Google First Page Fast
Is finding your business like taking a shot in the dark?
Hello, my name is Andre Hartslief and I’m here to put your site on the Google first page fast.
I use SEO which stands for Search Engine Optimization… and that is all about giving Google what Google wants so they rate your site as worthy of being listed on PAGE ONE of their free search engine results.
Being on the Google first page is about two things.
SEO is about the same two things.
One is your site.
The other is links to your site.
Here's what I do about these two things...
1) I take a look at YOUR WEBSITE to see if it's complying with what Google is looking for. Things like heading tags, the use of keywords, and is there sufficient text on your home page? That's because the Google algorithm processes text better than pictures. There is a bunch of techical stuff I could go into but I'll spare you the details here. If your site needs some fixing, I'll tell you what's wrong and how I can fix it.
2) The main area I work on is BACKLINKS. These are links posted on other sites all over the Internet, pointing to your site, and using your main keywords. Your keywords, of course, are the search terms that your prospective customers will be typing into Google to find your company even if they have never heard of you before.
For example, the main keyword phrase for this page is "Google first page" so you will see I've used that expression in the title and several times in the body text of this short article (that's the "on page SEO" that I mentioned earlier) but very importantly I have used special resources to post lots of relevant links to my site. Many of those links say "Google first page" and the links are clickable.
So when Google follows those hyperlinks (that's the fancy name for a clickable text link), they come to this site.
And when the Google computers arrive here, they see that this page is indeed all about how to get onto the... Google first page!
It all ties together. And that'd be our goal for your site too.
Why Being On The Google First Page Is Important
Research has confirmed what we all know to be true, and that is… when you search for something on the Internet, hardly anybody looks past THE FIRST PAGE of search results. That’s why a Google first page listing is so important. It’s money in the bank.
So if you want your prospective customers to find YOU (instead of your competition), then you absolutely MUST BE on page one.
...And We Do This For You.
And our special offer is this. We will put your business on Google page one for your search terms. That is, you will pay us nothing to see your site on page one of Google for one of your search terms. I you decide to make use of our ongoing SEO strategies, you will be charged. How much?

Your Free Google First Page Listing
If you own a small Local company in South Africa, selling a product or
delivering a service and are experiencing a mysterious decline in "new"
business (about 96%) in spite of your traditional advertising methods,
IE Yellow Pages and Newspaper classifieds etc., let me d-mystify it for
you right here, it's because just like you, all your potential customers
are searching for local products or services on the Internet! They are
using their Smart Phones and PC's and are only finding those businesses
that are listed online or more specifically, only those that are listed
on Google's First Page. If done optimally, using SEO, you can expect to
start seeing a growing boost in "new" off the road customers and clients
from Google search engine ranking.
You can off course handle your own SEO optimization, which leads me to ask, why then have landed on my website?
I could only assume, that you won't be doing your own SEO, and I have several affordable packages to choose from at a monthly rate that were designed to elevate your company's site rank above that of your competitors. To understand and apply SEO techniques effectively, one needs a long coaching term to familiarize oneself, with what works for what niche, and to diversify your back-linking structure accordingly.
Having a Google marketing consultant do your SEO marketing just right for you, is the most effective method and leaves you free to focus your labor efforts on what you do best. Since your very livelihood depends on your site generating desperately needed new business, - you really do not want to create a crucial mistake like building back-links too fast and ending up in the Google sandbox.
Whether your site is known as a second-rate site targeting smaller volume keywords, or a large business in competition with other huge South African or international companies, you will definitely require correct optimization if you want it to prosper. Remember that having Google Adsense doesn't improve your ranking in any way, it is a common misconception, that since you are now in partnership with Google, they will give you precedence, they won't - you certainly will rank just as quickly, or as slowly, as everyone else.
Once you've optimized your site's keywords and meta descriptions to suit your business niche, you're going to need enough relevant and useful content which is needs to be updated each week. Another common misconception, is that the more backlinks you have to your blog, the better. You need to be aware that the quality of backlinks are highly important. Higher PR (page rank) sites linking to yours will certainly provide your site with more "link-juice" than pages with no PR at all.
