"I
just want to recommend Cathy Wagner in the highest
terms possible. She has helped me with several
techno-glitches I've had and "issues" to my
getting the word out about some of the things
I'm doing. Cathy is sharp, on the ball, fast,
speaks English rather than "Techno-geek" and
is a dream to work with. I recommend her highly
for pretty much anything she does."

I have SEO
issues. More like, It's just not very easy to do and I never really know
if I've done it correctly or if I've done all that I need to do to drive
targeted traffic to my site. I get traffic because I have an Adwords campaign,
but I don't want to rely totally on paid advertising if I can generate
some traffic via search engines. There's some, but I just don't quite
get the whole Google thing. I never know where I am with them. From what
I've read neither do alot of website publishers.
Search
engine optimization is a big topic, some people have based an entire career
on studying search engines and how to get better ranking. So, my comments
below in no way constitute a complete answer, but I think they cover the
basics.
You need
meta-tags. Today, some people say keyword meta-tags aren't as important
as they once were, but I still use them. Some search engines still look
at them and it's a good way to focus and decide what your keywords should
be. Here's a great
tool if you need help choosing the specific keywords that people actually
use in searches.
You need
keywords in your text. This is very important. The number of times a particular
keyword appears in your text tells a search engine how thoroughly your
site covers this topic. Here is a good
tool to check the "keyword density" of your web site text.
You need
links to your site from other sites. This is also very important, but
don't rush right out and try to get your link on every site you see. The
links that will really do you good are those that are on related sites.
I've also found a URL in the resource box of an article that gets published
on a variety of sites can greatly improve "link popularity" (which is
the term search engines use to measure how many site link to you.) Here's
a tool
to measure link popularity.
Another
factor in search engine ranking is time. Once you've done what you can,
keep an eye out for linking opportunities and wait. In the meantime, there's
plenty of other ways to market your site, too.
