When I type in the website http://dressmeupandshootme.com it comes
up. But everyone doesn’t know about us yet. I want it to come up
when people type in Photography in Kingsland GA.
Your home page has no text content. It may look like it does, but
graphic images of text are just bitmap images - no use as far as
search engine indexing is concerned. Use HTML text wherever possible.
You don’t appear to mention essential words much or at all in the
HTML text that does appear on your other pages. If you want to be
found for searches such as “photography in Kingsland GA” then you
must say that sort of thing in your HTML text!
Also, look at your page titles… “Who are we?” is extremely generic
and won’t help your search engine ranking in the slightest. Instead,
think about page titles such as:
“About us - Studio photography in Kingsland, Georgia - photographic
portrait sessions in our photo studio or your own home”
And make sure you include similar text (written for your human
visitors as well, of course) within the body of your page as well.
And be specific. The paragraph in that “who are we?” page that reads:
“We can even travel to any location for your big event! Near or far,
we will be there to capture those unforgettable moments of your life.
You name it, we can do it!”
…this wording is entirely non-specific and won’t help your ranking
in searches such as “wedding photographer in Kingsland”,
“Jacksonville pet photo service”, and so on. What ‘big events’ are
you thinking of? What unforgettable moments? If you want it to be
found then you have to name it in your site’s pages!
(Sure, Jacksonville isn’t where you are; it isn’t even the same
state. But at just 25 miles away it is the nearest city, so it could
figure in searches. Mentioning that you’re near there might help
catch more searches.)
See Be Found - design findable web sites that get ranked with the best for a primer on getting sites
found in search engines. It isn’t meant to be the ultimate reference,
but it should be a good starting point.
