The importance of SEO, specifically ‘local SEO’.
To make everything understandable, we will start off with a brief introduction to SEO and what it entails. After, we will go over the benefits it can offer your business and provide tips on how you can utilize local SEO to optimize your online presence, build brand awareness, and ultimately, drive more revenue for your business!
What is SEO?
As a business owner, you’ve probably heard the term ‘SEO’ tossed around before. You might know it has something to do with your online presence and search engine results. But what exactly is SEO? SEO stands for Search Engine Optimization.
Why is SEO Important
Simply put, the right SEO strategy allows you to optimize your business’s online visibility. This is done by optimizing your company’s website to make it more easily discoverable by search engines like Google. By doing so, more people will get to see your website, which in turn will increase the chances of providing your detailing services to a greater number of people.
Paid and organic search results
We have just established that SEO aims to improve your website’s position in the search engine results pages, also known as SERPs. It is important to distinguish between natural, organic search results (SEO) and paid search when discussing search results. Let’s take a closer look at the key differences between the two:
- Position: Paid search results are ads that appear at the top of the SERP, while organic search results are the non-advertising listings that appear beneath them.
- Time: In paid search results, advertisers determine their positioning by bidding on specific keywords and phrases. In contrast, an algorithm determines organic search results, considering factors such as relevance, content quality, and user engagement.
- Payment: As the name suggests, paid search requires you to pay for traffic. This means you pay a fee every time a user clicks on your ad, unlike organic search.
- Keywords: In paid search results, advertisers base their positioning on bids for specific keywords and phrases, while organic search results are determined by an algorithm that considers factors such as relevance, content quality, and user engagement.
- Usability: Turning paid search campaigns on or off is easy, while maintaining and improving search rankings in organic search requires ongoing optimization efforts.
In short, paid search is a paid advertising strategy that involves bidding on keywords and phrases to appear at the top of the search results, while organic search is an unpaid strategy that involves optimizing website content and structure to rank higher in the middle of the SERP.
