Getting Google to Love Your Website… Again

MarketingProfs virtual seminar series — online

September 28th, 2006

Webcast by Stephan Spencer and Brian Klais

Times have changed over at the Googleplex. Over the past several years, those brilliant Googlers have made significant changes to the rankings and quality algorithms. They’ve launched dozens of new services, tools and websites. And they have evolved their business model. Their stock price is pays homage to that fact.

Have you been keeping up? Does Google still love your website as much as it did several years ago? Or has it found a new love?

Your site can get back in Google’s favor, once you understand what Google is looking for. Granted, much has changed in SEO, but still many of the tried-and-true SEO tactics still work. In fact, they work quite effectively. Some new tactics have emerged, like tactics for getting visibility in Google News. So have new hazards, due in large part to new, sophisticated types of search engine spam. Google, of course, has adapted their algorithms to compensate. Many sites have become unwitting victims of these Google algorithm shifts (e.g. the “Florida update,” the “Jagger update”, the “Google Sandbox”, etc.).

You will learn:

  • What Google is looking for from a website & what makes Google tick
  • The varying ways of getting visibility in Google (”one box” results, Google News, Froogle, Google Base, Google Blog Search, etc.)
  • How to ensure 100% of your site gets into Google’s index
  • How to design your pages to dominate rankings
  • How to optimize your page copy
  • How to track your results and ROI
  • Where Web 2.0 fits in with the new Google

The 90-minute seminar will include an extended Q&A.

Natural Search Optimization by Proxy: Test Before You Invest

ACCM 06 — Chicago

May 10th, 2006

Seminar by Brian Klais

Optimizing an ecommerce Web site for natural search rankings and sales traditionally meant fighting major political battles and investing hundreds of hours to significantly alter the Web site’s architecture, content, layout, coding and more - without clear ROI or results. In this session, we will outline a friendlier approach known as “proxy optimization” where changes can be made to a proxy of the Web site, and then migrated to the native site once proven in the marketplace. Hear case study results from top 100 retailers. This session will:

  • Show an optimization approach that can better predict the effort required to optimize your site for target keywords
  • Share lessons learned from top retailers in their usage of proxy optimization
  • Explain ethical considerations in configuring an optimization proxy for maximum results
