Services

While there are a number of different ways that businesses can tap into the marketing power of the internet – and we can help you with all of them – we believe that the foundation of any successful internet marketing strategy for a brick and mortar business is to first and foremost be able to be easily found by your potential clients and customers when they are actively looking for the products and services that you offer.

Most people today no longer use the Yellow Pages to find local businesses but instead turn to the internet.

However, having a website and ‘being online’ is not enough for a business. Your potential clients and customers have to be able to easily find you.

From a practical perspective, this means being ranked on the first page of Google and the other major search engines for your ‘keywords’ (the words and phrases that potential clients and customers might use to search for a business that sells the kind of products and services that you do).

This is the primary service that we offer. The formal name for it is “search engine optimization” or SEO for short.

In other words, SEO is the art of getting a particular web page to rank as highly as possible for a specific, relevant search term.

Practically speaking, this does NOT mean merely being on the first page of results but being one of the top three ranked webpages. The top three listings attract more clicks than the other seven combined.

However, the #1 listing attracts more clicks than the second and third combined!

SEO is not that far removed from a winner-take-all situation.

Do you see how valuable being ranked #1 is?

The bottom line is that you’re going to need a search engine optimization EXPERT to get your website to the top of the search engine rankings – and keep it there – for all but the smallest markets.

The good news is that, as our name suggests, we are SEO experts.

The stated goal of most our competitors is to get your website ranked on the “first page of Google”. The reason they say that is because quite frankly it’s a lot easier to get a website ranked on the first page of results than to have it ranked #1. The reason for this is that the higher up the rankings you go, the tougher the competition becomes – sometimes exponentially so – even from one spot to the  next.

From our perspective, an SEO company that aspires to have your website ranked on the first page of results is like a coach or manager whose goal is to make the playoffs – as opposed to winning the Super Bowl or the World Series.

That may be good enough for them but it’s not good enough for us – and quite frankly, it shouldn’t be good enough for you either.

In contrast to our competitors, our stated GOAL is to have your business ranked #1 for all of your most important keywords.

Are we always successful? Of course not.

The greatest athletes in any sport routinely fail. However, they are considered great athletes because they reach the pinnacle of success more than any of their competitors.

Rest assured that if you hire us, our goal will be nothing short of reaching the pinnacle of success – which in our business means having your website ranked #1.

This is why once you choose to work with us, we will only work with you, and exclusively for you, in your geographical market. It wouldn’t be ethical for us to represent two competitors in the same geographical market because after all – there is only one spot at the top – and getting the websites of our clients there is how we choose to measure success.

Expert Local SEO Services understands that talk is cheap and that you’re looking for specific, measurable results – which is why we’re willing to guarantee the results that we will produce for you – in a way that our competitors won’t.

This is extremely important – we are willing to GUARANTEE OUR RESULTS IN A WAY THAT NONE OF OUR COMPETITORS ARE WILLING TO MATCH!

Our competitors say “be wary of any seo firm that ‘guarantees’ their results. No one can ‘guarantee’ how Google will rank a website”.

On the surface, their argument sounds logical – after all, no SEO firm has a ’special’ relationship with Google and we certainly don’t claim to.

However, SEO companies are like athletes – successful some of the time and not so other times. Some athletes are more successful – much more successful – than others. It’s the nature of competition.

The truth of the matter is that we are much more confident in our abilities than our competitors are – which is why we’re willing to offer you a completely-unique-one-of-a-kind-iron-clad-performance-guarantee that to be frank – would make our competitors have an accident in their pants if they knew what it was. Fill out our form and set up a consultation before one of your competitors hires us.

The question you should be asking yourself is not why we’re willing to guarantee our performance but why our competitors aren’t. Fill out our form and set up a free, informative consultation.
