Affordable Search Engine Marketing
Is there such a thing as Affordable Search Engine Marketing?
Of course, there is?
3 Basic Considerations for Affordable Search Engine Marketing
1) Do You Have More Time than Money?
If you can learn what to do yourself and you allow yourself the time that is required to do it, it can cost you almost nothing more than your time.
So, if you've got time on your hands and you are willing to learn what you should do and then take the necessary action steps to do it, do all that you can yourself.
2) Do You Have More Money than Time?
If so, then let your marketing budget dictate how much you should spend.
3) Can you Find Someone You Trust to Hire?
WARNING! I implore you NOT to hire a "professional SEM (Search Engine Marketing) or SEO (Search Engine Optimization) company!
Why? They are nearly 100% scams. If you have already hired such a firm, you have already experienced personal pain over it.
Interesting Note: I think in 2021, I changed my credit card processing bank for my company. I have sold SEO services for years. They told me that they would provide the account if I advertised and sold SEO services!
Why? Because even the banks lose money on these SCAM companies! They have chargebacks that are HIGH and COSTLY.
The world of SEO has changed so dramatically over the last decade that we have not sold "traditional SEO services" ourselves for over 10 years now, because they simply do not work. We don't SCAM people.
We teach people HOW to do the basic, ON-SITE SEO themselves or we do it as a part of website development. We don't charge extra for it!
We also setup LOCAL SEARCH for our clients, which is TOTALLY DIFFERENT from "conventional" SEO.
We also implement Social Marketing (Facebook, Instagram, Youtube) which are "traffic drivers" as well, but they are not "traditional" SEO, either!
Finding someone trustworthy:
- Try to locate someone that is truly LOCAL to your area. Someone you can sit down with and look at in their God-given eyeballs.
- Before you meet with them, ask them for some LOCAL customers that they have purchased their services that you can talk with if possible. (This should be possible). Otherwise, AT LEAST look at their reviews from places like google.
- Interview them, ask them what they can do for you and how much they will charge.
- Ask them what they should expect for results from the services that they provide to you.
- Ask them if they will be employing paid services on your behalf. Will they be using Google PPC (Pay Per Click), for example. Note: if they are, you don't need SEO services to get ADS to show up on Google partner's websites!
- Require them to provide these things to you in writing, with a money-back guarantee if they cannot fulfill the results that they promise you.
