Sure, you can use Pay Per Click (PPC). It even may be the best way to go, once in a while..

And rightfully so. That’s wise in many cases. Most people know that what they see in the PPC ads are just that. Advertising! Ads that someone is paying for. Someone is paying someone else to have you click on their ad.

Most people know that the organic rankings are what really count. These are the REAL results. Nobody pays for these (or so they think!)

The organic rankings are those that occupy the majority of the left hand portion of the Search Engine Results Pages (SERPs).

Google, for example, has Sponsored Links above the organic results. Google also has Sponsored Links, vertically, on the right hand site of the page.

The “Organic Results”, most say the real results, are on the left, below the PPC listings.

How can your site get top organic rankings?

1) On page optimization. Make sure that your page has everything that the engine (in this case, Google) wants. It could be Yahoo, MSN, AOL, whatever. Read, study, hire a professional (such as my guaranteed search engine positioning company, GSEP.COM).

2) Linking. Develop a program to increase the number of links coming into your site.

3) Internal links. You should have links, with the appropriate keywords, pointing to the home page or to a page specifically designed to rank highly for a particular term.

4) Use blogs. Get posts out here in the Blogosphere.

Do these things, and more, and you’re well on the way to top SEO rankings.
