When The Big Dogs Of SEO Have Problems

January 5, 2011

Welcome to the Google Places SEO Services blog at Tucson SEO Solutions.

Before I get into today’s post I want to recognize and welcome our visitors from the Arizona communities of Safford, Thatcher, and Wilcox. I also wanted you to know that you are here because I have specifically targeted you and your businesses need to rank well in the Google Places search results.I hope that you find this information useful. And if you need Google Places SEO services that you will consider Tucson SEO Solutions.

When The Big Dogs Of SEO Have Problems

I follow many of the name SEO’ers in the industry on Twitter. From this group, I have noticed some interesting tweets lately. Not long ago I noticed Aaron Wall, of SEOBook, an industry leader making note about ranking concerns.

I’ve known about his woes as he has been the one of the big dogs when it comes to the search for SEO. It has been this way ever since I got into SEO. I cut my SEO baby teeth on his blog and I greatly appreciate all that he has done.

Then I saw this tweet aaronwall aaron wall blog post suggestion: “when I was making money I didn’t have the time of day 4 u. now my site is penalized & I need $50k of free consulting” I thought wow even Aaron is have problems with this new Google Places Search format and he’s not alone.

In this screen shot you can see what the Google SERP’s are looking like from Tucson.

Now where is his site to be found in the first 5 positions. You have to go all the way down to the 9 position. But he is not alone here as another industry giant SEOmoz is ranking 10th. If this is happening in Tucson for local ip based searches it is likely happening everywhere. This has got to really be difficult on these businesses and many others.

While I understand their pain, it also is a positive for the leading local websites in most markets as far as I can tell. Tucson SEO Solutions is currently ranking 4th for the search for SEO from the Tucson area. And as I have indicated previously, this has positively impacted traffic to our website. Our numbers are definitely increasing. The good thing is that only one company listed ahead of us actually sells SEO services and we are the first local listing.

The reason is very simple as only about 20 – 40 % of those looking for SEO in Tucson will ever actually search for SEO Tucson or Tucson SEO. We are now able to pick up this previously missed opportunities from those that merely enter SEO in to the Google search box from Tucson. This is happens just about everywhere and it is negatively impacting national companies on a local level.

Have you checked to see how this is impacting your website? Local sites now have an advantage over national sites that they have never had before. As I have been saying for a while now if you are a local leader in your markets you may be experiencing similar results. This is creating more opportunities for local leaders in the Google search results.

It also makes  being in the top three in your markets more important than ever. If you are not ranking well locally then please do give me a call, as local is all that we have ever done.

Local SEO – Seven Reasons To Consider Tucson SEO For Google Places Needs

December 7, 2010

Welcome to the Google Places SEO blog at Tucson SEO Solutions.

Local SEO – Seven Reasons To Consider Tucson SEO For Google Places Needs

Here is a video that I recently completed to provide support that we may be the best option for Google Places SEO in Arizona.

Here is the videos script.

Hell-o I am Urban the owner of Tucson SEO Solutions The purpose of this video to reach the local small business community and to present a case for considering Tucson SEO Solutions as your Google Places SEO requirements.

Since Google doesn’t allow you to use the words Google Places or SEO in its listings we must rely on the organics Google results to make our point.

I have always asked why would someone hire an SEO company that doesn’t rank well for the service that they wish to sell to you. Our job after all is to get your website or Places listing ranking well.

And if they can’t rank their website well for the service that they are selling how to you expect that they ever get your site and business listing  ranking well?

This logic will become apparent as I show you 7 reasons why you should be discussing your Places SEO needs with Tucson SEO Solutions.

Reason Number 1 Is displayed in This screen shot which displays the search results for Google Places SEO Tucson. Tucson is my hometown and my primary market. It also has over a million individuals living in the city and surrounding areas. And it supports thousands of small businesses. Tucson SEO currently ranks Number 1, 2, and 3 Plus our Merchants Circle listing rank 4 and 5.

Reason Number 2  Is displayed in screen shot displays the search results for Google Places SEO Phoenix. Phoenix is the 5th largest city in the US. It is also the home to 10’s of thousands of small businesses in the city and surrounding areas. Tucson SEO currently ranks number both number 1 and  2.

Reason Number 3 Is displayed in screen shot which displays the search results for Google Places SEO Mesa. It is part of the Phoenix metroplex and is the 40th largest city in the US. It is also the home to thousands of small businesses. Tucson SEO currently ranks number 1, 2, and 3.

Reason Number 4 Is displayed in this screen shot which displays the search results for Google Places SEO Glendale. It is part of the Phoenix metroplex and is the 72 largest city in the US. It is also the home to thousands of small businesses. Tucson SEO currently ranks number 1, 2, and 3.

Reason Number 5 Is displayed in screen shot which displays the search results for Google Places SEO Chandler. It is also part of the Phoenix metroplex and is the 77 largest city in the US. It is also the home to thousands of small businesses. Tucson SEO currently ranks number 1, 2, and 3.

