Effective Search Engine Optimisation For Fire & Security Websites

Most of the Fire & Security directors we speak to don’t know or care a lot about Search Engine Optimisation, commonly shortened to SEO. Here’s why you should be paying more attention.

When Google sends her users to your Fire & Security website, she needs to be certain that your pages will give the best and most relevant answers to their Fire & Security questions.

That’s the only way she can put your business on the front page of one of her search results.

For example: A local home owner searches on Google for burglar alarm installers in [your town] and you want your website to appear on the first page of the results.

Your website needs to have a page that gives lots of great information about burglar alarm installers in [your town]. 

It really is that simple.

SEO means Google-friendly pages that make it easy for her…

Many web designers will tell you to focus on the look and feel rather than the copy. Build it and they will come!

However, over a decade of experience with online marketing has shown us the importance of words – on both your website’s pages and blog posts. Google struggles to read images. So your website has to contain enough words for Google to work out what you do. And enough of the right words and phrases that match what her searches are typing into the search bar.

Only then can she match the searchers asking the questions with the answers on your website.

You can have the most expensive website in the world, but it’s useless if no one knows it is there.

What is Search Engine Optimisation?

SEO is search engine optimisation which means making sure the search engines can understand what a particular webpage is about so they can match it to their searchers’ questions.

For each page you need to:

1. Choose your keyword
2. Focus your content upon it
3. Optimise the page – give Google the right signals so she understands that the page is really about your keyword.
4. Be relevant, interesting and unique
5. Show your expertise

The last two items in the list are for humans. Optimised properly, Google will help them to find your website but it’s important to remember that you also have to answer the questions of those visitors. Make it a no-brainer for them to choose you as their supplier.

The results have been fantastic since optimising our website – one enquiry resulted in a project worth over £20,000. Sales Manager, Spy Alarms Ltd, Sevenoaks, Kent
