Comments on: 10 ways that SEO (website marketing) is like Sales http://www.sitelogicmarketing.com/blog/01-10ways-seo-likesales WebSite Marketing Consultants Tue, 02 Dec 2008 16:39:53 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.6.2 By: SirCommy http://www.sitelogicmarketing.com/blog/01-10ways-seo-likesales#comment-94103 SirCommy Wed, 12 Dec 2007 09:02:50 +0000 http://www.sitelogicmarketing.com/blog/01-10ways-seo-likesales#comment-94103 Ahh SEO and Sales. A strong but yet, a misunderstood strategy. Nowadays, people optimize their websites carelessly. They don’t care whether they get the proper interested visitors/customers, they just want them. So as you wisely mentioned, when one does a search on some specific keywords, he’d expect to find that in the websites he visits. People try to use the most searched keyword, when I prefer to use not so searched one, but content/product related ones. I’d rather get 5 buyers than 50 visitors that walk away at some point. Great 10 tips, they have been here for years actually, they’re even logical. But one needs experience, needs to meet these problems and solve them as they move along. It took me over 2 years to make the ‘first’ impression of a page or product so it can meet a visitor’s expectations so they can actually stay more than 2 seconds and maybe with interest, buy and browse.

Thanks, Dave. Yes, for some reason I can't get that image out of my mnd when someone says "sales". Asking questions is big - so big that I think I have another post specifically about that. HA!

I did love it at the time and believed in whatever I sold but like you I hate the "selling process". I also know who Herb Tarlek was, ouch! Great list, I would add, ask questions, oops you did that and that's why I responded. Good job, I'll buy. I also hate sales even though I was successful for years at it.
