Are You Producing The Right Synergy On Your Site?

January 22nd, 2009 by Stephan Barrett

Getting the right equilibrium in your search engine optimization (SEO) and a profitable user experience can be a challenge. It seems that most companies error on favoring one strategy over the other. 

For example your company may be stuffing the same keywords into every “alt” tag navigation graphic. This detracts from the user experience by making the page slower to load or visually impaired for page viewers.

Or your company maybe maximizing usability without concern for SEO by streamlining the homepage and other relevant pages, making it as simple and non-relvent as possible. Allowing search engines nothing to sink their teeth into to identify appropriate keywords for your business. 

When SEO is used properly it can enhance the usability of the site for the user and visa versa, usability, when used properly enhances the search engines findability of the site.

Think of your internal hierarchical linking structure for both your users and search engines, you want users to link to you because the more relevant links you have the more Google see them as votes and the more votes you have search engines see you as a authority in your business, and this ultimately helps your site climb to the top of search engines which increases your ROI.
