SEO Study: How Health Care Companies Handle Natural Search Engine Optimization

SEO Study: How Health Care Companies Handle Natural Search Engine Optimization

New study will show how well or how poorly 350 U. S. health care companies use natural search engine optimization (SEO).

Cleveland, OH (PRWEB) August 7, 2005

A new study of 350 health care companies will indicate whether they make good use of basic natural search engine optimization (SEO) techniques to get more traffic.

Prepared by Cleveland, Ohio-based Fathom SEO (http://www. fathomseo. com (http://www. fathomseo. com)), it will cover such SEO topics as web site page titles and META descriptions, site architecture barriers and visible text. The study will be released August 22.

A similar report released by Fathom SEO in June found that 75% of U. S. manufacturers donÂ’t appear to use effective keywords in the home page title tag, which heavily influences how well a web site will rank on search engines. More than 80% donÂ’t use a suitable title on primary interior pages, such as the about or product summary pages.

“It doesn’t make sense for many companies to ignore SEO,” said Michael Murray, vice president of Fathom SEO. “If a business sells in the U. S., or globally, competitive pressures alone should make it obvious that effective search engine optimization is vital. In some cases, SEO techniques can help regional or local businesses.”

Online searches arenÂ’t limited to celebrities, news and sports, Murray said. Plenty of business owners hunt for everything from medical devices to health care consultants.
