FAQs about Professional
SEO Services

What’s a blog?

When you hear blog, the first thing you think of might be your niece in college who is majoring in creative writing sharing her stories online. But blogging has tremendous value for businesses, as well.

A blog post is essentially an article posted online as part of your website. These can be educational and authority building for your target market, and, more importantly, Google looks for frequent and consistent updates to your website to demonstrate your business is active and operational. Blog posts do just that.

While those blog posts are helping your company rise on the search results page, they also show your target market your value and authority within your industry.

Why do you need both organic and paid search engine rankings?

If your website is still making its way up from page 7, jumpstart visibility with a paid search result that guarantees you one of the top three spots on the page. At the very least, users start associating your name with the industry, but you will also drive new leads to your site. Then, when your website gets to page 1, you can reevaluate the benefits of the paid ads.

What’s the difference between organic and paid search engine results?

When you search for almost anything on Google, the first results often say “Ad” next to them. Those are paid search results, called Pay Per Click ads. If you’re like most people, you probably scroll past them to the listings that don’t say “ad.” Those are the organic search results. These have nothing to do with your social media presence, although those profiles will show up if they match the search terms.

Because most people skip the ads, organic search results are more valuable, but they’re not guaranteed: you need an optimized website and consistent blogging strategy to dominate organic results.

What is a search engine ranking?

You’ll hear digital marketers say, “your website is ranking for that term” or “we want to rank in the region.” That just means you want to be one of the top results on Google for that keyword.
