and increase profitability online, whether it be
marketing, sales or simply gaining a stronger
online presence, understanding the evolving
nature of cyberspace and the nuances of search
engines - namely Google - is desperately important to
its overall health moving forward.
Since Google burst onto our desktops as a primary
search engine in 1997, it has taken cyberspace by
the scruff of the neck and taken stewardship of how
consumers search for products and services online.
But Google is not just a wickedly efficient search
engine - it has evolved numerous
tools in the past decade, which
if operated and utilised
correctly, can make a positive
difference for businesses of
any size or format.

money and time on every Google tool, every company
should be looking to rank as high as possible – and that

comes into play.

Let us put this into perspective. In North America,
Google accounts for roughly 65 percent of the US
search market. In the UK, those numbers are increased
further to about 90 percent, and according
to Hitwise, Google controls 36.55 percent of the traffic

success, because, quite frankly, if your business is not
located within the top five rankings on the front page
of a Google search, you may as well be on page 1,087.
Even when your business ranks on the front page of
a Google search, the work is not always done.
Seobook.com highlights an example of a Bingo
Card Creator who ranked fifth and enjoyed 6,000
unique visitors per month, yet according to leaked
AOL search data, ranking number one on Google is
worth 8.5 times more than number five. So in this

case, 6,000 unique visitors becomes 50,000.
If the business plans to sell products or services,
the upsurge in traffic will obviously mean potential
customers casting their eye over what that company
has to sell, and if a business site has the lure of adverts
on a pay-per-click (PCP) basis, then more traffic means
more clicks, thus more cash.

So first things first - make your website keyword rich.
This simply means words and phrases that potential
visitors are likely to be searching for.

10. Marketing 2.0 tips and trick
To Google, keywords are the clues that are hidden
on a website, which informs the search engine what
that site is about. With keyword-rich body text, picture
headings, titles and standfirsts, the website can be
ranked highly according to its keyword density.
“Think about the words users would type to find
your pages and make sure that your site actually
includes those words within it,” says
Google’s website.
Google has a number of tools that
can point you in the direction of what
keywords are searched for and also
what words and phrases drive traffic
to your site.
Google AdWords is a great tool for this
purpose; its primary function is highlighting
what phrases are being searched for and how much
value they have.
A great addition to AdWords is Wonderwheel, which
aims to ‘simplify and arrange search results’ of input

keyword searches, and Traffic Estimator, which lets the
user search a word or phrase and provides information
such as global and local monthly searches and the
estimated average CPC.
Using links on your website is another important
contributing factor to a good ranking. Google uses
PageRank, an algorithm that accesses not only your
website, but the websites that have URLs linked
within yours. The better the links – and the
better the websites linked to yours – the better
ranked your site will be.
Understanding the algorithms of
Google is incredibly important for any
business looking to operate digitally.