At the same time, you really do not want to have too many external links until your site can handle it. Since this is your primary site, you would be well advised from keeping clear of so called shortcut techniques referred to as Black hat SEO as these will inevitably get your site penalized by Google.
The fact that you have landed on my page, leads me to assume that you can possibly benefit from my services to promote your local business so without any further ado, as I have stated above, I will list your business on Google First Page for free. Simply email me if you're interested in my offer. I require some listing information which I will discuss via my email to you:

New Google Places Pages
The New Google Places Pages: What You Need to Know
BY:Chris Root, Associate Consultant, eBoost Consulting
Right around the time that Google rolled out their new Google+ social network, all the buzz was around this new site and how it stacked up against Facebook, etc, etc. What most people didn't notice is that at the same time, Google made a massive change to their Google Places pages. The local results saw a major overhaul and as marketers and business owners, we need to adapt.
Up until now, one of the biggest factors in determining rankings in local search were what was known as "citations." These were the local search equivalent of links. Citations were mentions of a local business on other 3rd party websites that Google would pull into Places pages:Read on...
Google Pages Consulting
When we examine the world of SEO it can be quite daunting, yet once you start applying the information, a whole lot becomes clearer. You start seeing the importance of applying relevant keywords and you also start noticing how many top ranking websites have, by using a huge amount of backlinks and misssing relevant longtail keywords found in the main search terms. By utilizing these relevant keywords it is frequently possible to out rank them in a relatively short space of time. This is just the kind of information that SEO consultants in general would find useful. I am certainly not implying that backlinking has become obsolete, I am only offering this strategy which I have found to attract large amounts of visitors to my Google Pages Consulting website.
I've said for a long time, that the most important aspect of SEO is keyword research. In addition, I've shown how simply having relevant keywords in your titles or articles can get you to the top of Google over more "authoritative sites"; all because of keyword relevancy. This is an absolutely critical aspect you simply must understand!
This is so critical to understand, because as you do keyword research, you will see sites that have PageRank or lots of links, but they still might be VERY easy to beat if they are not really relevant to the keyword being searched for.
Keyword relevancy is a huge deal. In fact, the really long tail keywords usually have very few sites if any targeting the search term. What does this mean?
If you can find lots of long tail keywords that other sites are not targeting, you can rank quickly with little or no link building whatsoever.
In reality the keyword research strategy is a lot like small niche sites, instead, each post is optimized for a new keyword. However, instead of targeting just 1 keyword for a small niche site, you can target hundreds or thousands of long tail keywords for your authority site. This is what I have been doing for a long time. When I go to write a post, I decide what I want to write about, then I find related keywords. I find keywords that I may not have thought of on my own, then I adjust the title of my post based on what I found. A pretty simple tactic, but its had a huge impact on my blog.
I get a large volume of traffic from Google every single day for free from people searching for these keywords or related ones. To be exact, my site has received hundreds of visitors from Search Engines (mostly Google) in October so far (1st through 15th). That means, I get visitors from search engines every single day! Not bad. (I get lots of traffic from referrals, return visitors, and more as well).
Oh yeah, and I don't build links to my posts. (These DO come naturally though, so I have plenty of links, but I just don't put any effort into it). Its because my posts are relevant to the keywords they are searching.
This is what you should be doing for your authority sites or blogs. If not, you are leaving free traffic on the table that you could have had by simply tweaking your titles and content just a little.
So, how does this apply directly to your authority sites or blog? Here is the strategy I am applying to my new large niche sites.
Target 1 primary keyword that has search volume around 4k to 20k exact match searches each month (this volume could vary on the competition). Target 1 new long tail keyword for each new article I write on the site. So, the article on the homepage will target my large primary keyword. Then each additional post will be about a related but different keyword that is MUCH easier to rank for than my selected primary keyword.
