Tidal Research Catapults SportsMemorabilia.com to the Top of Google, MSN

Tidal Research is pleased to announce a very successful client engagement with online retailer www.sportsmemorabilia.com. Since engaging with Sportsmemorabilia.com, Tidal Research, LLC. has successfully ranked their client at the top of highly competitive search engines Google and MSN. On Google, ultra-targeted item keywords like “Walter Payton jersey” and “Mark Messier autographs” consistently yield top-5 results, and the specific nature of these searches leads directly to sales. Additionally, the client is thrilled with how quickly www.TidalResearch.com implemented their optimized web design; within three months, Tidal Research catapulted their selected keywords into the MSN top-5, including valuable category definitions like “sports memorabilia,” “baseball memorabilia” and “football memorabilia.”

“Over the long term, I expect Tidal’s efforts to account for 25-30% of our total sales, said Matt Thompson of SportsMemorabilia.com. “This is far and away the best marketing investment we’ve ever made.”

www.TidalResearch.com uses a unique, proprietary SEO tool to achieve these rapid results for all of their clients. By analyzing over ten million keywords along multiple dimensions, Tidal successfully identified which commonly-searched keywords have the highest likelihood of delivering a large volume of targeted visitors to the client’s site. The result: Tidal Research unearthed over 10,000 high-quality keywords for SportsMemorabilia.com. Tidal Research then consulted with the client to make SportsMemorabilia.com search-engine friendly, including optimization of metatags, H1 tags, content, keyword density, alt text and sitemaps. Next, Tidal Research posted several high-quality inbound links from Tidal’s proprietary network of high-pagerank Websites. Tidal Research then submitted the Website to over 8,500 search engines and directories. The result? SportsMemorabilia.com is getting multiple sales each day as a direct result of Tidal Research’s optimization work.

“And these results represent only a fraction of the results we’ll deliver over the next six months,” says Paul Nute, a co-founder of Tidal Research. “In 2006, we’re confident we’ll get them front-page placement on Google, Yahoo and MSN for a vast majority of their choice keywords.”
