Having a website which is well-optimised for search engines is very important, and I agree that unfortunately relatively few web designers don’t offer search engine optimisation. Any money spent on search engine optimisation is very likely to pay itself off in extra traffic, so it shouldn’t be skimped on.

a common situation may occur when designer works without conslulting a seo specialist and seo doen’t ask for help in bulding relevant landing pages. the result is a fragmented site, where number of conversions is low, because of lack of integration of design with seo.

Interesting indeed. I think SEO is an important part of web development. Every web developer should know to optimize the site developed as a part o f the development.

if you can pair SEO services and Design together, you give your clients a chance to build a stronger relationship with your company. Great Post.

I agree, Donnie – I, too, do SEO and design and offer them as a package to my clients…

I think a recent trend is that Web designers also do SEO. In my case, SEO is my first skill, Web design is my second skill. I have trained Web designers that work with me to follow my standards. I primary goal is ROI for my client. SEO gives me that.

Great post. I agree, to have SEO implemented, early in development is a good thing. If you take the time, the results are worth it.

Lynn,

Agreed – Flash is NOT great at all. IMO, flash should be used if it’s necessary to present something. To spice sites with Flash will only hurt on-site SEO (to some people, loading flash will turn them away from your site!)

That in itself is a good argument for not doing the SEO and website design separately. The designer needs to know which practices are counter-productive for SEO. Some people today think that a site that is mostly FLASH oriented is great. Not realizing that the search engines get nothing usable from Flash.

Yan,

It’s better for the designer to implement SEO-friendly practices, such as no flash or frames, less graphics more texts, etc. However to get the best of both world, I agree that specialists do their job better…
