone to do SEO work and then once you get top position then you don’t need to do same hard work. You will just do maintenance and for that you probably don’t need to put that much money in. while doing that if you outsource then you save money and time.

5      Expertise

Expert SEO companies are highly professional and they are master of their work. They know what to do and what not to do at any given time. What I mean to say by that is the expertise you get from professional SEO Company is much higher then you can get from the same amount by not outsourcing.

6      Business structure

Professional expert SEO companies will have a set structure for SEO work, they will have all the resources to get you on top of search engine, and they have full setup of business structure get you success in search engine optimization work.
