What SEO for Small Businesses Looks Like with Workshop Digital

To ensure your website and local business profiles are set up the right way, we start our process by getting to know you, your business, and your customers. Our Proven Process of research, strategy, and testing leads to a deep understanding of your business challenges, your customers' needs, and your overall goals.

SMB-Focused SEO Strategy

Once we establish a firm understanding of your business needs, we create a custom small business SEO strategy designed to get your website and business profile in front of the people who need you most, with the ultimate goal of growing your business.

Success Metrics That Matter To You

We’ll measure success through Google Analytics(GA4), Google Search Console, and Google Business Profile; ensuring your accounts are set up correctly, whether you already have them or not.

Optimize The Technical Aspects

An extensive audit of your small business website will give us insight into its technical and content makeup, where we’ll be looking for opportunities to improve site structure and page content. We have the technology to help make it better, faster, and stronger.

Keep An Eye On The Competition

We always keep an eye on your biggest competitors in the search results. We’ll work on decoding their SEO strategies, learning their patterns, and sharing custom insights that could not only help with the work that WE are doing but could help you make more informed decisions about your business.

Identify What Your Customers Want

Through our keyword research process, we ensure your website aligns with the terms that your customers are typing into the search bar to find services like yours. And then we make sure your site is visible and responsive to Google’s web-crawling robots. All of this means: we get your business to show to real people who need you when it matters most.

On-Site Content Strategy & Optimization

Of course, as a small business, you know just being there isn’t enough - you’re going to need good content on your website to get people to take action. We’ve got you covered there. We’ll help craft a content strategy for your small business that advises what you should write about on your blog or what specific words & phrases you should add to your website’s pages to get you to rank higher. Need help doing the writing? That is no problem; we can help with that too.

Executive-Level Reporting & Insights

Want to stay up to date on our progress? We’ll have regular conversations to update you on our progress and to hear from you about what’s happening in your business. Plus, we’ll arm you with a live reporting dashboard that you can access any time to see how many clicks, sales, or whatever-number-you-care-about-most that our organic efforts drove for your small business last month, last week, or yesterday.

How We Stand Out

The list above highlights the foundation of our small business SEO services, but there’s more that goes into our approach. Here are just a few of the major highlights:

Local Focus for SMBs

Testing, Testing, and More Testing

“Set it and forget it” is a mindset that should only apply to slow cooking. Whether it’s identifying and optimizing for additional keywords that will put you in front of your customers, finding ways to enhance user experience, or testing a different message on your pages, we’ll always look for ways to make things a little better.

Small Business SEO and PPC Are Better Together

“A rising tide lifts all boats” is as true in digital marketing as it is in sailing. When SEO and paid search work together for SMBs, we often see better results across both channels. Think you might also be interested in PPC? Learn more about our paid media services for SMBs.
