| If I choose Visual Lyrics to be my Search Engine Specialist, or Website Manager, will I have to give you access to our website? |
 | Yes. For us to make the changes to the code on the site and to upload data to the server, we will require FTP access to the web pages and the image folders on the server. |
| There are thousands of Search Engine Specialist and Web Designers out there, why should I choose Visual Lyrics Media Group to handle my Internet advertising and Search Engine Optimization? |
| | Because we do things differently. For example, VisualLyrics.com has more combined text and image first page positions than any wedding professional or florist in the state of Texas. Its links cross over a dozen or more industries, including wedding photographers, wedding venues, chapels, musicians, and many others. Additionally, the Google links cross numerous cities within Texas as well as nationally and internationally. No other SEO Specialist has done that for any of our competitors in that market. We believe this to be excellent evidence that we know what we are doing, and should be your first choice when choosing a SEO or Website Manager. You cannot go wrong by having Visual Lyrics Media Group on your team. |
| My company has an IT guy that designed our webbsite and does ok on the search engines. Why should I pay someone outside my company to optimize my website? |
| | The short answer is this: We DOMINATE the search engines around the World, and rank in the Top 1% of their respective industries. If your IT Guy has that, then you are in good hands. If not, then we can assist you by dominating the search engines with your business. |
| Must I host my website with Visual Lyrics to use the Search Engine Optimization services? |
| | No. We can optimize any website to perform well on the Search Engines simply by adding coded content to the page. All we will need to perform the website optimization is a password to log into the website control panel and to edit the pages. |
| I already have a website but it does not do well on Google. Can Visual Lyrics Media Group actually dominate the seach engines with it? |
| | Unless your site has been involved with porn or gambling, or unless you have been blacklisted because of "Black Hat" tricks on your website, there is no reason why any website cannot be found on the first page, if designed by SEO professionals like Visual Lyrics Media Group. |
| I live in Santa Barbara California. Is it possible for a Texas Company to design, optimize and manage my website without all sorts of hassles with communication? |
| | Absolutely. Because we work in a digital world, it does not matter where you are, or where your website is hosted for us to design, optimize, and manage your website. We can communicate through Email, FAX, Telephone, or through the website itself, if we have designed it. |
| I have noticed Visual Lyrics Media Group websites hold many positions on Google Images. I have never considered using images for search. Why should anyone use Google or Yahoo Images to search for products or services. |
| | Millions of Google and Yahoo searchers use the Images to search the internet because as the old saying goes: a picture is worth 1000 words. Because a well designed image can appear unique, it can draw only those who are interested in it to the link. |
| I have spoken with other SEO Specialist who have guaranteed us a TOP 10 ranking for at least one of our search terms. Does Visual Lyrics Media Group have a guarantee this good or better? |
| | Our programs are focused on SEARCH ENGINE DOMINATION. Including both text and images, you can expect many links attached to the first page results. No assurance can be given as to how many first page links you will have, however we will use the same method to optimize your website as we used to achieve our own success on the search engines. If we are as successful with your website as we are with our current clients, you should expect dozens of 1st page positions, if not more. Some will be in the text searches and some will be in the image searches. |
| What about email campaigns and newsletter campaigns? Do you offer those services? |
| | No. We focus on Search Engine Domination, and do not offer such services. We believe that being found when the buyer of your products or services is looking for you, ensures that every contact made to you is by a serious client or customer. We believe a motivated buyer will click on your link if it appears where and when they are searching for your services or products. When successful, email and newsletter campaigns become far less necessary. |
| Is there any way to get a position in the Sponsored Area on the first page of the major search engines for a long term without using Pay-Per-Click? |
| | Yes. We can provide sponsored positions on the first page of Google, Yahoo, MSN, and AOL on a one year contract for a fixed price. Prices vary depending on the search phrase desired and the number of competing links for that phrase. However, unless you are competitinng in a national or international market, such a position is totally unnecessary if Visual Lyrics Media Group is managing your Search Engine Placement Program. |
| What about link building and link exchange programs I have heard about? Does Visual Lyrics Media Group offer or recommend this type of service? |
| | The larger your market, the more important link building, or as sometimes called, link exchanges, can become. We recommend exchanging links only with reputable companies who actually offer your clients products or services. At this time Visual Lyrics Media Group does not offer a link exchange service since we have continually achieved first page results without them. |
| I have used Pay-Per-Click with limited or unknown success. Do you offer or recommend pay-per-click campaigns? |
| | Pay-per-click advertising serves a very valid and useful purpose if your goals are in short term sales, or marketing. For example, if your desire is to be found on the first page of Google, Yahoo, or MSN, for a holiday sale which is coming up within a week or so, then pay-per-click is an effective means of getting your website found. Visual Lyrics Media Group can manage any pay-per-click campaigns you want to run at a reasonable cost, however our methods are generally geared more toward long term, first page presence. This isn't achieved by pay-per-click campaigns. |
| What happens if my competitors have a strong SEO management program that later overtakes my position? |
| | It is reasonable to believe that any serious competitor in the market will have their website managed and will be continually battling to stay on top. Once your site is indexed for a given phrase, it will generally remain there for the life of your website as long as the code is not removed or altered. However, a strong competitor could eventually push you down the list if you do not have an equally, or superior SEO program. Visual Lyrics Media Group can keep you at or near the top with such a program. |
| What about 'Gateway Pages"? Do these pages allow us to be found while keeping our Flash Website? |
| | Technically yes, they do. However, this still leaves you very limited in your ability to add content about your business that would give you a better search engine position. From a Professional Search Engine Optimization Specialist point of view, we believe the flash sites should be used for personal purposes and not for business. |
