Local SEO Audit & Services
I’m a technical SEO freelance expert based in Warrington with 10 years of experience working with and ranking websites. I provide SEO (Search Engine Optimization) and internet marketing services. Do you want more traffic to your website? I can optimize your website in order to reach more potential customers.
The internet is becoming an ever more important place for driving business. However, it’s also a very competitive place, so it’s very important to optimize your website. An optimized website will rank higher, which will increase the organic traffic of your website. This will increase the exposure of your business, potentially leading to more sales or leads.
SEO is still widely misunderstood, even by those who are experienced in the information technology (IT) industry. It requires very specific technical knowledge. This technical knowledge includes an understanding of how keywords are used, including competitive, local and long tail keywords. Making sure a website is indexed and whether it can be crawled by the search engines, to name a few examples.
Optimizing a website also includes the setting up of the site, so it loads quickly; the content itself, text and images. The readability and general aesthetics contribute to the general user experience (UX). These factors can increase user retention and reduce bounce rates. Other factors include how secure the website is, whether it has an (SSL) certificate, and how responsive the website is are all ranking factors. I use only white hat techniques to improve keyword ranking positions.
Local SEO in Warrington & Surrounding Area
Local SEO specifically involves competitor, keyword and general research in the local area and any relevant and near-by towns and cities. Your website is not the only way your business can be found online for local searches. We have business listings, for example, some of which are location-specific. These also need to be utilized or optimized.
White Hat SEO – Good SEO
White hat SEO is basically the good type, which doesn’t attempt to manipulate or deceive the search engines in order to improve site rankings.
Getting on the first page of google is not something that can be guaranteed. However, optimizing your website and improving your rankings can be. With that in mind, website rankings can be greatly influenced by search engine algorithm changes. It was once easy to manipulate those algorithms, but things have evolved, and the algorithms have become much smarter.
