Our team of SEO Experts work to bring more business to your business. From Blue Collar to Doctor’s Offices, we’ve been helping Athens businesses make their mark.
What is SEO (Search Engine Optimization) Anyway?
SEO stands for Search Engine Optimization. It’s the process of improving your site so that you can rank higher on Google when people search for products or services related to your business. By doing that, it means more visibility and potential customers for you.
Like most marketing elements, it’s a numbers game. The idea of SEO is that the more times we can put your website on the first page of the search engine results, the more visibility your business will get. The more that visitors see your links, the more likely they are to click on them, and the more visitors you’ll get which means the more customers will call you, buy from you, etc. This means more money!
The Elements Of SEO for Athens Businesses
While it’s widely accepted that there are over 200 ranking factors in the Google algorithm, this is a deceptive statement. There are actually more than 400 elements that are considered ranking factors (all with different weights) and there are at least 5 algorithms working behind the scenes whenever click enter on Google.
So, what are all the ranking factors for your Athens business?
We’d tell you but we’d have to kill you. Actually, if we knew them all, we’d probably be working for Google. Sure, there are basic things like meta descriptions, internal links, link building, etc. But here’s a more concise way to look at it:
Technical SEO
We live in an impatient world. It’s a well-known fact that if your website takes longer than 3-seconds to load, you’re losing potential customers before they ever get through your digital front door. This is one of the biggest elements in technical SEO.
It’s all about making sure that your website is coded correctly, loads fast, and doesn’t have broken links or anything else that will anger the Google Gods.
On-Page SEO Factors
This part of SEO has to do with what you actually have control over. We’ve all wanted to flick the ear of someone who said, “Content is king!” as if it was the wisest thing anyone has ever said, but, reluctantly, that person was correct. Your content is pretty dang important.
On-Page SEO is all about making sure that the content on your site is original (no duplicate content), well written, uses correct grammar and engages the audience. Of course, there’s a ton more to it than this, but you get the idea.
Off-Page SEO Factors
In a nutshell, this is about getting links to help elevate the authority of your site in Google’s eyes. If a site links back to yours, it’s considered a “like” or nod to your site’s credibility. People often think that getting as many backlinks as possible is the way to go, but in reality, backlinks are all about quality, not quantity.
SEO And Web Design Agency | More Business for Athens Businesses
We often wonder why web designers don’t seem to know much about SEO. It could be because it changes so rapidly that it’s tough to stay on top of it, but so many web design agencies don’t seem to even try.
The SEO strategy should be an integral part of your website design. Our team will work with you to make sure that users are getting a high-quality user experience from the start, including social media integration and content optimization—and everything in between. For more information on how we can help get leads for your business in Athens and increase sales, call today so our expert staff member can discuss what the best SEO strategy is for you.
