Search Engine Optimization Cost vs ROI

Entrepreneurs are often taken aback by the costs involved to launch an effective website presence that drives leads. Sometimes they just opt for the website hoping for the best. If you’ve engaged an ethical web developer, they will at the very least make sure your site is search engine friendly. But with today’s onslaught of businesses online, that simply isn’t enough. You truly must utilize Search Engine Optimization Strategies, including both on-site and off-site SEO in order to give your business the best chance of success. You simply won’t see a return on investment (ROI) if you decide not to have your site optimized and have your off-site SEO in place.Practically speaking you will not see an ROI for some time. Google and other search engines will index your site, but your authority status (a way of deeming your worthiness for 1st-page results) starts off with a measly 1 out of 100. It takes time to build that authority status. That’s where all the work we do comes in, building your authority status up assuring Google and other search engines of your worthiness to get listed closer to the first page of Google results.

On-site SEO

On-site SEO is when your optimization expert applies all SEO techniques on your website. This includes meta tag inclusion, optimization of long-tailed keywords within the content. Cross-linking with other pages within the website. Linking OUT to authoritative websites that cement the points you are making in your content. Applying ALT tags (alternative text descriptions) to all images within your website. Implementing SCHEMA markup. Making sure your site is responsive (for mobile viewing) and so much more. All these pieces of the search engine optimization puzzle which are necessary for optimal results can be found in a myriad of resources on the Internet including, Google Webmaster Tools, Moz, SEM Rush and much more. There are NO secrets to success, just hard work, and effort.

Off-site SEO, Social Media Signals, Link Building

Off-site SEO is the follow-up to complementing the on-site SEO that’s been performed. This includes company citations, which is a fancy name for business listings; social media profiles that are optimized for your keywords and market; content development and authoritative links that are coming into your site from authority websites.

A few words about link building

Optimally speaking, Google would like you to have such amazing content to offer the audience of the WWW, that websites will automatically link to you. However, if you’re not a celebrity and have a new website presence it just doesn’t work that way. We focus on building links that your top competitors have acquired and we verify whether we can get you listed on these sites as well. We will also do an industry search for appropriate links that your site may benefit from. Another avenue is to have your site featured in guest blog posts with links back to your website pages. As you can see this is a time-consuming process that requires a good deal of research. Think of link building as an art. You never want to get a site listed on a link farm or on a spammy website that may get a negative mark against your site. Links must be quality, logical and beneficial for both the link giver and your own website. If you decide to employ a link building program over a period of a few months (highly recommended), you will optimally acquire 4-5 links a month. The cost will range based on the time it takes to acquire the links, the content we provide for the link giver and any fees to content writers or editorial fees.
