Most Frequent Questions

If you own a business or manage a website of any kind, you likely want target audiences to visit it. SEO is important because it’s specifically aimed at helping do just this; improve the online presence and traffic for a website.

SEO helps you show up at the most important stage of your customer’s journey, when they are actively looking for products and services you offer, or resources and information for which you have expert insights.

Our SEO approach calls for segmenting organic search traffic/queries, and therefore website engagement, into 1 of 4 buckets, Google calls these query categories “micro-moments:”
  1. “I want to know”
  2. “I want to go”
  3. “I want to do”
  4. “I want to buy”
We leverage industry trends and insights on the search behavior from these micro-moments to guide on-page optimization strategy for relevant pages, to build funnels, and to segment users to appropriate landing pages that are hyper-relevant to their query. 
 
As an example, for an eCommerce client, our keyword research and focus may center around “I want to buy” intent/queries. As a result, we would optimize intent/action-based pages (product pages) around purchase-related keyword queries and topics to best serve the user and improve relevance with Google. 
 
From each query, we can extrapolate intent. Furthermore, each page should serve a very specific function and play a unique role in the user’s buyer’s journey whether they are in the awareness, consideration, or decision stage. 
 
A homepage, as another example, is typically serving branded/reputation-based keyword queries and search intent, and aligns with the decision stage of the buyer’s journey.
 
A blog post, for example, serves education-based keyword queries and search intent, and aligns with the awareness and consideration stages of the buyer’s journey. 
 
We work to understand how we can best position the website to serve users with relevant content at the optimal stage of their journey, identify what KPI’s should we be measuring to demonstrate increased engagement, and focus on how can we improve performance over time.

The Beginning (0-6 months): 

The first 6 months of any SEO effort is almost always exclusively dedicated to fixing mistakes, fine tuning, and closing the gap between what your website has in place and current SEO best practices.

Once completed, these efforts can have ongoing and compounding benefits for years to come. The newly accessible and optimized pages start earning rankings and traffic, which foster more links, more exposure, more sharing, and more business. 

The Turning Point (6-18 months):

Eventually, the list of actionable, immediate fixes, and optimizations depletes. At this point, your website will hit an “SEO Plateau.”

In order to reach the next growth plateau (between campaign months 6-18), you must invest in new strategies, such as:
