The SEO process involved two steps: 1. Analysing key words to find the best suitable keywords that describe the essence of who and what AsgiSA EC is and does. Also, an evaluation of the links of websites that connect to the AsgiSA EC website and those links and keywords of similar organisations was done as part of this process. 2. Optimisation, which involves creating links to and from various websites was done and this is an ongoing process.

Media coverageThe media relations programme involved a number of activities such as developing and distributing media releases to target media, hosting media on trips to AsgiSA EC projects and facilitating telephonic and face-to-face interviews with the CEO.
Ongoing relationship building with target media has also been instrumental to the exposure received by AsgiSA EC during this period.
Media coverage from these activities generated R1, 5 million AVE (Advertising value equivalent: the rand value of exposure received from print, broadcast and online media).
Pitch Engine, an online media release distribution channel, has been utilised for the distribution of the latest forestry media release. This channel, utilised by global media houses, has been employed as a means to extend the reach of AsgiSA EC stories beyond the traditional media outlets. The forestry media release which was uploaded on the Pitch Engine website http://www.pitchengine.com/ has received 132 page views.
