Silverback

SEO Done Right

D.C. is a place where SEO can make or break an organization. Whether you’re a private business, a non-profit, or a government agency, your online performance matters.

In this part of the country, organizations who are serious about their online performance engage Silverback Strategies for SEO, in part because our approach is radically different from the generic services available from any of the thousands of SEO companies in the Mid-Atlantic region.

First, Silverback’s approach to SEO goes far beyond metadata and keyword density. We manage variables from content quantity and quality to usability and navigation design; internal, external and social linkages; and on-site user behaviors such as bounce rate and page views. Our holistic methodology assures that every aspect of your site – links, architecture, content and coding – drives search success.

The fact is, Google’s ranking algorithm now accounts for hundreds of variables that change up to 500 times each year. And our Northern Virginia-based team of SEO specialists is always ahead of these shifts, monitoring and adapting to every update to maintain an average 411% increase in total top-ten rankings for our clients.

Cutting-edge methodologies, one-on-one service, and outstanding performance for our clients here in Washington and around the country– that’s why you want Silverback for SEO.

And there’s one more thing. We’re the only SEO agency in the nation’s capital (or the nation, for that matter) to offer a comprehensive 60-day 100% money-back performance guarantee for new clients.

These are just some of the reasons D.C. trusts Silverback for search engine optimization. To learn more, give us a call. Or simply stop by. We’re right around the corner in Alexandria.

Come be a part of Silverback Strategies
 

We’re the ExpressionEngine experts (not to mention fans.)

Hands-down, ExpressionEngine is the most powerful, flexible and secure content management system available – just ask any good web developer. It’s what we use for our own website here at Silverback Strategies, it’s what we recommend to anyone who will listen, and it’s what we use to develop every website we create for our clients.

The fact is, ExpressionEngine allows us to be better web developers – to develop very sophisticated and innovative web features for our clients in an efficient, scalable and manageable way. It provides all the tools we need to build sites that do virtually anything our clients can imagine – from blogs to user forums and much more. And it makes life a lot easier for all the other people who work with your site – from your marketing team to the CFO.

And building sites is just the beginning. ExpressionEngine allows us to scale and expand our clients’ websites easily as their needs change over time and provides a very easy way for clients and site owners to manage and maintain content independently if they choose. Not only does it makes life very easy on the people managing your site content, but also provides virtually limitless flexibility for how you design, structure, populate and grow your site.

The way we see it, our clients are spending a minimum of $15,000 for a website, and we want them to get the best operability, flexibility and scalability from day one – so we always develop on ExpressionEngine.

A professional platform for the long haul.

There are a wide range of “free” and low-cost CMS systems out there, but if you are making any kind of investment in your online presence, it’s a mistake not to develop on ExpressionEngine. It’s a commercial tool supported by a team of committed developers and technical support specialists. You get the quality, consistency and support you’d expect from any other kind of software or web technology you pay for.

If you dream it, we can build it.

Silverback’s ExpressionEngine developers have created dozens and dozens of client websites across industries from healthcare to energy to hospitality using ExpressionEngine, each meeting a unique set of goals. Our development team has the experience and deep understanding of ExpressionEngine required to use it to its full potential and to fully customize your site design, structure and content to meet your needs.

Easier on everyone

It’s not just good developers who love ExpressionEngine. Your designer, your staff responsible for updating content, the guy charged with tracking and updating URLs – using the best CRM makes everyone’s job easier. Updating, maintaining and refreshing your site on a day-to-day basis – it all goes smoothly when you start with ExpressionEngine and Silverback.

Hot tip: If you’re enlisting Silverback Strategies for SEO, ExpressionEngine even gives us the best possible foundation for managing your campaign.

See for yourself.

Featured Projects

Where quality leads,
engines follow.

The driving factors that promote top organic search rankings are more complex than ever. Algorithms that once focused on keywords are now all about the user - how visitors value and share and interact with your content. At Silverback, our strategies prioritize user experience – because in today’s algorithmic environment, where users go, rankings follow.

We make you a fundamental part of the process. Your industry expertise and insights inform every aspect of the SEO strategy we build for you.  At every step, your business, your audience and your input are part of our SEO equation:

It starts with research

Our approach is unique from day one. We begin our SEO process by exhaustively researching your industry, your market characteristics and your competition to develop search personas for your target audience. Building user personas helps focus SEO efforts on your most profitable target audience to maximize conversions and ROI. What keywords will they be using? Which landing pages target them best? Are their buying motivations reflected in your content? By establishing personas based on location, demographics, traffic sources and other data, we drive not only the most traffic to your site, but also the right traffic.