Reason Number 6 Is displayed in screen shot which displays the search results for Google Places SEO Scottsdale. It is also part of the Phoenix metroplex and is the 80th largest city in the US. It is also the home to thousands of small businesses. Tucson SEO currently ranks number 1, 2, and 3.

Reason Number 7 is displayed in screen shot which displays the search results for Google Places SEO Arizona. It is also the home to 10’s of thousands of small businesses. Tucson SEO currently rank both number 1 and 2.

What I have pointed out here today is that actions speak louder than words. At Tucson SEO Solutions we not only talk the talk but we walk the walk.

Tucson SEO Solutions doesn’t sell SEO packages we only provide real time solutions for your website traffic needs. As part of  These Solutions we offer DIY or do it yourself options or we can do it for you and completely managing all aspects for your local organic  and Places listing needs.

If you are serious about ranking well in the new Google Places Search environment then please do contact us at 520-505-6024 again that’s 520-505-6024.

This has been Urban with Tucson SEO providing solutions that create probabilities out of possibilities.

Another Chapter My Video Marketing Adventure V2

August 30, 2010

Welcome to the Phoenix SEO Internet Marketing Blog at Tucson SEO Solutions.

Another Chapter My Video Marketing

Adventure V2

This is part of a multi-part series that chronicles my adventures with video marketing. I have decided to write these posts as a way to motivate you if you are considering using video marketing to promote your business.

V2

It has been, an still is, an interesting adventure. I have been blessed to have a business partner that has supported me and provided the tools needed to prosper at video marketing. The rest has been all about desire, the desire to learn and excel. I had already laid the groundwork for video marketing. As part of my link building efforts I had already established hundreds if not thousands of social profiles.

Now, it was time to optimize these sites by uploading useful content in the form of video’s. This is part of what I like to call Scratch My Back Marketing. This requires adding quality content to website that provide user generated content. I provide quality content and the sites useful backlinks, marketing channels, and exposure.

I had been satisfied to merely use these sites to build backlinks through blog posts. It was my form of article marketing. This is a huge part of  my Scratch My Back Marketing  strategy. This method has proven to be extremely effective. But I was underutilizing these sites as I didn’t provide videos as well.

Well, that has definitely changed. These videos are also way cool on a person level as well. I grew up in small town rural and extremely mountainous western Pennsylvania in the 60’s.  Our local YMCA had a disc jockey club. I became a member and was soon on the air doing a one hour Saturday morning radio show. Now, I’m back in front of a microphone and I’m really having fun again.

As part of my marketing adventure I am still using blog posting. I provide a transcripts of my latest video, Why Isn’t Your Website Ranking  # 1?. I end the posts by linking to the video on YouTube. This provides more views, more friends, and more backlinks all of which can improve my presence and rankings on YouTube and in the Google organic results. I also pick up some useful links as well.

As a side fact, that I just discovered, I found out that YouTube is the second most used search engine in the US. Yes, YouTube is also a search engine, in this case, a video search engine.

To promote these videos I will use every website at my disposal from my large database of social media sites. This latest video will be the first in a series of videos that focus on providing non cost local SEO training.

While I have been promoting these videos on a wide range of video and social sites I have managed to use these sites to Crush The Competition for several keyword phrases. These phrases appear in my blog post and video titles. This has worked so well that I have ranked for ever position on the first page of Google for keyword phrases like Local Arizona SEO Solutions.

Yes, that going 10 for 10! This videos highlights how I accomplished this feat. This actually almost became a bit absurd as I eventually held the first 19 positions for this search. Now, that’s what I call crushing the competition. Not only that but my business is the only one that shows in the Google Places maps listing.

My latest video that posted six days ago now has 68 views. It started out averaging 5 views a day. It then went to 9 and it is now up to 11 views a day. Yes, these are very low numbers but not in the markets that I compete in. This is really something in keep in mind…. More on this point in the next post.

Too be continued…

Tucson SEO… Solutions that create probabilities out of possibilities.

Older Internet Entrepreneurs Rule!

April 19, 2009

Welcome to the Google Places SEO Citations blog at Tucson SEO Solutions.

This blog covers local SEO which is dominated by Google, Google Places and the need for citations. The blog also covers just about any thing related to Google search results and related topics. I hope that you might glean some useful resources while you are here.

Older Internet Entrepreneurs Rule!

This post is based on a Wall Street Journal article dated 05/06/2008.

The story goes on to take a look at the true image of an Internet entrepreneur. Despite the success of a college dropout like Bill gates, this is not the true image of the Internet guru.

It is often seen that the Internet has been built around a bunch of 20 something college dropouts. However, the Kauffman Foundation recently altered this view. They surveyed some 600 or so entrepreneurs who started businesses over the decade from 1995 to 2005 and who have revenues that exceeded a million dollars.

Their report concluded that the average age was 39 and that 24% where over 45. The report noted that only 8% did not earn a college degree. It also noted that almost sixteen and a half years had passed between college graduation and when they started their internet business.

Well, we haven’t made our millions, but our business training began when I was 52 and this business was launched when I was 53! We may not have gotten there yet, but we have a written business plan and a drive to succeed that says that we will.

Do you rule?
