The Melbourne SEO Services Story – Part Two is a post from: #1 Melbourne SEO Services Company

Get traffic flying to your web site!

In the first part of our story, you learnt how there is no “get rich quick” fix to Internet marketing and that a lot of background work had gone into the early days before Melbourne SEO Services even existed, with only some limited success.

In this post I’ll share with you my big insight! Online business success really can be boiled down to one thing… traffic. If you get traffic flying to your web site then your business starts flying, because sales has always been about numbers.

Time To Wake Up And Smell The Traffic!

You may remember from Part One that I’d come to something of a cross-roads where I knew we had a great product in the “MetaStock” guide for trading, but we weren’t getting it out there; and neither were we getting success from all the other related and unrelated products we offered from around 500 largely dormant web sites! Something had to give…

It was around this time I decided to take stock of the situation because I had spent huge amounts of time, money and effort on getting to that point – how come I wasn’t seeing much in return?

It was then it hit me! Boom! Traffic was the common element between all of the small successes I’d had. If a site had traffic, it ended up being a winner. It was quite a wake-up call.

Immediately I started to laser-focus my efforts on driving traffic to my web sites. I wanted a system that could be used on any site and was able to test and perfect it on some of my niche sites. I had a LOT of them!

This was the early beginnings of my SEO method.

Next I tried it out on our stock market product websites, concentrating our efforts on some specific keywords and optimizing our site for those. Our business went through the roof!

5 years to an overnight success

It seemed like an overnight success to anyone who couldn’t see all the work and testing that went into it. And, as you could imagine, the stock market niche is a highly competitive area, so people were amazed to see our rankings and they wanted to know how we did it.

I started helping people with their sites and they achieved equally great results, even my dentist’s site!

Pretty soon this started to mean our own business began to suffer because we were neglecting it. We had to make the choice – what was our focus going to be?

That’s when we decided to become a fully-fledged SEO company, as that was clearly what we were best at and there was a huge market ready for it.

Melbourne SEO Services really did develop into an overnight success then, because we’d done all the necessary dry-runs and knew exactly how to get the business ranking well immediately for all our keywords.

Saturation Point

We started helping our clients to dominate search engine results the same way that our own web site was doing that. The only “problem” was that we had so much business we couldn’t handle it and had to put clients on a waiting list!

Pretty soon it became obvious that we were never going to service all these clients so we started referring them to other businesses.

We also decided at this point that we needed to document the procedures in our business. That allowed us to take our methods out there en masse and to spend our time more on designing workshops and videos to show other people how to create successful online businesses through various components of online marketing and SEO like video marketing and outsourcing.

We were able to attract some big names and the feedback we received was tremendous, so we realised we were working in the right space finally, allowing us to use our energy, creativity and knowledge to set other people and even other SEO companies up, with online business models that worked.

7 Traits of Your Best SEO Company is a post from: #1 Melbourne SEO Services Company

Every client is looking for the best SEO company, and so many SEO companies are trying to be the best. But what does it take to be the best?

Here’s 7 Characteristics of a Good SEO Company…

Analytical - SEO is a strategic business that requires a highly analytical mind. If your SEO company fails at the first hurdle and does not realise the strategy of your business and the right keywords to go after then the campaign is likely to not live up to expectations.

Responsive – Yes, SEO companies are very busy. But that is no excuse to be unresponsive to their clients. The best SEO companies will be as hands on or hands off as the client wishes.

Flexibility – The best SEO companies understand that each SEO campaign is unique. And in the same way, every SEO client is unique. With that in mind it comes as no surprise that an SEO company needs to be flexible with their different strategies to pursue.

Transparent – Smoke and mirrors play no part in a successful SEO campaign. The best SEO companies will share as much or as little of their SEO strategies with their clients. Here at Melbourne SEO Services we are very happy to share our transparent four stage strategy.

Consistency – The nature of the SEO industry means that SEO consultants and SEO experts can be extremely busy. Only dealing with one person – your seo campaign manager is there for you every step of the way.

Open minded - willing to listen to new techniques or challenges to current assumptions.

Deliver Results – Ultimately the stature of the best SEO companies comes down to whether they deliver. In every form of life, if clients pay good money they expect realistic results. In general the best SEO companies will…

Increase visibility

Improve brand awareness

Increase your sales

Give you the competitive edge

Win you new customers

Create higher ROI, higher conversions and higher sales

Deliver long term results and long term revenue

Foster a long term relationship with their clients
