Recently, search engines have moved more towards local search results, opening the doors even further to great opportunities for local businesses everywhere.

A slow website can negatively impact user experience and search engine rankings, making it crucial to address any performance issues. By using various plugins and implementing minor development fixes, we can significantly improve the load times of your website.

Each tag needs to be used properly to fully optimize your website. Some HTML tags have more prominence and weight on your site rankings than others. We make sure the on-site optimization is done correctly and has the appropriate keyword usage sprinkled throughout the content. All of this provides your users with a friendly experience and search engines the ability to index your site properly. When on-site SEO is done correctly and combined with powerful off-site SEO, the results are powerful.

In other cases, this may mean building a responsive site. Once the website is ready to be viewed on mobile, we optimize the site for local search, searches centered around a location or area.
