Search Engine Placement: What to Expect

by admin on July 15, 2009

You’ve just signed up with Netbiz for Search Engine Placement.  Your sales rep told you we would get you on the first page of Google or Yahoo, and we guarantee it 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.  Here are a few things you should expect after getting signed up.

It takes 3 – 5 days to go live.

Our Placement department creates a new account with Google for each new client that we have.  It’s a time intensive process, but it allows us to have full control of your account and the many features that are part of Google’s advertising program, Adwords.

Google has an automated system that reviews each of it’s advertisers websites to make sure that it meets certain quality & relevance standards.  Initially, Google may review the site and bring it down temporarily, so you may see your site up and then come down again right away.  If this happens, please be patient while the process happens.  Your site will be up again in a day or two.  For this and other factors, it can sometimes take up to 10 days to go fully live after you are signed up with us.

You can help.

Any advertising campaign is a collaborative effort.  We can get people to your front door and when they get there, it’s your opportunity to seal the deal.  Usually the first step is people’s first impressions of your website.  See this post on 7 ways to improve your website for more info on how to make sure your website will entice customers to make the next step.

After your website, make sure whoever answers your phone is trained to say the right things to your customers, as well as asking where they heard about you.  Often our clients don’t know that they’re being found on Google because the client calls them and doesn’t mention it!

There will be some adjustment.

Google advertising system is dynamic, so it is often necessary to make some manual adjustments to your campaigns within the first month for the campaign to reach optimal performance.  Factors affecting where you show up on the page include: the quality of your website, the text of your ad, who else is advertising and how much they are spending.