Once we thoroughly understand your goals and targeted persona profiles, we run a full audit of your current website from top to bottom. Our sophisticated audit process examines your site from both a technical and a user/persona perspective –much the way a search engine will.

Finally, we conduct a complete analysis of your competitive landscape. By evaluating who your SEO competitors are, what tactics they use, and where their weaknesses are, we can leverage opportunities your competition has overlooked.

Reporting and relationships

With search algorithms changing continually (Google’s changes more than 500 times per year) SEO is a dynamic activity. That makes constant communication crucial to keeping our customers updated and in the loop on their SEO progress. Open, transparent and continual communication is fundamental to how we do business and the success of your SEO campaigns.

An Open Line of Communication.

A team of SEO specialists, led by your designated SEO Account Manager, will be responsible for implementing your strategy. Your Account Manager will know you and your business and will be in constant communication with you by phone, email, chat and video conferencing throughout the process. While some SEO companies actually limit communication with their clients, we encourage it. You’ll have open access to your Silverback SEO Account Manager every day.

Clear, Comprehensive Reports

We provide in-depth reports that track key website metrics, shifts in traffic, and rankings on a keyword-to-keyword basis. We’ll deliver those reports in the format that’s most useful to you – with graphics that make it easy to visualize progress. Every report is customized to your needs, your business and the stakeholders you report to.

By focusing first on your business goals and user experience, and by maintaining an up-to-the minute alignment with Google’s constantly changing search algorithms, Silverback Strategies SEO services deliver results that are virtually unmatched in the industry.

 
 

From strategy to action

Using our understanding of your business and user profile, we then develop and apply your SEO strategy across all facets of your web presence:

SEO On-Page Enhancements

On-Page Enhancements

By optimizing your page coding and internal linking-structure, we establish a search-friendly architecture and the most compelling experience for your users. We incorporate new strategic keywords into meta content, alt attributes, header tags, URL slugs and other areas of your website.*

SEO Content Enhancement

Content Enhancement

Google places a premium on how much users enjoy, value, share and return to your content. And by content we don’t just mean text. Quality video, infographics, widgets. Images and articles – these are the hallmarks of robust content that users will care about –leading to viral distribution and an influx of authoritative links. Silverback will ensure you build the kind of rich content framework that provides value to users and feeds your search status.

SEO Link Building

Link-Building

Search engines track the links between your pages and other high-quality sites, making them important indicators of site value from an SEO perspective. Using highly nuanced link analysis, search engines rate how authoritative or popular your content is within the broader web community, which contributes to your search ranking.  Your Silverback SEO team will work continually to expand your link profile to trusted sites to enhance your rankings and site traffic.

The Silverback Guarantee

If we don’t believe we can be successful and get the results you want, we won’t take on your business. We select our clients carefully, and once we do, we offer them our virtually unheard-of 60-day guarantee.

If within 60 days of engaging Silverback for SEO or PPC services you are not happy with our performance or our relationship in any way, we will refund 100% of your management fees.

Even more impressive than our guarantee? The fact that since we opened our doors in 2007, not a single client has ever exercised it.

Neil Welsh

Neil Welsh

President

In the decade that Neil has been managing search marketing campaigns and search marketing teams, he has developed a very specific (and increasingly rare) vision for how SEM gets done right.

Silverback Strategies has grown into one of the top SEM providers in the nation since he founded the company in 2007. While Silverback has grown significantly in size and revenue, his business strategy remains unchanged, defined by a service model that focuses on a small number of highly successful accounts vs. a high volume of neglected ones.

Neil’s unique business philosophy enables every account manager at Silverback to devote their full attention to the clients and campaigns in their care and to make the optimal use of company’s sophisticated technology investments. The result is ROI far exceeding the industry average and long-term client relationships that are virtually unheard-of in SEM.

Work with any member of the Silverback team, and you’ll get a sense of Neil’s influence. Neil has hand-picked account leaders who are not only among the industry’s best in their disciplines, but who are also committed to to unhurried, plain-English communication with clients on even the most technical of topics.

Neil remains heavily involved in every aspect of Silverback’s operations and is a committed evangelist to the next generation of web marketers. He frequently lectures to students at James Madison University, West Virginia University, Georgetown University and other area institutions. Most recently, he served as the SEO expert at What’s Next DC.

About Silverback Strategies

Combining small agency agility with elite talent and tools, Silverback Strategies is a high-touch search engine marketing firm located in the Washington, DC Metro Area and serving customers nationwide.