| We have a great looking Flash website but the search engines do not seem to find it very well. No matter what we do we still cannot get our site to come up when searching our industry. Does Visual Lyrics Media Group recommend this type of website? |
| | It's true that Flash websites can look very professional and "high tech" and often look better than a standard html web page, however they are severely limited in their search engine potential. Also, to make them more search engine friendly requires a great deal of time and technical skill and as a result are very expensive to maintain. As a premier SEO Specialist, Visual Lyrics Media Group does not generally recommend a full flash website for marketing purposes. If you desire flash on your website, we recommend a flash intro header, and smaller flash files embedded within the website. A flash header gives your website a great appearence, yet allows for proper Search Engine Optimization. Being on the search engines in all the right places is essential to a successful website and search engine presence, while having a flash website is not. |
| I have heard about WEB 2.0 and wonder how this may effect my search engine position. Can you give any clues as to how this may interfere or help with my position? |
| | Web 2.0 is a new generation of internet designed to be more interactive and less static. This includes publications of more user interactive sites such as YouTube, where visitors upload videos, music, and other content. Essentially Web 2.0 is more "real world" and up to date, though some speculate it could create huge amounts of unreliable information. Basically, Web 2.0 does not alter the SEO process except that it brings with it much more traffic and content that the SEO Specialist must incorporate into his or her programs. Whatever the effect, everyone is on a level playing field and should not put you at any disadvantage, and likely will create a larger market for your website to reach. |
| Does the Visual Lyrics Media Group search optimization work strictly with one search engine or another? |
| | No. Our optimization process works for most of the major search engines such as Google, Yahoo, MSN, and others. Each search engine will handle the information in a slightly different way but the process is effective for most, if not all of them. We are organic search specialist and make it easy for the search engines to spider your site. |
| How long will it take to complete the Local Search Engine Domination package being offered here? |
| | Each market and website is different in terms of market size, number of competing links, and so fourth. Generally it will take us 30-60 days to complete the work on your Website. Within this time you should begin to see your website rise on the search engines. |
| How long will I have your company's services? |
| | Our contract states that Visual Lyrics Media Group will work for you until your website has achieved Market Domination. Technically this means that we will surpass your competitor's position on the search engines in respect to total links on the search engines. After your Website has achieved this ranking, our services shall be considered complete. |
| I have heard of SEO companies who use hidden text and other such things on a website to gain top rankings. Does Visual Lyrics Media Group recommend this? |
| | No. Such methods are against most search engine terms of service and will usually get your site removed from the search engine. These tactics are often called " black hat " tactics and as the name implies, they are "the bad guys". Visual Lyrics Media Group considers these tactics to be very poor at generating actual clients or customers. As a result, we do not use, nor recommend to anyone the use of such methods. Hidden words are obviously an effort to manipulate the system rather than relay information to the viewer. Our advice is never use them. |
| My photography website has many photos and images and not much text or content. Is it possible to get high rankings with so little content on my pages? |
| | Yes. By using the "Image Search" function of the major search engines a viewer can easily find your website, assuming you have contracted Visual Lyrics Media Group to manage your Search Optimization program. For example, Visual Lyrics Media Group is listed in the number one Google Image positions for "Search Engine Optimization Specialist", "Texas Search Engine Optimization Specialist", "Austin Texas Search Engine Optimization Specialist", "Round Rock Texas Search Engine Optimization Specialist", "Georgetown Texas Search Engine Optimization Specialist", and "Cedar Park Texas Search Engine Optimization Specialist" and these are just a few of thousands of 1st page Image positions we hold for ourselves and our clients. Google Image Search has continually experienced substantial growth in the Image Searches each year since incorporation into the system. We highly recommend using the image search for anyone looking for goods and services on the internet, and strongly suggest that your business take advantage of it. |
| Does Visual Lyrics Media Group guarantee that my website achieves a higher ranking in every search phrase than my competitors? |
| | Unfortunately it is impossible to guarantee any certain position on the search engine since the search results are directly related, in part, to the total number of data bases used by the search engines. We cannot guarantee you that your site will be positioned above your competitors in any given search phrase, however we do guarantee that you have more first page image or text positions than your competitors in your local area. |
| What assurance do I have that my Website will appear as often as you say it will? |
| | We can make no assurance that your Website will out perform every Website on the internet in terms of Search Engines. However we can assure you that we will use the same methods to achieve top rankings on your Website that we used to achieve our own success. Currently we have one Website with over 1030 links attached to 1st page Google results. Another example can be seen by searching Yahoo for "Texas Search Engine Domination" where THREE of our websites appear in the top 10, including the 1st, 3rd, & 9th positions out of 930,000 competing links. There is every reason to believe we can position every one of your search phrases in the top listings either within the text results or the images. |
| Why do you use the phrase "Search Engine Domination" when describing these services? |
| | Because we optimize your site unlike other SEO Specialist, your site is found over a much broader spectrum of the search engine. More important, we use every possible search phrase necessary to dominate your market with your links. As a result, your site will appear more times than any other competing website in your local market. We guarantee it and will work until it does. Very few Websites dominate their markets and yours will be among them. |
| Are these temporary positions on the search engines? |
| | No. Our optimization places your text or images on the search engines in a Natural-unpaid position on Google. Your link should appear in these search phrases for the life of your website as long as the code is not altered or removed. However your actual page position may rise and fall depending on several factors related to the number of competitors and data bases accessed at any given time through the Google network. |
