SEO stands for “Search Engine Optimization”. In simple terms, it means the process of improving your site to increase its visibility when people are searching for things that you offer and not specifically you, related to your business in Google, Yahoo, Bing, and other search engines. Below is a list of 8 of my favorite SEO tools to help you show up better to your potential customers.
“When you change one thing, you have the ability to change EVERYTHING.”
We wanted to take the time to share the most efficient and beneficial SEO tools that we use to be successful in our business:
If you don’t already have Google Analytics set up on your website, you are missing out! It’s a hidden gem that gives you a glimpse behind the curtain with how, who and why you are getting potential customers to your website. You can see where people came from, how long they stayed on your site, what content brought them in, how many pages per visit, if they were new or a repeat visitor, and SO MUCH MORE! I know it can be a little scary the first time you use it, but I promise, it gets easier the more and more you spend time in there. And if set up correctly, it can really help you measure your website performance and make sure you are spending money in the right places.
Keywords are another important aspect of SEO. This website allows you to test keywords and ad group ideas to see how they would perform in campaigns. The Google Keyword Planner will also generate new keywords for you that might perform successfully as well (for both paid and organic). A little insider’s tip, if there’s a really great keyword or series of keywords you want to use for Paid Search but they are too expensive, consider writing a local content piece around those keywords to generate website traffic organically instead. It will take a little longer to rank, but will save you a LOT of money.
You read that right. I go straight to Google! Have you noticed that when you start typing a question or anything in Google, it’s already trying to “guess” what you want to look for. I find it really helpful to ask a question related to the topic I am writing on to see what other questions people are asking around that topic and what other sites are displaying. This is valuable information to learn about new content pieces and new sections you may want to include in your content piece (new H2 Tags etc.)
