1)
What is search engine optimization?
Answer Search engine optimization (SEO) is designing, writing, and
coding (in HTML) your entire web site so that there is a good
chance that your web pages will appear at the top of search engine
queries for your selected keywords and key phrases.
2) Can We Do This Ourselves?
Answer
Theoretically you can. Realistically you won't. Most companies
choose to outsource because too much time and attention is
required to excel in this dynamic environment. In addition, the
expenses of adding new personnel and resources quickly outweigh
the cost of outsourcing.
3)
Which Web sites are not optimized/submitted by Asia Engine?
Answer
We do not optimize/ submit Mirror site, illegal site web site
containing or linking to illegal content. Sites consisting of
nothing but links to affiliate programs will not be accepted.
4) Should we consider your services before we launch our site?
Answer
Yes, it can be most advantageous. Designers are mostly
concerned with the aesthetics of your site, and may not be aware
of search engine protocols. To ensure your site is "search
engine friendly" prior to going "live" it is best
to integrate our services.
5)
How do we get started?
Answer

quote. We will contact you to determine a level of service and
send your complete quote package via email 2-day delivery. With
your signature and approval the campaign process will be off the
ground within a week.
6) How much does a search engine optimization campaign cost?
Answer
The cost of a search engine optimization campaign depends upon

the number of keywords you want your site to be optimized for. Our
SEO campaigns begin at as low as 12000 Bhat, We suggest that you

7) What if I have more than one web site?
Answer
Each site is treated as an individual project having its own
design and set up, submission process and reporting.
8) How do you implement search engine optimization?

techniques to optimize web sites. We emphasize customized Title
and Meta Tags, theme-based optimization, content, proper linkage,
and keyword research.

10) When will I see results?
Answer

keywords, the previous success of your Web site, and subject to
the engines updating their data, you may see minor results in 30
days with more significant frequency of top 10 and 20 rankings
within approximately three to four months.
11) Do you offer any guarantees?

