The Importance Of Search Engine Optimization For Your Brand

Have you ever dreamed of owning your own clothing line? Maybe you have already taken the leap and started branding your own clothing amongst your friends. Starting a clothing line is very competitive, and one of the most important things you can do is have your company's website catch the eyes of your target market. In order to do this, you must have the knowledge of proper internet branding, more commonly known as SEO or search engine optimization.

Search engine optimization is the process of improving the volume or quality of traffic to a web site or a web page (such as a blog) from search engines via "natural" or un-paid ("organic" or "algorithmic") search results, as opposed to other forms of search engine marketing (SEM) which may deal with paid inclusion. The theory is that the higher a site appears in the search results list, the more visitors it will receive from the search engine. SEO may target different kinds of search, including image search, local search, video search, and industry-specific vertical search engines. This gives a web site what is called "web presence".

Tips For Improving Your Website's SEO:

~Monitor your web traffic

~Use keywords throughout your website

~Link back to yourself

~Create a site map

~Avoid Flash

~Use Image Descriptions

~Social Media Distribution

~Link to other websites

~Create a blog

~Video marketing on You Tube

Creating a strong presence over the internet should be the first step to building your brand. Ultimately what you are trying to create is a place for your consumers to stay informed on your latest products and be visual attracted to your website. Creating banners for your homepage which offers promotions is an excellent way to grab the attention of the people viewing your website. The banners can then link to other product pages throughout the site and this will increase your SEO. Starting a new brand takes endurance, but with the proper internet marketing and SEO, we can guarantee you will see an increase in traffic for your website!

Consuul Places 7th At The Ultimate Boarder

The 3rd annual Ultimate Boarder Championship was a huge success. The top athletes in action sports competed in the event across 3 different venues.

The championship started out at Seaside Reef in San Diego. Rob Machado dominated the surfing competition and took 1st place. Team Consuul's surfer, Johnny Noris, had an awesome day and was able to get 3rd place.

The next leg of the event was the snowboarding competition which took place at Northstar at Lake Tahoe. Team Consuul's boarder, Lukias Cook, threw a huge backside 720 off a 60 foot jump in the competition, but it still wasn't quite good enough to move Consuul up the leader board.

The Skateboarding Competition was the final event of the Ultimate Boarder and was held at the Grand Sierra Resort & Casino in Reno, Nevada. Team Consuul's skater, Cayden Riebe, was going huge on the vert ramp all day, but skateboarding legends Christian Hosoi and Steve Caballero killed it as usual and took the top spots.

Consuul was proud to sponsor and be involved with the 3rd Ultimate Boarder Championship.

Consuul would like to congratulate all of the athletes and supporters who helped make the Ultimate Boarder an amazing event!

Ca$his of Shady Records is the newest member of Team Consuul

We are pleased to announce a new addition to the Consuul family. Cashis, of Shady Records, will soon be a household name across America. Cashis has done numerous features including artists such as Eminem, 50 Cent, Dr. Dre, Jay-Z, Obie Trice, Prodigy, Alchemist, Lloyd Banks, and more. His future is said to be a bright one, as he has a great image for marketing, a strong female and urban fanbase and crossover potential. Marshall Mathers (Eminem), Paul Rosenberg and Dart Parker have all been quoted in saying that Cashis is the primary focus and star of Shady Records.

Cashis was first showcased in mainstream rap when he was featured on 60% of Eminem's mixtape turned album, "Eminem Presents the Re-Up." Cahis also performed live on MTV's TRL and BET's 106 & Park alongside Eminem, 50 Cent, & Lloyd Banks. Although he featured on many tracks, his first solo release (the limited edition County Hound EP) was on May 22, 2007, which is being re-released due to popular demand. The video for his first single off the County Hound EP, "Lac Motion," was picked up by MTV & BET and was placed in MTV's regular rotation. The County Hound EP reached #1 on Billboard's "Top Heat Seekers" Chart, #37 on the "Top R&B/ Hip- Hop Albums" chart, and #106 on the "Billboard 200." He is currently working on his debut album, "The Art of Dying," which is scheduled to be released next month.

If you think you don't know who Ca$his is.. think again. Ca$his was featured in Eminem & 50 Cent's hit song "You Don't know."
