Organic Search

    Search Engine Optimization (SEO), also known as Organic Search Marketing, is the process of making a site and its content highly relevant for both search engines and searchers. Search Engine Optimization (SEO) includes technical tasks to make it easier for search engines to find and index a site for the appropriate keywords, as well as marketing-focused tasks to make a site more appealing to users. Successful search marketing helps a site gain top positioning for relevant words and phrases.

    How Does Search Engine Optimization Work?

    Crawler based search engines, such as HotBot, Google, MSN and Yahoo!, "crawl" the Web by means of a "Web spider". The spider is a powerful computer program that accesses thousands of Web pages and records what it finds. It possesses a level of intelligence, allowing it to make fairly sophisticated judgements on relevancy and store the information in its database. When you search one of these systems, you're actually searching the records in the spider's database.

    The spiders operate constantly on the Web. Once your site is on a spiders list, it will receive periodic re-visits, and so any changes to your client's site will get recorded on the search engines. Page titles, body text and other elements all play a role in how the page is given relevancy.

    Crawler Based Search Engines Use the Spiders To Do Three Things:

    • It visits the Web page
    • It then follows links to other pages within the site
    • It then returns to the site on a regular basis to identify site changes

    The information the spider finds goes into the "index". The index is a huge electronic list containing a copy of every Web page that the spider finds. If a website changes, the index is updated with the new information. These updates can take a while sometimes. The time between being spidered and indexed can be several months. Until the site is indexed, it is not available to any searchers. Because of this fact, WSI Consultants find it crucial to submit to the search engines as soon as the site has been launched.
