They wanted to enter the online jewelry market place but needed guidance in terms of setting up an online store and an effective way to get their name out in a highly competitive market place. We were able to successfully take their idea and run with it.

We first focused on what would make their online store unique and what would naturally set them apart from the rest. The House of Jewelry is trying to be an online leader in discount and sterling silver jewelry.

In addition to setting up their online store, Born enacted a convenient mobile shop, along with the creation of Facebook and Twitter pages to interact with future and present customers.

However, creating the site was only half of the equation. The real test lies in getting their name out there in such a crowded market place. Lucky for us, we have many years of experience and many time tested SEO strategies to allow these jewelers to shine in the search spotlight.

Dr. D called upon Born Interactive to deliver a sleek web site to coincide with the grand opening of his clinic. Having just earned his Doctor of Chiropractic Degree from Palmer College of Chiropractic West in San Jose, California, Dino began making immediate plans to setup his own facility.

Dino realized that a presence on the web could not only educate and attract future clients, it could serve as a means to stay in touch with current clients. Born incorporated several social media outlets into the web site to give it a more hands on feel.

Our attempts to increase Vision Quest’s visibility on the web included a Yelp profile along with other local SEO tactics to utilize their psychical address listing. Our Search Engine Optimization strategy will begin delivering new customers hoping to relieve back & neck pain within a matter of weeks.

They may not come to your Web site if it is not easily crawled and indexed by search engines like Google. The design of your Web site factors into where you’re seen in search results.

Search engine spiders continuously crawl the Internet for content. The easier your Web site content is spelled out and defined, the more effective your subject matter will be. Effective content will naturally improve your search engine ranking all by itself.

A company or individual should be hesitant about employing Flash technology throughout their entire Web site. Why you ask?

On top of the obscene bandwidth Flash requires, it can not be seen by search engine for the most part. Flash is the “sexy” version of Web design. Yes, Flash incorporates “bells and whistles” and can even allow users to easily interact with your brand. An entire website should not be done in Flash because it has the ability to disable engines from viewing it properly.

Content, or quality content to be more specific, is what search engines desire to index your Web site favorably. Quality content is fresh, frequently changing material that engages your readers. Does that mean that you should constantly be adding and changing content. Not in all cases, but it certainly doesn’t hurt.

Your potential readers or visitors depend on your Web site’s ability to be first read by search engines.

So, what else do you need to know about how search engine’s view and rank your site? Talk it over with us by filling out our contact form.

The term geo-modified means that a search engine will alter your results based on your location.  For instance, our friends at Mallorca Restaurant wanted to rank near the top for the keyword “Pittsburgh Restaurant“.  An extremely competitive term to rank for organically, we were able to execute our SEO strategy to deliver results.

Though Mallorca’s branding is phenomenal in Pittsburgh and “mallorca pittsburgh” is the predominately searched keyword, they felt as if they were missing out.  They were right.

Despite hundreds of restaurants in Pittsburgh, we were able to get them to show up #1 in Google’s local business results for the term “pittsburgh restaurant“.  Our strategy also landed Mallorca’s listing on the front page of Google  for the keyword “Pittsburgh restaurant.”

They experienced increased traffic as a result of their new found exposure.  Not only that, we were ultimately able to translate their keyword success into business results.
