SEO Manchester – Google Launches Google Instant

By admin | Published: September 10, 2010

With constant competition from Microsoft’s Bing and other Search Engine competitors Google is under pressure to innovate in order to keep itself in the lead. The latest innovation from Google comes in the form of ‘Google Instant’ – real time steaming of search results as you type.

Google still shows the same results as it did before, the only difference being that they appear in real time as you search.

Our view at SEO Manchester

At Anderson SEO Manchester, we believe it’s too early to say exactly what impact this will have on SEO Manchester and PPC (Pay-Per-Click). However, we believe the impact will be minimal, despite the hype surrounding the launch. Each time Google announces a new development the Internet is awash with reports that each development will be a game changer and SEO will change forever. However, in reality the hype surrounding new developments is often just that. After many so-called ‘game changers’ in search marketing we have yet to see somthing which really affects the fundamentals of SEO. SEO Tactics change but long-tested strategies which worked for SEO Manchester 10 years ago still work just as well today.

Google Instant will save you time

A Google spokesperson told Anderson Mann SEO Manchester that a key reason for Google  introducing Google Instant is to save searchers’ time. We have a sneaky suspicion that Google hopes it will increase PPC (Pay-Per-Click) revenue as it seems to push the PPC (Pay-Per-Click) sponsored results down the page as you type your search query, which will very likely increase the CTR (Click-Through-Rate) of sponsored results even if only slightly.

Google Instant is live in Manchester

If you want to try Google Instant out for yourself you’ll need to be logged in to your Google account for it to work. For more information visit Google’s Google Instant page.

SEO Manchester – What is SEO-Friendly Web design?

By admin | Published: September 1, 2010

SEO-friendly web design is a very important to the SEO success of a website.

The good news is that more and more Manchester web desingers are taking SEO in to account when coding websites. However, at Anderson Mann SEO Manchester we still see a lot of websites which have been built with little regard for SEO. Websites which are 3 years or older tend to be the least SEO-friendly with a gradual improvment in the adhearnce of SEO best practice over the past 3 years.

SEO Manchester
A definition of SEO friendly

I could write a very long article on this topic but for now let’s just look at some of the basic (and most critical factors) which make a website SEO friendly.

As we’ve establised in the previous SEO Manchester articles on content creation Google is interested in the text content of a website rather than images and videos. So the most basic requirement of an SEO-friendly website is that the text is real text.

SEO Manchester
Flash websites – text is an image


At Anderson Mann SEO Manchester we see websites which are under-performing in the search engines and when we examile the website we see that the text is an image. This is often the case with Flash websites. In most cases if the text is an image Google is not aware of that text because it cannont read it and therefore Google doesn’t even know what the website is about. These days it is possible to optimise flash website. However, we always recommend coding websites in HTML in order to give your Manchester website the best chance of sucess with your SEO Manchester campaign.

To be continued…

I’m out of time for today but I’ll be adding more to this article over the next few days.

SEO Manchester – How to write SEO-Friendly Content

By admin | Published: August 20, 2010

In our last blog post we talked about the importance of high quality content for a successful Manchester SEO campaign.

In many cases Anderson Mann SEO Manchester write the content for clients. However in some cases our clients choose to write the content themselves or at least contribute a proportion of the content themselves.

In this article we’re going to cover the basics of writing SEO-friendly content.

SEO Manchester
Tips for writing SEO-friendly content


First off let’s define content. Content is the text, images and videos on your website. For SEO Manchester we’re primarily concerned with the text content.

Content should be:

1. Unique – you can’t just go and copy your content off another website. Google is looking for unique content otherwise it won’t bother indexing your website / pages and you may even receive a duplicate content penalty. You can buy software which is suppose to take existing content and rearrange it to make it unique. This is not a recommended strategy and Google’s become very sophisticated and at spotting non-unique content and it could also have a negative impact on users who visit the site.

2. Content should include your target keywords. However you should not attempt to ‘stuff’ them in as this may lead to penalties. Just use your keywords e.g . ‘Seo manchester’ naturally in your copy.

SEO Manchester
Keeping content fresh

Content should be added to your site regularly. I.e. If you were targeting the search term ‘SEO Manchester’ you might add an SEO Manchester blog to your site and add articles and new relating to SEO and Manchester as well as other related topics such as Web design.

Sometimes it can be hard to think of what to write so here’s a few ideas.

