Lawn care business tips
Ok Doc, I just finished reading the 70 page report. WOW, I have a brain cramp.

So if I understand (even-a-little) should I include keywords more in the body, title, pics of the articles? Should I change keywords altogether?

This is all new to me so sorry for the ground floor approach.

Again thanks for your efforts !

Yes the keywords need to be included in the body and you can further differentiate them by underlining, bolding or italicizing them.

As for the pics they need to have the correct alt and title tags. You know, when you hover over a pic and the little text box pops up.

You should focus on franklin, pa because there are a lot of cities named franklin that you will compete with on the web. Like I said in the email, Franklin, TN is a competitive area because of the per capita income there. By targeting Franklin, PA you will eventually move up for Franklin also.

I have applied some of the advice to my site already. The easy stuff.lol

I plan to take your report and reread (study) make changes as they become more clear to me. I would love to rerun your report and measure improvments.

Great stuff.

Have you been keeping track of where your site is ranking in search engine results? It would be neat to see over time, how implementing these seo tricks has effected your rankings.

I would like to know the rankings among search engines but not sure how to find it. SEO report gave me an 29.8% rating but I think this represents how likely the site is to do well. (it potential)

The site did get verified by Google yesterday, again not sure what that means but I assume its has to be good.

I noticed last night the site is showing up 2 or 3 times in directories along with the site itself on the first page of Google. I registered for all the free business directories I could find. Someone on the forum here provided a list. In about 2 days the front page has received 30 clicks. This is up from before.

That is fantastic! I am guessing that over time it will only improve as you keep working on that?

Pat,

I hope to have my site ready for you to do a report on in a few days.
Since I'm using Concrete5 CMS to build my site, it's taking me longer than expected because when I run into a problem, I don't have anyone to ask for help. (sine not many people use it)

I spoke to someone from another forum (who builds sites for a living) by phone today and he got me straightened out on a few issues and helped explain how to get some keywords in my page URLs. I still can't get them in the title, but it's a start.

Now it's time to write the copy for my pages and work in some keywords...
