How the real SEO magic happens...we get busy

with all the details to get real results.

On-page SEO

  • Keyword placement

    In-Depth Keyword Research Using Multiple Tools: We use 3-4 top industry tools for comprehensive keyword research. By comparing various metrics like search volume, keyword difficulty, cost-per-click (CPC), and competitiveness, we identify the best opportunities. We create a detailed keyword strategy based on the data and trends collected from these tools.


    Tailored Keyword Research for Different Needs: Our keyword research goes beyond general terms. We conduct in-depth research specifically for:


    Different Services: Targeting keywords for specific service offerings to capture relevant traffic.


    Location Pages: For local SEO, we identify geo-targeted keywords to optimize location pages, ensuring high visibility in local searches.


    Blog Posts: Researching long-tail keywords and topic clusters for blog content, ensuring alignment with user search intent and SEO trends.


    Comparing Keyword Metrics to Develop a Strategy: After gathering keyword data, we compare different metrics to refine the final keyword selection. Our goal is to balance high search volume and lower competition keywords to create a well-rounded strategy for maximum SEO impact.


    Strategic Keyword Placement: Once we finalize our keyword list, we integrate primary and secondary keywords across the content, ensuring a natural flow while optimizing for search engines.


    LSI Keywords (Latent Semantic Indexing): Include LSI keywords (related terms and phrases) naturally throughout the content to help search engines understand the context of the page.

  • Meta-tag optimization

    Write Unique, Descriptive Titles: Craft unique title tags for each page, staying under 60 characters. Ensure the primary keyword is placed toward the beginning of the title tag.


    Engaging and Click-Worthy: Use action-oriented language and include emotional triggers where appropriate to improve the click-through rate (CTR) from search engine results pages (SERPs).


    Use Proper Heading Hierarchy: Structure content using header tags (H1, H2, H3) for better readability and SEO. The H1 tag should contain the primary keyword and be used only once per page. H2 and H3 tags should organize content into subsections, improving structure for users and search engines.


    Incorporate Keywords in Headings: Include keywords and LSI terms naturally in H2 and H3 tags to reinforce the topic and improve content relevancy.


    Write Compelling Meta Descriptions: Although meta descriptions don’t directly impact rankings, they influence CTR, which can indirectly boost rankings. Ensure the meta description is under 160 characters and includes the primary keyword and a clear call to action.


    Highlight Value Proposition: Focus on what makes the content valuable to the reader and include terms that encourage engagement.


    Create SEO-Friendly URLs: Keep URLs short, descriptive, and keyword-rich, avoiding unnecessary numbers or symbols. Use hyphens to separate words and eliminate stop words.


    Avoid Dynamic URLs: Ensure URLs are static (e.g., example.com/product-category) rather than dynamic (e.g., example.com/?p=12345) to make them more readable and SEO-friendly.

  • Top tier content

    Create High-Quality, Valuable Content: Develop content that addresses user intent comprehensively. Focus on providing detailed, accurate, and actionable information, ensuring it answers the user’s query fully.


    Ideal Content Length: Longer content tends to rank better. Aim for a minimum of 800-1,500 words per page, depending on the competition and topic depth. However, ensure quality is prioritized over length.


    Content Freshness: Regularly update the content with the latest information, stats, and trends to maintain its relevance and ranking.


    Align Content with Search Intent: Ensure that the content addresses user intent, whether informational, navigational, transactional, or commercial. This improves relevance and boosts rankings.


    Include Clear Calls to Action (CTAs): Add effective CTAs throughout the content to guide users toward desired actions, improving engagement and conversion rates.


    Improve Readability: Break up content with bullet points, short paragraphs, and visuals to make it easier to read. High readability leads to better user engagement, reducing bounce rates.


    Engage with Multimedia: Include multimedia elements like images, videos, infographics, and interactive content to keep users engaged longer and lower bounce rates.


    Focus on Dwell Time: Create compelling content that keeps users on the page longer. Higher dwell time signals to search engines that the content is valuable, positively impacting rankings.


    Provide Direct Answers: Structure content to directly answer user queries in a concise and clear manner, increasing the chances of appearing in featured snippets (position zero).

