...your site will have more chance of appearing on page 1 of search results than the vast majority of your competitors.
I look forward to inquiries regarding website design and development in Nottingham, the UK and Europe
I have more than 20 years experience building websites for a variety of businesses throughout Nottingham and beyond. I put in place simple but effective strategies that help search engines index these websites with ease.
One of the biggest problems faced by tradespeople is that, by the nature of the work, it's not easy to keep a website updated and to stay on top of social media. I offer services that include writing up regular blog posts or case studies, that show the public (and search engines) that you are an active and popular business. All I ask is that images of latest projects and a brief description are sent via something like WhatsApp.
I'll even write the text for your website if you tell me a little about the services you wish to be found for most. Get in touch...
The length of time yourwebsite will take to move up through search engine results depends on the type of business and your locality. There are some important supporting factors that will help move your website to a higher position though...
Having a Google Business Profile for your company is essential but it's not always easy to get it right. If your business has premises that customers can visit then you have the advantage of being visible in Google Map searches. Not every business is eligible for a Google Business Profile and there are strict rules in place fir verifying certain types of business. If your business serves customers at their premises or house then you can still have a google business profile but it must be set up as a service business with stated service areas.
Using social media effectively is pretty straightforward andcan bring invaluable links to your website while also letting people know who you are. Joining Facebook groups and answering questions / sharing your business details can be extremely effective.
There are many free business directories that will allow you to list your business and also link to your website. The value of these links isn't necessarily huge but they are all indicators to Google, that your business is real and alive. Many trade bodies will also have directories of members and which can be very useful in terms of gaining back links to your website.
When I finish building a website, I always set up dedicated accounts for Google Analytics and Google Search Console - the latter is particularly useful for gaining insights into site performance in searches and and ways positioning can be improved.
All the points above will help get your website positioned well but the most important factor is the initial build of your website. If you are either setting up in business or you have an existing website that isn't performing and is perhaps inneed of a rebuild, drop me a line...
