Search engine optimization (SEO) is the process of improving the quality and quantity of website traffic to a website or a web page from search engines. SEO targets unpaid traffic (known as “natural” or “organic” results) rather than direct traffic or paid traffic. Unpaid traffic may originate from different kinds of searches, including image search, video search, academic search, news search, and industry-specific vertical search engines.
SEO (Search Engine Optimization) can increase exposure; it can drive targeted leads and get your business in front of thousands of potential customers who are already looking to buy your product or services. It can give you brand awareness and make sure that what people find when they search for you is what you want and not some negative rant from that one unhappy customer.
Search engine optimization is a powerful tool that when used effectively can skyrocket your business. This can be the difference between closing your doors or expanding.

All of the major platforms have changed and updated the way they work over the years. Although it’s hard to predict precisely what will happen, various sites have used data to make predictions. Most seem to agree that video content will continue to rise in popularity, as will niche social platforms. We’ll probably see more integration with technology, as well as more personalized content.
In 2019, the average social media user spent around 1 hour and 15 minutes per day on social media. eMarketer predicts that this average will increase by 8.8% in 2020 due to social distancing and people spending more time indoors during the pandemic. So we can expect that social media users will spend around 1 hour and 22 minutes on average using social media every day.
On most platforms, it’s best to post at least twice a week, but some social media outlets are an exception. Stories only last 24 hours, so you have the opportunity to create a sense of urgency and exclusivity with your content without being too excessive.
Engagement—the sum of reshares, likes, comments, and clicks—is a big signal of social success for many people. How do you get more people talking about and interacting with your brand on social media?
- Ask questions
- Share behind-the-scenes
- Run a contest
- Host a chat
- Follow & Like multiple posts.
- Share important business updates
Yes and No. Google encourages business owners to ask for reviews for their Google My Business. You cannot ask for a five star review according to Google’s review policy.
Yes we can, we have a email form with your direct review link. We also make phone calls in behalf of you to get them started but you you cannot ask for a 5 star review. We can get reviews for Google My Business, Facebook and other social media platforms.
Good question. If you have the budget I would say get your website, Facebook, Google My Business and another social media platforms done right away. But if you’re on a tight budget I would start with Facebook and if possible Google My Business at least until you have more money in your budget.
Yes we can but we will need some of your business information to gain access when we contact Google My Business’s help center via phone or email.
Reputation management refers to the influencing and controlling or concealing of an individual’s or group’s online reputation. In terms of online reputation management, it has become a factor that companies must now be more aware of how they are perceived by their audiences, whether target market or not. However, in the new world of online business and even within social media influencers, due to the competitive market, it is far more difficult to get noticed and popular due to how the algorithms work on social media. The more money a company has, the more marketing they can produce and the more money can be put into restoring or reiterating their reputations.
If you think if it this way: When you search the internet what search engine do you use? Most people us Google. If I had to choose from GMB or Yelp, hands down Google would win because they are user friendly, reviews are not geo-located, you get more free tools and the app is so much easier to use.
As soon as you get your business registered. Once you have your website or Facebook page you can start promoting your business which will help clients and customers find you better.
First things first, there’s no doubt that your business should be on social media, regardless of the industry. The purpose behind having a social media presence, however, may differ from one company to another.
With that out of the way, the bare minimum includes an account on Facebook, Instagram and Google My Business. From there you can expand on LinkedIn, Pinterest, Twitter and TikTok.
All businesses need a GMB for several reasons: 1) So you can utilize their free services for marketing. 2) Provide accurate information for your customers or clients. 3) Promote your business, specials and services that you provide. 4) To showcase your positive reviews because a positive online reputation is very important. 5) With a Q&A it saves you time from email & phone inquiries. 6) And much more…
- Most social media channels are free to use and its a great marketing tool for small businesses.
- Social media influences buying behavior.
- Social media is a key driver of traffic to your website.
- Customers expect and appreciate support via social media.
- People are likely already talking about your brand on social media.
Roughly 43% of TikTok’s global audience is between 18 and 24 years old. 32% of TikTok users are aged between 25 and 34. Only 3.4% of TikTok audience is older than 55. 138 million monthly active users are from the US.
While Instagram once held this coveted position, the platform’s growth has tapered off for a while. In fact, its US user growth rate dropped to 6.7% in 2019. Meanwhile, TikTok saw a 97.5% increase in its US user base. Granted, these numbers will decline as the hype dies down, projections still show that the platform will continue to see a double-digit growth rate in the coming years.
Facebook is typically enjoyed by a variety of ages. Users aged 18-49 use it the most, and women typically check Facebook more than men.
People usually check Twitter for news, trending topics or to keep up with brands they’re interested in. Young adults ages 18-29 are the engaged Twitter users. Twitter is one of the few social platforms where there are more male users.
Instagram is an effective social network for businesses with products or services that can be captured in a compelling photo or video. The main Instagram users are 35 years old or younger, and there are more women on this network than men.
Pinterest is similar to Instagram in that it is very visual. Women are more active on Pinterest than men, and this platform has the largest age range with a fairly equal distribution between ages 18-64.

You should have a business website for the same reason you order from Amazon, get a ride from Uber, and book lodging for your vacation through AirBnb. People rarely interact in person anymore. They look for answers online, schedule meetings online, and buy products online.
A domain name is the name of your website (aka your web address). Whether this exactly matches your business name or you got a bit more creative with it, buying it will prevent others from using it. You can purchase it from any domain name registrar (GoDaddy, BlueHost, Network Solutions, DreamHost, HostGator, and Domain are some popular ones). When choosing a registrar, take some time to research all costs (including upsells and hidden fees), as well as their ease of use and customer support.
A Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) certificate secures online transactions by encrypting information — both at rest and while in transit. This prevents unauthorized third parties from intercepting or accessing any user data.
This one’s more time consuming and requires a commitment to publish quality content on a regular basis. However, there are several benefits to having a blog: You’re providing useful content for your target audience. Solve some of their pain points for free. You also get the opportunity to educate your audience — about your products and services, about your industry, about ancillary or otherwise relevant topics. The more you post, the more you establish yourself as an industry expert. Finally, every blog post is a new page that will need to be ranked by search engines. Therefore, the more you publish, the more chances of popping up in a good placement on the internet.
Meta descriptions are the short summary or explanation of the content that shows up in SERPs under the title tag. Including well crafted ones in each of your web pages increases the likelihood that a web user will click on it. They also provide you with the opportunity to elaborate on what the site is about and to include secondary keywords that don’t fit into the title tag.
It’s important for business owners to know that building a business website and seeing results don’t happen overnight. On average, you shouldn’t expect business website results for at least 4 months. But if after 4 months your business hasn’t seen any of your desired results, it’s time to reevaluate your site.
