Getting a high ranking in results page of searches isn't a matter of luck, but is about understanding algorithms used by various companies and applying optimization techniques to greatly improve your ranking position.

Optimization, and specifically SEO, is our business - this is all we do. We don't design websites - there are better people than us to do this for you.

How do we do this? We continually track mathematical algorithms used, as these are continually being modified with different weightings being applied to various parameters. The two partners in our company are both Mathematicians with over 50 years experience in IT industry. This may give you some idea of why web designers don't optimise sites and we do.

So can we anyone guarantee number 1 spot on Google? Our answer is no. However, across a basket of companies, e.g. Google, MSN, Yahoo, Ask Jeeves, AltaVista, optimization can be achieved. In fact, we are so confident that we will guarantee that your company will appear on first page results of at least 3 of 5 companies shown above or you don't pay us. Yes, that's right - we don't want or need your money, unless we can provide you with this level of service. http://www.searchoptimisationengine.com

6. Online/Offline Auctions You can find lower prices on business supplies and equipment at online and offline auctions. I'm not saying all time, but before you go pay retail for these items try bidding on them first.

7. Plan Ahead Make a list of business supplies or equipment you'll need in future. Keep an eye out for stores that have big sales. Purchase supplies when they go on sale before you need them.

8. Used Stuff If your business equipment and supplies don't need to be new, buy them used. You can find used items at yard and garage sales, used stores, used stuff for sale message boards and newsgroups etc.

9. Negotiate You should always try negotiate a lower price for any business equipment or supplies. It doesn't hurt to try. Pretend you are talking to a salesman at a car lot.

10. Search You can always be searching for new suppliers for your business supplies and equipment. Look for suppliers with lower prices and better quality. Don't just be satisfied with a few.
