SEO for Small Businesses FAQs

SEO is very valuable for small businesses. An optimized site will position your business above your local competitors while establishing your business as a source of authority in your field.

SEO is important because it is the key to standing out among competitors. Many small businesses do not invest in SEO, and so even capitalizing on the fundamentals will put you at an immediate advantage.

SEO is important for every business. To determine if you are ready to begin, you should ensure you have the capacity to build a website and/or apply resources to optimizing it.

The most important SEO technique for a small business is local SEO. This includes ensuring that you appear in local listings with an optimized Google Business Profile. That will immediately make it easier for your customers to find you and will put you in the most favorable position to convert on that newfound visibility.

Local SEO specifically focuses on local search visibility for target keywords within your target geographic area. In other words, Local SEO is a hyper-focused SEO strategy making sure you achieve quantifiable results by connecting with potential customers within a target radius of your brick-and-mortar location(s).

Local SEO will increase visibility and optimize the experience in local searches. You will appear in local listings and more local features in the search results, all with a purposefully-optimized presence.

Some of the most common myths of SEO that many small businesses believe are:

  • Old techniques like keyword stuffing and link farming can still work
  • SEO should be conducted once and not revisited
  • Local SEO is not needed if traditional SEO work has been completed
  • Social media has no place in SEO efforts
  • Flashy images and videos are more valuable than content
  • There is no need to optimize the whole site, just select pages
It's time to take your digital strategy to the next level.
