Fort Worth Web Design Services

SEO, short for search engine optimization, the process of increasing the amount of visitors to a web site by ranking high in the search results of a search engine.

The higher a web page ranks in the results of a search, the greater the chance that site will be visited by a user. It is common practice for Internet users to not click through pages and pages of search results, so where a website ranks in a search is essential for directing more traffic toward the website.

At Fort Worth Web Design our service is more than just designing your web site. Included with every web site we design is a basic Search Engine Optimization service at no charge. This service helps to ensure that your web site is accessible to a search engine and improves the chances that the site will be found, properly indexed and ranked by the search engine.

The search engine optimization includes all of the proper meta tags, descriptions, key words and alt tags along with the proper navigation links.

We also offer for a fee a more advanced SEO service that includes complete keyword research, competitive analysis, keyword placement, optimization for each page in your website and search engine submission with submission report.

While we can offer no guarantees as to your ranking in a search result, we do everything professionally possible to help your web pages rank near or at the top.

With every website that we design we submit that website to more than 40 top search engines and directories including Google, Yahoo and MSN. All of this at no charge. When we do the submission you will receive several emails asing that you verify or confirm your submission. It is okay to do so. they just want to make sure that is is not a spam submission so they are asking for human confirmation.

After the submission process we will provide you with a report listing the engines and directories your site was submitted to. Do not expect our new site to show up in the listings right away. It can take from 3 days to 3 months for all of the search engines to index and list you. Once listed do not expect your listing to be number 1. That takes time and if you want instant ranking then we suggest running a Google Adword Campaign and buying your spot until your orgainic (free) ranking improves. Click here for more details.

To keep your website relevant and appealing to visitors it is very important that you keep it updated. Fort Worth Web Site Design offers ongoing maintenance for all the websites we design. There is no monthly fee, you just pay for the amount of time it takes us to make the updates or changes you need.

You should review your website at least once every three months to see if you have any outdated information or if you should add new information.

Hosting with DFW Web Design

You don't need to host with us. If you prefer to use your current web site host or to secure your own hosting services, you may do so. See our Resources page for some suggested 3rd party hosting providers.
