If your a local or national business owner wanting to get more customers you might have thought about online exposure as a good way to move forward.
Advertising is a common starting place. Facebook ad's are easy to configure and get things started. Google's Ad Words is a more sophisticated for those with little or no online experience.
A SEO company in the U.K is a good place to get some help and support with Adwords campaigns. A decent company will show you how they've configured your ad's so you don't have to employ them on a consistent basis - At least this is the best way to go so your not forking out too much cash for your websites online exposure.
The Long Game of Online Marketing If you're looking for a long term strategy to get your website noticed in Google and the other search engines then search engine optimisation (SEO) is ideal.
But be warned as SEO is a complicated affair and it's not something you can readily learn about unless you have untold time on your hands to waste - not ideal for your average small business owners who already have their hands full.
So naturally you'll be looking for an SEO company to do it for you. I've checked out some of the major cities in the U.K for SEO density. I looked at London, Manchester and Cardiff for well established companies that offer services.
It's not surprising that London had the biggest population of SEO companies for a city/area. In fact they hold over 33% of the entire U.K industry firms. I also found SEO London companies to be more expensive that they northern and western counterparts.
Manchester was next in line. They hold 9% and Cardiff a mere 1.2%. These cities price ranges were dramatically lower than that of London. However search engine optimisation in the U.K and rest of the world is about results.
As a small business owner myself I would pay more for a service that lived up to its promises and delivered my hair salon new leads and clients.
As my research continues I will check out city testimonials, divide them by the costs each company charge and finish with a cost versus results calculation that can help you decide which area of the U.K offers the best service and value.
I've also been researching about SEO on my Blogger site if you're interested in taking a look.
