It’s important to consider where your company is in the rankings when people search online for products or services in your space. If you aren’t on the front page of Google or Bing, there’s a good chance your competitors are—and they are taking business away from you. These days, most people search online when they need a product or service. If you aren’t there, you are missing all of that traffic.
You may know you need to boost your online presence, and you may even know that SEO is the key to you getting more traffic. But what exactly is SEO? And is it free?
Below is more information about what SEO is, what it consists of, and whether or not SEO is free…
The short answer is that SEO stands for “Search Engine Optimization.” What it actually is, though, is a bit more complicated…
Essentially, SEO is a group of tools and methods used to boost the rankings of a website in search engines like Google and Bing. If SEO is properly optimized, the website will shoot to the top of the rankings. If not, it may fall to the bottom of the first page or worse—more pages down the line.
To ensure your website gets in front of your potential customers, you’ll need to consider your SEO strategy and implement it effectively.
When it comes to the aspects of SEO, these include:
While each of these tools can help on their own to give you a boost in SEO, taking advantage of multiple SEO tools will increase your likelihood of moving up search engine rankings. If you are good at SEO, you’ll be able to use these aspects of SEO together to get the best results possible.
SEO, technically, is free. SEO itself isn’t a specific software or hardware that you purchase. Instead, it is a specific set of tools, skills, and more that help you to improve the rankings of your website. Some of these tools and skills are easy to learn. Others are more complex.
With that said, there are a few things that will go into the “cost” of SEO, if you want to get the best results possible. Below are some of the top expenses associated with SEO…
While SEO isn’t a “specific” software, there are software tools that you can take advantage of to improve your SEO. Some of them, like Google Analytics and Google Keyword Planner, are actually provided by the search engines themselves! Other tools for keyword research, scheduling, and more cost money.
You’ll want to research which tools will help you to get the best results, then learn more about how to use each of these tools.
Learning to become an SEO expert requires a certain level of education. Higher-level concepts may be easy to grasp, but using tools, best practices, and implementation is far more difficult.
Education will cost money. You can purchase an online course for a reasonable price and learn more. If you do that, though, you’ll need to consider another resource you are burning through…
While time isn’t technically money, it kind of is. If you run a business, you are busy. You don’t have a lot of time to focus on other things. SEO will take not only dozens of hours to learn, but also a lot of practice to properly implement.
You’ll need to ask yourself if it’s worth all of this time, money, and effort when there is another option…
Yes, hiring an SEO company will cost money. What is the tradeoff? You save time and energy, while investing in a resource that helps you to make more money.
