Don’t Let The Competition Take Your Business
There is no “magic” when it comes to being found online. If someone tells you they can guarantee you will show up on the first page overnight, be careful. The only way to consistently rank high with search engines, particularly for local searches, is to be relevant. Google and Bing search algorithms have evolved to be extremely complex. Competing in this landscape to have your business found online can be a full-time undertaking.
The main key to getting found and developing a strong foundation online is to become known to the search engines as trusted, relevant, and informative. Search engines today know when web designers are trying to “game the system” by throwing key words and search terms on a page. That is no longer a successful method or technique; those days are long gone.
