Today people are needing to really get it into gear and get their websites noticed in search engines like Google. I am amazed at how many businesses still do not even have a website.
Technology just does not wait for people to take their time at these things. In fact, today not only should you have a website, you should have a mobile friendly site. In addition you should have text marketing services to keep your clients up to date with the latest information you have to offer. Or, use text messaging to offer your clients deals.
You can get text marketing services for incredibly reasonable prices. Visit Optincoupon.com
In addition to text marketing Optincoupon.com can set you up with a simple website as well as get your site notice in Google.
Oh, and about the Panda. Well, the Panda is a new algorythm that Google created to rid the Internet of garbage websites and spammy SEO tactics. That is why you really need to connect with someone who understands the Internet, Google and how SEO can help your business.
I've been working in the SEO field for about 8 years now and I don't just give my clients a line of bull. I take the time to help people understand what they need and what they do NOT need in SEO.
If you have not set up your business to keep pace with the recent advances in technology, it's time to do so today. Visit Reddingseo.com for my Redding SEO service details, or visit Optincoupon.com for text marketing services.
It's time to get busy and get online!

How to Build PageRank in Google
Building a high PR in Google is not hard. It does require patience. You can read more about this subject on my site, ReddingSEO.com. While having a nice PR is Google is a nice thing, it is nothing to obsess about. The reason why you should become overly concerned is because if you manage to pick keywords and search terms that are not extremely competitive, you can rank well, meaning you can get your site listed on the first page search results for many keyword search terms.
In order to build your PR up in Google, you'll need time, good back links, quality content, and a site that others are visiting regularly helps.
What you do not want to do is consider black hat or illegal methods and techniques to get your site ranking high. These methods can get your site banned from Google, which means it will be de-listed, no traffic ever coming from Google searches and that means hardly any traffic at all.
As time goes by Google continues to look for these "cheating" ways of ranking well. New ones come out all the time, but Google is always updating their algorithms so keeping ahead is not going to be easy.
One way to help you with all the chores of maintaining your website is to pay someone to help out. That's where people like me who specialise in search engine optimization come in.

New SEO Creation
Today more than ever more people are seeking to make a living online. I'm one of those people. It's hard for me to make the time to work on my online projects, but every week I try to get as much done as possible.
If you're wanting to build your business online it is important to understand that you must set up goals. You will need to set up short term as well as long term goals. Everyday I actually try to do something positive toward my online business. It is not always possible to get a lot done, but even writing just a few paragraphs and updating this blog is helping me with my SEO online.
How? Well, this is my launching site. This is the place where I have established enough activity, via a blog, to get my other websites attention. In the beginning it took a week for me to have my first website listed in Google. Once this blog became active it set in motion something very important.
What? Google and other search engines like Yahoo love blogs. Blogs are the most updated and active sites online so the search engines want to come and check up on them as often as once or twice a day. It depends on how often you are updating your blogs. The more you update your blog the more activity it creates and the end result is a lot of "slurping" from Google and other search engines.
So, the goal here for me is to update this blog as often as I can. Which should be at least 2 or 3 times a week. Lately it's been harder to do that due to a couple of my workmates becoming disabled and having to cover work for them.
I'll be back soon, I have almost finished creating my new site. Once I have it finished, I'll announce it in this blog and enter the Google map into the BIG G. The last site I announced was listed in less than 2 days. I'll try and keep a closer watch this time to see how fast my next one is listed.
Until then...
Happy Blogging,

Redding SEO Google PR
Anyone that has a good understanding of SEO will tell you that Google is the most sought after search engine for obtaining good listings. If you're site wants traffic from targeted customers, Google sets the standards for what you as a webmaster, web designer or business site owner, want to follow.
With that being said some people think that PR is not as powerful as it used to be. Well, that is true. However, it's better than it used to be because as Google makes changes to how their search engine spiders and robots analyze your site, it becomes a better search experience for the users.
So, what about PR? Well, Page Rank is a small but still important part of SEO. I don't have time to go through a list of details today, but if your site has PR, it means other people are thinking well of it. If your site is new, you want to make sure it is gaining PR over time.
Reddingseo.com now has a PR of 1. It is a small but important start. Over time this PR will grow to a higher number. My goal is a 4. Obtaining a higher PR is possible, but it requires more time and effort. Let's see how things go and just how long it will take to get that PR4.
Until next time,

Blogs, SEO and Google
Getting listed in Google fast was very simple and super easy. In fact all you have to do is read this blog from the beginning and you can see the very simple steps that I took to get my last site, ezpondideas.com listed in google in less than a day. It was so fast in fact that it could have been listed in hours of submitting my xml site map to Google but I did not do an hourly check to see when it was listed so all I can say is that it was in less than 17 hours. Perhaps with my next site I will make an effort to get an hourly check done.
Okay, so bla bla bla... you're thinking, Chrisi, just spill it. Tell us how to get listed in less than 24 hours.
Well, I don't wanna just spill it, there's more for you to learn. Ha! Let me just say that if you can get your site listed in less than a month you're doing better than most. Although many sites can remain unknown for months due to a lack of understanding how the search engines find them.
So, to get listed within a week, here's a reminder of how to get it done...
EzineArticles.com is a wonderful article directory. And if you can get them to post your article on their front page, you're sure to get your link that you place in your authors box noticed. This is how I was able to get my www.reddingseo.com site listed in 6 days. At this time I didn't have this blog created so that is the route I took to get noticed quickly.
Right now my site has a page 1 listing for the search term, Redding SEO. I'm not working too hard on getting it listed on page 1 for Redding search engine optimization at this point, but over time it will happen naturally as my site has quality content and I'm slowly adding backlinks to this site.
Now then... if you are not up to writing an article yourself, hire someone from elance.com or scriptlance.com to write one for you. Don't hire someone "cheap". You want a quality article if you're submitting to ezinearticles.com. I've established myself as an expert author so every article I write gets posted on the main page. It seems easy to get the expert status, but in reality I really don't know how easy it is. I write quality content so since I never write crap, I can't say if you write a junky article that you won't be considered an expert, but I can say that if you write a quality article you "should" obtain the expert status.
Okay, so either write the article yourself, or pay to have it written for you. Ghost writers are a easy to get online from the outsourcing sites. A quality article will cost you about $12.00 give or take a few bucks.
Ezpondideas.com was even easier for me to get noticed by Google than Reddingseo.com. Why? Well, I'll tell you that I did not have to write an article and submit it to ezinearticles.com. Nope, that was not necessary. And in fact I have yet to do so. I didn't submit any articles to anywhere until "after" Google listed it.
<<>>
So, how did I do it?
Really? Hm...
I will be back again later and tell you... maybe. ;)
Until then,

Lightning Fast Google Slurp
Okay, so, I just got around to checking to see if my new site ezpondideas.com gained any nibbles from Google and low and behold yep, Google has listed it. In fact the site link in Google has the following information:
ezpondideas.com/ - 16 hours ago
That is VERY fast. The reason I can now get any site listed so fast is due to the following:
1. The sites are constructed using a clear model that Googles spider bots can slurp.
2. I create an xml map, submit and get it verified by Google.
3. I announce it in my blog here. This blog is very active and Google sends it's little spider bot over everyday, probably several times a day to check it out.
Those three things are the foundation of SEO, (search engine optimization)
If you are seeking to build your own SEO, take a peek at my main site:
Redding Search Engine Optimization. Email me any questions you might have. I don't have time to answer questions from people who are not seriously interested in my services so please only email if you are thinking of hiring someone to build your SEO.
Until next time,

Listed in Less than 36 hrs
Okay, today is Dec. 30th, but I'm not actually going to post this until Dec 31st. I've already posted several times today and I don't want the search engines to consider it spamming so it's going to have to wait.
So, I now know where my new site is "listed" in Google's results. Waaaaaaaaay into the results on page 13 I think it is, you'll see it. It's about 125 right now. But, this is only the 2cd actual day so let's give Google a few days to sort things out.
I'll keep checking to see how things move along.
Talk to you soon,
Chrisi D.

Redding SEO Moves Up
I just visited Google to see where my site, Redding search engine optimization or Redding SEO is in the search results and it's now at #12. So, let's see, I went live on that site Dec. 5th and I've written and submitted one article to an article directory. I've submitted the same article to a network of blogs as well. And I've been writing fresh content weekly.
The results are showing things are moving along very nicely. And, I am not working hard at it. This is very casual SEO for me. Mostly I'm not working that hard at it because I already have a list of clients waiting to work with me so I've got to do a lot of research and so forth. My main for Redding SEO online is to be listed on the first page at the top of the results. This will come soon enough. Most likely by the end of January I will be there. No rush. It will happen.
I'll give you a report on my other new site later.
Till then,
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.

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.
You can read more about search engine optimization by visiting my ReddingSEO.com website.

Redding search engine optimization - my first assignment
What the one thing any new business has to do? In my mind it's gain trust. Trust is gained over time and in the case of www.reddingseo.com it will be by proving we can do exactly what I say I can do. I do have a team that is working with me, but the heart of this issue rests on my sholders.
I will admit it's a little scary. But I can do it. Let me tell you about my first assignment. It's a test actually.
My brother-in-law is working with me on this one. He's well known in our area and he's picked out my first challenge. His friend owns 4 different businesses online. Sadly, he's paid a lot of money to have his site gain visibility through search engines that has never panned out.
I have to admit that this is not only disturbing to me, it's very confusing. Sometimes SEO is complex and extremely challenging. There will be times that I will have to say, "No, I cannot put your site on the first page in Google for that keyword search phrase".
It's a sad answer, but it is the truth. Why is it confusing? I guess because if you know anything about search engine optimization, you should know better than to make promises you can't keep. The second reason is because I can already tell that whoever this guy paid to help get his site traffic did not even come close to doing the first thing that MUST be done when helping someone gain more traffic.
What is this most important thing?
It all starts at the foundation of SEO. The website. Before you begin any type of SEO, you must first fix the website. This was not done.
The good news is, I can do it. And this is where I'll be starting. So, let me put my first assignment right here online where everyone can follow it.
The website subject is Beef Stix. The URL is: http://countryboymeatstix.com My job is to get this site on the first page for the keyword search term, beef stix. I'm going to work on getting that site within the first 5 results.
However, the site is very far from being optimized. Google has no clue that this site should be listed within the beef stix catagory. Why? Because it appears to be more about being a distributor and not really about beef stix at all.
So, that's my first chore. To help get that site noticed. Bookmark this blog if you'd like to follow along and see how I do with this first challenge. I'm giving myself 30 days to get this site listed within those first five results using the keyword phrase, beef stix.
Till nextime...
