    Search Engine Optimization for Key Phrases

    November 5th, 2010 - by Jeff Wagner

    I wanted to share some results I’m getting with my website’s search engine optimization (SEO). For a year and a half I’ve been trying to make some traction in organic search results in Google for certain keyword phrases like “Minnesota Web Design” (check it out yourself) where I’m trying to target local businesses.


    Google Organic Search Result

    This is a very competitive phrase for Web Design agencies within the Twin Cities area and in Minnesota. With there being so many agencies and small Web companies everyone’s trying to leap frog each other to the first page of Google’s organic search results. Currently, I’m on the second page as the 15th organic search result and hopefully in the near future I’ll make it to the first page where about 90% of most search’s end.

    If you look at the 14 results before me about 10 of them are large Web agencies. So, how is it that a newer business like mine can already compete with the bigger players? It’s a combination of:

    • SEO Website Development
    • Solid website content and updating it regularly (portfolio, blog, galleries, etc.)
    • Interaction on the Web (blogging, social media, external linking)
    • Backlinks (incoming links from other websites)
    • Time. Patience is a virtue with Search Engines, no one has the exact formula for instant results but there are best practices you can do to speed up the process.

    Point being, if SEO is done properly you’ll start to seeing better rankings in organic results which should create more leads for your company.

    Minnesota electrical company receives new web design

    August 30th, 2010 - by Jeff Wagner

    Local Minnesota company, Electrical Builders Inc., came to JWI looking for a fresh web design to better represent the professionalism of their company. Not only did we come up with a great look but we helped improve their search engine optimization with better programming and visible content.


    Electrical Builders Inc.

    One of the requests by EBI was to have a much more visible site with a lot more pictures of the different electrical services that they offer. With their being so many different areas of electrical construction having photos of the different services gives users & visitors a better idea of their capabilities.


    Electrical Services.

    Both Electrical Builders and JWI are extremely happy with the new look and improved online presence.

    jQuery Effects, and pure Awesomeness

    April 1st, 2010 - by Jeff Wagner

    If you aren’t using jQuery in some form or fashion with the websites you’re developing then you are most certainly missing out on some very cool effects. I’m using jquery scripts primarily because there are so many cool transitions or effects that work on most popular web browsers.

    jQuery Effects & Transitions


    I’ve put together a great collection of jQuery links & demos to so many effects I garuntee that you’ll wanna tie into your websites.

    Take a look and check them out, if you know of any others out there let me know. I’d like to add more to my personal collection.
