Search Engine Optimization

Search Engine Optimization (SEO) is a broad term that encompasses a lot of vital elements in getting your website found online. Local SEO means getting your website, brick-and-mortar business, or local services on those "near me" Google searches. Organic SEO means ranking nationally or globally for your online business and services.

What We Do

On-page Optimization

On-page optimization means creating quality content that is structured the way Google and other search engines like it and optimized with keywords and images that prove to those engines you are who you say you are and do what you say you do.

Technical Optimization

The technical side is where we make sure search engines, once they've found your site, can crawl and index pages. It's also where we make sure your site is mobile friendly (responsive), fast, and sending all the right signals search engines.

Metadata Optimization

Metadata optimization includes creating quality schema markup for the various pages and posts on your website, including eCommerce products. Closely intertwined with on-page, metadata focuses on how we tag and structure your content.

Ratings & Reviews

Ratings and reviews are an integral part of local and organic SEO. And while it's great to be able to display rave reviews on a slider on your site, the more useful location for them is on Google. We work with you to get those reviews from clients and can even manage less than stellar ones for you.

Keyword Research

Keyword research, which includes competitor and trend analysis, is the cornerstone piece for content creation and everything else we do for optimization. We dig deep and deliver big on this element to ensure a successful campaign that gets your website found by quality potential clients.

Content Creation

We know writing can be intimidating, even when you're writing about your own area of expertise. If content creation isn't your strong suit, we've got you covered. We will write everything your visitors will see, ensuring proper grammar, punctuation, and readability, all written in your own voice.
