Search Engine Optimisation – SEO Services
Every company wants to rank number one in the organic search engine results. Doing so for the right terms drives more traffic to your website and helps your site get discovered.
Search engines like Google have hundreds of factors that are taken into account when determining where a site ranks, these include everything from technical factors, to links the site has, to using the right words in the right places
Ranking at the top of the search engine results pages can take months and even years depending on how much competition there is for the keywords you want to rank for. The key is to make sure your target keywords are the right words.
There are billions of web pages and you likely have lots of other competitors who also want to be on the first page. That’s where we come in. We understand how search engines like Google work, and we help make it easy for you to navigate the complex world of SEO to bubble up to the top; but first, we start by researching keywords to determine the best words to use for your target audience.
Our Approach to SEO
SEO only works if you are using the right words, the ones your customers might use in your market. Search Engine Optimisation starts with understanding your prospective customers and the words they might use to search online..
Our process starts with our discovery session where we learn about your culture, products and services, goals, audience and differentiators. We’re going to dig deep to get to know your audience and their buying cycles, from the research phase through to retention.
SEO Audit
Next up, we audit your current site status to identify any technical issues that need to be fixed. We look at the words you currently rank for to benchmark your position, and we look at the companies that currently rank for those keywords. We also do an in-depth content audit of your site to understand your current traffic and the words people use to find your pages. This helps us to determine if it is possible to get where you need to be and what needs to be done to get you there.
SEO Roadmap
Taking into account the results of your audit we will then put together a roadmap for SEO success that is tailored to your unique business. The SEO roadmap may cover any or all of the following SEO services:
Foundational / On Page SEO
Keyword Research and Analysis
Our foundational SEO services are designed for new sites or those that haven’t yet been optimized. We’re going to work with you to brainstorm the keywords people might use at different points in your sales cycle. We will then map them back to the pages on your site to make sure we’ve covered all aspects of your products and services. From there we conduct in-depth keyword research to hone the words you use on each page and make recommendations on how to use them in all the right places.
SEO for Website Redesign
If your website has been around for a while and is in need of an update (check out our web development services) it is important to make sure you transfer as much of the current optimization to your new site. Often people get too focused on site design and don’t factor SEO into the design phase, which is a crucial mistake. Clients often come to us asking why traffic has tanked, despite the fact they have a fancy new website. Our SEO services will help you to set up your new site so that we pass on as much of the SEO ‘juice’ from your previous site as possible.
E-Commerce SEO
For small retail organisations, good product optimisation is key to helping your prospective customers discover your wares when they search in your local area. Not just that, but optimising your products properly will make it so much easier for you if you decide to synch with Facebook or Google to promote them on those platforms for advanced marketing campaigns.
Landing Pages That Convert
Getting the right traffic to your site or landing pages is half of the equation. Once the right visitors land on your site we want to make sure they convert. We provide website development services, landing page creation and conversion consulting to help them do that.
Technical SEO Services
We understand the technical aspect of SEO and if your site is broken we will work with your web developers or our own tech team to fix everything that needs to be fixed.
Search Engine Marketing Services (SEM) – Off Page SEO
Link Building Services
Google discovers web pages through the links that lead to and from them, as well as links within the site. We can help you to optimise your internal links, external links and help you get more backlinks to your site. Links are very valuable to your site online, the more you have from trusted, high-quality sites in your industry or area, the more chance you have of ranking higher.
Google Ads
SEO takes time and effort. If you want to show up on the first page fast, Google Ads might be the right solution for you. Learn more about our Google Ads services on our pay per click page.
Business Directories and Review Sites
Google My Business is another method to rank on the first page for the name of your business. We can help you claim and maintain your Google My Business listing, by setting it up the right way and linking it to Google Maps. We will guide you to get more reviews and to respond promptly to those you get.
