Google Optimisation Hassocks
As the leading providers of Google optimisation Hassocks, we believe it is our job to ensure that our customers make the most from their websites.
Around 1 in 3 searches on Google are focused on a place or location and this number is even greater when considering searches from mobile devices – nearly a third of all searches carried out. In order for small businesses to reach their target audiences, they must ensure that they are ranking high in these local searches.
Do you think that your website is performing as well as it could? Whilst SEO can certainly help any company looking to help make the most from their website, it’s not just limited to big businesses.

Small businesses may have even more to gain by the 4 benefits outlined below:
- Increased conversion rates (customers spending more money!!)
- Creating increased trust with your clients
- Advertising the keeps on giving (unlike some forms of advertising such as leaflet and newspaper advertising, SEO is designed to keep on giving)
- Increased feedback (the ability to leave reviews can be key in opening lines of communication with your customers)
Reaching The Promised Land
Every business owner should have the goal of reaching page one on Google for terms relating to their products and services. The importance of being easily found on the internet couldn’t be any higher and whilst it can be tough to get there, once you are there SEO can become the investment that just keeps on giving.
There are several strategies for targeting local search, including:
- Listing your business in the relevant industry and geographical directories/listings
- Creating keywords that combine your company with your physical location (e.g. “plumbers” and “Bexleyheath”)
- Optimising your company’s website for mobile
Local markets are often crucial to many small businesses and should, therefore, be a high priority when it comes to the marketing of your services and products. Not only does proximity offer the ability to enhance sales, but it can also play a pivotal role in creating a level of familiarity, both of which can prove to be hugely beneficial for any business.
Studies indicate that natural listings and Google Maps represent in excess of 80% of the clicks made by web users when they are looking for a local product or service. At Footprint Web Design our services are tailored to get you to the top of these whilst continuing to maximise the traffic streams to your website.

Never Overlook Social Media
A lack of time and resource is often the things that small businesses suffer from the most. Because of this, managing Social Media accounts is sometimes considered a bit of a waste of time. Even worse, small companies will set up their accounts, then ignore them, leaving a trail of empty, outdated profiles.
In fact, posting on a variety of social media accounts will afford your business a wealth of opportunity for ranking. Not only are social media channels great opportunities for businesses to put out quality content, but links from social media channels are growing increasingly more important to search engine websites.
Unsure which social media channel is right for you? See where your competitors are online, and more importantly, where your customers are. Start with just one profile on the channel that is most applicable to your company, such as LinkedIn or Facebook. Refresh the content often, build quality links, and as you get more comfortable, add on channels as needed.
Posting New Content
It can be difficult for small businesses to find the time to update the content on their website. However, consistent, fresh content positively increases organic search rankings as well as user experience, which is increasingly important to search engines’ ranking factors. Two of the easiest ways you can consistently publish new, quality content are:
- Create a blog for your business Many companies will start one, but as deadlines and other work crops up, the posting and maintenance will fizzle out. Commit to posting content relevant to your industry or company twice a week. Involve co-workers, interns, and if the budget allows for it, freelance writers to help.
- Create a news feed on your company website, and update it frequently with events or news, anything that is relevant to your business and industry, and that organically uses your keywords to help boost search rankings.
SEO – An Ongoing Commitment
A successful SEO Bexleyheath strategy is a commitment – your work is not finished just because you’ve researched keywords and optimised your website. Those tactics are the best first step to launch a small business’s SEO campaign, but from there, it is a recurrent process to generate content and build links to your content and site. While it might seem daunting, keeping up with your SEO commitment means your company will have increased visibility, more website traffic – and more customers.
