FAQs we commonly receive about SEO
What is search engine optimization?
SEO is a marketing strategy that uses keywords people use when using a search engine like Google and links the keywords to their site or business. Hence, they appear as close to the top of the first SERP as possible to gain exposure for their site or business, which leads to higher traffic and sales.
How are SEO and PPC different?
Pay-per-click advertising (PPC) is an advertising technique in which an advertiser puts an ad in an advertising venue (like Google AdWords or Facebook) and pays that venue each time a visitor clicks on the ad. Proper SEO helps make your website visible for potential clients when they are Googling terms related to your products or services. Though SEO is not necessarily a comprehensive marketing strategy, it is an important habit for small business owners who want to make the most of their websites.
We often equate PPC and social media advertising as a drug. You can get a significant influx of leads quickly but at what cost? Whereas SEO and content marketing are long-term play. While there are benefits to both, it warrants a discussion with us. We can then work together to determine which or both might be right for your business.
How long does it take to see SEO results?
Google alone has over 200 ranking signals. Therefore, it is impossible to predict how long it will take to rank on page 1 for any given keyword or phrase. Realistically, it will not happen in 30 days, but it could take a minimum of 2 to 6 months. Based on the statistics offered by Ahref's.com and outlined in this blog post, it could take an average of anywhere from 1 3/4 years to reach the number 10 position on page one and three years to reach the number 1 position on Google's page 1. However, we typically see significant improvement on long-tail keywords in the first 90 days and more competitive search terms around 180 days.
How are you different than other SEO agencies?
Search for any agency, and they will tell you that they deliver. However, Cube Creative has been in business since 2005; we have years of experience to back up our claims. Our dedication to helping you grow your business makes us stand out.
Do you outsource SEO work overseas?
The majority of our staff are located here in North Carolina. Some live in the Asheville and Hendersonville areas, others call part of Wilkes County, NC, home, and the rest are in South Carolina or Missouri. So to answer the question, it is a no. However, from our inception in 2005, we have never had an "office." We have always been based on a remote working model. In other words, we were all working remotely/at home before it was "cool" or pre-pandemic. Therefore, any of us can work from anywhere in the world. A few of them have traveled and worked remotely while in Costa Rica, Honduras, Guatemala, Ireland, and Australia.
Do you have an SEO guarantee?
Let me be the first to say that anyone or any agencies that can guarantee any rankings are nothing more than cowans, charlatans, or crooks looking to steal your hard-earned money! Google goes so far as to quickly warn businesses to stay far away from companies claiming to guarantee rankings. Why? Because Google's algorithm changes very frequently. Therefore, we might not be able to guarantee rankings. We can promise you that we will do everything we can to ensure you are reaching your goals. Not to mention, we have a proven track record of delivering results for our clients. We will also always follow best practices to get your website the highest rankings.
