Why is this important? Search engines are the most effective way to bring free, targeted potential buyers to your online store. Consider:

One study showed search engine positions are 2 to 3 times more effective in generating sales than banner ads. And 92% of online consumers use search engines to shop and/or purchase online.

Another survey reported that 84.8 percent of respondents found out about Web pages from search engines.

Google has over 50 million unique visitors each month, so a top 10 listing on Google could bring hundreds of visitors to your online store every month. Google has partnered with other important search engines, like AOL and Yahoo, which will give your online store even more exposure!

Many firms spend thousands of dollars each month to attain top 10 listings on the major search engines.
