Search engine optimization is the process of 'optimizing' the architectural
aspects of your web site for search engines. How your site is designed plays a
critical role in how much organic (natural) traffic it will receive. Search engines
tend to give 'high rankings' to sites designed with search engine optimization in
mind. When search engines like Google can comprehend everything on your
web site, chances are substantially increased for ranking well.
Site Architecture
Using our initial research and analysis Tom Forrest LLC will examine and if
required, make optimization suggestions for changes to your actual web site
pages including both page copy and back-end coding elements like HTML, meta
tags, scripting elements, programming functions, or any other changes our
technicians believe may be necessary in preventing difficulty for search engines
which need to read, scan, and understand what your pages are about.
Example of Meta Data (web site programming) Modifications.
Example of Web Analytics (installed on site).
Your site goes through a thorough analysis to determine its strengths and
weaknesses. This allows our team to assess the opportunities for improvement

LINK BUILDING
Search engines decide which sites they show users based mostly on "Pagerank",
a unique measure of importance created by Google founder Larry Page.

and "value" of each link which points to your web site. Tom Forrest LLC has a
deep understanding of exactly how important each link is to your business based
on various aspects such as theme, relevance, positioning, and authority. Link
popularity is one of the most important aspects of your overall visibility on the
web and has the ability to greatly increase the rankings of your web site.
Tom Forrest LLC will build links to your site as well as outline various link building
opportunities. Web partners, service providers, yours, as well as other web
properties all have the ability to link to you. Tom Forrest LLC will work with you to
determine which sites these are, and will help make contact with these firms
through either phone or email.
Links pointing to your web site can be generated from:
• Web Directories
• Text Link Ads
• Banner Ads
• Press Releases
• Blog Syndication
• Article Syndication
• Social Networks
• Video Syndication
• Social Bookmarking

17 27 Internet Marketing Services ProposalPAY-PER-CLICK SERVICES
Pay Per Click (PPC) Advertising is now recognized as one of the most efficient
ways for businesses to quickly add targeted, measurable website traffic. With a
well-run PPC campaign, your business will start to receive targeted leads the
day the campaign is activated, and you will have the ability to control every
aspect of the PPC account on a moment-by-moment basis.
While making ads appear on search engines is relatively simple, creating an
efficient, measurable, profitable campaign is very difficult in the "New PPC
Marketplace", which is driven by highly competitive, professional PPC marketers.
In the new online market, quality scores, A-B ad testing, match types, and
conversion-based optimization are for beginners. In most cases, your
competition is paying attention to the more comprehensive aspects of PPC,
such as Remarketing, PPC dimensions, Ad Extensions, and Experiment Betas.
If you’re not doing the same, you not only lack a competitive advantage – you’re
working from behind. Tom Forrest LLC makes sure the basics are in place first,
and then uses these advanced, powerful tools to drive your ROI ever higher.
PPC (pay-per-click advertising) is an optional add on to all SEO packages and is
recommended to receive instant traffic, A PPC management fee of 3% of your
cost-per-click budget plus $1700 per month in Management fees.

18 27 Internet Marketing Services ProposalPPC: Increasing Click-Through-Rates (CTR) and Conversions While
Reducing Cost
PPC: Basic Best Practices
• Campaign and Ad Group Expansion (Note: NOT Budget Expansion)
Many PPC companies pack several product categories into one ad group with
the intention of saving time. Tom Forrest LLC’s best practices require an ad group
for each product or service category, which tends to increase the relevance of the
ads to the customer’s search query.
• A/B Ad Testing
A/B ad testing is crucial to the success of PPC campaigns, and Tom Forrest LLC
takes full advantage of this tool. We have found that other PPC management
firms consistently underutilize this process due to its labor-intensive nature,
which gives us (and you) a substantial advantage.
• A/B Landing Page Testing
Tom Forrest LLC tests various landing pages within our clients’ sites to find the
ones that convert best. Rather than direct ads to the homepage, TTom Forrest
LLC’s best practices require testing "deep" landing pages that are specifically
related to the product or service for which the customer is searching.
Tom Forrest LLC Page of
19 27 Internet Marketing Services ProposalPPC: What Changed to Increase Conversions?
• Conversion-Based Optimization
Rather than simply test ad effectiveness based on click-through-rate, Tom Forrest
LLC analyzes the effectiveness of the ads based on their ultimate goal — driving
conversions.
• Keyword Expansion
Most PPC companies tend to overuse broad match keywords because using
exact and phrase match keywords takes time, and research. Tom Forrest LLC
focuses on secondary match types to drive clicks at a lower cost.
• Negative Keyword Expansion
Tom Forrest LLC focuses on negative keywords to eliminate irrelevant clicks.
• Search Network Analysis
Tom Forrest LLC tests and analyzes the results obtained through both the Search
Networks and Display Networks to determine the optimal mix for the highest
return on investment.
• Utilization of Advanced Adwords Tools and Betas
Tom Forrest LLC stays up to date on the most powerful tools that the Adwords
Interface and third party software developers have to offer, and uses these tools

*Web development fees may apply for significant design or visual on-

25 27 Internet Marketing Services ProposalYOUR COST: $6000.00 MONTHLY for Marketing
and SEO consulting, including quality SEO Link Building.
+ $1700 per month plus 3% of Google Ad spend for Pay
Per Click management.
We handle Google Ads account setups in a transparent and client-first
way that aligns with Google’s best practices.
To start, we create a Google Ads account that is fully owned by the
client and registered in the client’s name. Google prefers accounts to be
verified, so shortly after setup—or sometimes immediately—we may
need to confirm key business details.
The client's credit card is securely added directly to the Google Ads
billing system. Google then charges the client directly, typically in fixed
billing increments (for example, every time the account hits $1,000 in
spend) or at regular intervals such as every 10, 15, or 30 days—
depending on account activity. This setup ensures that all payments go
straight from the client to Google, not through a middleman.
This method also helps separate ad spend from management fees. If a
client is investing significant amounts in advertising, it’s best that
Google handles the billing directly—removing any liability in the event
of chargeback which could be significant.
Tom Forrest LLC Page of
26 27 Internet Marketing Services ProposalOnce the account is active, we take care of all the technical work
involved in optimizing the campaigns.
This includes managing a wide range of advanced settings and
strategies that can be overwhelming for most business owners. On an
ongoing basis, we monitor campaign performance, track where leads
are coming from, identify which ads are delivering the best results, and
continuously adjust, pause, or launch new ads as needed. The goal is
always to maximize lead generation and ensure the client is getting the
best possible return on their investment.
