Cayman SEO

In the Cayman Islands, keywords tend to shift during holidays and is a prime example of why you should optimize your website for keyword trends. The shift is also prevalent in most parts of the world and is very important when targeting holiday traffic. Search Engine Marketing (both SEO and PPC) is important in understanding keyword trends and how it affects your bottom line. Very important details: The keywords are from Google's Adword External Keyword Tool. When doing an online campaign is it important to cross reference your keywords using atleast 3 keyword tools. Other tools that are as relevant as Adwords are; Wordtracker and Keyword Discovery. Without further adieu, here are the top 20 keywords for the month of November, 2009 - beside the keywords are monthly average searches of the past 12 months. 1. cayman 2,240,000 2. grand cayman 550,000 3. cayman islands 450,000 4. cayman island 165,000 5. cayman hotels 135,000 6. cayman islands hotels 60,500 7. grand cayman island ...

Published in Whats HOT! A Cayman Free Press Publication, December 2009 The Internet is the biggest market in the world and this Holiday Season, sales are projected to be at over 25 Billion Dollars. Being online allows your business to be open 24/7 and make money for you even while you sleep. Competition, however, is quite steep and you are not guaranteed that customers will find you amidst all the other websites. So how do you instantly increase your online exposure without breaking the bank? The answer: PPC or otherwise known as Pay Per Click. PPC is the advertising business model of Search Engines. Advertisers only pay their host when their ads are clicked-through. The biggest PPC providers are Google.com via Adwords and Yahoo.com as well as Bing.com via Microsoft AdCenter. All of them operate on a bid-based model, which means that advertisers bid on keywords or phrases relevant to their target market. PPC allows you to reach your target market instantly and directl...

The holidays are fast approaching in the Cayman Islands and I know for a fact that most people and business owners cannot wait, more so for this year, 2009 - because of the global recession that has hit many-a-business hard. For many tourism-based businesses, this is the time of the year that is the busiest because of the influx of tourists for the Christmas Holidays. Why then would you possibly need additional traffic to your website? Because 2009 is a 'special' year, now, more than ever is the appropriate time to take action on your website to ensure that it enables your business to take advantage of the 'gifts of the season'. This year, more than any other year before it, your customers are going to be looking for more value in every product or service that they buy. Here are a few reasons why you need to take a second look at your website to ensure that is is working for you in this holiday season: 1. Just because it is the holidays and we expect more tourists ...

I am a very passionate person when it comes to work and sure, most of the time I don't have time to moderate comments on my blog. Not that there is alot of them mind you, but because I know some people are trying to ride on the link popularity of my blog caymanseo.blogspot.com, which has a pagerank of 4/10 - and because I know how difficult breaks can be - I don't mind and sometimes approve them. What I do mind is when a competing company does it. So my blog is decidedly no. 1 for most if not all the keywords relating to SEO and/or Internet Marketing in the Cayman Islands. Of course it is - I have applied alot of what I know about optimization to my blog. So it really makes me so angry that a competing company would even dare post a link back to their blog hoping to ride on my coat-tails. You should have made a comment at the very least and maybe I would have let it pass but to blatantly put a link back... thats just plain LAZY. Its embarrasing really. I would hate ...

In the early days of the Internet – social networking websites such as Geocities (1994) and Tripod (1995) focused on bringing people together to interact and share personal information. Some sites went a little further by having its users link to each other via email – ie. Classmates.com (1995) and sixdegrees.com (1997). But most of these sites simply weren’t profitable and eventually shut down. It wasn’t until the years between 2002 and 2004 that three sites emerged and caused online social networking to become part of mainstream users globally. These three sites were Friendster.com, myspace.com and bebo.com. In 2006 Facebook.com opened to communities outside US Colleges and became the largest growing site in the world. Social networking then flourished and became a component of business internet strategy - various social networking sites have sprung up to cater to every demographic. It is estimated that there are over 200 social networking sites using existing and emerging...

(As published in Whats Hot March Issue) Imagine Google as a recruitment company and imagine your website as a candidate applying for a position – and in this case your website is actually applying for a position – a Search Engine Results Page (SERP) Position. A SERP Position is the way Google and all other Search Engines display search results. The difference of a first page result vs. a second page result is far and wide and businesses on the first page of their industry’s major keywords reap the benefit of 62% more traffic* than a second page position. In this metaphor, the end users are your Customers. It will be up to them to ‘hire’ your service/s or altogether ignore your application. There are many facets to this but that is another article and another issue of What’s HOT altogether. What three simple things can you do to improve your position on Google without heavily relying on your webmaster? This is probably the single most frequent question that my clients ask me and I...

I am a girl and I drive a car. As most women (not all), I am as clueless as the next whenever something goes wrong with it. About a month ago, I visited a friends house and picked her up to go to the beach. As soon as my little car started, my friend looked at me and exclaimed, "What the heck is that?" and I looked at her and was surprised, "What?" She said that my muffler probably needed changing because it sounded like a sports car. (No wonder I felt cool everytime I was driving) I never noticed because... well because I didn't think it was a problem. My car can get me from point A to point B and thats all that really matters. Right? (I guess I am just talking to women here, most guys would probably say, "wrong") Anyhow as soon as I got home, I searched on Google for "pajero muffler shop grand cayman" which returned no relevant results whatsoever. Ok, ok, i thought to myself, what do most regular folks call those shops and then searc...

The Problem I was driving in my car the other day and listening to the news. Coincidentally, I was passing by the Waterfront and seeing three cruise ships on port. On the radio, the news was saying that the badly beaten Global Economy would further dampen the tourism business in the Caribbean as a whole and that some hotels in St. Lucia were closing. It was all very surreal as I almost ran over a tourist when he decided to cross the street when the traffic light turned green. Don’t worry though; nobody was hurt as of writing this article. It was then that I decided to do my part, as an Internet Marketing Professional, in assisting the Cayman Islands Tourism Industry. This article is about the Critical Mission of Internet Marketing against the greatest Economic turmoil of our generation. It will discuss how the Internet can be used as a tool to generate more business and how Search Engines can play a major role in helping your business stay afloat, if not succeed in the coming d...
