SEO Service FAQs
Is Google Ads or SEO Best?
They both work, and bring in targetted web traffic. In a perfect situation any business would want two or three listings on page one of Google – one in the Ads, one in Maps, one in the organic listings. I don’t see SEO and PPC as competition. Everything comes down to what works best for your business right now, and where you want to be in the next 9 – 12 months. That’s the reason I recommend we have a chat. By doing this I can provide you some ideas that may help you get clarity on what will be most effective for your business.
Having said that, if there was no imminent danger to my business and had to pick one it would be SEO traffic. SEO traffic is often referred to as “free” traffic, because you don’t pay search engines for the visitors coming to your website. Plus, there are no limits to what you can rank for, way beyond what a Google Ads budget could deliver.
With paid visitors you are bidding on certain keywords, so you lose out on a huge amount of potential traffic. Also, you are limited by how much you are willing to pay – once your ad budget is used up for the day you won’t get seen by anyone until the next day.
However the biggest benefit I see is that a well done SEO campaign will strengthen the authority of your domain name in the eyes of Google and they begin to trust you more. Your website starts to rank for multiple search phrases, and you become a top dog in your field. You’ve most likely seen that – particular sites keep showing up for searches in certain industries or topics. That is authority – SEO can help you achieve that, but paid ads never will.
An authoritative website, that is relied upon by Google, is a major asset as part of your business.
How Will I Know If The SEO Is Working?
At the beginning of your SEO campaign I will spend time researching keywords. This helps me see what search phrases your potential customers are looking for on Google. A lot of these will be obvious, but I always manage to find some “gems”. I then check and see where your website is currently ranking for these terms on {GoogleGoogle’s results}, and the strength of your competition. We agree what keywords we will be going after and those are what I work to improve your site’s visibility for.
Our target terms are added to a rank tracking software, which monitors which position your website is performing for the terms. I check this daily, and every Monday morning you will receive a full report showing where your website is ranking, and you will be able to monitor progress.
In the end, however, SEO is all about getting more (and the correct type of) visitors to your website. Assuming your website meets the needs of visitors, you will see a rise in phone calls, contact form and email enquiries, and footfall (if you have that kind of business).
How Long Does SEO Take To Work?
Having said that, I normally see positive movement for my clients within the first few weeks of a campaign, but typically with SEO you are taking in timeframes of months to get solid and stable rankings. But, it is totally worth it. If you can rank highly and stay there it can positively transform (and protect) your business. I have seen it many, many times over the years.
It depends on where you are presently ranking, the strength and relevance (from a Google-perspective) of your domain, as well as the level of competition you are up against. Given how specific it is, that’s why I suggest contacting me so I can do a {quick fast} audit (at no charge). This offers you a picture of where you are and also what you can realistically anticipate, and how long it may take.
