I would like to wish you a Happy New Year. I’m so grateful for my loyal customers and look forward to continued growth in 2020. My clients vary tremendously by industry and location, but the basics of website design, advertising and SEO can be applied to any industry. A visually attractive, informative and SEO optimized website is the best investment you can make in your company.
Website Tips for 2020
Google has over 90% of the search market. The best thing you can do for your companies reputation on the web is to focus on what Google looks for in a company. Google is all about business reputation. First and foremost your business website should be optimized to target the keywords your customers are searching for. Once that is accomplished Google looks at many other factors. Your Google My Business profile should be fully optimized and reviewed on a regular basis. Also, make sure to optimize your Bing Places For Business profile.
Google loves fresh content on your website. The best way to accomplish this is with a consistently updated blog. Social Media interaction is also a huge ranking factor. You should have business profiles on Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, LinkedIn and Pinterest. I typically connect my client’s blogs with their social media profiles. Multi-platform posting tools like Buffer are essential. I also recommend following other companies in your industry for inspiration and additional followers.
Your business information should be in as many databases as possible. Google gives credit for backlinks, which are links to your website from credible sources. The best way to get your business information out there is to use a tool such as BrightLocal’s Citation Builder. This ensures your business name, address, phone number, hours, website URL, description and images are consistent across the internet. I’ve seen clients rankings jump multiple positions after a BrightLocal campaign.
I can go on and on but the things I’ve listed above should a priority for your company in 2020. If you’re looking for a new website, have an existing website, need some SEO improvement, graphic design, or advertising please contact me today. I’d love the opportunity to help your business improve its web presence.