Founded in 2007 by President Neil Welsh, Silverback Strategies' team comprises specialists in paid, organic and mobile search; engineers and designers. The company maintains a longstanding relationship with Google and has been Google-certified since 2007. Silverback’s accolades include being named the #2 PPC firm by Toptenreviews.com.

Enough about us. It’s about you.

It’s about your business. And it’s about the web, and how it’s always changing. It’s about how Google shifts its search algorithm about 500 times each year. How innovations like social media can transform the online world in a virtual heartbeat. And how online marketing cannot be a static activity. Not even for a day.

Everything we do at Silverback Strategies is as dynamic as the web is. How we collaborate with our customers (constantly), how achieve ever-increasing ROI (unceasingly), and how we continually implement better technology, tools and strategies to achieve customer goals.
And how every day it starts all over again.

We work, learn and adapt nonstop to keep our clients at the leading edge of online performance.

What never changes, however, is our pride in great relationships with our clients - and the rush that comes from getting them great results.

 

Vet the platform

Your first question to any search partner should be: "what technology do you use?" The complexity and scale of PPC today demand highly sophisticated technology as well as the best people to operate it.

At Silverback Strategies, we consider our technology to be crucial to how we do business. That’s why we have invested in the industry’s most advanced and powerful search management platform from Marin Software. Billions of dollars in ad spend are entrusted to Marin’s platform, and no search technology is more robust or intelligent. The home-grown proprietary software tools most agencies use don’t even come close.

Marin Enterprise PPC Management

Why did we make that investment? Because today, even modest paid search campaigns are extremely complex, with literally thousands of moving parts. In order to properly manage and optimize a paid search campaign, every conversion factor for each and every one of these moving parts must be analyzed and tested, a feat no account manager or even team of managers can accomplish without the right technology.

 

With Marin, Silverback Assures You: Full view and cross-channel synergy of SEM/Digital Advertising efforts from exposure conversion; Highly accurate attribution modeling; Path-to-conversion reporting by channel; Advanced algorithmic bidding models oriented to your specific goals (ROI, CPA, etc.).

Why Marin Matters

The fact is, which platform your search partner uses can make or break the success of your paid search campaigns. The Marin platform gives our search experts the analytical capacity to manage performance and spend across thousands of keywords, campaigns and ad versions every day.

We utilize Marin to continually monitor huge amounts of campaign data so that we can review and control bids intelligently and make tactical decisions based on complete, accurate information - all in accordance with your specific performance goals. Our technology-intensive business model enables us to maintain focused and intimate service in support of even the largest and most complex search programs. You won’t find our combination of small-agency service and unlimited analytical capacity anywhere else.

Let's Talk.

Always ahead of the game

Organizations who are serious about their online performance engage Silverback Strategies for SEO, in part because our approach is radically different from the generic services available from any other SEO company here and abroad.

How search engines crawl, evaluate and rank websites has changed dramatically. In fact, Google’s ranking algorithm now accounts for hundreds of variables that change up to 500 times each year. Silverback’s team of SEO specialists is always ahead of these shifts, monitoring and adapting to every update to maintain an average 411% increase in total top-ten rankings for our clients.

Thinking like people

SEO today is complex. Google’s algorithms increasingly take ‘human’ parameters into account – rewarding and ranking highest those sites that human users will value, engage with, share and frequent.

That’s why Silverback’s approach to SEO goes way beyond meta data and keyword density. We manage variables from content quantity and quality to usability and navigation design; internal, external and social linkages; and on-site user behaviors such as bounce rate and page views. Our holistic methodology assures that every aspect of your site – links, architecture, content and coding – drives search success.

Smarter sites. No headaches.

Whether you’re launching your web presence from scratch or refreshing your site design as part of an SEO initiative, Silverback website design services ensure your site promotes your brand, welcomes your users, and supports your online goals.

A mirror to your message

Like all Silverback services, our approach to website design starts with learning about your business, your audience, your market and your goals. We take the time to understand your brand personality and how you want to relate to your customers. The result is design that reflects the essence of your brand and resonates with your unique target.

Clunk-free navigation

Usability is everything. Easy, efficient browsing is built into every site we design – so your visitors can get quickly and easily to the content they want.

Behind-the-scenes benefits

Behind the scenes, your Silverback-designed website will be coded to meet the latest HTML standards, which ensures smooth and trouble-free rendering across a wide variety of Web browsers.

We also apply SEO-friendly development techniques that work in harmony with our SEO services and strategies.

