SEO Edinburgh – Search engine optimisation Edinburgh?

What’s with the keyword spamming from companies outside the area? We are an Ethical Search Engine Optimisation company based in South Queensferry, Edinburgh. We believe that a big part of the SEO process for us is all about being ethical however, some of our competitors (who are not based in Edinburgh ) seem hell bent on spamming Search Engines with such key phrases such as “SEO Edinburgh and throughout the UK”. The same applies for Glasgow, Dundee, Aberdeen,London, Birmingham, Manchester etc., etc.

Why?  It’s clearly SEO’s trying deploying all the spammy techniques in the book to obtain SERPS domination. It’s much more productive to concentrate in good copy and the rest will follow.  Think about it for a minute. Any company using a local search is looking for a local company. The minute they click on a spammed link tey will bounce back to a local company in the listings. Edinburgh is a big city with many businesses providing excellent services so why other companies as far away as Birmingham and London spam the local search with these keyphrases can only be detrimental to the company and frustrating for the searcher.

The whole point of SEO is to be targetted for your key phrases in your key local or national area – or so we thought. Whilst we do business nationally we are an SEO company based in Edinburgh. Our national work comes to us not because we spam search engines with phrases like “SEO Aberdeen, SEO London” etc., it comes to us because we’re extremely good at what we do and we don’t need to resort to these spamming tactics.

So there’s a moral here…especially for companies doing their inhouse SEO or competitors constantly looking at our website. Just don’t cheat and don’t spam. It’s a huge big old world out there and play fair. It will reward you in the end.
