Off-page SEO efforts are what you do outside of your website to improve its search engine rankings. Search engine optimization efforts directly on your website are essential, but it is not the only way to manage and improve SEO.
When it comes to off-page SEO efforts, it is essential to build up this part of your business to keep growing and expanding the reach of your digital footprint. At East End Yovth, we help you gain more clients while utilizing off-page SEO efforts, online reputation management, the Google My Business (GMB) page, and managing your backlinks.
Google My Business (GMB)
Clients find you naturally when SEO efforts are correctly implemented. More traffic to your site means more exposure for the product or service you’re trying to sell, and we take pride in our skilled team and the work we can do to increase both the quality and quantity of traffic on your site.
One of the resources is Google My Business. It is an easier way for anyone to see if a business is open and when its the busiest. As a consumer, it makes life easier when you can see when your favorite restaurant is not busy or find the street address, phone number, or website. You want your GMB to be up-to-date with correct information because it’s everything a client wants to know in a simplified and easy to read page.
It’s also easier to use. When everything is linked through GMB. When using GMB to its fullest, updates that you make to your site will automatically update everywhere else. Using GMB effectively also gives you information about your consumers. You can see what product or service brought them to your website, how they found you, and what trends you should be using to your advantage for marketing purposes.
Online Reputation
Your reputation is perhaps the most valuable resource you have. Now with everything online, many factors contribute to what potential clients see about you. Protecting that reputation in the online world is crucial to growing your business.
Studies show that the vast majority of consumers read reviews before buying products or services online. We all know the bias that happy customers go on their way without ever thinking to leave a review, while customers upset with a service or product are far more likely to take the time to leave a review.
Ongoing monitoring of your online reputation is essential. Comprehensive monitoring of online review sites and setting Google alerts so that you know when something new is posted about your business are two of the first and easiest steps to monitor your reputation. You will also want to include social media monitoring and partner verification to ensure that potential clients and customers are getting the best first impression possible.
At East End Yovth, we will use low-tech methods and sophisticated analytics to review and understand the reputation of your business. Once we have established your reputation, we will help you set in motion ways to repair (if needed) and protect your reputation moving forward.
