Bing Updates Guidelines on

While most people use the word "Google" as a verb....there are other Search Engine's out there and the next biggest one would be Microsoft's Bing. The world's second most used search engine recently updated their Webmaster Guidelines/Best Practices and Bing minced no words when they said the following:

When creating content, make sure to create your content for real users and readers, not to entice search engines to rank your content better. Stuffing your content with specific keywords with the sole intent of artificially inflating the probability of ranking for specific search terms is in violation of our guidelines and can lead to demotion or even the delisting of your website from our search results.

Bing is making it quite clear that anyone attempting to use the old hat SEO trick of "Keyword Stuffing" is going to be penalized by having their web site either demoted or delisting from Bing's search results. Definitely not what you want to happen to your web site.

Fred mentioned "keyword stuffing" in his recent blog post "SEO - CONTENT DO'S AND DON'TS" and for good reason, it's a big deal! So if you want to make sure your website content and structure is up to snuff with the major search engines best practices, please feel free to contact xclntDesign for a free web consultation.

Some of our most recent work.

GSI

GSI

GSI is a low-voltage company that specializes in security and data cabling.

Their existing logo spelled out the company name; they wanted to take focus off the security part of their name to promote their other services, so we just went with the initials in a new logo, showing off a connected globe.

Mid-Florida Agencies

Mid-Florida Agencies

Brand new website for a local health insurance agent's office. They have existing corporate branding, so we took that and expanded on it. Our concept was to create something that was both professional and inviting. We used fun graphics and the corporate colors throughout.

Professional Waterfront Cleanup

Website redesign for a waterfront property cleanup company from Leesburg, Florida.

Professional Waterfront Cleanup has been a client of ours for a number of years, and every few years, we suggest a refresh of their website. This keeps the design modern, and the content can be changed to match the evolution of the company's business model.

Gator Clean

Gator Clean

Launch of a redesigned responsive website for a carpet and tile cleaning company in Lake County, Florida.

Gator Clean had a story to tell, and chose use to tell it. The owner's daughter had become ill, and during a trip to the ER, he was asked "Did you recently have your carpets cleaned?" When he answered yes, he was told that the disease his daughter had developed could have been caused by the toxic chemicals used by some carpet cleaners. He vowed to not let that happen to anyone else, so he started Gator Clean, using non-toxic cleaning agents to keep people and pets safe.

Got Watts Electric

Got Watts Electric

This was a complete redesign. Got Watts has been a long time client, and they recently refocused their business on electrification, or utility grid independence. So they need a new, dynamic site to reflect this change, and to focus on the main services they offer.
