			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Traditional methods used to find products and services are becoming more obsolete. Instead individuals are turing to the internet to find products and services. In fact up to 75% of North Americans are using search engines on a regular basis.</p>
<p><span id="more-87"></span>A site with effective seo web design can very reasonably generate 15,000 visitors a day, and typically 50% of that traffic comes from search engines, most likely due to the fact people trust them to list the most relevant and credible websites first. 90% of Internet users click on a website that is displayed on the first page, consequently if a site does not show up in the first page of search results, odds are that site will not be found.</p>
<p>Many businesses will spend thousands (and tens of thousands) on traditional media advertising campaigns without blinking an eye, but get anxious about seo web design / seo marketing campaigns. Their anxiety is merited however. Since seo is a new industry, it&#8217;s very important to make thoughtful and educated decisions when hiring an seo web design company.</p>
<p>To assist in making a smart choice, here is a guide compiled by Studio2 Design + Bergstrom SEO, a reputable seo web design company:</p>
<p>1. Work Portfolio</p>
<p>- Does the company have experience in designing a site similar to the scope needed?<br />
- Do they outline the results of their seo web design solutions? Appropriateness to the outlined marketing objectives?<br />
- Do they have examples of their ability to remain on budget and on time?</p>
<p>2. The Credentials</p>
<p>- Do the individuals who will be working on your seo web design have the appropriate training and experience?<br />
- Evaluate how important the ratio of experience vs. cost is to your project.</p>
<p>3. Client Testimonials</p>
<p>- Read over any client testimonials listed on the seo web design company website.<br />
- If you feel you need further information, ask to contact the client who wrote the testimonial.</p>
<p>4. Budget</p>
<p>- As best as you can, try to know your approximate budget before asking for quotes.<br />
- Obtain a few seo web design company quotes, and have them break down the project into segments whenever possible.<br />
- Try to stay away from companies who charge by the hour, instead of giving you a clear and concrete cost.</p>
<p>6. Contract</p>
<p>- For your, and the web design company&#8217;s protection, ensure that both parties sign off on a contract before starting on the project.</p>
