Petaluma SEO Services

Yes, SEO is an awesome way to get business. It takes a lot of effort to rank your company properly in local results. Local search results depend on prominence, which is a measure of how well known and trusted your business is in Petaluma and the surrounding area.

Many factors add to local prominence in the eyes of a search engine: listings, backlinks, and reviews. While search engines use multiple data points to rank your website, none are more important than these 3:

1. Citations/Listings – Mentions of your company that have your business name, address, and phone number. These start with Google My Business, Yelp, Local.com, and 45 other listings. The core citations needed to rank well locally are made up of those 48 listing sites, but there are about 125 more that you should have created and managed to secure the highest ranks possible.

2. Positive Reviews – Reviews prove to users that your service or product is the best. Experts estimate 82% of people searching for local companies rely on customer reviews to make decisions. Search engines know this, and because the search engines are focused on good user experience, they use the number of positive reviews to develop better search results. A great Petaluma SEO firm will help you get and manage positive reviews for your business profiles online.

3. Backlinks – Links have been the backbone of successful SEO campaigns for 20 years, and nothing has changed here. You still need quality backlinks that are relevant to your website so it can rank high in the search results. Local companies need good links from important groups like the Petaluma Chamber of Commerce or local networking groups like BNI.

At our company, we create and manage your citations for you. We also help you gather customer reviews and make sure they are placed on the best business listings that will help drive in new business. Along with everything else we do as SEO specialists, we also work to build the most relevant and highest quality backlinks we can for your company every month.

We have been building websites since the early 90s and optimizing them for search engines before SEO was a term people used. Our expertise will get your business results. We spend our mornings reading up on daily trends in the industry including changes to the search engines themselves and new software that might help us work faster and smarter. Our commitment makes sure you are getting the best ranks possible.

We’ve helped every business type, from non-profits to large international companies all the way back to little mom and pop stores on Main St. We love our jobs, and can’t imagine doing anything else. You will see this after hiring us.

Less than half of the local company profiles on Google, the ones that can show up in the search results on the map, are maintained and claimed by their owners. The other 56% were created automatically and not optimized. As you can see, most of the competition haven’t claimed their profiles. In nearly every industry, in almost every city, SEO will get you to the front page with an affordable budget.

For your competitors that have done the basics and claimed their business listing, and done some optimization of their website, you can still move ahead of them quickly by hiring SEO specialists like us. Google and other search engines change their ranking factors every times a year, your competitors will lose rankings while you’re kept up to date with the latest ranking factors and trends. That leads to more customers for you.

With affordable SEO pricing we know there isn’t a better deal on search engine optimization. With many years of experience, and dedication to the field, we will get your website optimized and your company more paying customers.
