Lafayette SEO Services

Yes, SEO is a great way to get business. It takes a lot of effort and time to rank your business properly for local results. Local results depend on prominence, which is a measurement of how well known and trusted your business is in Lafayette and the general area.

Multiple factors contribute to local prominence in the eyes of a search engine: listings, backlinks, and customer reviews. While search engines use many other data points to rank your site, none are more important than these three things:

1. Citations – Mentions of your local business that contain your business name, address, and phone number. These start with Google My Business, Yelp, Local.com, and 48 total listings. The core listings needed to get good rankings locally are made up of those 48 listing sites, however there are a total of 125 that you should have created and managed to secure the best ranks possible.

2. Positive Reviews – Reviews convince users that your service or product is excellent. An estimated 82% of people searching for local businesses rely on reviews to help make their decisions. Google knows this, and because the search engines are focused on great user experience, they calculate the value of positive reviews to develop better search results. A great Lafayette SEO company can help you get more positive reviews for your business listings online.

3. Backlinks – Links have been the mainstay of successful SEO campaigns for 15 years, and nothing has changed here. You need quality links that are relevant to your website to rank high in search results. Local businesses need links from strong local groups like the Lafayette Chamber of Commerce or local networking groups like BNI.

We have helped every category of business, from non-profits to large international companies all the way back to little stores on Main St. We love this job, and can’t imagine doing anything else. You will see this when working with us.

Only 44% of the company profiles on Google My Business, the ones that can show up on the maps in search results, are maintained and claimed by their owners. The other 56% were created automatically and not optimized. As you can see, most of your competition haven’t claimed their profiles and aren’t doing SEO either. In almost every city, in nearly every industry, SEO will move you to the front page with an affordable budget.

If competitors have done the basics and claimed their business listing, and done a little on-page of their website, you can still move ahead of them affordably by hiring an experienced SEO company like ours. Search engines like Google change their ranking algorithms a few times a year, your competitors will lose rankings while your campaign is kept up to date with the latest ranking factors. That leads to more customers for your company.

With simple SEO pricing we’re positive there isn’t a better deal on Local SEO. With many years of experience, and work in the field, we will get your website optimized and your business more sales.
