Search Engine Optimization (SEO) is a process whereby your present Web site page design is fine-tuned to match the algorithms used by search engine “spiders”. Search engine spiders are programs owned by the search engines that scan your web site and then index the results in their databases. Individuals searching the Internet by Google, Yahoo, MSN or other search engines will enter words, known as Search terms or Keywords, and, hopefully, your Web site will be one of the resultant links displayed.

As many companies have determined over the last few years, advertising and marketing campaigns using the Internet are the most cost effective processes available. Rather than thousands of brochures, one page on a Web site can be viewed by thousands of users. Rather than costly mailings, email costs only for the time to prepare the user database.

As for SEO, the cost is very low in proportion to the results.

• The primary cost involved is that of the evaluation and analysis of the points discussed above. Once that is done, you will have a Best Practices document that will detail exactly how a Web page is to be built to be most effective for search engine spiders. A template can be created and the cost of creating a new Optimized Web page would then be minimal.
• The secondary cost involved is that of training your IT or eMarketing department in the tools and procedures of SEO so that they can continue on their own to optimize future pages.
• The final cost is developing the procedures for measuring and reporting the results of the SEO process on your Web site. This includes the “tweaking” process and what issues to watch out for in future site design changes.

We can help you with this process. Contact us at sales@softwarekey.com. We will help you determine if we can assist you in your business goals. We also realize that there are no "secrets" to this process. The methods are straight-forward. They take time to begin, but afterward, maintenance is a simple task. Consequently, we are providing SEO at a cost far less than the $5,000-20,000 dollars quoted so often on the Internet. And, we will provide you with documentation so that you can continue to develop your site on your own.

Anyone with a website is eligible to participate. Although, you may have better results if your site offers complementary products. Our products are more likely to appeal to your viewers if your site is aimed at software developers, small businesses, and companies looking for software protection and automated sales.
