SEO will not die. It is; however, evolving as technology is evolving. It will be around in some form without any worry of disappearing anytime soon. There have already been some businesses who have begun to implement other SEO changes on order to compensate for the still popular method of using long-tail kite SEO phrases.
Businesses depend on SEO in London too much for SEO to disappear
Businesses need SEO in order to attract customers attention.

Business owners can introduce customers to products without even giving any sales pitch and still effectively use targeted keywords. This may make customers feel more at ease because they do not feel pressured to buy and business owners can still advertise using the right keywords without seemly as though they are advertising using SEO.
This encourages customers to try new products and look at new services being offered with pressure to buy. This also allows business owners time to fine-tune their soft sales approaches to new generations of savvy shoppers who arent looking at the bottom line price of any SEO package.

The search engine has definitely evolved since I began work as an SEO more than ten years ago – we’re talking when Google was still in beta. Every year I worked in this business, I took the first few days of January to reflect on what worked and what didn’t in the previous year, and set my goals from there. Because I have clients across various industries and businesses, my strategy will clearly differ from that of the in-house SEO agent working for the visibility of his company.

Many sites on the web are amazing – a real tribute to their designers. Many of these are attractive, functional and compelling for visitors. But look a little deeper and we see a consistent problem with search engine ranking possibilities across many sites. The snazzy site’s creators are good at their job. Their job is site creation. They also generally think they understand site prioritisation but screw up their clients SEO such that the search engine optimisation effort is multiplied through re-work and necessary architectural changes. The main issues are URL manipulation, duplicate content and a serious downside of popular shopping cart software products. Related issues are potentially endless, particularly with future site changes/overhauls and their abandoned URL’s that have desirable search engine clout. The Cause Leading to the Effect. Since people in business generally have a skill base that doesn’t include web site design, they dip into the sizable pool of inexpensive web creator talent around. They’ve heard of SEO, but their chosen web design company who produce dazzling samples of work along with shopping carts say they will create the site in line with SEO principles. Great! Once producing a great looking site that works superbly, works with the shopping cart, demonstrably has customers going through the shopping cart and parting with their funds, has products easy to add and subtract through an external interface with the database – the customer is pleased and pays the bill after agreeing the ongoing fee structure with amendments and changes. And start a PPC campaign. And realise that the cost of the PPC campaign is about the same as their premises rental at their high street but with a huge cost increase at Christmas time. And realise that now they have two landlords – their High St premises owner and Google (and/or Yahoo, MSN, etc-). Or, they realise that whilst they thought that with their new online company the web would be free, they, like their real estate counterparts, have an expensive landlord of the search masters, led by the -benevolent’ Google. But no matter – just have to wait a while until the organic results show their site highly through the efforts of those clever people that created this great site – just wait a few weeks- months- years. Here’s why it’s going to be years- decades… never. And here’s how to make it, realistically, a few months.
Unfriendly URL. The URL problem is not limited to the use of shopping cart software like OS Commerce and others that make use of session ID’s, although they are default offenders. Some web design companies compound the problem with the use of session ID’s apart from their shopping cart software, or use -cart created’ session ID’s throughout their design. Session ID’s are a handy means of keeping state and identity across several pages for a particular user’s sequence of pages within the domain per session. The main fully featured shopping cart – OS Commerce – which is free and hence attractive – appends a session ID to every page. The ID is unique to every user session (so if the user closes the browser and re-starts a session on a site the ID will be different). See an example of this with naturalfigures(dot)co(dot)uk. Go to any category and see the session ID appended. Now close the browser and open the same URL again – note that the session ID has changed for the same pages selected. What’s the problem with this? When the Google bot or any other SE’s bot comes along to examine the page – it sees the page with appended session ID and indexes the page. Then the next time it visits the page it lands on the same page and sees the same content, but this time for a different apparent URL – which is the same URL with a different session ID appended. What’s this? Duplicate content! Most web designers have little understanding of why this would ever be a problem.
A similar issue of duplicate content exists with the way that most web designers have internal links to some start file like index.htm. Back to the home page? Go to thedomain/index.htm. But this is the same content as thedomain.com. But there-s more. Not only are these pages the same, but also http://thedomain and http://www.thedomain are also the same content. To demonstrate the SE’s viewing this as different, try it with xe(dot)com and note the different PageRank scores. It’s easy to fix these problems, it’s just that web designers are generally oblivious to the problem.
Site Redesigns, Wasted Pages. Occasionally, like your living room, the site needs an overhaul. Or it could be that some web designer believes that the way to higher ranking for their client is to redesign the site because they’ve heard that page names should have hyphens, not underscores, or that page names shouldn’t have hyphens but should have underscores (it doesn’t matter a hoot). In the redesign – many web designers destroy any search engine clout currently enjoyed and end up with a negative affect for the site. Oh well. At least it looks much nicer after the redesign.
What are web designers missing? As SE’s traverse a page they analyse it and index it assuming it doesn’t offend them in some way (cloaking, dup content, redirects defined in the wrong way, etc.). It’s indexed. Got that? Indexed. That is, the page – referred to by its URL – now exists in some database patrolled by Google’s armed guards. When web designers change a site design and invent new page names without properly redirecting from the old page, Google see another shiny new page – note that it has exactly the same content as another on the same domain they already have indexed – and index the new page too. Only now the site is devalued in the eyes of the search engine because it clearly duplicates content. This is not anywhere near as serious as duplicate content across distinct domains, but is still a red flag when seen within a domain. But wait – it’s not duplicate content! The old page has been changed – sure – it still exists because there may be external links to it – but there are no internal links to the page – it’s been replaced by the new page. But did anyone tell Google about that? What?! How do you tell Google about anything? By a properly defined 301 redirect in the htaccess file. Hmmm. Try that on your web designer – if there’s the slightest questioning lift of eyebrows – run. But the problem doesn’t end there; since this is now a new page, it doesn’t have the establishment of the old page. The SE doesn’t know it’s a replacement, it just thinks it’s a new page, something that has to earn it’s place through time and new internal and external links. The htaccess 301 redirect resolves all this.
The Solution. A popular web presence is no longer the breeze it used to be. Everyone flocks to the web – but how do the SE’s sort out the wheat from the chaff? The solution to this and much more is the design of pages from the start with SEO principles in mind. But this has become a buzz-phrase. The web designers need to understand how search engines see pages as well as how humans see pages. Let’s face it – if SEO’s designed all the web sites it wouldn’t be pretty. Both skills are needed. For proof of this see the site cited in the bio box for this article – as site which to prove an SEO point is distinctively un-pretty. But the SEO’s have the upper hand. They know they aren’t designers and they know they need clever artistic designers to build something that is not just functional but also attractive. The converse is not generally true. Web designers in general don’t really understand search engine optimisation – despite their sales people’s sale oriented claims. They think they know the SEO science.
We’ve yet to find a web designer who does.

