Why Search Engine Optimization

Why Search Engine OptimizationIt used to be that the Internet only provided a place for people to shop for discounted products. Now, however, the vast majority of people (more than 60%) use the Internet to search for just about everything: including services in their local area. That means, instead of flipping thorough the phone book when they need a plumber, roofer, sign shop, or other local service provider, people are surfing the Web. This means that both today and in the future it is critical for local businesses to have a strong online presence.

Search Engine Optimization (SEO) is a broad term for all the processes and activities that are involved with the proper creation and appropriate maintenance of your business's online presence. Search engines have many, many rules that need to be followed, and those rules change as the search engines evolve and get better at delivering relevant content to their users. Knowing these rules and abiding by

them is critical to any business that wants to be found online. Prospect Genius can help your business become and stay competitive online, meaning your business can grow now and into the future.
