Incorporating SEO and Social Media Will Grow Your Business Online

Portsmouth NH, January 25, 2016 — Search engine optimization (SEO) is the process of increasing the amount of organic website traffic by ensuring that a given website appears near or at the top of search engine results. It is understood that social media presence is a contributing factor in optimizing a business’s website traffic, but it isn’t enough to simply set up a social media account and wait for customers to find you. Research shows that merely having a business Twitter account or advertising on Facebook may not be enough to affect your ranking in the eyes of Google or other search engines.

The key to getting the most of your social media endeavors is to intertwine them with your overall SEO and web design and development strategy. Similar to the optimized content on your website, the content you develop for your social media outlets should contain search-terms or keywords that people are using to locate your services online.

Along with using key words, providing opportunities for social sharing via social media will help to boost your search engine rankings. Social media accounts should contain external inbound links to your business’s website, along with high quality shareable content that encourages your social network to share, like, or favorite your posts. These opportunities for social sharing will both increase the number of visits being directed to your website, and show Google that Internet users are interested in the content your business is generating.

Social media also affords you the ability to achieve your best local SEO presence. Engaging with other local businesses on social media will send local-specific authority signals to major search engines. It’s imperative to post or tweet from local trade shows and events, and share other local businesses’ high quality content. These practices will grow your business online.
