We have SEO plans starting at $300/month. The truth is, the more time we can spend marketing your website online, the higher your site will show in search results. Let's talk about your goals first and we can come up with a plan to get your business found online.

Are meta-tags and meta descriptions important?

The major search engines changes their algorithms frequently, and they place different importance on different factors accordingly. As a best practice, yes, meta data is important and should be utilized, although its importance has been decreasing for some time now.

How do I improve my search engine placements?

First off, having a website that is optimized correctly is the first step. Making sure that there are high quality links pointing back to it is the next step. Creating quality content and distributing it online is the best way to get these links. Social network marketing is a great way to get started!

Is SEO a one-time effort?

No, SEO is a continual effort that takes time to achieve. Search engines may only index your site every 4-6 weeks, and any improvements will depend on a ton of factors including your competition. Also, search engines change their algorithms frequently, so it is important that an Atlanta SEO company like SolutionBuilt is keeping up with these changes and being proactive on your behalf.

What are the most important factors to SEO?

There are many factors that are critical to long term success. A website that is optimized, lots of high quality links, and good content that is created for humans (not search engines) are paramount.

Are blogs important for Search Engine Optimization?

Yes! Blogs are an easy way to keep your website content updated with fresh, unique content. Search engines love blogs.

My website is flash, can it be optimized for search?

This is a real hot potato that divides SEO experts and Web designers. Search engines cannot index (or at least not easily) the contents inside a Flash file unless you feed them with the text inside a Flash movie. However, onsite optimization is only part of a good SEO strategy. Offsite optimization is critical too, and can be done just the same whether your site is Flash based or not.
