SEO Search Engine Optimisation

 

2KO has a specialist Search Engine Optimisation (SEO) team, called First Place, which studies trends and applies carefully learned skills to making a web site more readable and more "rankable".

Many web sites are extremely well designed and put together and have loads of excellent content. But like anything else in business, even the best must market themselves. The job of the SEO team is generating website traffic. There are numerous techniques that we use to increase a site's ranking for various Internet Search Engines and directories, in order to increase traffic to that site and thereby increase enquiries and ultimately business.   

 

Every day on Google alone, there are 200 million searches. There is a simple rule that most web users live by. When you do a search, you tend to try the sites that come up first. If your site is not on the first page, it is probably going to languish in the realm of almost there forever. The reason the sites that come up on the top page do come up there at all, is because of a good reason. The site has been carefully optimised or it simply contains the most relevant information pertinent to the search term typed in. Promoting your business on global search engines and service directories will give you a share of the many hundreds of thousands of product enquiries that are made daily on the Internet.   

Site owners will spend vast amounts of money creating good sites, even with good content and then not consider the follow up and even more important process of search engine positioning. In order to get your site seen, it must be one step ahead of the rest and that does not come automatically as much as you would wish. If you would like to test your site for this it is quite simple. Go to Google or Yahoo or any other top search engine and type in a phrase or word that you think your customers will type in to when looking for a service like the one you offer. Does your web site appear on the top page or in the top few pages? If not, it needs some work.   

 

Whilst there are many techniques that come to bear, there is no guarantee that you will come up in number 1 position in Google or any other search engine. But there are things which our team can do to enhance your sites chances and in many cases we will get you on the first page.

 

Web Site Design  

2KO can create an identity for you on the web. If you are planning to start a business or even planning to get your existing business into cyberspace, then let’s talk. We understand what a large task it can be.  

Have a look at the sites we have done such as www.i2ko.com or www.2kotours.com or www.africadiver.com and you will see that there is a range of services that we can offer.  

 

Basic Web Site  

Some web site can be as little as between 1 and 5 pages. That does not mean the web site cannot generate loads of business. If the site is well designed and professional people will stay and browse. In actual fact web users are generally impatient and the trend is towards less information on a page.  

If you would like a professionally designed site (with web optimisation in mind from the start) then contact us and we will give you a quote. You can expect to pay around ZAR1500 to ZAR4500 for a small and basic web site. This includes your own contact form.
