Search Engine Optimisation (SEO)

How SEO can get your website to the top of Google's organic listings

Search engines like Google, Yahoo and Bing rank a website more highly by deciding if it is more relevant to a particular subject than other websites.

They work out the relevance in many ways but the main method is by analysing the wording and code on a web page. This can be determined by the location of the searched phrase on the page, how many times the words appear, the percentage of times compared to other words, etc. With this in mind, it is possible to greatly influence a website's search engine position by placing the correct number of words in the correct place on each web page. The only danger is that over optimising a page can be seen as spam and can get the website penalised or even banned from its index. By choosing MonmouthWeb as your SEO company, you will be benefitting from our 12 years' experience in SEO.

Aesthetically Pleasing Web Design With An Edge

It is important to maintain a good balance between having a professional looking web site and also achieving high search engine positions. This is because 'first impressions count' and if your website looks amateurish then a potential customer could simply click away and go directly to your competition's website.

Many web designers produce impressive looking website designs, but they lack the skills to achieve top search engine positions. It is pointless having a great looking website if no-one can find it.

Please view the MonmouthWeb portfolio which shows the type of inspiring web designs we can create for you and we also show some of the amazing top search engine positions our sites has achieved for clients.

Link Building Campaign

Another important aspect of SEO is having relevant sites pointing to your website. Search engines like Google see each link as a 'vote' for your site. With search engine optimisation being equal between two websites, the site with the most relevant 'votes' will appear higher in Google's results than the other.

MonmouthWeb can run your link building campaign by requesting links from relevant websites on your behalf. We also have access to a list of 2000 directories and can submit your site to these too. (All our submissions are done manually to avoid penalisation.)

We can also research and advise you on how many links are likely to be required to get to the top of Google with your search terms.

For localised search terms, it usually requires around 100 links to get on Google's front page and our prices start from £1 per link. We also recommend running the campaign slowly so that the search engines do not see hundreds of links suddenly pointing to your website as they can consider this as spamming and actually penalise your website's ranking.
