Here at The Website Guy, we offer affordable small business on-page search engine optimization (SEO) services. Step 1: Local audit and link building: A Local Citation Cleanup (if needed) should be implemented. This ensures the local backlink profiles you have out there are consistent and correct in their current information. We have access to an excellent tool to gain more local links that can help with this.
Step 2: Run an On-Page Website SEO Audit: We have access to SEO software that will scan your website, and give a to do list based on the number of hours per month you want to put into SEO. We call it DIFY SEO at a DIY level. That is why it is so inexpensive by comparison. We can help with this.
Step 3: Add blog content to your website: Adding blog posts for relevant subjects on a monthly basis not only gives fresh content for the search engines to read, but each page can be optimized for a different set of keywords. This is a good thing. We can help with this via AI written posts.
Our process for on going SEO: After you sign up for an account, we'll add you to our SEO software as the 1st step of the onboarding process. The software will audit the website and walk us through the steps to know what needs to be fixed on each page of the website (as well as your Google Maps listing) to rank for what keywords are best. If we manage the website, we can make the updates as part of the plan. Each month you'll receive a comprehensive report of what needs to be done, what has been done, where the website ranks, and the traffic that is coming in and from where. Information from Google Analytics as well as Google Webmaster Tools is added. We can also monitor your websites uptime and security.
Next is Local Search Engine Marketing (SEM) audit to ensure local listings are abundant and consistent and correct. MOZ Local is our favorite tool to do this. We can help set this up as part of our account and monitor it monthly.
* Then we'll work on blog content. Together we'll come up with relevant topics, and the SEO software we use writes an AI writtenpost that passes SEO standards. It is up to you to "vet" the accuracy of the post with your experience. Again, if we manage the website, we'll upload the post once approved. Monthly AI posts are included with on-going SEO. If you want professionally written blog posts, we can send a referral for that at full price. Price to upload blog posts not written by us via AI is simply the normal website maintenance cost of $75/hour (estimate 1 hour per post). Be sure to ask about our blog syndication, link outreach & press release services for additional search engine authority and visibility.
At a minimum, we suggest the starting with the local SEO links package, then if the budget allows - add ongoing SEO and monthly blog posts for a total of $265/mo. A good value for the price as it covers the foundation of monthly SEO - at an affordable price.
We can also help with social media. Content creation and biweekly posts (2 posts / week - boosted on FB / IG at $280 / month or 1 post / week at $140 / month) (plus your budget cost of paid boosting - paid directly by you - ie: $5/post for additional visibility). Then, as budget allows, look at a press release and monthly link outreach / guest post once a quarter for a little boost. However, it does take time and rank / traffic cannot be - in good conscience - guaranteed, but delivery of work done can.
