What is SEO?
It is an acronym that stands for “search engine optimization.” SEO simply means the process of improving your website to increase its visibility for relevant searches.
What are your goals?
First, define them:
- Are you looking for qualified leads, or trying to sell products?
- Are you trying to expand awareness of your brand, or convert a highly specific audience?
What type of results can I expect?
The key performance indicators we look at are organic website traffic and search engine rankings. We will track this each month and report it to you.
How long will it take to see results?
It can take up to 6-12 months to get on the first page of search engines. It depends on how competitive your industry is and the keywords we are targeting. Our goal would be to show you monthly increases in your organic traffic and rankings.
How often will I get a report?
