You might have the best site on the web...
but if no one can find it, it doesn't do any good!

As a professional search rank specialist, it's my job to understand how search engines work and make sure your pages conform to what the engines want to see. What this means is I'll design or modify your web site in such a way that it ranks high (naturally) on many of the more popular search sites. If your site is simply going to be a "brochure site" that your sales people use as a tool, then you a are fine. However, if you want people to be able to actually FIND your site on their own - without prompting from your sales staff - then you have to position it so clients can find it!

I specialize in modifying existing sites to achieve high search ranking, but I can also build your web business from the ground up, or go through your site page by page and figure out what should change from a graphics/usability/customer impression standpoint. Companies even use me as their "project coordinator" to help designers pinpoint and reach web perfection. I am skilled and educated in the psychology of design as it pertains to sales, marketing, education, and page usability. My work will not only bring you more visitors, but will also bring more customers.

I work closely with clients to make sure that they understand the process their site is going through and why each step is important. I use plain English, never "talk-down" to clients, and appreciate the fact that your business is especially important to you. As a professional teacher I founded and run The Academy of Web Design, San Francisco. If you choose to work with me, you'll learn about search optimization as part of the bargain.

You should beware of ads that offer to submit your site to 200 or so search engines. Simply getting listed does not mean that your site will be found in the engines by anyone! Listing with engines is easy. Creating a page that ranks high in searchesthat's the important part.

If you'd like to call or email me, we can talk about your site's needs. I can give you a basic education about how Search Engine Ranking works, and I can do a little research to determine how much work it will take to get you to the top of the Search Engines. You can ask any questions you may have, and if you feel you may be interested in improving your site's search ranking, we can get to work on making your site more profitable. Rates vary depending on the job but they are not extreme.

Improving your search ranking is one of the smartest and most cost effective things you can do for your business! For less money than a print ad in the Chronicle, a professionally optimized web site can indefinitely draw targeted customers to your business!
