Website Development:

GMHorsepower.com increases to over 15,000 visits in a 30 day period!

Our SEO work is paying off! Almost all of those 15,000 hits are generated from search engine traffic from relevant keywords. That means people are searching for keywords like "zz572" and landing on the site. SEO is an on-going process that takes dedication and time. We've been building GMHP slowly over the last year and a half (in between working for our other web clients). We are now on the first page of Google for some relevant, high traffic keywords that many people are searching for. That doesn't mean we're done. It takes on-going work to stay at the top. There is a lot of competition in this particular industry which means more work to stay at the top of the search results pages.

Link 2 recently installed and configured a classified ad system for users of the site. This system will allow users to list performance parts as well as GM vehicles for sale on the site for a small fee. This system manages user accounts, ads and more.

Please contact Link 2 if you would like more information on building business through web site development or web site marketing - SEO, PPC, etc..

What Kind of Site Do You Need?

One of the leading questions that we get is this: How much does a website cost? That's a hard question to answer before we know what you want your website to do. Building a good website is like building a house. First, you need a plan. A plan will define the website project and help to insure that you get the site that you need. The plan should include every page on the site with notes about any functionality specific to the page beyond copy and images. It’s a good idea to specify text and image content as early as possible so that we know how much work each page will take to do. Being prepared and doing your homework will result in a more accurate proposal and should save you money on your project.

Is Website Marketing Important to You?

If you want your website to drive sales leads, then ABSOLUTELY, website marketing is important to you! There are few website development companies that understand how to optimize your site for the search engines. Search Engine Optimization is a highly specialized skill that goes far beyond web copywriting and good HTML skills. Page structure, coding style, title tags and many other things come into play to get a website to the top of the search engines for appropriate keywords.

A Few Common Web Marketing Misconceptions

First, you can’t optimize your website for every search engine on the web. Even if you could, it would be a waste of time and money. You generally only need to optimize for Google, Yahoo and MSN. Those 3 search engines alone comprise around 80% or more of the searches that occur on the web. Special circumstances may warrant looking at other search engines, but most can focus on those 3 and be very successful with online marketing. Submitting your website to a large number of search engines is generally worthless. We typically put a link from our Link2communications.com website to our client sites. Having that link to your site will “submit” your site to the search engines. The Link 2 website is indexed every 10-20 days by Google, so the link going out to your website will usually get your site indexed faster than submitting your site to the search engines. Submitting a site to some search engines can still be done. Our way of linking to your site from a high pagerank website such as link2communications.com is a much better way of doing it. Why? That link counts for web marketing purposes - at least a small amount! Link building strategy is another important aspect of website marketing!
