FAQ

SEO involves using various internal and external techniques to improve the ranking of a website within major search engines such as Google. Search engine optimisation covers everything from researching high value search phrases, making a site more user and search engine friendly, to building links and increasing a websites conversion (sales, leads, newsletter sign ups).

Most website traffic is controlled by the major search engines – Google, Yahoo and Bing. If your website can’t be found within their databases you’re missing out on powerful search traffic. SEO helps to generate targeted traffic to your site that helps to increase sales, enquiries and exposure.

Search engines are always trying to return the most relevant results to their users. SEO helps the search engines discover and rank your website so your target market can easily find it. The online market is becoming more and more competitive which is why businesses that take advantage of search engine optimisation will get more visitors and customers.

Keyword research is a fundamental part of online marketing. Keyword research, at its essence, is market research. It tells you what people are interested in, and in what relative numbers. Better yet, it reveals the actual language people are using when they are searching for your products / services online.

We don’t limit the number of keywords we target for your SEO campaign. Instead we target all valuable keywords. We will make recommendations on how many keywords you need to target to get the desired results. It’s important that you target the right keywords, and not just every keyword.

We aim to deliver results as quickly as possible and most of our clients begin to see improvements in as little as 30 days. Solid improvements usually take 3 – 6 months as your website gains more authority and relevance (in the eyes of Google). This is a guideline and it may take longer depending on your unique situation and SEO plan.

In short “for as long as you want to achieve results”. SEO is a long term marketing strategy that requires ongoing work to both obtain and maintain your results. This is especially true of competitive industries where your competitors also have SEO strategies. You may stop your SEO program if you choose to, however if you’re getting exceptional results would it make sense?

Everything we do is proven, tracked and doesn’t violate search engine guidelines to ensure you continue to get results long term. This also helps to future proof your business from any search engine algorithm updates that roll out.
