This just in!
It turns out that there's now more reason than ever to build your website with SiteSkins. Our recent research has shown conclusively that SiteSkins website owners have a great shot at doing extremely well in the search engines. Many site owners are enjoying top page spots, many with number one's, and some with the #1 spot in all 3 of the top search engines.
There are of course, many good reasons to choose SiteSkins as the place to create, maintain and host your website.
Our tools make building a high quality website easy and affordable. But there's not much point in having a great website if it's buried among the millions upon millions of pages out there. The real value to having a website is being FOUND. We have recently been undertaking a large-scale study of SiteSkins sites' relevance in the search engines. We focused on the top 3, Google, Yahoo! and MSN Search (live search). The results were quite amazing. We will highlight a few here, but the full report is available as a text file here.
We were surprised, but not completely.
Why not? Because we built SiteSkins with search rankings in mind. It was always our philosophy that to be successful in this marketplace, we'd need to be more than just a pretty face. We'd also have to create high-quality websites, that stand a chance at being found by the major engines. In fact, in 2001, we contracted a private SEO (Search Engine Optimization) expert, and made him a proposition. If he would teach us what he knew, with regard to achieving high rankings, we would pay him what he asked, and also agree not to sell that information, but use it for our own purposes. We then incorporated what we learned directly into our website builder, so that it *automatically* positions your website to rank well, without any knowledge on the part of the site owner. In other words, when you create a website with SiteSkins, you are getting yet another value that our competitors can't offer. An optimized site.
