SEO FAQ

SEO stands for Search Engine Optimization, which refers to a practice of optimizing websites to rank higher on the search results page (SERP) on search engines like Google and Bing. This practice can involve many different elements including optimizing on-page content, obtaining links from high-authority websites, making technical fixes to improve user experience, and much more. Despite its name, SEO is not only about search engines, it’s also an important practice for the humans visiting your site who want to see content that’s relevant to their searches.

Put simply: if you are a business that wants to be found online, you need SEO. 93% of consumers use search engines to find businesses and if you’re not showing up in those searches, your customers are likely going to find your competitors instead

SEO is constantly evolving and changing, so staying in the top of the SERP is also an ongoing process, not a one-and-done project. Despite its name, SEO is not only about search engines, it’s also an important practice for the humans visiting your site who want to see content that’s relevant to their searches.

Yes, there is. While SEO & PPC often have similar goals of bringing more traffic and driving more leads to websites, it’s important to understand that they are two very different marketing channels:

  • PPC (or Pay Per Click advertising) is a channel that aims to bring paid traffic to a site through clickable ads deployed on ad platforms like Google Ads, Microsoft Ads and Meta Ads.
  • SEO, on the other hand, is a channel that aims to bring (unpaid) organic traffic to a website by being the most visible and relevant listing in the search engine results.

Each bring their own unique benefits. Leveraging multiple channels can generate amazing results for businesses who integrate both.

SEO ensures your business is visible on one of the most popular digital marketing channels customers can be found on: search engines. Good SEO means that you will show up at the exact moment your customers are searching for your products/services and when they are looking to find solutions to their pain points. SEO is also an important practice in digital marketing because it’s focused on providing the best website user experience possible, which benefits not only customers from organic search but customers from other marketing channels as well.

When paired together, SEO and Google Ads can be powerful digital marketing tools. Since SEO takes longer to see results, Google Ads can be used to ensure your business is showing up in the top positions for keywords that you are not ranking very high for yet organically. Google ads can also be a great way to test customer behaviour for particular keywords and copy, which can then be leveraged for your SEO strategies.

Search Engine Optimization and Search Engine Marketing are both powerful digital marketing channels. When it comes to deciding which is best for your business, it really depends. Ideally, we recommend investing in both, because leveraging both channels can drive great results.

However, if your business does not have enough resources to invest in both, you’ll need to choose a channel that best aligns with your needs. For example, if you would like to start generating leads right away, SEM may be the best course of action as SEO can take some time before you start seeing results. However, if you’re looking for a more long-term, high-value strategy with results that won’t be limited by budget, SEO is the way to go.

SEO increases sales by:

  • Improving rankings on the search engine results page (SERP), which can drive more qualified organic traffic, leads, sales to your site
  • Its ability to refine targeting for queries that have the highest purchase-intent
  • Ensuring your business shows up in the SERP at every stage of the purchase funnel
  • Creating the best on-page user experience possible, which makes users more likely to convert

The main goal of SEO is to drive website traffic and then turn that traffic into leads. How? SEO is focused on improving rankings on the search engine results page (SERP) for queries that are relevant to your business. The higher your rankings, the more likely a user will click on your listing. A recent study found that the first result has an average CTR of 43% in the SERP, while the 10th position (which is still on the first page), was found to have an average CTR of just 3%. To obtain better rankings and therefore increase website traffic, you’ll need a robust SEO strategy that utilizes a multitude of tactics including keyword research and mapping, on-page content optimization, backlinks, technical SEO, and much more.
