Benefits of SEO for Small Businesses

Improve Visibility

If your business is on page two of the search engine results, your prospective clients or customers most likely won’t even see your business as an option! Businesses at the top of search engine results are the ones getting the clicks and the traffic from the exact people looking for their services, so it’s essential to your success you’re among the top.

Boost Your Reputation

Google, Bing, and other search engines rank websites based on their relevancy and site functionality in order to provide the best results for users’ searches. Being a top-ranking website shows possible clients and customers that your business is relevant to what they need and helps you stand out as an expert or leader in your market.

Increase New Business

In order to succeed, your business requires a consistent flow of new customers or clients. While Facebook Ads and Google Ads are helpful, they will only take your business so far. You need traffic to your site from people who find you on their own, that you don’t have to pay for (also called organic traffic). Having an optimized website means an increase in organic traffic, allowing you to save on your marketing costs while seeing more customers.

Cost-Effective Marketing

SEO offers the best return on your investment by putting your business directly in front of the people looking for your products or services. Seeing your business as a top ranking result is more effective than most other marketing methods and requires only light upkeep to maintain your ranking.

Choosing Professional SEO Services

A common misconception about SEO is that you can optimize your website by adding some keywords, updating a blog, and calling it a day. The truth is, Google has around 200 criteria their algorithms use to rank websites. While keywords in your copy are certainly important in determining relevancy, factors including page load speed, mobile friendliness, internal and external links, your images, and so much more all play a vital role in how your website ranks.

For a small business owner, trying to optimize your website on your own can be overwhelming and confusing, not to mention time-consuming. At WP.Digital, our team optimizes your WordPress website from the ground-up as part of your package setup and continues maintaining and improving it as part of your monthly program.
