The challenges of ranking a site in Melbourne
Melbourne is a thriving city with a big economy. If you want to be found in the local market, there’s a good chance there is lots of work you’ll need to do to achieve those results. With google only showing 10 results per page, if you’re not found on the first page, it’s unlikely you’ll ever get a click. In fact, the top 3 results account for 80% of the traffic.
My goal is to get your business in the top 3, and ideally 1st.
I’m a Melbourne SEO consultant with a great track record of getting businesses to appear at the top. Depending on the industry, the effort required to get to the top can vary.
If you’re in niche industries with lack of competition, the chances of ranking quickly and in a high position are more attainable. However, if you’re in a highly competitive industry, say “Electrician Melbourne” you could be up against hundreds of companies, maybe thousands, all fighting for the top spot.
I can help by implementing strategies to get you above the competition. I have a formula that works with a proven track record. A successful local SEO strategy takes time and effort, and cant be done overnight. I employ safe tactics that ensure your site gets to the top over time and stays there.
Frequently Asked Questions
Do you have lock in contracts and upfront terms?
How long does it take to rank for a search term?
There are many factors that affect the time taken to rank for a keyword. This is a complex questions revolving around many factors, but some of the obvious ones are:
How competitive are your keywords? If you’re in super competitive industries where leads are worth a lot of money and there are lots of competitors spending money to achieve results, this will mean you will have to outwork them to get above. If they’ve spent lots of money and time doing this, it will naturally take longer
Age of your domain name: If you’ve just registered your domain name recently, chances are you don’t have much historical value with google. Like any situation, trust is built over time. Google gives preference to domain names that have history with google. A domain name that is 10 years old will respond better to our work than a domain that has recently been created.
Relevance of your domain name: If your domain is naturally key word rich, this can also help. Though not essential, a good domain name can help drive quicker results. Take a website called www.sydneyplumber.com.au, its going to rank quicker for the keyword “sydney plumber” than a site such as obrienplumbinggroup.com.au.
Has toxic work been done on your site in the past: We often take on sites that have had multiple agencies and seo consultants do work on them in the past. Whilst some of these works have been positive, more often than not a lot of the works harm the site more than they do good. This can take time to identify and untangle, increasing the time taken to rank a site. If a site has been penalised its our job to find out why, fix it and encourage google to come back once it has been fixed.
Budget: We strive to deliver results no matter the spend for each client, however a larger budget means more time and resources can be allocated to working on your site and getting quicker results.
How much do you services cost?
We don’t have a set fee as such, we assess each client on a case by case basis. Depending on your industry competitiveness, current state of your website, previous seo works implemented, the amount of keywords you want to rank for, your overall online objectives all determine the cost. We base cost on how much time is required to achieve your goals.
Prices are very affordable based on the industry averages, and you’ll find we deliver better results than most for half the spend. You’re welcome to book a website audit and face to face consultation, all which are free and there is no obligation to go ahead.
How do we pick the best keywords for our business?
We assist with this, using a variety of in house tools and software which analyse your industry and competitors. We also discuss with each client what they wish to be found for. We cam often find words within your own business that you may have missed or not focused on that can deliver high return on investment.
How do we keep track of your work and results?
We provide a monthly detailed report, identifying wins, losses and what we are working on to reach your goals. Being small, you can always call or email us at any time to discuss any questions or ideas you might have.