Hassle-free maintenance

If you’ve ever felt like a hostage to your web designer, you’ll love the freedom of working with Silverback.

Once your site is live, we make it easy for you to manage and update your content independently – so you’re not reliant on us every time you want to make a change. Our flexible and robust CMS platform, ExpressionEngine, makes every content element on your site quick and easy to update as-needed.  You’ll have complete control of your site content at all times, but we’ll always be here if you need us.

Metrics say more than words

In the PPC world, everything comes down to numbers. And there are a few numbers that speak volumes about Silverback Strategies. The first is this one: 260%.

While Google will tell you that a 2.0% conversion rate is an ambitious target for a successful PPC campaign, Silverback Strategies routinely achieves conversion rates in excess of 7.5%, outperforming the Google benchmark by an average of 260%.

Conversion Rates: Silverback Strategies routinely exceeds the Google standard by an average of 260% Get a Quote

The reason we outperform the rest of the industry is that we practice PPC management unlike the rest of the industry. Most PPC firms are virtual factories, where managers juggle dozens of accounts every day and rapidly churn through clients. Profitable for them, not necessarily for you.

Silverback, on the other hand, works only with a select category of clients with PPC budgets from $10K to $250K and up. Each of our PPC specialists is assigned a very small fraction of our account load, becoming expert in every aspect of the client’s business, customers and day-to-day market movements. The PPC management we do is labor-intensive, communication-intensive, and incredibly dynamic; and overloading our managers would make success impossible.

Maintaining this service model requires us to be selective and pragmatic in choosing clients. We will objectively analyze your business, goals and budget well before we negotiate terms. If we determine that we can’t bring value to your organization or that our methodology isn’t a good fit for you, we won’t take on your business. Consequently, you can be confident that once we partner with you, we’ll deliver the results we promise.

We make it about you

Another difference you’ll notice about Silverback Strategies is our commitment not only to making your PPC campaigns successful, but also to making you successful. We understand the obligations you have to your stakeholders, and we consider them our obligations, too.

We not only achieve exceptional performance, we also make process, progress and resulting ROI crystal clear for you to grasp, validate and regularly report back to your business.

We typically work directly with our client’s digital marketing manager or marketing department – professionals who know first-hand that successful Google AdWords management is a full-time job. In an online market where 580 million searches are conducted each day, PPC is enormously complex. And unless you have the luxury of spending all day on PPC, you won’t get results. We not only achieve exceptional performance, we also make process, progress and resulting ROI crystal clear for you to grasp, validate and regularly report back to your business. In fact, we consider reporting to be a fundamental component of our client service, because we know it’s a crucial part of your job. We’ll work with you to develop the reporting schedule and format that work best for you and your organization – so whether you report back to marketing-, executive- or board-level audiences, you’ll present with clarity and authority.

The promise is the process

How we do our work is complex, dynamic and unrelenting. From setup to research to management and reporting, our approach to PPC is unlike any other. We start with an exhaustive education in your business and sophisticated keyword research that provides the foundation for ongoing refinement, optimization, reporting and analysis.

Rank online and get more ROI from your marketing budget

With more and more people turning online instead of newspapers, magazines, TV, and other traditional marketing methods to get information, it's getting pretty hard to get the right visibility from target audiences. The Internet has become an efficient resource to provide great information instantly. That's why companies are now turning to online marketing to help get their businesses more visibility on the Web. Nobody knows your business better than you do and a great SEO Agency can help you rise above your competitors and get you the most targeted Internet visibility, so you can do what you do best. Run your business.

Search Engine Optimization (SEO) the right way

SEO is an important component to an effective Internet marketing campaign, lots of SEO Agencies offer solutions with promises of top rankings that are almost too good to be true. Many such Agencies often achieve their results by using illegal methods that are quickly being banned by Search Engines like Google and Yahoo. Known as “black hat” tactics; these efforts may cause a small increase in your site’s rank; however this surge will be temporary. Search engines are getting much smarter and more complex that if caught they punish sites by stripping them of their ranking or banning them altogether.

We believe in building relationships with our clients. As a trusted SEO Company, we do not implement “black hat” methods to rank our clients' sites. Proper Search Engine Optimization takes about 2 to 6 months not over night since Search Engines check the relevancy of the site and landing pages being optimized.

Silverback Strategies provides an extensive range of proper “white hat” SEO serivces that include:

SEO management for a dynamic world

Next to email, search engines are one of most widely used technologies on the web.  That’s why such a huge proportion of internet traffic (some estimate upwards of 80%) is driven by the leading engines.  That’s also why SEO campaign management is so crucial to any online marketing strategy. Your visibility on search engine results pages can make or break your online success.

