Why SEO Matters 

If you’ve ever wondered why your website isn’t bringing in as many visitors as you’d like, the answer might be simple: SEO.

Search Engine Optimization (SEO) is how your site shows up when people search for businesses like yours. Think about it, when was the last time you clicked on page 2 of Google? Exactly.

Most small business owners know SEO is important, but here’s the catch:

It’s not just about using a few keywords.

It’s not just about writing a blog.

And it’s definitely not just about having a “nice looking” website.

SEO has layers, things like page titles, headings, backlinks, and content structure. The tricky part, these work together, and missing even one piece can hold your site back.

The good news is you don’t need to become an SEO expert overnight. You just need to know the basics, and then decide how much of it you want to handle on your own.
