When designing small business websites I focus on marketing, search engine optimization and allowing customers to contact you. Other web designers make nice looking 5 page websites that give customers no way of contacting you except to copy your email address down. Usually the website itself will not attract free visitors from Google, yahoo! or MSN either.
The small business websites I design include email forms, so that customers can send you emails direct from the website. I’ll also optimize the site to get decent rankings in the search engines, and that includes analysis of what keywords to choose and the competition for that keyword from other websites. Every customer also gets 10 incoming links from my well ranked websites and I'll manually submit your website to google, yahoo and msn (the top search engines that most people use).
I can guarantee that your website will be crawled by all 3 search engines and you'll get ranked in their search results, although this can take several months. The position of your website in the results is up to the search engines, but achieving top 20 rankings for the keywords is not unusual.