  • Internal & external linking

    Add Contextual Internal Links: Strategically place internal links to other relevant pages on your website, using keyword-rich anchor text. This improves site structure, distributes link equity, and helps search engines crawl the site effectively.


    Link to High-Value Pages: Prioritize linking to high-converting or cornerstone content to boost their visibility and rankings.


    Link to Authoritative Sources: Include links to credible, authoritative sources when citing statistics, research, or referencing other industry-related content. This adds value to users and signals to search engines that your content is well-researched.


    Use DoFollow for Trusted Sources: For trustworthy external sites, use dofollow links to pass link juice, while using nofollow links for less authoritative or unrelated content.

  • Image optimization

    Compress Images for Fast Load Times: Use tools like TinyPNG or ShortPixel to compress image files without losing quality, ensuring fast page load times.


    Use Descriptive Alt Text: Add keyword-rich, descriptive alt attributes to all images, making them accessible to users with visual impairments and improving image SEO.


    Choose Correct File Names: Use relevant keywords in image file names for better image ranking.


    Add Captions When Appropriate: Use captions to provide context and improve engagement. Search engines use captions to understand image content.

  • Schema markup

    Implement Schema Markup: Use structured data (e.g., FAQ, product, review, local business) to help search engines understand the context of your page and increase the chances of earning rich snippets.


    Test with Google’s Rich Results Tool: After adding structured data, test it with Google’s Rich Results Tool to ensure it’s implemented correctly and can generate rich snippets.

Link building

  • Backlink strategy

    We start by conducting in-depth competitor analysis using tools like SEMrush to identify link-building opportunities. By analyzing the backlink profiles of top competitors, we uncover strategies that work in your niche, including which sites are linking to them and which content is attracting the most links. Using this data, we create a customized link-building strategy, targeting high-authority domains relevant to your industry.

  • Linkable assets

    We create “linkable assets” high-quality, valuable content pieces such as infographics, research reports, guides, and blog posts that naturally attract backlinks. These assets are designed to be highly shareable and informative, giving other websites a reason to link back to your content. Our focus is on creating evergreen content that remains relevant over time, ensuring long-term link acquisition.

  • Niche directories

    We submit your website to relevant local directories and industry-specific platforms to build citations and generate backlinks. Unlike generic directories, niche-specific listings carry more weight for SEO and often provide targeted traffic. We also ensure that your business is listed in trusted, high-authority directories to enhance credibility.

  • Broken link replacements

    Broken link building involves finding broken links on relevant websites and offering your content as a replacement. We use tools to identify websites that have broken outbound links, reach out to the site owner, and suggest linking to your content instead. This method is mutually beneficial, as it helps the website owner fix a broken link while providing you with a new, authoritative backlink.

  • Earned media

    We leverage HARO (Help a Reporter Out) to gain backlinks from reputable news sites and publications. HARO connects journalists with industry experts. By responding to journalist queries related to your industry, we get your brand mentioned in articles from top-tier media outlets, resulting in highly authoritative backlinks.

  • Reporting

    Link building is an ongoing process, and we regularly monitor your backlink profile using tools like Google Search Console and SEMrush. We track your backlink growth, analyze the quality of acquired links, and ensure that your link-building efforts align with your overall SEO goals. Additionally, we disavow toxic or low-quality backlinks to protect your site from potential penalties.

Conversion optimization

  • User behavior analysis

    Analyzing Visitor Data: In conversion optimization, we begin by analyzing user behavior through tools like Google Analytics and Hotjar. This helps us track session duration, bounce rates, click heatmaps, and user flow to understand how visitors interact with the site. By identifying friction points or areas where users drop off, we can make data-driven adjustments to improve the overall experience.


    Strategically Placed CTAs: We design clear, action-oriented CTAs that are easy to locate and naturally guide users toward desired actions, such as signing up, purchasing, or requesting more information.


    A/B Testing (Split Testing): We also conduct A/B testing to compare different elements like CTAs, form lengths, and headlines. By experimenting with these variations, we determine which combinations lead to higher conversions, ensuring the website continuously improves in driving user actions.

  • Top tier content

    Content that Drives Action: We ensure that every piece of content is crafted to engage the audience while driving them toward a specific action. Whether it’s a blog post, service page, or landing page, the content addresses user pain points and provides a clear solution.

