SEO also focuses on creating keyword relevant title tags and meta descriptions, which will help readers and prospective customer find your page . Having optimized tags and descriptions helps to increase the “click-through rate”, which also promotes increases in qualified web traffic.
2. Better ROI (Return on Investment) Than Normal Ads
Whether you are an e-commerce or non-e-commerce site, SEO provides trackable and quantifiable results. Hence a return on investment (ROI) is almost inevitable. These agencies are able to track nearly every aspect of their strategy. Increases in rankings, traffic, and conversions are just some of the parameters. Comprehensive analytics also provide the ability to see demographic information and other engagement metrics for individuals who have interacted with your website. With E-commerce sites, SEO agencies can see which paths users take to complete a sale. They can even detect which keyword they used to search for you prior to purchasing. For non-E-commerce sites, you can measure values of your lead conversions, like a ‘contact us’ form fill-out, and calculate the value of your SEO strategy that way.
3. Higher Brand Credibility, People Trust Google.
Top position rankings in search engines like Google for example, usually result in significant impressions. Having your website in these top positions on the search result pages also translates to more exposure for your website. Being on the first page for your targeted keyword search, will definitely help users to associate your brand with those keywords. This also adds credibility since companies on the first page are generally perceived to be more trustworthy. The more your pages and content rank in high positions in the search engines, such as Google, the more chances you have for users to see your content and associate with your brand.
4. The Results are Low Cost (In Comparison to Adwords and PPC)
SEO is one of the most cost-effective marketing strategies you business can utilize. This is because it targets users who are actively looking for your products and services online. SEO’s inbound nature helps businesses save money as opposed to outbound strategies like cold-calling. While cold-calling can still be an effective strategy, the leads generated cost 61% more than leads generated by an inbound strategy like SEO. And since SEO also targets users who are actively searching for products and services like yours, the traffic resulting from SEO is more qualified than many other marketing strategies, resulting in cost-savings for companies.
