SEO for Small Businesses: How to Compete with Big Brands Online

 Hi everyone, 

Welcome back to this weeks blog! This week I am going to be talking about SEO for small businesses 😎

SEO is search engine optimization. Search engine optimization is the process of improving the quality and quantity of websites traffic to a website or web page from search engines.




So how might a small business use SEO to compete with brands?💁 I am going to tell you all now.

1. Focus on local-  Targeting a local market can help with the way a business is portrayed in search results. Whether the business operates on a national level, they can still work on local SEO to beat SEO competition in their area.

2. Google Analytics - If a small business sets up google analytics and google search console it will give the business an indication of the online traffic and will view engagement of the business. 🖳

3. Develop your niche and focus on it -  This is a crucial one for small businesses. This will drive all of their marketing. Focus on a small area or niche market that your business can do well and bigger competitors won't do as well. Taking on rivals by focusing on this niche will help gain traction which can be leveraged into other areas or niches.

SEO is a valuable tool in any small businesses digital marketing toolkit. It is a relatively inexpensive and accessible way to make your business easy to find online and website easy to use.💥



I hope you all found this very interesting and learned a lot of new information.😌
