SEO Made Simple – The Key to Being Found Online
It’s almost impossible to rank on Google for anything apart from your business name without some form of SEO strategy. Around 83% of all search engine traffic is driven by good SEO, with the remaining 17% from paid adverts. Research has found that ranking on search engines implies to the buyer that you’re a business to be trusted, but how does it all work?
This workshop will examine both onsite and offsite SEO, we will examine what makes a good linking strategy and the important role Social Media plays in SEO. We will also show you some free and simple tools that can be used to find out what your customers are already searching for.
By the end of this workshop you will know:
- What is Search Engine Optimisation
- How to apply SEO techniques to your website
- Understand a range of tools to support your SEO implementation
