A few of our clients have been asking us to put together a simplified version of what an SEO company actually does. Without boring you with the complex details of algorithms and technical software capabilities an on SEO company Manchester or SEO agency Manchester will do a lot of complex things both to your website (this is known as "on page" work) and link building activities (this is known as "off page work"). All the activities that occur are generally to help your website rank higher for your chosen keywords. So let's keep things simple and start off at the basics.

There are 2 ways you can attract traffic to your website:-
Firstly, Pay Per Click Advertising. This is known as paid search marketing. Basically you draft an advertisement within your Google Analytics Account using closely related keywords and hey presto, someone clicks onto your advertisement and visits your site. For this you will pay a fee which is basically dependent upon the keyword chosen, page landing score and what your competitors are willing to pay. If done correctly ...
... PPC can be quite effective, however, when you stop paying your campaigns dry up and there's no more visitors to your website.

Secondly, there's SEO (Search Engine Optimisation). This is known as organic search marketing and consists of optimising your website both "on page" and "off page" by link building. It's generally considered that organic traffic is better to have than PPC or targeted traffic.

This is where SEO companies play a key role. If you need to attract new customers and sell products from your website then you definitely need our SEO services Manchester.
