If you are an owner of e-commerce website, traffic volume might be a major nuance of your business. It is neither because the site is not user friendly enough nor because products are not attractive. In fact, you have fallen victim of search engine like Google, live.com and yahoo: they rank you on 50^th page so that no potential client would be patient enough to reach you.

If webs in the 90s mainly appealed to client, webs in 21^st century target at search engines. Alexa statistics show that show that among top 10 websites in the world, search engines take a large share with Google ranked 1^st , live.com 5^th , baidu.com 8^th. The power of keyboard is rising so quickly that any ambitious website could not overlook it. It is high time that one did SEO (Search Engine Optimization) to attract search engines’ attention.

So how does SEO work and what’s its commercial value? Google will crawl your blog to find contents and keywords and when Google finished crawling through your blog, the content from your blog will get indexed in a large database where researchers can retrieve your content by searching with keywords using the Google search engine. By adding relevant keywords in your articles, SEO try to achieve the highest position rank possible. SEO also establish back links which will drastically help you to achieve a higher Google page rank. Higher ranking means more business opportunity since almost every netizen use search engine to find information. SEO can:

1. Appeal to potential client using search engine to visit your site thus getting their target goods on your site.
2. If not selling goods yourself, you can take advantage of clickstream to recommend business partners.
3. Bulks of traffic volume can let more people know your brand and cooperate image thus achieving publicity success.
4. Clickstream and ranking are indexes of authority and potential of a site. The more visitors you get, the easier you’ll get sponsorship by advertising agencies.

In one word, SEO is a great promoter of business opportunity. The earlier you realize the commercial value of keyboard, the more you will reap from search engines.

One of our clients, owner of http://www.outsourcedmylife.com, did a nice review of BPOVIA on his blog at http://www.outsourcedmylife.com

From the review:

“One of the companies I’ve been working with in www.BPOVIA.com in China. The founder, James, is a great guy and was very prompt and professional with his communications with me. I’m still trying to get a feel for what I want done and how much time my projects will take, but I had a very important project that I’ve been putting off for years. Basically my grandfather wrote a book that was typed. About 150 copies were made back in the 1980’s and no soft copy exists. My task was to convert the hard copy to a soft copy.

China is celebrating her one-month countdown to Beijing Olympics, with the predominant accomplishment of Chinese women’s tennis in Wimbledon, we have the sufficient reasons to make the world convince that China athlete team will surly perform splendidly in this summer. Not only what we would achieve in the sport-related events, but also in the realms of economy, such as outsourcing service.

According to the recent news from Xinhua net, attributed to China’s market potential, rich labor resource, and continuous improvement in infrastructure, China is experiencing the rapid economic development of outsourcing service in the era of international industrial transfer.

Furthermore, the articles from the Economy Times tells us that influenced by the economic slowdown in the United States, the Business Process Outsourcing (BPO) sector is growing and cashing in on the opportunity of more business. For the BPO sector, the US slowdown is the melting in the pot to look for more business in terms of opportunity. BPOVIA is one of the industry leading companies, which hold the chance.

With the booming demands overseas, obviously, as the statistics demonstrates, including ITO (Information Technology Outsourcing) and BPO, China undertook outsourcing services valued at 2 billion U.S dollars in 2007. Of all outsourcing enterprises, 14.2 percent of enterprises have received the Capability Maturity Model Integration III Certification. More than 30 million employees work in service outsourcing enterprises, among which over 250,000 are junior college or college graduates. The staff from BPOVIA are all graduated from prominent universities, and many of them own the international education background.

Accounting for more than 60 percent of total outsourcing services, information technology outsourcing services was the major part of China’s outsourcing industry in 2007. In addition, basic technology service and system application service are the major part of China’s ITO. Comparing with ITO, supply chain management and business process operation are major parts of China’s BPO. BPOVIA is the company which provides the service both on ITO and BPO.

As the trend of a large number of U.S ITO and BPO sectors are turning their eyes to other economies and non-US geographies to fill more space and the models of successfully-run Indian medium sized enterprises, we can optimistically estimate that there would be scores of Bangalore appearing in China. For example, BPOVIA, headquartered in Nanjing, China, largely extend its clients and promote its service, during the recession of the U.S economy.

However, we should not neglect the problems on the imbalance development of outsourcing service. Outsourcing contracts in Jiangsu, Guangdong, Beijing, Fujian, Shanghai, and other places are worth more than 100 million U.S. dollars. They account for two-thirds of total outsourcing services. Fourteen outsourcing service bases assume 80.1% of the entire nation’s outsourcing services. What’ more, China’s main contract countries and regions are the United States and Japan, and the outsourcing industry is mainly concentrated in the information transmission, computer services and software industries, making up 53 percent. Meanwhile, manufacturing services accounted for 30.7 percent of total outsourcing services. The development of other service outsourcing industries lags behind. Moreover, foreign-invested enterprises are the main force undertaking outsourced services. Thus, it will cost us a long period to build a balanced-developing outsourcing service market and overtake the competitors from other countries. BPOVIA has established an excellent role model to the industry, which is devoted to provide ubiquitous service, with its unique work team and universal spirits.
