How will Look Sharp Designs' search engine marketing services benefit
you and your business?
- Visibility - when people want to find something on the Internet,
more often than not they turn to the search engines. Over time our
search engine marketing services will increase your web site's visibility
in the search engines.
- Spider friendly - in order for your site to be more visible, the
search engines must be able to crawl your pages. We'll ensure that
they can do so.
- Increased traffic - greater visibility in the search engines should
translate into more people visiting your site.
- Increase sales (or whatever your parameter for success may be) -
more traffic should translate into more sales and increased revenues
and profits.
- Spam protection - we know what the various search engines consider
to be spam. We don't use these techniques so you won't be penalized
or banned.

Marketing is Important" for more detailed information.

Complete search engine marketing package - starting at $750
Services include:
- Review of your traffic logs to see from which search engines you
are currently receiving traffic and to see which keywords visitors
are using in those search engines to find your site.
- Thorough keyword research and recommendations - you receive the
same report that we use to make our recommendations. Up to 100 keywords
will be researched and included on the report (Excel format).
- Complete optimization of the site with up to 10 keywords,* no more
than two per page. This includes (as required or necessary):
- Optimization will be done on duplicate pages and will not be
uploaded without approval of the client.
- Rewrite of the title, meta tags, and page content as necessary
to ensure that keywords are included, and to create titles and
descriptions that will hopefully compel searchers to click on
your search engine listings.
- Possible removal of styles and JavaScript to external files
to facilitate search engine crawling and faster download times.
Faster download times will ensure that search engine spiders visit
your site, plus keep you from losing potential visitors because
the site loads to slowly.
- Addition of keywords into image tags alt text.
- Addition of text navigation links to facilitate search engine
crawling, as necessary.
- Creation of a site map, linked to all pages, which will facilitate
spider crawling, increase the chances of your pages being found

by us.

UNIQUE Pricing for search engine marketing maintenance service
We offer a unique pricing structure for our search engine marketing
service. We don't think you will find another company offering this
type of pricing for a maintenance service. How it works:
It doesn't make sense to re-optimize pages until they have been indexed
by the search engines. Indexing can take three months (or longer). This
is why we will not re-optimize pages for the first three months after
submission to the search engines. We don't feel it's fair to you to
pay us the full fee for a maintenance service during this time knowing
that we won't be doing anything but monitoring the search engines for
you and supplying you with a monthly report. So, you pay just for the
monthly report for the first three months, $100 per month. Starting
with the fourth month, you pay the full rate for the maintenance service,
$350 per month. Recap:
- $100 per month for the first three months after initial optimization
and submissions.
- $350 per month starting with the fourth month after initial optimization
and submissions.
- Month-to-Month - No contract. 30 days written (mail, fax or e-mail)
notice required for cancellation of service. Must pay for final 30
days of service, prorated if cancellation is received in the middle
of the month.
- 6-Month Contract - Receive 1st month FREE! SAVE $100! Payable in
advance quarterly installments - 1st installment is $200, 2nd installment
is $1050. 30 days written (mail, fax or e-mail) notice required for
cancellation of service***. Unpaid balances are are due upon notification
of cancellation.
- 12-Month Contract - Receive 1st three months FREE! SAVE $300! Payable
in advance quarterly installments - 1st installment is $0, 2nd installment
is $1050, 3rd installment is $1050, 4th installment is $1050. 30 days
written (mail, fax or e-mail) notice required for cancellation of
service***. Unpaid balances are are due upon notification of cancellation.
*** If you cancel a 6-month or 12-month contract, you are still must
pay for the remainder of the contract, like you would for an auto or
apartment lease. If you refuse, you will be in breach of contract, and
we will have the legal right to send you to a collection agency or take
legal action in a court of law.
Again, we don't think you will find this type of pricing for search
engine marketing maintenance services from any other search engine marketing
company! They all think you should pay them full price for doing next
to nothing immediately after the initial optimization and submission
process!
We only perform search engine marketing for a limited number of clients
in each industry or market to ensure that we can obtain the desired
results for each client. Contact us before
your industry is full!
