What To Expect From GoBoost Sites SEO
You joined GoBoost Sites to bring in business, and a big part of how we help do that is SEO (Search Engine Optimization). Here’s what we do and what to expect in the coming months.
97% of consumers have used a search engine like Google or Bing to find a local service at least once, and 54% of them are doing it monthly. When a potential customer searches for, say “HVAC contractor near me,” search engines provide a list. The closer you are to the top of that list, the more people will visit your site.
Your Sites website is designed to be search-engine friendly. That means that it is set up in a format that search engines are familiar with and can pull data from. When a search engine can crawl your website with ease, it puts you higher up in the list of sites when someone searches for your services. The first thing that Sites does is make sure Google can easily discover your website with carefully crafted on-page and technical SEO.
Some of the SEO Best Practices that GoBoost website implements include:
- Responsive design - a website that works on any device
- Great user experience - clean layout, fast loading, responsive, simple navigation, eye-catching hover features
- Clear contact info - so search engines can connect you with other sites and services AND so your customers can find you
- Sitemaps - what search engines need to add you to results and rankings
- Service area map - helps boost local SEO
- Call to action - tells the customer to take a specified action
- No text walls - condensing information into quick bites to avoid overwhelming potential customers
- Combining on-page, off-page, and technical SEO
Google functions even better when your company is registered with their system. That’s why GoBoost Sites comes with a free Google My Business account set-up and management. In addition, we set your website up with Google Search Console, which helps you monitor, maintain, and troubleshoot your site's presence in Google Search results. Reach out to the GoBoost Sites Support Team (support@goboost.com) when you’re ready to get started.
All of these services are set up to provide you with the best possible results, but it’s important to know that “no one can guarantee a #1 ranking on Google.” And that’s from Google themselves! If a company is promising you that, they’re selling you something impossible. What GoBoost Sites does instead, is empower your company to be competitive in your local market and get a bigger piece of the pie than you’re currently getting. In some markets, we can get you to the number one search result with a few changes, on a fairly consistent basis. In other markets, usually in dense city markets, that search result hierarchy changes and becomes more sensitive to the location of the searcher.
Keep in mind that “good SEO takes time, thought and consistency to cultivate and maintain.” Algorithms change yearly. Competitors start and stop their SEO efforts. Good and bad reviews happen. GoBoost Sites can help you stay on top of it all and keep your ranking as high as possible. There’s simply no shortcut to success. In fact, those who prioritize speed over quality usually end up hurting in the end. The good news: The work you put in now to make sure your SEO is top-notch is likely to benefit your brand for months and even years to come.
