The rise of the web, and societies reliance upon it, has ultimately changed the face of business marketing over the past 5 years. Of course the old forms of marketing still have their place however, for most business sectors, online marketing that creates website leads and sales is now the most effective form of marketing. For example:
This is just a couple of examples and an initial SEO analysis of your opportunities and competition will provide you with the data you need to establish whether SEO is the ideal marketing channel for you.
While SEO has grown in its popularity over recent years, we still speak with many Marketing Directors and Managing Directors, who are still unsure of its process, purpose, and quantifiable ROI.
While the concept of these is too much to explain in one article, edirect and our staff do pride ourselves on ensuring we make our SEO service as transparent as possible, and over the course of several months of working with any company who are interested in understanding SEO in Birmingham, we have always been able to educate our clients to a clear level of understanding.
To begin with, below are some of the key elements that any good SEO company should provide within your campaign.
The key essential starting point to any SEO campaign. Research must be carried out to ensure there is a clear list of terms that the business should rank for in the search engines, while this process takes in to account many factors, the key points are that these terms must:
Unless your site was developed by an impressively forward thinking web design company, it is very common that during any SEO campaign there will several aspects of the development that can be improved to enhance search rankings, for example:
Recent changes within Google’s ranking algorithms have meant that content quality is now more critical than ever before. This means more than just ensuring that the content within your site is interesting and educational. There is also a high importance in ensuring that every page performing in search, so content must be matched to keyword research and well optimised.
Within the concept of modern day SEO, building the presence of a company on the web has changed a great deal. It is no longer the case that a simple link building campaign where you add links in blogs, forums, and article syndicates really helps your search rankings in any influential way, and if done badly can actually hurt the rankings of your website. It is now key that your business is promoted across the web in a professional and strategic way, ensuring sites that link to you are reputable and relevant to your industry. A good SEO campaign, should be able to identify these sites and create a structured method of obtaining mentions and links for your business.
While the most common SEO service provided, is a full service, where all work is carried out by the SEO Bournemouth Agency. There are many situations where the full service is not required by the client as many of the work aspects can be taken on by them in house. In these circumstances, an SEO agency should be able to provide the necessary advice required to ensure the client has a clear direction on content, promotion, website structure and optimisation.
Understanding the performance of your marketing campaigns is essential. We use analytics software that is connected to your site, a must to ensure this is possible. Google analytics is the most commonly used. On the Google site it is explained as:
“Digital analytics is the analysis of qualitative and quantitative data from your business and the competition to drive a continual improvement of the online experience that your customers and potential customers have which translates to your desired outcomes (both online and offline).”*
Understanding these metrics allows your SEO campaign to become continually more successful and gain better conversion rates.
