With Google�s incredible market share in today�s digital world, it has become increasingly important for any business, whether start-up or new, to have a strong focus on Search Engine Optimization or �SEO.� That said, what most people don�t know is that SEO is not just about the copy written for your site or the �content.� In fact, although secretive, Google seems to put a lot of weight on many other items in your website�s make-up. Things like how fast your site loads and whether or not you have �alt-tags� to your images can have a major impact on where you rank in the search engine rankings or �SERPS.�
With this understanding, we�ve created this very basic 10 step guide to setting up an SEO friendly website that will help you in gaining higher rankings in the SERPS. While this is not an all inclusive guide (Google is secretive and does not express all that it takes into consideration when giving rank), it is a fantastic start to helping your business structure your site in a way to aid in your rankings.
