Why does people feel sleepy after their have their meal? I’m so sleepy now. I wanted to check out the online degree from Capella Univerity but I guess it is not the time now. I went for a talk today and I heard some pretty amazing speakers. Not only that they were insipiring but most of them were all highly qualified. With their own business and all, some of them even get to find time to do their degree. I still haven’t decide to join up with the business opportunity yet. Right now, I need to find my offer letter and read the terms and condition but I’m so sleepy. Shall I wait a bit later tonite?

Many brick and mortar companies that are catering to their local clientele find it hard to SEO for local markets despite targeting the best keywords. Quite naturally this is not a surprising matter as many of them, although efficient in running their off line businesses, typically stumble over two critical blocks.

Stumbling Blocks and SEO for Local Markets

When local businesses set to do SEO for local markets, many of them invariably ignore the need to think rationally because they are advised by SEO experts to target the big three search engine users and sometimes get confused and tackle this feat on a global level resulting in global traffic. The direct fall out of this step is exposing your business offers, products or services to the world at large only to dilute all other local online SEO efforts. If your product is not global you are in trouble.

So here is the stumbling block number one.

1. Not using localized target keywords, however good they are, will leave your new websites way down the SERP’s locally. Actual localized keywords you should be targeting in which will bring you a steady stream of natural traffic.

The second block where you might probably stumble, especially if you are new to web and optimization is wrongfully assuming internet marketing techniques as something radically different and for removed from the earthly- worldly affairs that we all do by trial and errors over and again. The crux of the matter here is SEO for local markets is only a small part of larger marketing exercises, with certain twists, to get exposure with local locations.

Here is the second stumbling point in SEO for local markets.

2. SEO for local markets is not a marketing technique but a sophisticated local technique of optimizing websites on a local basis. Obviously, the one who knows the pulse of the market is not the SEO expert but can contribute his knowledge to SEO expert.

So, What Is Actually SEO For Local Markets?

Let me dash you through steps involved in SEO for local markets in short.

1. Localize your target keywords. This includes prefixing or suffixing local terms, names, and names of areas, cities or zip codes with target keywords. Example: “remodeling contractors Orange County”, not “remodeling contractors”.

2. Submit to local search engines (find one, if you don’t know already), directories and web based yellow pages.

I’m looking for a software that can convert mpg files to rmvb format. I tried searching on Google but all the software that were listed can’t really work or there were problem with it. Some of the software only able to convert the video but without audio in it. I test a couple of software like the Easy Video Converter and ALO Video Converter and both of them work. For the ALO Video Converter, the audio is cut off less than 5 minutes into the video. As for the Easy Video Converter, the audio video synchronization are totally out. To some it might be nothing but I find it weird if you see a person talking but there is no voice coming out. Anyone knows a better software?

Our new friend Cabel has screenshots of advertisements on Japanese trains. When I was in Japan, I ignored these, generally, if there was only text and no people in them because I never learned to read Japanese. So I don’t know, but I also don’t remember if the ads then instructed consumers to search for specific keywords. The instructions in Cabel’s screenshots often appear alongside the website URL, of course.

I apologize if similar ads appear on New York subway trains, too. In addition to general ad blindness anyway, I live in Kentucky, where we only use trains to haul cargo, and if you’re lucky, you don’t have to go near a city bus or a Greyhound.

The point is (sorry it took so long) advertising not just your site’s URL but also search instructions for keywords you know you rank well for, will be, if it’s not already, an important part of advertising strategies. You can target a sponsored search campaign to correspond with other media efforts, and if the organic results are there, too, the effect is magnified. It doubles (at least) the brand association a company is already trying to solidify by offering the words you want associated with the brand.

Simple truth: Web addresses are hard to remember exactly. Example: The TV announcer instructs you to visit http://www.mysite.check_out_our_site.net/deals/wtf

That’s a lot to remember. A couple of years ago, GM and Kellogg were on to something, too, when they instructed TV viewers to search for “Pontiac” and “Special K” on Google and Yahoo respectively. Even when that was going on, people tended to focus more on the legal nuances of trademark keyword use and the then epic battle between Google and Yahoo.

But not much attention was given to the idea behind those campaigns: It’s easier, if you’re certain about the search results, to tell a consumer to search for a specific keyword than it is to get them to remember a long string of seemingly arbitrary symbols—arbitrary to them, not a computer.

It didn’t help that Mazda hijacked the idea and bid on Pontiac’s trademark to lure searchers away, sparking a whole new controversy.

Advertise keywords, not just brands, URLs

I remember sitting in on a session at one of the Search Engine Strategies conferences as a befuddled metrics firm rep told a crowd of equally befuddled marketers that a significant percentage of the search population actually typed the URL of the desired website into the search bar.

The assumption then was that searchers were unsophisticated and weren’t aware of the difference between a search bar and an address bar. Later, I would watch with the same wonder as my stepson searched for Wikipedia or YouTube instead of just typing it into the address bar with the appropriate .com or .org.

I tried to set him straight only to the get the average teenager response of, “It’s faster this way,” which really means, “Shut up, old man, and go watch some VHS tapes or something.”

I’m sooooo 1996.

I just thought he was stubborn (and he is stubborn) and wasn’t willing to listen. But he might have been on to something. It might not be lack of Internet sophistication that prevents people from entering addresses directly, but natural (and reasonable) laziness.

It’s easier and sometimes faster to type “youtube” or “youtube.com” into Google and then click on the link than it is to risk making a mistake in the address bar and bringing up a site you don’t want. If you screw up in the search bar, or misspell it by typing in “youtbue” Google anticipates that and adjusts in case you goofed. The address bar, in that sense, is unforgiving. Miss by a letter, or in some cases, by a dash or dot or number or slash, and you wind up where you don’t want to be.
