With recession woes hitting an all time high, one wonders what would happen to SEO in the Philippines?
But before anything else let’s start with the massive job losses left and right from call centers.
In 2000 a wave of call centers gushed in the country holding promises of high-paying jobs and great benefits. Such big companies like Convergies, People Support and E-telecare sprouted in the different parts of the country. Business process outsourcing (BPO) developed into an all out economic enterprise resulting to more jobs and employment albeit unhealthy and dangerous (call center agents starts their shift at the wee hours of the night, and changing shifting hours of work almost every week for some call centers confusing the body clock and resulting to a health risks not to mention the exposure to dangerous elements at night) a lot of new graduates embraced this lifestyle due also to poverty and lack of work presented by the government.
Now forward to 2009, call centers have folded up left and right, E-telecare have been bought by a local industrial magnate, while others are being bought by other local companies. Thousands of jobs have been lost and thousands more to be lost at the end of the year.
Now enter SEO in the Philippines, I have to say that this is the fastest growing career in the country. Not only because companies here and abroad have decided to use the power of the internet and the biggest search engine (Google) to expand their marketing and advertising.
The goal here for starters is that SEO specialists will optimize your site for more exposure in the search engines meaning making your site appear in the front page results of Google using search key words ergo more clicks to your site and MORE MONEY!
Other than it is cheaper compared to television advertising that could go up to thousands depending on time slots and programs a simple website optimization can reach a wider audience (internationally) given the steady rise in internet connections and use of computers in households and schools.
SEO in the Philippines is steadily overcoming call centers and because Filipinos can work in the morning given the flexibility of search engines, it is more healthy not to mention dynamic and more intellectually stimulating. It can also be learned by anybody and anyone.
So right now if you want to save your business and your company as well as your clients go hire an SEO specialist now. because SEO in the Philippines is the new saving grace of BPO.