In addition, the right approach to SEO management can help you build credibility. Consumers tend to trust organic, unpaid search results more than other kinds of advertising, and 7 out of 10 will choose an organic listing over a paid listing most of the time.

Think about it, while many consumers actively try to opt out of or block other kinds of online advertising, search is something they seek out. They want to find you. With smart SEO campaign management, you can make the most of that pre-qualified audience, turning them into leads and customers. Our approach to SEO campaign management does just that – and it’s comprehensive, integrating a wide range of technical and marketing elements to achieve the kind of organic results that maximize your site’s visibility.

Full service SEO management - planning to design to analysis

Silverback Strategies utilizes a full arsenal of tools to maximize your rankings, creating an SEO strategy that incorporates keyword associations, referring sites, site content and even the structure of your URL and more to optimize your performance. And when you leverage our web design services as part of your SEO management package, you’re assured that users have a positive and compelling experience once they arrive at your site – turning all those visitors into conversions and loyal customers.

It all starts with smart keyword management

Core to our SEO campaign management services is exhaustive keyword research. We thoroughly analyze the queries your target is likely to search on, including alternate phrasing and spelling. We evaluate which terms are most likely to drive actual conversions. And we conduct performance testing to further refine your terms.

Our complete SEO services include keyword research and analysis, copy editing and content guidance, competitive analysis, site architecture optimization, linking strategies, submissions to the engines and much more.

SEO management for long-term results

SEO campaign management isn’t a one-time activity. It’s a long-term, ongoing process that demands a well planned strategy and constant adaptability. Rules and requirements of the engines change constantly, technology evolves continually, and the competitive landscape shifts literally minute by minute.

When you choose Silverback Strategies for your SEO Campaign Management, you know we’ll be there for the long run, providing daily monitoring and evaluation of both your performance and that of your competition.  We work continually to build on both the quality and volume of traffic to your website by keeping your rank on search engine results pages in the top-10 – where they belong.

And the good news is that the longer we maintain your sound SEO campaign management strategy, the better your results. The older your site, the better – as long as it has maintained good keyword management, relevant content, quality links and has not conducted black-hat tactics to boost rankings. The engines reward our kind of SEO management, and we have the track record to show for it.

Proof positive

The measure of our success in SEO management is simple: your search engine ranking. You’re top-ten by the time we promise.

Your Full Service Google AdWords Marketing Agency

Silverback Strategies is your full service agency for pay per click advertising, SEO campaign management and website development. If you want to dominate the web, you’ve come to the right place.

Break Through the AdWords Clutter

Run just about any search on Google, and it’s easy to see that managing a Google AdWords Campaign isn’t as simple as it used to be. New features such as product listing ads, new ad extensions and remarketing provide great opportunities for advertisers, but they’ve also made paid search much more complex and crowded – with new AdWords features emerging all the time, and every ad competing for user attention.

To succeed in this new environment, you need AdWords management experts like the PPC Team at Silverback Strategies. And when we say experts, we mean it. We’re AdWords certified, always in tune and in communication with Google to stay ahead of every new feature and opportunity for our clients. And we participate in AdWords beta testing programs and keep our fingers on the pulse of PPC. But the fact is, you should expect all that from your AdWords management partner.

What you can’t expect to find everywhere else is our technology, our focus and our phenomenal results. In fact, our average client conversion rate is 7.5%, outperforming the Google benchmark by an average of 260%.

As for technology, here’s some advice: don’t underestimate the importance of software in effective PPC. In fact, make it one of the first questions you ask any potential PPC vendor, and don’t waste your money on a vendor that tells you technology is a “crutch.”

The fact is, any successful PPC demands a powerful algorithmic engine to get results. Don’t just take our word for it, Forrester Research agrees – and anyone who tells you otherwise probably still owns a VCR.

The technology  we use to do our heavy algorithmic lifting is Marin, and it lets us efficiently manage performance and spend across thousands of keywords, campaigns and ad versions every day. Our clients spend a minimum of $10,000 each month on their AdWords campaigns, and Marin ensures we can manage, monitor and control every last detail, and provide the personal service we’re known for. We leverage Marin to continually monitor huge amounts of campaign data so that we can review and control AdWords bids intelligently and make tactical decisions based on complete, accurate information.

We eat, sleep and breathe PPC. Our AdWords management professionals are as driven as they come, and it shows in the results we get for our clients.
