Many people think that your new website will just pop up on Google when you search for your business keywords. However, this is sadly not the case. Google uses many different formulas to determine what sites appear at the top of their search rankings such as quality of the site, mobile-friendly, XML site map, titles/tags, search options on your site and many other technical requirements.
Customer Spotlight
Seth Chastain of Central Valley Bulk Materials Inc., provides bulk bark and mulch distribution all throughout California. He works with nurseries, government highway beautification, housing developments, and much more. I finished his new website in March 2019 and we have been working on Search Engine Optimization (SEO) for the past year. This concept can be quite scary and confusing if you go it alone but it doesn’t have to be. I offer SEO Packages as standalone products, or as part of my monthly maintenance packages. He has been working with me for about a year now and I am very proud to show our improvement in SEO ranking. Central Valley Bulk Materials Inc., now ranks #1 in multiple keyword searches (bulk bark distribution and central valley bulk bark) and on the first page for most keywords we researched and worked towards. SEO is an on-going process and it changes day-to-day as Google’s algorithm determines what sites have the most useful information and provide the best results.
