Hi Guys

My comments.

Looks good overall, not sure I like the changing pics but thats a personal thing.

It's obviously not finished yet, only 3 pics , faqs missing, link not working.

Needs a  more content on some pages.

I would expect quite a lot of SEO for that money, should be top or near top for carpet cleaning edinburgh and carpet cleaners edinburgh.

As for why people don't do sites is I believe they start off cheaply, lots of CC's want them and they quickly become swamped.

CC's expect high rankings, this is easy enough in smallish areas with the right name, will often go straight in at top BUT larger areas with a non search friendly web name, will take a great deal of SEO.

I have always concentrated on getting the highest rankings  and also on keeping things simple, remember our customers are not as interested in CC as we are ;)

Cheers

Doug

Hi guys, thought I would jump in this conversation.

1) For his SEO, his site is only 30 days old.  He was no where near the front page for targeted keywords before I redesigned his site. Here is some stats to look at:

2) Fraser has been getting great results from his website and schedules a couple a week!

3) Yes, a website is NEVER complete! ( I constantly add content to my parents Cleaning & Restoration site: http://www.drynclean.com ) I am helping Fraser constantly add content every month! It is blog based software and Search Engines love to index blogs! He can now add in his own videos, pictures, testimonials, surveys and much more with ease, and I provide video tutorials and 24/7 support to help him out. Our team is also helping him rank high as possible, you guys are stating that he is not ranking well but that is false information, below are a ton of great results with #1 rank and #1 page! His backend statistics is what counts, we have a onsite and offsite statistics that you can check to see your results 24/7. Some of you talk a lot about you know SEO so well, but where is your stats to back it up? I can get your phone ringing off the hook hands down! Ask anyone that has used my services. It dont matter how old your url is, I can get you good results asap.

We have already knocked off Chemdry & Drimasters UK off the chart with our SEO, what about YOU guys!?

http://www.pcsnorthal.com
http://www.drynclean.com
http://www.my58caddy.com

And many more. I see a lot of people state "Wordpress", its easy and anyone can do it. Still have not seen anyone create a high quality cleaning/restoration site out of Wordpress yet, please show me one! Wordpress is used by the NY Times, Sony, Ebay and many others. I can create sites in any format, html/php/wordpress, anyone can create a site, but if your new only a couple years into building sites, then that is like renting a Rug Doctor to clean your carpets. Hire a professional.

Another note: the keyword phrase 'carpet cleaning edinburgh' is searched by over 1,000+ people per month from all 3 search engines. 720 alone just in Google!

So yes, his SEO is rocking it!

SEO is just not all about ONSITE SEO but MAINLY OFFSITE SEO Is the most important thing you can do ever to your site and for your business!


That all includes, link building, social bookmarking, article submissions, directory submissions, ping networks, blog commenting, getting your keyword phrases hyperlinked on higher PR sites, analyzing your competition and much more is involved than you think. If SEO was just so easy like some of these guys are saying, then everyone would be doing it. SEO is a ongoing process, if your competition comes up ranking better than you are, then your gonna have to work even harder to beat them.

At the right price Barbara  ;) The CC is very busy just now, so time is my enemy.

As Tre says its a lot of work to do a good job.
It will be interesting to see if Fraser can knock me of top position which I`v held for about three years.
Competition is great, it keeps you on your toes. I need to do more work on my own site now it looks like I have some real competition.
Rab.
Ps Fraser and I get on really well, it wouldn't be a problem, apart from a bruised ego   ;D

Goof stuff, you will agree Google likes fresh content?

Also having links helps, but must have same key words, like we are a cleaning business and have linked up with friends who are window, oven, carpet cleaners and both exchanged links, BUT the best link as we are having traffic to the site all the time is http://twitter.com   check mine http://twitter.com/applemaid

Applemaicarpetcleaning: yes, Google and other search engines LOVES FRESH CONTENT! That is why I enjoy designing sites with the software we use. Exchanging links sucks, not enough link juice. 1 Way links are better.

Also, on RefreshCarpetcleaning.Co.Uk , everytime he creates a post or edit pages, it notifies Facebook, Twitter, Myspace and 100+ social networks within our exclusive ping networks which gives you more traffic!

Shaun_Ashmore, we have exclusive tools we use for checking results in ALL search engines, but for YOU, you can use Googles free keyword tool, just checked in Google alone 'carpet cleaning sheffield' gets searched by 320+ people per month.

Something to think about, even if your ranked high doesnt mean someone is going to call you. What if your website looks really outdated, 1990ish, think they will call you or think you might be out of business or believe that your company doesnt  care about quality.

ps: its not 'carpet cleaning in edinburgh' its - 'carpet cleaning edinburgh' keyword phrase that gets searched the most.

We have a complete team of graphic artists that work for a few TV stations to create the best looking graphics for a site possible.

Doug, that gets searched LESS than half of what 'carpet CLEANING edinburgh' gets searched for. Carpet Cleaning Edinburgh keyword phrase is much better to target than carpet cleaners edinburgh.

Although you cannot optimize every single keyword phrase instantly, for that keyword phrase 'carpet cleaners edinburgh' he went from page 98,000 to page 3 within 30 days, that is very good results within such a short period of time!  Whoever thinks that is poor results needs to check all the stats correctly :)
 
As time goes on and blogging some more, he will be high ranked for many other keyword phrases along with the many results of #1 he is already at because of our marketing campaign for organic seo.

Its all about internet marketing :)

Hi Guys

Tre are you sure you are not making some of this up , page 98,000 sounds a little unlikely.

Still it's all about results so will be inetersting to see where it is in another month.

Thanks Tre, with the size of the my area and edinburgh which are simular I think the internet needs to get in more homes, people in my area are behind in their ways or still using YP's which I still do okay from.