Lets say I decided to create a site on getting rid of bugs in your house. I input "bugs", "get rid of bugs", "flies", and "insect removal", and hit search. This returns dozens of results, but with my filters of only keywords between 4k and 20k, I'm left with 58 results. The next step is competitor analysis, which I'll cover more in depth in another post (but you can see an old example here). But lets say I pick the keyword, "Do it yourself pest control".
This is my primary keyword. It gets 5,400 exact match searches per month. After doing my research, I would write an in depth article about this topic. Perhaps I would title it, "The 10 Best Practices for Do it Yourself Pest Control". This would be a sticky post on my homepage (meaning it would stay there), and perhaps each of the 10 points in my article will link to additional articles on my site.
Now, I look for secondary keywords. Again, going back to what I said above, this technique works great for my Google Pages Consulting blog. The criteria for secondary keywords is different, I want something that will require very little if any link building to rank. Therefore, I will chose keywords that have a much lower search volume. My secondary keywords will usually have an exact match search volume between 100 and 1000 searches per month.

How To Achieve First Page Google Ranking Easily
GOOGLE RANKING IS THE ONLY SOLUTION!
Ranking first page Google Is Not PPC (Pay per click). It is very easy to see search volumes for popular keywords and PPC marketers tend to gravitate to those popular keywords sending the costs up quickly. Getting a page ranked on the first page in a specific niche featured on Google, takes a little more work, but does not cost much money other than the paid for online time you invest, doing the keyword research and creating the page and website. The common platform used to create these pages that rank first page on Google is a blog. With practice you quickly learn to create a blog page and posts that will rank Google's first page in your niche for the keywords or key-phrases that the audience are using to reach your specific kind of service or products.
Look for high demand low supply phrases to rank on Google's first pages.The key to getting a page ranked on Google's first page for a given phrase is to first start by finding a phrase that is not being targeted by a lot of other sites. By being targeted I mean the site has not optimized its pages to target that particular phrase. You can now do that by using special search engine commands that will tell you what pages are targeting your phrase in their title, URL and anchor text.
Here are My 4 Basic Steps:
1. Start off by brainstorming about what your visitors might be searching for, then use google Keyword Tool (Free to try) to help expand on those keywords.
2. Make a list of those keywords in a spreadsheet and record the monthly search volume for each keyword.
3. Next, find out how many competitor pages are optimized for that key-phrase and record it.
4. Having decided on the phrase write your blog post around it.
Example Of How To Rank on first page Google
So using this above system, I use the following steps which are outlined and start ranking on Google's first pages for several of those keyword phrases on several which I had selected. Rather than going after those popular phrases with thousands of monthly search volumes and tens of thousands of competing web pages, all of whom are clamouring for attention, I picked the phrases with 400 to 1000 monthly search volumes that were easy to rank on. Being on the first page Google for 400 - 1000 times a month can easily bring 80-200 visitors/customers, and that is for just one blog post! Imagine each new blog post you write up incorporates in it's text, one of your selected keywords, each bringing you an extra 80-200 visitors or customers per month!
GET YOUR GMAIL ACCOUNT AND START WITH Google +
As an owner of any business, providing a service or product, you can surely understand the exponential growth your local company will enjoy by being listed on the search engines of which Google is the largest on the planet. Your customers already know this, and its the main reason why almost 95% of all product and service related searches in South Africa, as indeed, the entire world, are being done by cellphones and PC's online. Your opposition down the road, is certainly aware of this incredible opportunity and is making use of it. As you are reading this article, there are no prizes for guessing, where your potential customers who aren't finding your advertisement and business details on the Internet are going!
In terms of PPC advertising it could easily cost you R20 per visitor and you have to pay that over and over again each month. By following my steps above and ranking blog posts to get on first page Google you will have traffic that continues to come in month after month from the work you did just once!
If you still lack the confidence to try doing it yourself and feel the need for assistance to get your business ranked, I can help, since that is what I do best. It then leaves you free to continue doing what you do best, such as: baking, sewing, tiling, roofing, building, plumbing, delivering, designing, planning, landscaping, repairing, pool cleaning, optometry work, refrigeration, caring, driving, electrical contracting and teaching, to name just a few of the satisfied local business owners whom I have assisted.
