Exeter and Devon SEO Efforts Must Match the Growing Mobile Dominance


Mobile overtaking desktop has been predicted and anticipated again and again in the recent years, and this confirmation only solidifies the fact that Devon SEO efforts should allocate significant attention to targeting mobile devices. In Google’s statement, it was not stated which were the ten countries the company was talking about except saying that United States and Japan are among them. However, there are reports that mobile device usage in the United Kingdom has overtaken PC use last April. This makes it likely that the U.K. is also among the nations that Google alluded to.

Why Does SEO Change So Much?

Why do you need search engine optimization (SEO) experts at all? Why is it that what was true just a year ago is now redundant or inapplicable? Why do people have to train and re-train in SEO?

The primary reason is Google. It is the biggest and most widely used search engine on the Internet and it dictates the rules of SEO. Other search engines may have their own set of rules and guidelines, but so many webmasters work to gain higher rankings on the Google search engine that other search engines simply have to fall in line.

How Google Places Can Help Attract Customers



Local businesses need to effectively target customers in their area in order to succeed. Small businesses in Devon, for example, will not benefit much from attracting clients who live in Edinburgh. One of the best ways to target those in your region is through Google Places.
What It Is

Google Places is a search facility that allows people to view businesses by location. It activates when someone specifically searches for geographic information using Google. Typing ‘Devon plumbers’ into the search bar would result in plumbing companies located in Devon to appear high on the Google listings.

Some Devon SEO Companies Share the Secrets of a Successful Website


The big question when creating a website should not be “What do I put in it?” but rather “How do I present myself/business?” Many people make the mistake of using their online database as an extension of their ad campaigns, making their websites look more like a brochure and less of a site. Keep in mind that the word “site” refers to locations for big things, like a building or an entire city. It SHOULD contain something that is important enough to warrant an entire space. In the same way, websites should be dynamic, interactive, and personality-driven.

Venturing into these platforms, however, isn’t an easy task since their purpose would be to generate traffic back to a business’ website and improve its sales simultaneously. With that in mind, here are a few very important tips on how to create informative, engaging and creative content in your chosen social media accounts.
  • Know your Market – Each social media platform caters to a specific user population. For instance, LinkedIn is for the career-driven adults looking for ways to further develop their careers while Pinterest contains images that serve as inspirations for designers, event organizers, etc.  
  • Content Planning – Businesses should use social media platforms to create engaging content related to their products and services, improve customer engagement and of course to boost publicity (e.g. likes/shares for Facebook and retweets for Twitter).
  • Supplementary Content – With relation to engaging content, adding images or videos may also be done, especially if the content can is rather lengthy and you need a way to hold reader attention. Enhancing your content with images and videos can further engage your followers and even help you reach a wider range of audiences.
