“The staff and owner of Intellibright are extremely smart and helpful. They have made this process so easy for me as a business owner. I would recommend them to anyone who finally wants to get a handle on all their digital marketing platforms.”
Intellibright helped us turn our website into a true lead generator and align our sales process to close those leads more efficiently.

We have had the pleasure of working with Intellibright for our PPC and SEO needs for the better part of a year now. Their expertise and results-driven approach have significantly contributed to our success. I highly recommend their dedicated team for anyone looking to enhance their digital marketing.
Ron and his team are simply amazing. They have been instrumental in organizing, optimizing, and scaling our advertising. The visibility we have now has given me back hours to my day.
The recent launch of Google’s Penguin 3.0 platform has online marketing managers the world over struggling to learn how their previous best practices apply moving forward. The update, officially launched on Friday, October 24, aims to identify spam website marketing and to diminish their search result positioning.
Google’s updated algorithm specifically looks to eliminate the efficacy of link spam tactics that have previously rewarded their practitioners. The right way and wrong way to build up the visibility of a website should, by all accounts, be easier to understand as Penguin 3.0 comes into full maturity. Of course, the small and mid-sized business owner encounters a much steeper learning curve than established online marketing professionals. The most unfortunate fact associated with this on-the-fly education is that mistakes have a significantly deleterious effect on your company.
Remaining In Google’s Good Graces
With SEO campaigns, a good rule of thumb is that if it feels shady, it probably is. Adding a superfluous number of links to poorly written content is a sure fire way to attract the ire of Google and draw a penalty from them. The last thing a small to mid-sized business owner wants is to have their company’s web presence placed on the sidelines while their competitors draw potential customers from them. The production of quality content with a targeted SEO strategy goes a long way to ensure your company’s visibility is maintained on the world wide web while avoiding any red flags with the search engines.
For the inexperienced online marketer, there are a host of automated programs that offer to scour the Internet and place generic content in the hopes that readers will follow the links back to your webpage. Automation makes everything easier. Unfortunately, this also applies to Google and other search engines that look very unfavorably on this tactic. If the results promised to you seem too good to be true, they likely are, and you should steer clear of link building tactics that promise a rapidly increased visibility with little work by you and little risk to your company.
Using your company’s social media accounts and leaving legitimate comments on appropriate blog posts is imperative in maintaining an optimal search ranking. Communication with your followers proves that a real person is taking the time to share their thoughts with them. Not only does this personalize your company, helping to build a relationship, but search engines recognize those posts as having merit rather than being an exercise in spam marketing.
