It’s true that Google dominates the website optimisation plans of almost every webmaster. If you are running your own website you really need some way to optimise it and the first thing you need to focus on is the organic placement your website gets on the organic search engine results page of Google.
This is because like it or not Google dominates the search field globally with almost nine out of ten people using its homepage to start their web searches and more than five out of ten using it to start their web searches in the US.
This popularity is exactly why Google (and everything Google does) is so pivotal to a website’s online success and tends to dominate the thoughts of many webmasters. At Help My SEO we acknowledge this giving you many tips and hints as well as tonnes of search optimisation advice to help you get there fast and your website to be served high.
We never forget that clever positioning and clever optimisation can also give you a niche site success.
Online spending is increasing. A convergence of more web savvy buyers, a maturation of the technology and eCommerce website improvements is leading to a bumper year in online spending with the figures about to get better.
