Search Engine Optimisation Process
The name "search engine optimisation" is often shortened to SEO.
The SEO Process
Search engine optimisation is a two stage process. The first stage is planning. This generally involves the identification of SEO objectives, and analysis of the current SEO situation.
Following the planning stage, comes implementation, where the plans are put into action. Actions might include recoding the site, rewriting content or sourcing links as well as other more subtle actions.
Why Not Use Submission Tools?
Search engine optimisation tools that submit your site automatically contravene the terms and conditions of Google and other search engines. Many are especially strict about the use of such software, and its use is likely to cause your site to incur web ranking penalties during the time that you use it. Such penalties usually expire over time if you stop using the software. Often, automated submissions are ignored, making the software entirely pointless.
Here at WebOptimisation.org, we do not use any automated software to submit your site.

Helping you Understand SEO
We understand that if we use SEO jargon, that doesn't help you understand. At the same time, we want to show you that we don't hide behind the web optimsiation jargon - we understand the issues. That's why we have included a helpful search engine optimisation glossary on our website. Wherever you site a link like this one, you'll find your way to our online glossary.
Empirical Search Engine Optimisation
Unlike many of our competitors, our knowledge is based on scientific research of search engines and the web, not on following other people's opinions in forums and newsgroups.
This, coupled with our strong web programming background, enables us to understand what a search engine is really doing, meaning we don't have to resort to worrying about inaccurate conjecture and hearsay.
Web Site Optimisation for UK Search Engines
It makes no difference whether you are looking for web site optimisation in Scotland, England, Wales or Northern Ireland - each part of the UK should optimise web sites for the major UK search engines. Ensuring accurate localisation within your own web site, such as including your business address, is just the start for being effective in localising your web site optimisation.

UK Search Engine Results
If you run a business in the UK, then SEO for you should be all about UK search engine results. All major search engines in the UK allow users to filter search results by the country of origin (at least into UK search engine results or global search results).
This means that if you want to sell from within the UK to a primarily UK market, you have to be recognised by search engines as being in the UK. We can help you ensure that this is the case.
