Virtual Viewing e-marketing: search engine optimisation
In an advertising arena where a 2% follow up rate is a mark of success, Virtual Viewing has created campaigns that have generated clickthrough rates on sponsored links of over 17% and generated thousands of additional web site visits. Read on to find out more.
There are many approaches to one of web development’s holy grails –a good search engine ranking. We always follow best practices that assist our customers in this – such as encouraging plain language that clearly and accurately describes the products and services, and reflecting key words in headings and page titles.
But the web is a crowded marketplace where the earlier tricks learnt by web developers to achieve high rankings no longer bear fruit. The major search engines now place increasing weighting on factors outside our control – including the number of external links into a website (as an indicator of the value placed on it by others).
Virtual Viewing also therefore now work with customers to set up ‘pay-per-click’ advertising campaigns – the creation of sponsored, targeted links with high visibility in the major search engines results listings.
We work with customers to:
- research the words and phrases their customers use most frequently when searching for their products and services
- research the cost-effectiveness of these terms in the respective pay-per-click advertising systems and provide recommendations for particular phrases and optimum price per click
- compose advertising copy for each sponsored link
- establish the online campaign, providing initial subsequent reports on campaign take-up and clickthrough rates.

“The biggest thing Virtual Viewing has done for us was sort out our search engine placements. Virtual Viewing did make our web site too but business really took off when they took charge of getting us in the top results. It worked a treat! Fantastic.”
