Top Spots SEO

Finally, Google has deemed us important enough to reach the first page for our required keywords! But has this made any difference on our business? Well, not a lot! Albeit we are at the bottom of the first page, but you would think that with claims that 250,000 UK searches (per month) have made using our desired keywords we would get some kind of inflated hits?

Maybe its down to the users of Google, how far do they actually search for the tradesman they want? Do they just click on first result that comes up? The Sponsored Link! If this is the trend then we certainly have something to feel deflated about.

However, I will give it a bit of time and blog again soon to let you know how we're doing.

Hi there - well done on getting to the top on your chosen keyword! Lots of hard work has been paid off. I think you'll find that the benefits are a gradual thing - keep checking your stats and over the next 3 months, you should see an improvement if you compare it to last year's traffic. Plumbing and heating does tend to lull over the summer months, but come autumn when boilers are failing at the first switch on, the search traffic will increase and being on the first page, you'll get an increase in traffic. May the force be with you! :D
