* DO NOT Overhaul Your Entire Website for SEO Purposes!
That May Not Be Necessary At All!
One of the best ways to
identify an amateur, inexperienced SEO consultant is reflected in how they
approach an SEO project for a site that already exists.
If his or her first advice
is something like “Well, we’ll need to change the existing content of your
site”, I’d suggest finding someone else. Fast.
For sites like ours that
sell music lessons (we usually have relatively small sites), a complete site
overhaul is most likely the WRONG way to go about this.
Let It Be
Established sites have an
online “history” with the search engines. They may not have the greatest set-up
for SEO purposes, but there is a good chance that they already produce some
viable SEO traffic.
Messing around with pages
that are already indexed and working is a recipe to wipe out your existing
search rankings very quickly.
Also, the challenge of
determining what to change, and how to change it is confusing and presents unnecessary
challenges.
If you already have a decent website, and you just want to enhance your SEO
position, then just leave what you have in place and work around it. Here’s how
to do that.
Focused Landing Pages
At it’s foundation, good
SEO work is based on having well structured, focused landing pages that attract
search traffic and convert it into live leads or clients.
A focused landing page is
one that attacks a specific search term (and some associated terms) that real
people use to find music lessons in your area, such as “piano lessons in
Dallas”.
That’s what people
actually search for. That is what a landing page must focus on. It is not
achieved at random or by chance.
Since it is quite rare
that an existing website has well-built focused landing pages in place, then
that is the place to start.
One Page at a Time
Build your landing pages
one page at a time. Focus first on the terms that matter the most to your
business and work out from that.
One page a week is a
decent goal that would take about a half hour of work per week. At the end of
three months, you’ll have 12 targeted pages in place that you did not have
before, and you did not have to overhaul your existing website!
