SEO (search engine optimization) is the process in getting your business to show up on Google when customers search for your business name and your targeted keywords.

Trying to do your own SEO is the equivalent of reading a few articles in “Popular Mechanics” and then trying to repair your car yourself or taking it to the guy advertising on “Craigs List“. This won’t end well.

SEO is a long term advertising strategy that produces massively if done properly. SEO has replaced the “Yellow Pages” and is the way things are done today. Before the internet age when Google came on the scene and transformed the way we search for things, the way everyone did it was the Yellow Pages, back then the way to get high rankings in the Yellow Pages was to name your business something like AAA Towing to get to the top of the list. Now it’s done thru Google’s ever changing algorithms on both your website and Google Maps which we are expert at.

The Yellow Pages start out at around $300 per month for single line text ads on up to $2000 a month and then some for full page advertisements! Believe it or not a lot of business’s are still going this route when everyone knows if your looking for something you just “Google it” on your computer or most likely on your phone.

SEO Scams To Watch Out For In 2018

By appleguy SEO Scams Comments Off

SEO is the new Yellow Pages and there are many “so called marketing companies” looking to make a fast buck. Here are a few things to watch out for: They will promise the moon, they will inundate you with reports showing you all the benefits of their service. Unfortunately many business owners fail to do their research and just accept this as a job well done. We have software which will generate reports but we tell our clients, don’t focus on reports, focus on your keywords! For instance: We rank #1 for this keyword > “New York City Gardener”

A new client of ours was using a “so called marketing company” and they changed the phone number on his Google Business page, making him think that the calls that they were getting were from his website. So unethical, and they gave him a list of like 400 keywords which they said he would be ranking for. So basically they just tell you what you want to hear. We tell our clients SEO is a marathon and not a sprint! We do see results in the first few months for instance: We were able to get our client > Northwest Petroleum Inc to the top of the second page in a month for “Oil and Gas Investment Companies“. In less than a month! Today is Halloween Oct. 31, 2018. If you read this after November 15th you will notice that they are now 1st page on Google for their targeted keyword.