In addition to providing content thats attention-getting and sales-oriented; a modern copywriter can also give you a fresh perspective on your companys image and provide helpful feedback about how they interact with your site.
Its rather difficult to generate objectivity about your copy if you are writing for your own website. However, you can go it alone, just be careful you dont make these five common mistakes.
1. Your homepage looks like a content disaster zone.
Words are everywhere, from the top navigation to way past the fold. Worst of all, a visitor has to read everything to figure out where to go next. Do a little research into SEO instead of stuffing your homepage with keywords. Ask yourself what you would want to see first when you visit your own site. This will give you a clue about what others want to see, too.
2. Your use (and abuse) of the exclamation point is alarming.
Adding multiple exclamation points is unnecessary. Limit yourself to one exclamation point per sentence. Trust us, you dont want your site to look like a teenagers text message. If you use exclamation points everywhere, you are defeating the purpose of calling attention to something specific. Instead you are rendering the highlighted points useless.
3. You didnt proofread your work
Big mistake. Even if you think youve got it written perfectly, you have to read through what youve written before you publish. Its not professional when theres a mistake in your copy, especially when customers are considering buying your product or service. Mistakes make you look sloppy and careless.
4. You like to overuse the ellipsis.
What is an ellipsis or ellipses? It those little dots after words or phrases that signal something has been omitted that the reader can infer. Remember the rule of three when it comes to the ellipsis (singular) or ellipses (plural). Generally, ellipses should only come in sets of three (not four, not ten). Most people writing web copy wont encounter a situation that requires a more complicated use of ellipses.
5. You dont have any copy on your site.
Ok, so this is an obvious one, but we had to mention it. So many sites attempt to sell a product, but dont provide copy to describe it. If youre going to have a website, you need to be able to update it with content to both help visitors and search engines find your website (for SEO). Dont write very well and have no idea what SEO is? Hire a copywriter. If not, do your best to at least provide simple, error-free information about your product or service.
