FAQs

SEO stands for Search Engine Optimisation.

It is the practice of increasing organic traffic to a website and building a business’s brand awareness by making website pages, blog posts and other website content visible in the search engine results pages (SERPs).

There are many aspects to SEO, including Technical SEO, on-page SEO, keyword research and off-page SEO.

SEO is a marathon, not a sprint. It’s about building the right foundations for a highly visible, long lasting website, and subsequently, business.

Technical SEO is the process of indexing in the search engine results pages by optimising a website’s performance.

Think of it like building a house: Without the right foundations, it will crumble.

Search engines judge your site based on technical checks, including status codes, website speed, mobile friendliness and the ability to crawl/render everything.

Without taking care of your technical SEO, your website won’t index properly and consequently, it won’t be seen by your target customer.

SEO (when performed correctly) directly correlates with good user experience, more website visibility and increased organic traffic over time.

Good SEO practices allow website visitors to find, access and absorb higher quality content much easier.

It also helps a business build a brand and website that converts better, and that lasts for years to come.

Many SEO agencies will tell you that it takes four to six months to start seeing results.

But it’s important to note that there is no destination when it comes to SEO. It’s an iterative practice that requires attentive care and patience over time.

It requires a business to invest in a long-term strategy, not short-term quick wins.