AT LEAST ONE of the TOP 20 positions in at least six of the TOP 15
Search Engines depends on your package within 90-120 days of our
beginning your service, or your money back.
*This GUARANTEE is on the Standard and
Premium Submission only.
12) Do you create doorway pages?
Answer Since all of the search engines consider doorway pages to be
spam, we do NOT create doorway pages. We create Information Pages,
which are designed and written primarily to benefit your target
audience who find your site via the search engines and
directories. It's true that in the past you could often get away
with such techniques, although they were always considered spam.
These days, you might still get away with it for a while; however,
there's a good chance that you'll eventually get caught. Once you
do, your doorway domain as well as your main site stands a chance
of being penalized or even banned. These sneaky doorway domain
techniques have become so prevalent over the years that the search
engines (especially Google) are really starting to crack down on
it. It doesn't matter if your doorway domain has totally different
content from your main site. The content of an *extra* domain is
not considered to be unique, and would be classified as spam by
nearly every engine.
13) What are the main items required by you prior to website
optimization?
Answer
We will need a list of priority keywords and keyword phrases
relative to the overall theme of the web site, with the help of
which we perform thorough search engine keyword analysis and
research.
We will need 25 word descriptions for each optimized page and each
description should coincide with the keyword phrase that we are
optimizing for.
We will need complete company information.
We will need FTP access to your hosting server so that we can
upload pages. Note: Before we make any changes, we always download
a backup copy of your existing web site just in case! We also need
your permission to clean up any things that we may see on your
current site during our optimization that may help to improve your
rankings. This applies mainly to your current home page and main
framed sections if applicable.
When providing access to the site, it is suggested that you set up
a new user account with the following information:
username: *******
password: *******
This way you'll be able to record what type of activity that we
have on the server during this process. We have used the clients'
username and password in the past but then you cannot track our
activities.
Ps: In case you are unable to provide the user name and password,
we will be sending you the optimized pages by email, and will need
to be in constant touch with your webmaster, so as to help in
setting the pages and other tasks.
Make sure that no one performs any submissions or registrations to
the search engines or directories
14)
What are the changes to be made on my Web site, and who's
responsible for those changes? Are they extensive?
Answer
The changes are generally easy to implement and remain the
quickest, and most reliable for becoming "search engine
friendly". Visible text copy on their current Web site will
"have to" change in order to achieve maximum success.
Your Webmaster and/or your technical staff will be able to make
our suggested changes with little effort, and the appearance of
your Web site will remain the same.
15) Will I get to pick my own keywords?
Answer
Your final approval is required prior to the start of your
campaign. However, our technical staff will make suggestions based
on research and evaluation of keywords from your industry and Web
site.
16) How can I determine how my current site ranks?
Answer
You can go to search engines and type your key words and view
how your site ranks. If you prefer, we will run a free,
no-obligation search engine analysis of your site's rankings based
upon up to five phrases. Our Web Maintenance Plans include status
reports that list your rankings and your progress.
17) What type of a support will we get?
Answer
Our Director, an Account Manager are available to our clients
Monday through Friday during normal business hours.We are a one to
one customer service company. We support all phases of your SEO
campaign.
18) What is the minimum duration of a typical campaign?
Answer
Typically a search engine optimization campaign runs for a
minimum of 3 months. In the first month we optimize the site and
submit it, then in subsequent two months we monitor the site and
make sure it is crawled and ranked higher by all the search
engines we submit to.
19) What Happens During the Term of the Program?
Answer
Our submission and optimization program is ongoing. During the
span of your campaign, we continue to boost and maintain your
visibility within the search engines.
20) Do You Provide Reporting?
Answer
Yes, throughout the course of the entire program each client
has an Account Specialist who is responsible for reporting the
status of each campaign. These reports include key program data
such as position rankings and amount of traffic generated,
visitors referred to your site by search engines, which keyword
they used to locate your site, the path followed by them, which
search engine is getting you most traffic and more. Position
reports are typically e-mailed to clients on a fortnightly basis.
Traffic data information is real-time and can also be accessed at
any time by the client.
21) What happens if I do not continue with a search engine
maintenance and submission plan?
Answer
To maintain quality search results, search engines frequently
change their ranking algorithms. The continuous changes prevent
hucksters and unsavory sites from appearing in searches in which
they do not belong. If you do not pay attention to the changes,
your site will gradually decline in the rankings. It goes without
saying that if your competition does pay attention, their rankings
will improve.
Another consideration is the fact that search engines are growing
rapidly. Sites periodically disappear from search engine listings.
Unfortunately, it takes time to get back into a search engine once
the site disappears. A search engine maintenance plan with a
reliable Web consulting firm will insure that your site is
monitored and optimized for current search engine algorithms. You
are welcome to review our Web Maintenance Plans.
22) I am a Webmaster. Can you help my clients?
Answer
Many of our clients are Webmasters who wish to help their
clients. Few Webmasters and general technology consultants have
the time nor experience to work with search engine optimization /
promotion and keep up with the frequent changes that search
engines make to their algorithms. We have referral and reseller
programs. We will commit in writing not to become involved in the
Web design portion of your client's requirements.
We charge a lower price but offer more. Also, we monitor your site
for 2 months after the initial work, without any monthly fees.
We do keyword research for you so that you will not target the
wrong keywords.
In addition, we identify any problematic HTML codes in your web
site and advise you how to correct the problems. As a result, your
web site can be cleaner and can rank higher in major search
engines.
Also, we offer business advice for you to improve sales conversion
ratio. Our competitors do not help you to make more money.
We use ethical techniques. We don't use spamming, cloaking,
doorway pages and other techniques unwelcomed by major search
engines.
Unlike our competitors, we won't need you to register a new domain
name and store at our server. Our competitors do this because they
can force you to join their monthly maintenance plan or else you
lose all your work.
