Gordon Eberhardt of Sherlock Homes Inspection LLC, an Illinois Real Estate Inspector, recently contacted me to give his Illinois Real Estate Inspection Service website a total and complete Search Engine Optimization (SEO).The Search Engine Optimization process required extensive re-authoring and editing of the existing text that was on the website. After small business website design and maintenance specialist Tom Rumish Website Development did the in-depth Keyword and Keyword-Phrases research, the text authoring was initiated by Mr. Eberhardt. Every draft of the revised text for each page of the web site was reviewed, analyzed and often re-edited before the final draft of the text was arrived at for each individual web page.
As the text editing portion of the Search Engine Optimization was underway by Mr. Eberhardt, new page layouts were designed by Tom Rumish which would further enhance the website for better Search Engine Results Position (SERP). Two different graphic layout concepts were designed which were perceived to be optimal as far as SEO is concerned. Mr. Eberhardt made his choice of the two designs and work was then started on the actual re-construction of the website.
Some new pages were added to the new Sherlock Homes Illinois Real Estate Inspection Service website that had not existed in the older version of the website. After all of the new web site pages were finished and the SEO was complete the website was again analyzed for a final time before was it was put online to replace the old website.
After the new, optimized website was online, a search engine submission of the website was done to over 50 search engines.
The Search Engine Optimization of the Sherlock Homes Illinois Real Estate Inspection Service website was a huge success. In less than a week, http://www.sherlockhomesinspection-illinois.com/ was on page one of Google search results for three different broad search terms which had been the primary targets of the optimization process. Search results also yielded position #20 (bottom of 2nd page) for a fourth broad search term that had been a secondary target of the optimization process. I’m not talking about specific search terms that include the name, location or other things specific to the company. I’m talking about competitive, broad search terms showing amazing results.
There are other aspects of the Search Engine Optimization which are still being worked on which will further increase the Search Engine Results Position (SERP) of the Sherlock Home Inspection website and should in all probability help with some of the other search terms which had been less targeted during the SEO process.
The techniques and procedure used in the Search Engine Optimization (SEO) process used on the Sherlock Homes Inspection were recently learned in a SEO continuing education course which was taken by Tom Rumish earlier this year.
