What is SEO

Search Engine Optimization gives your website an edge over your competition. Search Engines determine where your website is found online based on their unique algorithms. If your site follows what search engines want to see, your website will receive better results. This could mean adjusting many different things from the keywords to the speed of the server hosting your website.

SEO can be an ongoing process for websites that continually have new information or it can be a one time thing for a website that is in a less competitive industry. Don’t be fooled by SEO companies that tell you have to pay a monthly fee if you’re not in a very competitive market. But also keep in mind that Search Engines are continually refining their algorithms to keep up with the changes in the market and to stay ahead of spammers who find holes to exploit within the algorithm. It is important to know your market and the weight of your competition online. We will help you decide if you need a little help or a lot – and we’ll help you to know the difference.

What would SEO do for your website?
Proper SEO would give search engines all the information they need to categorize your website as relevant to your local target searches. SEO would find holes in meta data like missing keywords or missing alt text. Full SEO will even work on the speed of a website which can give you just enough of an edge over your competition.

What is Local Search

More than 80% of people search locally first for products or services online. That means that your business needs to be found on the front page of the search results for your area. There are multiple resources that may help you land there. Each search engine has a maps type of tool that can include a profile for your business. There are directories that sometimes sneak to the first page, and there are SEO techniques that can be done to your website to help with natural search placement. The bottom line is that we can get you there.

Google Places
It is necessary for every business to have a Google places listing. Ever since mid 2010, Google’s search tools default to the user’s local area first, as a result, the emphasis on making sure your business pays attention to its local search results must be a priority. We make sure your Google places listing is posted, verified, and accurate, and will work hard to remove any multiple listings that may exist from past attempts at adding your business to Google maps.

There are features to take advantage of with Google places, such as adding photos, adding video, encouraging reviews of your business, and more. We can manage your Google Places paid activities too, such as the download features or adding menus. Let us optimize your Google Places page so we can help you take advantage of all the features available to you.
