ACCOUNT INFORMATION Domain: http://www.mermaidfoodstuff.com/ Contact Person: Contact Email: Company Phone: INTRODUCTION The purpose of this paper is to provide determination of http://www.mermaidfoodstuff.com/ current SEO tactics, a critical analysis of the current campaign and suggestions for improvement. Current performance of the website: The link building strategy is not effective to achieve SERP (Ranking) changes in a reasonable duration. Anchor text variation is not proper in the backlink profile. As a result, the website is not performing well in search engines. A quality link profile is comprised of links from forums, directories, social sites and others. We suggest: A larger pool of sources from where the links are being derived, especially press releases and getting high quality guest blog posts on sites like techcrunch.com and mashable.com which are high authority sites. There should be proper ratio of branded keywords, LSI keywords, variations and generic keywords so that the backlink profile looks more natural and make it more visible into the eyes of the search engines. You need to get timely PR and Social Media buzz to make the link building more natural, versatile and high quality. This report offers a detailed explanation of how we came to this conclusion. 3 P a g e
WEBSITE PERFORMANCE ANALYSIS Complimentary SEO Analysis & Proposal for http://www.mermaidfoodstuff.com/ ORGANIC OVERVIEW No Organic Keywords ranking in the search engines ADVERTISING OVERVIEW No Paid Keywords ranking in the search engines Indexed Pages: There are 223 results shown in the Google search results. ORGANIC KEYWORDS ONSITE SEO No Organic Keywords ranking in the top results of search engines. ONSITE ANALYSIS DOMAIN STATISTICS The domain http://www.mermaidfoodstuff.com/ has IP address 212.48.84.96 and is located in Nordrhein-westfalen. The domain s age is 2 years. Domain Authority is 1 and Page Authority is 1. Domain Authority - It is Moz's calculated metric for how well a given domain is likely to rank in Google's search results. Page Authority - It is Moz's calculated metric for how well a given webpage is likely to rank in Google's search results. ONSITE FACTORS Page Speed: The website is faster than 23% of all the tested sites. 4 P a g e
a) Load Time: The website load time is more (i.e. 6.55 seconds).ideally the web page should load within 2-3 seconds. b) Performance Grade: The website performance grade is 77/100. c) Page Size: The website page size is more i.e. 1.7MB. Ideally it should be less than 1 MB. NOTE: To optimize the page upload time on web, you need to reduce the size of the on-page elements like images, JS, CSS and the number of calls to the outside elements such as Facebook Like button, Twitter button, LinkedIn button, Google Plus button, etc. Meta Title: Meta Title is not fine. The current Meta Title length is 27 characters (with spaces).ideally it should be up to 60 characters (with spaces) and should be keyword optimized. Meta Description: Meta Description is not defined. Ideally Meta description has to be descriptive and keyword-rich, up to 160 characters. Meta Keywords: Meta Keywords are defined. Ideally there should be at least 3-4 Meta keywords defined for better SERP results. NOTE: Meta tags are important because the search engines read them to compare if the keywords and the descriptions are relating to the evident content. Headings Status: Your page doesn t contain H2 headings. These headings help indicate the important topics of your page to search engines. Although these tags are less important than properly optimized meta-titles and descriptions, H4, H5 & H6 headings may still help define the topic of your page to search engines. NOTE: Using Header elements right is equally important, especially because search engines use the header elements to determine the viewpoint and purpose of your web page. Headers provide the semantic structure and meaning to your web pages. It is common for search engines like Google, Yahoo and others to give superior treatment to web page design that use headers properly. Sitemap: Your site lacks a sitemap file. Sitemaps can help robots index your content more thoroughly and quickly. Code to Text Ratio: Your page size (source code) is 24KB and your content text size is 3KB which is 11.83% from your webpage source code. The ratio seems fine but you can improve it. NOTE: Code to text ratio represents the percentage of actual text on a web page compared to the percentage of HTML code, and it is used by search engines to calculate the relevancy of a web page. A higher code to text ratio will increase your chances of getting a better rank in search engine results. 5 P a g e

OFFSITE SEO OFFSITE ANALYSIS No link building effort has been made for the domain - http://www.mermaidfoodstuff.com/ Maintaining the link velocity is important to rank better in the search results. Google Panda looks at a website s authority & trust and it starts with its Link Velocity. NOTE: Link Velocity is the pace at which you are building backlinks to your website. Google can ban your website if your site is getting links in bulk in a short time. OUR SUGGESTIONS Increase the use of sponsored ads. Site-wide links should be acquired from the relevant niche and should be used in limited number. Keyword variation should be used to avoid Google Penguin updates. Use keyword variations like LSI keywords, generic variations, on page variations etc. Find industry specific websites and offer to write for them. Guest posting for reputable publication is an effective technique to achieve better SERP results. Diversification in the backlink profile is essential to rank better in the search engines. The links should be derived from good quality sources like authority sites, government sites and educational sites. Using variable sources when acquiring backlinks makes them appear more natural. Participate in online forums. Find niche specific forums, ask and reply to the queries of others users. Some online forums supports do follow links; these links will help to improve your SERP results. We recommend at least 2-3 press releases every month to acquire better quality links in PR buzz so that link building looks more natural. This type of backlink also increases trust and improves citation flow to the website. We generally focus on increasing the number of referring domains proportional to the number of increasing backlinks. This means that we are getting links from several unique domains and this is what brings in power to rank. 8 P a g e
