•   Data is compiled, and delivered as specifically
    as possible to a user via SERPs

•   Ranking Factors
    •   General ranking algorithm

•   Improvements/changes take time
    •   Google Cache
Maximize Your SEO Efforts


                How to Take Advantage of SEO
1.       Make sure your site is technically sound (for SEO)

2.       Identify Keywords

3.       Use Keywords on your site

6.       Build More Links
Sometimes 4 is Better Than 1


Tip #1 Keywords

                  Tip #2 Use Google Tools
•   http://www.google.com/analytics/

•   https://www.google.com/webmasters/tools/

•   https://www.google.com/support/webmasters/

•   http://static.googleusercontent.com/external_content/untrusted_dlcp/w
    ww.google.com/en//webmasters/docs/search-engine-optimization-
    starter-guide.pdf
If You Build Links Traffic Will Come


                   Tip #3 Build Some Links

•   Ask a sister organization for a link

•   Distribute a press release optimized for search with a link to your site

•   Create a Twitter profile and “tweet” a link to ypur site (no followed, but
