Whenever a website is developed, there are many SEO factors that should be implemented, but it is incredibly common place that there are further SEO improvements that can be made to the website for example:
These are just a few of the elements that often need improving to advance any websites SEO in Birmingham.
As a result of research by search engine companies, it is clear that the content quality and relevance is a highly important factor required by web users. As a result search engines value the content very highly as a search ranking factor, in fact 72% of marketers state that content creation is the most effective SEO tactic*. As a result edirect have built a full copywriting team, and it is key that as a company, if there is not the time for your in house staff to create your own copy, that you select an SEO company that can also provide high quality content writing.
References and links from other websites to yours provide search engines with an indication to the quality of your company and your websites content. It is key that a wider presence of your company and website is built online to ensure you build additional traffic to your site. This traffic will not necessarily be direct leads, but will build your brand and authority online.
It is quite common place that companies will use multiple outsource companies for various aspects of their online marketing, including web development, content writing, social media marketing etc. Any SEO company should have the expertise to provide SEO consultancy only, in circumstances where a company, where advice and support is provided, but the copy, design and development is delivered externally.
No marketing campaign is complete without the ability to track it’s performance and success. In fact that is one of the main aspects of online marketing that is more efficient than offline marketing, as every aspect of user behavior is measurable, and ROI on every campaign is easier to monitor and calculate. It also allows for further improvement of campaigns, ensuring that the effectiveness of any website page can be analysed, along with every keyword target, and campaigns can be adjusted accordingly.
Ensuring that your website converts website visitors to new leads, is now an essential part of SEO, search engines are always measuring the metrics on your website and will identify if yours was the last website a user visited and will improve your rankings accordingly. Of course ensuring that the conversion on your website is strong will also have a direct effect on the volume of sales and leads your website generates.
This is the latest consideration of any search optimisation company, it should be highly considered within the campaign, As within 2016, Google have now reported that 20% of android mobile searches are now conducted through voice search*. The campaigns can be optimised for this by ensuring that content created can lend itself to voice search across all available search assistants such as Google assistant, Siri, Amazon Alexa, it is clear within the industry that the use of voice search will continue to be a rising trend.
Regular reporting to the company should be provided by the SEO agency, it should lay out the clear results from the campaign, providing the increase in rankings for the keyword targets, and the resulting increase in traffic.
Local SEO is a very specific strain of SEO, with the use of Google maps, and local business listings, providing the optimisation process with it’s own set of rules. This is most beneficial for businesses with a shop front like bars and restaurants, or for local tradesmen like plumbers and builders. 72% of users who conduct a local search will visit a store within 5 miles*, and therefore it is key that the right users are targeted. As a guide to the potential search traffic, I have provided some search volumes for local terms below:
