Search Engine Optimization. Centiare listings that utilize semantic tags achieve higher search results rankings through a combination of relevance and linkage. Example:
The Church of the Loving Shepherd is located in West Chester, PA. Assume that you were driving by one day and only got a glimpse of the full name. Later, you searched Google using a pretty common method: city+name fragments, which in this case would be "West Chester Church Shepherd". Here's the result you would get:
See how the semantic tags recorded in the Church's Directory listing improves not only Google's search term relevance, but also triggers the correct address/contact information to be displayed?
In addition to context/relevance, semantic tags also improve overall rankings through the effect of Centiare's internal link-farming. That is, Directory listings, automatically generated summary reports (at the end of each listing) and cross-referenced ASK queries all serve to improve overall search rankings by providing multiple reference points.
The Church's listing was place at Centiare 4 weeks ago and this is the type of results they are already seeing. What type of optimization can you and/or your organization achieve using Centiare semantic features?