  • Industry news
  • Local news
  • Stuff news
  • Customer news
  • New products or services
  • Case studies
  • Special offers
  • How to guides

You should try to add at least one new piece of content to your site a week.

When a user performs a search in Google for ‘seo manchester’ for example Google wants to show the user the best resource (website / web page) on that topic. The best resource on a topic will be an information rich site. It would be difficult for a site with only a very small amount of text content to be a great resource on a particular topic.

SEO Manchester

SEO Manchester Web Analytics – A brief Introduction

By admin | Published: August 11, 2010

Website analytics is an important aspect of SEO as it allows you to see where your traffic is coming from i.e. SEO or PPC or Referral etc. and also what keywords your visitors typed in to find your website. In addition to that analytics can also show you which keyword convert best. e.g. you may find that people who find your website by searching for ‘Solicitors Macclesfield’ convert better than those who find your website by search for ‘Solicitors Manchester’.

Anderson Mann SEO Manchester use two key types of website analytics software:

SEO Manchester
Google Analytics

Google Analytics is an enterprise class analytics package. You just need to install a few lines of code into your website and it starts working straight away. Anderson Mann SEO Manchester install Google Analytics on all client’s site as standard.

You can do a massive amount with Google Analytics. However, often the basic information can be the most useful. Below are a number of useful insights you can gain from Google Analytics

1. Google analytics shows a breakdown of your traffic sources which shows the percentage /quantity of traffic that comes from each of the following sources:

  • Organic / Natural Results (SEO)
  • Paid results (PPC)
  • Direct (when visitors type your URL directly into the search bar)
  • Referrals (links from other websites)

2. Bounce rate – the Bounce rate tells you the % of your visitors who don’t go further than the home page and ‘bounce off’. In some cases a high bounce rate might not be a problem and simple suggest that the visitors have found the information they were looking for on the first page of your site they visited. However, in most cases it could mean one of the following:

  • The website design is putting people off exploring the site further
  • The website is attracting visitors (through SEO or PPC) who are not relevant e.g. if you site is rankling for keywords which are not related to the content of your site.
  • The sites usability is poor and visitors can;t work out how to browse the site or find what they are looking for.

3. Benchmarking – benchmarking allows you to compare your website with other websites in your industry against various metrics. For example, you might wonder whether your bounce rate of 25% for your Manchester website on solar panels for your home is good or not. With Google Analytics’ benchmarking feature you can compare that statistic with other websites in the construction industry.

Grockdotcom has a great article listing more useful features of Google Analytics.

SEO Manchester
Clicktale

Click take is an advanced analytics package which allows you to watch visitors to your website as though you were stood behind them as they browsed your web site. You can see where they moved their mouse, where they clocked, how long they spend on a page, which order they visit pages. Clicktale is great for solving the mystery of what visitors do you your website and for improving usability and conversions.

We’ll be posting more on Clicktale soon as we gain more experience using it.

If you require web design or SEO in Manchester then contact Anderson Mann SEO Manchester using the form on your right to discuss your project further.

Web design Macclesfield for Anderson Mann

By admin | Published: July 29, 2010

What do web design Macclesfield companies and painter decorators have in common? Well let me explain..

I’ve visited the homes of painter decorators a couple of times and on both occasions I was surprised to see peeling wall paper and unpainted walls. They both told me a similar story – that after spending all day perfecting other peoples walls they often didn’t have the time to paint and decorate their own houses, or when they did have time, they didn’t feel like spending their evening or holiday doing what they’d already been doing all day. I thought this was understandable but a shame.

With our web site we’ve had a similar problem, we’ve been so busy designing and developing our client’s and partner’s websites in Macclesfield and Manchester and marketing them with SEO and PPC that we’ve somewhat neglected our own website. This is a shame because working on our own our own web site is a great testing ground for our web design Macclesfield services.

We’ve now committed to working just as hard on our own website as our client’s sites and we’ve already begun giving the website a new look and feel. We’re planning to add web design Macclesfield case studies soon as well as SEO case studies and Internet Marketing guidance.

We’ve got some very interesting web designer / web design Macclesfield case studies to share including e-commerce websites selling products through the Internet, password protected website which are only accessibly by the client’s customers who each have a user name and password for the web site, web site which incorporating software and tools and lead generation websites for service companies and many more.

If there are any other web design companies reading this or perhaps you’re a painter decorator – then comment below and let us know whether you’ve suffered from aforementioned problem yourself.