  • Landing pages

    Focused Landing Page Design: Landing pages are designed to focus on a single call to action, with all elements, including headlines, imagery, and text, driving toward that goal. A clean, uncluttered design helps reduce distractions and keeps users focused.


    Above-the-Fold Optimization: We ensure the most important information and CTA are visible above the fold, increasing the likelihood of immediate engagement. Visitors should know exactly what the page offers and what they should do within seconds of landing.

  • Social proof

    Social Proof & Testimonials: We leverage customer testimonials, reviews, and case studies to build trust. Trust badges, like SSL certificates and money-back guarantees, further enhance credibility, assuring users that the website is secure and trustworthy.


    Secure Payment Methods: We ensure that any payment or sign-up processes are secure, displaying security badges and encryption methods prominently to boost user confidence.

  • Intuitive user flow

    Smooth, Logical Navigation: We design user flows that are intuitive and easy to follow, ensuring visitors can quickly find what they’re looking for. Pages are structured to reduce the number of clicks required to convert, keeping the journey from landing page to CTA as simple as possible.


    Internal Linking: We strategically use internal links to guide users to high-converting pages (e.g., services or contact pages) and keep them on the site longer, increasing the likelihood of conversion.

  • Audience segmentation

    Personalized Content: Using tools like dynamic content and personalization (based on user location, behavior, or past interaction), we create custom experiences for each visitor. This helps increase relevance and engagement, leading to higher conversion rates.

Google Business Profile

  • Google profile creation

    We claim and verify your GMB listing to ensure full control. We accurately reflect your business name, avoiding keyword stuffing, and choose the most relevant primary and additional categories. We ensure your address, phone number, and website URL are correct and consistent across all platforms. For multi-location businesses, we create separate listings for each location and use the service area feature where needed. Additionally, we use UTM tracking to monitor traffic from GMB to your website, ensuring precise analytics tracking.

  • NAP consistency

    Ensure that your Name, Address, and Phone number (NAP) are consistent across your website, social media, and online directories.

  • Keyword optimization

    Write a compelling, keyword-optimized business description. Focus on your key services and unique selling points.

  • Services & products

    List all services your business offers, using keywords for each service. Provide detailed descriptions to clarify what you offer. Include pricing if relevant.


    For product-based businesses, add product categories and individual products with descriptions, prices, and images.

  • Ongoing GMB posts

    Regularly update your GMB profile with new posts, photos, services, and hours to keep the profile fresh and relevant.


    Monitor any changes Google makes to your listing and revert or correct them if needed.


    Keep an eye on competitors’ GMB profiles, analyzing their reviews, categories, and posts to stay competitive.

  • Local citations

    We focus on building a strong network of local citations to boost your business’s visibility in local search results. Local citations involve getting your business listed in relevant online directories, such as Yelp, Yellow Pages, and industry-specific platforms. We ensure that your NAP (Name, Address, Phone number) is consistent across all listings, which is crucial for local SEO rankings. These consistent citations help Google confirm the legitimacy of your business, improving your chances of ranking in the local 3-pack.


    For backlinks, we create a strategy to earn high-quality links from authoritative, relevant websites. We target local media, business directories, and local blogs to build credibility in your geographic area. Our approach includes guest posting, sponsorships, local partnerships, and outreach to local influencers to generate organic, relevant backlinks to your GMB profile and website. This backlink network strengthens your domain authority and improves your local SEO ranking, driving more local traffic to your business.

Questions?

  • Q. How much does SEO cost?

    It truly does depend! We have packages as low as $1200 a month for local clients all the way up to $25,000 a month for corporate or large e-comm clients. We are totally transparent so let's just chat and see what your business needs!

  • How soon will I see results?

    Many of our clients start to see significant results in the first 30 to 60 days, but a lot depends on the condition of your site's health, brand authority in the SERPs and other factors. Sometimes if a low quality SEO company used spam tactics on your site prior to working with us, it takes some time to clean up the mess left behind. 

  • Q. Are there any hidden charges here?

    Never! All of our charges are fully transparent. 

  • Q. Am I locked into a long term contract?

    Never! All of our local clients are on month-to-month contracts and larger SEO clients start with a 90 day contract and then turn into month-to-month after that.
