How much does your service cost?
It depends. Is your website optimized for search engines? Do you have a Google penalty from a prior SEO that has caused your website to drop significantly in the rankings? Or, do you have a brand new business? Are you in a highly competitive market and looking to reach the first position on Google? Or, do you own a less competitive business in a small city? There are many factors to take into account before determining the monthly pricing.

What is SEO?
SEO stands for Search Engine Optimization. It is the practice of optimizing your website for the best results on Google, Yahoo, and Bing. We follow the Google Webmaster Guidelines and leverage many years of experience in search engine optimization to implement our winning SEO methodology. Building out an extensive list of industry specific keywords is crucial to our client’s success. Ranking your keywords at the top of the search results and helping to convert those visitors to phone calls and lead form submissions, are our primary objectives.
Will you update our website with content and pictures?
Yes. We build SEO friendly websites on the intuitive WordPress platform. WordPress is now used by over 75 million sites around the globe and is an open source software. In conjunction with WordPress, we also utilize the Genesis Framework, which is great for SEO, mobile devices, and extensibility. We will keep your website updated and help with the ongoing maintenance of your website.

How will we be able to track our progress and know that you are working on our SEO marketing each month?
At the end of each month, our team will prepare a detailed monthly report that will track your top keyword rankings and site traffic. We provide custom SEO reporting to our clients on a monthly basis to remain accountable for the investment you’ve entrusted to us. If we are doing our jobs effectively, you should notice a significant difference in the number of phone calls and leads you’re receiving from your small business website.
How long does it take to get to the top of search?
The placement of your website on major search engines like Google or Bing depend on many SEO factors.

You should expect 3-6 months before significant ROI can be attained.
