Common Questions About SEO

Get clear, straightforward answers to the most common questions about search engine optimization.
What is SEO, and why is it important for my business?
SEO, or Search Engine Optimization, is the process of improving your website’s visibility on search engines like Google. It's essential because higher visibility means more traffic to your site, which can result in more leads, conversions, and ultimately more revenue for your business.
How long does it take to see results from SEO efforts?
SEO is a long-term investment, and results typically start showing within 6-12 months (any business that offers less than a 6-month timeline is typically using black-hat SEO strategies). However, this can vary depending on your industry, competition, and the SEO strategy we implement.
What is the difference between organic search vs paid ads?
Organic search results are free listings that appear naturally because of good SEO practices, while paid ads are advertisements you pay for to appear at the top of search results. Organic results tend to build trust and are long-lasting, whereas paid ads offer instant visibility. In a perfect world, we recommend both SEO and Google Ads.
How do you determine which keywords to target for my site?
We conduct thorough keyword research to identify terms that your potential customers are searching for. This involves analyzing search volume, competition, and relevance to your business, so we target keywords that will drive the most valuable traffic to your site.
Can SEO help my local business rank better in local searches?
Absolutely! Local SEO strategies, such as optimizing your Google Business Profile and using location-based keywords, can help your business rank higher in local searches, making it easier for nearby customers to find you.
What factors influence my website's ranking in search engines?
Several factors impact rankings, including the quality of your content, backlinks to your site, website speed, mobile-friendliness, and how well your site is optimized for keywords. We focus on all these elements to boost your ranking.
How often should I update my website's content?
Regular updates are key to maintaining good SEO. We recommend reviewing and updating your content at least quarterly, but more frequent updates, especially through blog posts, can be very beneficial for SEO performance.
Will SEO work for my type of business or industry?
Yes, SEO works across virtually all industries. Whether you're in retail, services, or B2B, there’s an SEO strategy that can help your business grow by reaching the right audience.
