Okay, just got back from checking in on my new site submission. One of my articles will not be reviewed for about a week - ARG. The other article should be live in about 3 days or so.
If you go to Google and type in my new site, reversemortgageproscons.com use the www. at the beginning, you will actually see this blog show up in the top of the listings. So, my blog is being visited by the GoogleBot often, if not daily, since I only just went live last night and posted the URL here.
My next site will be reddingsearchengineoptimization.com. Which is the same as Reddingseo.com but I have plans on toying with several domains that represent my business in Redding. For now I have two other sites I need to get online so I guess I need to get to work.
Until Tomorrow,
Chrisi Darrington

New SEO Project
I've been on vacation for the past 6 days and while I was away we had a very rainy day so we stayed in the hotel. What to do... what to do... I built a new website in about 6 hours. It's ready to upload, but before I put it online I want to get a few articles written. I'd love to see this site get listed in less than 6 days.
So... This time I'll be putting in a little more effort than I did with my own ReddingSEO.com site. I'll be writing a few more articles for my Redding Search Engine Optimization site as well. I'm not in a big hurry at this point. As with any business I have a ton of other work to do. In the past few weeks I've been doing some research for a client who's been using PPC (pay per click) to pull traffic to his site. After researching what his PPC manager was doing, I was able to see that he's been paying to have people buy his products.
Sadly, many business owners have too little time for research. In this case, it has cost thousands of dollars before discovering the true value of his PPC campaigns. The main problem was in selecting a PPC manager that has no interest in helping his client profit. The only profits here went into the PPC managers pocket.
As soon as my new site goes live I'll let you know. We'll track the results together.
Until next time,

Good SEO and SEO Scams
Sometimes you just have to say no. I have a potential client wanting me to help them rank well for a very competitive market. After doing my research I realized that it could take a year to accomplish this goal. In fact, there are simply no guarantees in the SEO world. I do not want to make any promises on something that far in advance. Too many variables here.
What I can do for this client is help him see where he is throwing money away. He is paying for someone to do PPC for him and yet this person will not give him any statisitics. He doesn't know what people are clicking on most, he has no idea how his site is converting, nothing. He just feeds this guy money and has to have faith that it's helping his business profits grow.
Sadly, this sort of thing happens quite often. My interest in starting a search engine optimization business came from a friend being scammed from an seo company. He was paying $80.00 a month for 10 keyword phrases. When I did the research I found that 9 of those keyword phrases had less than 10 searches on average a month. One keyword had almost 400 searches from Google.
Selecting keywords that people do not use to locate your business is obviously a waste of time. However, most businesses that hire someone to help them with search engine optimization have no idea what makes a good seo company and what is a bad seo company.

Yahoo Lists Redding SEO
Today is December 11th and Reddingseo.com is now listed in Yahoo and MSN. My site is now listed in all three of the top search engines. Google is giving it the most attention and Google is the top dog of search engines. It is where you want to gain the most attention.
Yahoo - Listed number 4 for "Redding SEO", 34 for "redding search engine optimization"
MSN - Currently listed. Which means they know my site exists.
As time goes on I'll be posting updates on how my site goes up the results ladder. It takes time to build enough respect in the eyes of the search engines to gain a top listing. This time will vary between sites, the keyword phrases that are being targeted and the techniques used to gain visibility.
That's it for today, I'll be back soon,

SEO Google 6 Days
Last night I visited Google and typed in Reddingseo.com to see if I was listed. And yes, there I was, all bright, shiny and linked. The next thing I did was type into the search box, "Redding search engine optimization". This is the main keyword phrase that I want my site to be listed under. And yep, my site is also in the results for that keyword term.
So, on day 6, my site is listed as number 13 in the results. Not bad for a brand new site.
Today, December 10th, just 7 days after placing my new website online, I see my site is listed NUMBER ONE in Google for the search term, Redding SEO! I didn't think to look for it yesterday under that search term, but hey, 7 days is pretty awesome.
I'll keep you posted on the other search engines. Right now I must go.

Google Loves Me - ReddingSEO.com
An additional search term I'm going to target is Redding search engine optimization services. Currently this search term is located at number 17 in Google. Let's see how long it takes for my site to be listed number one for for Redding search engine optimization services as well.
The main reason why these search terms are so valuable is due to the local traffic I will receive. Most business that offer some type of service to their community do not realize the amount of traffic they are missing because their websites are not optimized properly in the search engines.
Although my services are that of which I can provide all over the US, I am starting out here in my home town. And my goal is to encourage you to also consider building your online presence through proper search engine optimization for your business locally.
Best Wishes and Until Next Time,
Chrisi Darrington
