Savvy Content is a web marketing company specializing in original content, content submission, and link building services. They also have a bunch of great tips on how you can do some of your own marketing and link building.

The site is managed by a team of content creation and link building specialist. They do: article marketing, social media marketing, directory submissions, and press releases. It’s about getting backlinks by means of creating high quality content that people want to use, and link to. See their services in detail. They also just started a referral program. A task I have been avoiding myself for this sites usability analysis.

In regards to ordering it’s a simple PayPal payment, and a few questions about what you need. Prices were reasonable, most everything under $50. What I got out of the site the most, was found on their home page. It’s in a blog format, and you can find a bunch of articles on their methods, tips, and suggested ways that you can get links and market your site yourself. Free is nice, but if you don’t have the time, use a service. You should at least use a service to get things going. Submitting to directories manually could be a full time job with little results.

seovisionsThere are a ton of SEO companies out there, and if you are looking to market your site, I would strongly suggest talking to an SEO specialist first. SEO Visions is one of those companies, and here is their SEO consultant page.

The company has also taken the steps to become Yahoo Ambassador. If you are unfamiliar Yahoo’s Ambassador program, it basically shows that this company or person has taken the steps to learn all the functionality of Yahoo’s PPC services. You can then know it is a reasonably safe to use SEO Visions’ pay per click advertising service, and that your money will not be wasted.

SEO Sites and Their Help Pages

One of the best sources for SEO infomation is SEO sites. In an effort to convert customers they must educate them on the need first. Not everyone is a webmaster, and obviously the ones that need SEO the most understand nearly nothing about the topic. They are focused on business, not on how to build and market a website. So if you are new to the idea of optimizing your site, a great way to fast track your knowledge on the subject is to search for SEO companies, and look any articles they may have. SEO Visions had a ton of  seo tips and articles.

How many directories do you think your site is listed in? Can you say fifty? How about 150? Just building a website is simply not good enough. It has to be found, and you actually have to tell someone about it. Marketing stinks, but it’s the facts off life. Using a directory submission, like Submit2Please can make life a lot easier when it comes to improving your sites visibility.

submit2please

Imagine setting some free time for yourself, say one whole week, just submitting to directories, blogs, and bookmarks. How many could you do? One every five minutes? What’s that after forty hours? Using my calculator that comes to 480 places. For just $49.95 you could use Submit2Please services, and submit your site to 1,000 directories. Total time, five minutes. What’s your time worth? What would $50 worth of regular advertising on Google Adwords get you? Maybe 100 visitors? If you were on a 1,000 directories, and you only recieved 50 visitors a month from them, your talking just two months till you are out performing paid ads.

By outsourcing link building, you can save time, money, and quickly create a higher visibility of your site. When using Submit2Please you get a detailed report, a monthly progress report, and the ability to track your services online. They additionally have a great knowledge base of information about getting links, and marketing in general.
