Beginner’s SEO - Can you find me now? Can you find me now?
There’s a really strange syndrome that comes over someone when they decide to commit themselves to buying or building a website. They think, “This is so great! There’s hundreds of millions of people on the web every hour, I’m going to get visitors and they will want to give me money!”. Or something similar… To me, this is sort of like the lottery ticket syndrome. When you buy a ticket and inadvertently start dreaming about what you’ll do with the money.
The problem is, the site goes live and the phone never rings. And this is most disheartening to a new Internet business. Especially when you consider that starting up a website is NOT cheap. Or if you take the true entrepreneurship road and build your own website, it’s NOT easy!
If you are one of these good people who have invested in your new website and put a lot of time into writing the content and dreaming up your business model, you should know that there are NO BAD WEBSITES, only broken ones. And websites can ALL be fixed or replaced. Usually for a good deal less than they originally cost.
But the thing you really need is SEO.
Let’s say that you have a website that looks OK, so a makeover isn’t totally necessary, but you have no traffic. A small infusion of funds can alert the search engines to your presence. But this small infusion of funds has to be done by a real pro, or else it might just fall short of its goal to drive traffic. It might then lead to more and more small infusions of funds that also fall short of their goals to drive customers to your site.
Good news… bad news.
The bad news is that you really should hire a pro if you are considering SEO. There’s just too many variables and if they aren’t all done right you might not see any success. A little money spent on the right company will go a LONG way.
The good news is that someone who knows what they are doing, can do this relatively quick and inexpensively and the ROI on something like that is invaluable.
Note: every industry is different and not everyone can get mountains of traffic with a small SEO program, but everyone who does SEO the right way WILL get more traffic. Period.
