Search Engine Optimization:
An Organic Marketing Approach
by Pamela Wood
The basic concept behind SEO internet marketing isn't hard to understand:The optimization of a website is achieved through the careful use of key words or phrases that are inserted into the Web text in order to make the site more relevant or visible to the major search engines such as Google, Yahoo, and MSN.
While the SEO concept is a relatively simple one, the implementation of this highly effective strategy can become quite complex.
A properly optimized website can achieve a high search engine page ranking that delivers it to the first page of a Google search. When this desirable result is achieved due to the highly relevant, key word rich Web text, we have what is known as an organic search result. Another way to achieve a high search engine page ranking would be through a pay-per-click campaign, though, the organic ranking is far preferable because it’s free.
Is SEO the Right Choice for Your Online Business?
An SEO marketing strategy can cost a little or it can cost a lot. SEO will work wonders for one business while having little impact for another. There are only so many slots available on Google’s page one, which leaves no room for 99.9% of all the pizza outlets in the Twin Cities—personal injury lawyers, shoe stores, pet shops, take your pick of industries in any large city to illustrate the point that a page one ranking isn’t practical or possible for many businesses.
The effectiveness of an SEO campaign will depend primarily on the amount of competition for the keywords that best describe a particular industry in a given geographical area. If your online business is looking towards an SEO marketing strategy, please ask yourself the following:
- Does your business offer a product or service that doesn’t have an overwhelming amount of competition in your area? Or, is there a special way that you might stand out?
- Can your business be described in a number of relevant, though, highly unique ways? Is there a large selection of keywords that individuals might choose from to search for your Web offering?
It all boils down to competition when vying for those top slots awarded by the fickle and finicky search engines.

Wishing you continued success and meaningful work!
