Search Engine Optimization Copy
While
the Meta Title Tag and other Meta Tags are important,
it is the copy or content of your page which is critical
to ensuring search engine results list your page.
When your site is complete with relevant key market
content, the SEO job is a lot simpler and results
easier to attain. Relevant readable content is now
and always will be king.
At OTR we believe content is best written by a professional
copywriter, but we also understand you’re the
expert when it comes to your business. It is you that
must get your thoughts and knowledge down in writing
so the copywriters can then restructure in a manner
that captures the attention of the web reader. Our
writers make certain that your content wins the viewer's
attention and is professionally written to appeal
to their needs. Here are some key aspects of search
engine optimization copy writing:
Valuable Content is King
Create a primary focus for each page which includes
your key market words and defines the value of your
product or services. Place your key market words near
the beginning of your copy and then repeat throughout
the page, in a manner that is readable by the viewer.
If the page is just simply keyword stuffed, then what
is the chance of the prospective client actually reading
your content? The purpose of your page is to convert
readers into buyers… period.
Targeted Key Market Words and Phrases
OTR spends the necessary time researching your key
market words…it is critical to your success.
We understand there is little value in having a number
one ranking for a keyword that will not attract qualified
prospects. We will help you determine “key market
words” used by your target audience and help
capture the attention of prospects looking for your
specific product or service.
Targeted Meta Keyword Tags
The keyword tag contains relevant keywords used by
your target audience for the content on each of your
pages. This tag is read by search engines that support
keywords tags and while it is true that most no longer
read the keyword tags some do, so we make use of it.
The Search Engines that don't support keyword tags
do not penalize your site for making use of the tag
and the keyword Meta tags can prove useful to help
users find your pages in their search engine queries;
so we list about 20 of the best words per page. The
most relevant keywords are always placed at the start
of the tag.
Targeted Meta Title Tags
By far the most critical Meta tag is the Title tag.
It is imperative to have a relevant title tag for
each page; this is always the first HTML tag on the
page in the Header section. The title tag must be
compelling reading and contains the focused key market
words for that page. We like to make the title in
the form of a question as that helps to make the sites
viewers think about what was written.
Targeted Meta Description Tags
The description tag remains important as a number
of SE's use the description tag as the copy that is
read when a prospective client brings up your site
in their search. The SE spider robots often use the
description tag when they index your pages as a summary
for the page. We ensure your description is compelling
to the reader and relevant to their needs. The content
copy will contain several strategic key market words
taken from the page and written into a compelling
sentence. The SE’s that support the description
tags limit copy (150 to 400 characters), so we place
important key market word or phrase copy in the first
150 characters of the description sentence in a readable
format.
