Hi Michael,

Websites can drive traffic pretty quickly with the right marketing with it.

SEO is very specialist and quite expensive generally. A monthly commitment normally for 3-6months. If they've promised you page 1 they're lying. No SEO expert can promise that. It's an educated guess.

Depending what the keywords are will depends how long it take to rank. SEO is a long term strategy though. Decent SEO work probably takes a month to carry out, link building etc and a further 4-8 weeks for google to find the links so you may not necessarily be moving anywhere quickly.

The keywords play a big factor. Some SEO 'gurus' (hate people who call themselves that), will show results by ranking you quickly for a search term with practically no traffic and no competition. Looks great on the face of it to the customer but in reality it's a complete waste of time. I hope they carried out some keyword research for you and provided the results so you could see the stats.

If you want to discuss how much you paid, what you paid for and the keywords you are using, I can run them through my software to see what they're like traffic wise for you if you'd like? Completely complimentary.

P.S I hope your site isn't on Wix/weebly etc or your wasting your time.

Hi banner penguin,

I actually emailed you yesterday asking about SEO with yourself. I'm currently making a website ( can't afford to pay someone at the min) but am doing it on Wordpress (paid for my own domain)
So hoping this helps.
Would love it if you could send an email across to explain your pricing.

Literally just fired you an e-mail but you can take a look at our site here - Affordable Web Design
Admittedly I'm in the process of re-writing the SEO page at the moment so I believe that's currently blank along with a couple of other pages. The social media page should be there though.

I think you can easily get to page one of google in your area

 

[Michael Reynolds]

Thanks for your comment Clare. That's what I'm hoping for

what is wrong with using wix?

what is wrong with using wix?

My website was made on wix and I come up as the top result for my area with most search terms, the furthest down we go is the third result. As long as you set all your seo terms for each page and image right your laughing. Wix run an seo check for you and tell you what needs improving

If you don't mind sharing me your website and keywords in private message I'd like to run some tests

Wix used to have a terrible rep for bad SEO, but to be fair, they have rectified a lot of the issues now: https://www.rankfirstlocal.com/blog/are-wix-websites-good-for-seo/

They're better but still aren't 'good' per say.

It really depends on what you want to achieve with your website. If you want to start off the right way and give yourself the groundwork to grow in the future and give you the best possible SEO position then it's best to use a proper open source platform or have something custom coded for you.

On-site SEO is only about 20% of the SEO battle anyway. Sure, you could rank for easy search terms with no traffic but then there isn't really any point in that is there. It's about finding the best keywords to provide the best ROI.

I'll always stand by the fact the right website and right marketing will make you more money than it ever costs you.
