SEO for Small Businesses: How to Compete with Big Brands Online

 

Hello and Welcome Back to another one of my blogs.😛

 

This week we are looking at SEO for Small Businesses and how this can help them compete with big brands online.


Online marketing techniques can be very expensive💸 for small businesses. A technique which will allow a small business to stay competitive and have low costs is Search Engine Optimisation (SEO).

 

So what is SEO, I hear you ask👂. SEO is a technique that improves a business’s visibility online. The main aim is for your website 🕸to appear as close as possible to the top of a search page. If a small business can manage their SEO effectively, they improve their chances of being seen and more people accessing their website.

SEO can have many benefits ➕for a small business. These include:

·       Increased web traffic

·       Better online visibility

·       Improved user experience

·       Competitive advantage

·       Targeted marketing

 

A small business can improve 🠅their SEO ranking in many ways. A few ways they can do this are by making a website of high quality – make sure it is clear and easy to use, set up google analytics and google search console to help measure the traffic, set up a google business profile, do a basic keyword search to identify words and phrases that are relevant to their business, create relative and high-quality content and measure and track SEO data. By incorporating these strategies, a small business can optimise their SEO and be more competitive with the bigger businesses online.

 

It is worthwhile for a small business to invest in their SEO. It will allow their business to be competitive with the big brands, it is low costing💰, and it will reach the right target audience✅.

 

That was a quick summary of SEO for small businesses and how it can help them compete with the big brands online. If you want to know, more click here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SwTo2DuSXCI
