Search Engine Optimisation can take low ranking web
sites higher in search engine rankings – High
ranking English language sites use our global Search Engine Optimisation
(SEO) services, based in Brisbane, Queensland, Australia, to optimise
their Websites and make them easily found by the search engines and
directories.
Monthly ranking check conducted 18
May 2008
We used the www.google.com
search engine to prepare these ranking reports. (As of June 06 Google
conduct about 44% of web searches worldwide. We believe Australian searches
on Google put them at over 70%).
In view of the www.yahoo.com
Directory decision to start its own search engine, and not depend on
Google results from end of March 04, we have been watching Yahoo! results
with interest and we have also conducted ranking checks on Yahoo! (As
of June 06 Yahoo! conduct about 28% of web searches worldwide)
During November 04 Microsoft launched their own Beta search engine,
and on 1 Feb 05 they abandoned results retrieved from other search engines
and directories. The Beta search engine became MSN's full blown and
impressive search engine mid September 06. We consequently conducted
ranking checks on their newly launched search engine www.live.com
(the searches on live.com are shown below as MSN)
(As of June 06 MSN conduct about 13% of web searches worldwide)
All of our Websites are organic - meaning that none have ever
needed to pay for position / placement (sponsored sites) nor have any
paid for search engine, or directory submissions. Organic sites are
also known as natural, ie no fertiliser required ;-)).
The keyword phrases we have used to find the following web sites
are commonly used search terms for the goods or services the
various businesses provide.
Those search words are highly competitive and not unique to an
individual site.
Although some words may be foreign to us, those words are well known
within their respective industries.
The following searches are from the global search results, not
the local Australian search results.
Many of our clients, including 2 of Australia's leading banks, prohibit
us from mentioning their name, which we respect along with numerous
client's Web work we have performed so the following results are only
from those that have given us consent to use their name.
Rather than choose only those results that appear favourable
we have displayed results that others may decide not show.
As we have said elsewhere in this site, the search engines may overlook
a site if the Host did not retrieve the Web page and removed it from
their index, albeit temporarily removed from their results, which is
probably the reason some sites don't rank at all - check back next month!!
There is little point looking beyond the first 30 sites retrieved because
if a site isn't indexed in the first 30, the potential customer will
probably have "bought" from a higher ranking competitor.
The search word/s used are in red
