Being in the top 3 listings on Google and Bing is more important than ever as search engine companies implement ways to make search faster. We craft and execute search engine optimization strategies that increase your bottom line. After all, having the #1 ranking for a term that doesn’t result in sales is just wasted glory. (We equate this to companies who are overjoyed to be on the cover of a magazine that none of their prospects read.)

What is the Long Tail and Why Does it Matter?
Many technology and healthcare marketing companies are offer a niche product or service aimed a well-defined audience. When it comes to search engine marketing, it doesn’t make financial sense to try to rank for generic terms even though they have high search volumes. In a 2008 report, Bill Tancer, general manager of global research at Hitwise, revealed that for any given topic, the top 100 keywords account for just 5.7% of all website traffic - while long tail keywords account for the remaining 94.3%!
Take for example a healthcare company offering electronic medical records software for dermatologists. Ranking for “software” or even “EMR software” would be very difficult, if nearly impossible, and not very targeted. However, a much better phrase on which to try to rank is “EMR software for dermatologists” – it will be easier to achieve higher search rankings and those visitors that click on the listing are much more likely to convert to paying customers.
