FAQs

Q. What is SEO? 
A. SEO stands for search engine optimization.  It is the process of ensuring that search engines "like" your website so much so that it returns search results that are advantageous for your company's bottom line.  The objective of SEO is to increase your company's revenue by ensuring visibility across a broad range of keywords and keyword permutations.

Q. What is PPC?
A. PPC stands for Pay Per Click. It falls under marketing your website in the Search Engine's sponsored results for specific keywords. In Google, the PPC campaigns are hosted under Adwords - their revenue tool.  In Bing, PPC campaigns are hosted under Microsoft Ad Center - their revenue stream.  PPC enables a user to purchase specific keywords on a per click basis.  Both Adwords and the MS Ad Center allow users to choose their spend and daily budget and will only pay out whenever a user clicks-through or in some cases, whenever an impression is made.

Q. What should I prioritize, SEO or PPC?

If you had a limited budget, it would work well for your website to be Optimized properly than for it to be on Sponsored results.  PPC is great for running instant promos but has no real long term effects for your website.  SEO has long term effects on your ranking even after you have completed an SEO campaign.  If your budget is not as limited, SEO and PPC in combination should serve you well.

Cayman SEO: Update on Changing to neutral Top Level Domains (TLD)

Just a very quick update on TLD's that address the geo targeting tool that Google released, or is it unleashed.  One of our internal website www.cayman4rent.ky already had a page rank of 3 and was very visible for online searches for most rental keywords in the Cayman Islands and it its domain age was not even 1 year old.  When google inserted the fixed geo-targeting location on Web Master Tools it was a wake up call of sorts. I quickly read up on what this could possible mean to the .ky and realized very quickly that Google was going to remove the .ky from its US data centres.  I wrote a blog regarding TLDs back in February and you can read it here .  On that blog I showed the fact that www.cayman4rent.ky was showing up for major keywords such as "grand cayman rentals" in the Cayman Islands but it was not showing up for the same keyword in the United States.  I was crushed really because it mean that I would have to give it a neutral TLD such as a .com for it...

Welcome the "King of Facebook"

Nick Pitman Joins Us For some time now, I have felt that it wasn't enough to just build websites.  I knew so much more had to be done in order to fill the large online void that everyone seems to be feeling with the advent of Social Media. My problem was/is that human cloning wasn't a viable option.  I just didn't have the time to go into Social Media myself and bridge that gap.  If I did that, I don't think I would be able to provide the same value to my clients in SEO and Web Design as I would be spreading myself too thinly. When Google and Bing both integrated social signals into the Search Algorithm,  I knew I could no longer wait.  It was no longer a 'perceived' void but one that was very real.  Social Media was here to stay and traditional marketing would be the next dinosaur.
