SEO for Your Website
What's included in your website's initial SEO, and what isn't.
Is SEO included?
Initial SEO setup is included, and Business and Business Pro get our advanced initial SEO, AEO, and GEO setup. That covers page titles, meta descriptions, headings, structured data, sitemaps, and indexing readiness. Ongoing SEO services aren't included or promised.
Do you provide ongoing SEO every month?
No. Our plans include the initial optimization built into your website. Ongoing SEO work, like monthly content, link building, or ranking campaigns, isn't included or promised.
What does the initial SEO setup include?
Where it applies: keyword-informed page titles, meta descriptions, a clear heading structure, service descriptions, mobile-friendly design, internal links, image alt text, structured data, canonical URLs, an XML sitemap, robots directives, crawlability, local business information, and Search Console readiness.
Will my website rank #1 on Google?
No one can honestly guarantee a #1 ranking. We build your site so search engines can understand and index it, but rankings depend on competition, reviews, your Google Business Profile, and many factors outside our control.
How long until my website shows up on Google?
New sites are often indexed within days to a few weeks after launch, but timing varies and isn't guaranteed. Ranking for competitive searches usually takes much longer.
Can you guarantee traffic or leads?
No. We don't guarantee traffic volumes, lead counts, indexing, or rankings. We build a website designed to convert the visitors you get.
Does the Starter plan include SEO?
Starter includes basic on-page SEO fundamentals for a one-page site. The advanced initial SEO, AEO, and GEO setup is part of Business and Business Pro.
Do you do keyword research?
We use keyword-informed page titles and content based on your real services and service area during the initial build. Ongoing keyword campaigns aren't included.
Do you write meta titles and descriptions?
Yes. Every page gets a descriptive page title and meta description based on your actual services and location.
Do you add structured data (schema)?
Yes, where appropriate. We add structured data such as local business and service information so search engines can understand your business.
Do you create a sitemap?
Yes. Your site includes an XML sitemap and robots directives so search engines can crawl it.
Can I hire you for ongoing SEO separately?
Ongoing SEO isn't part of the subscription plans. If you're interested, tell us your goals and the owner will let you know what's available and what it would cost.
Do Google reviews help SEO?
Reviews are a significant local ranking factor and build trust with customers. Asking happy customers for honest reviews is one of the best things you can do. Never buy or incentivize reviews.
Should I do SEO or Google Ads?
SEO builds visibility over time, while ads can bring traffic right away but stop when you stop paying. Your website's initial SEO setup supports both. Advertising isn't part of the website plans.
Does website speed affect SEO?
Yes. Speed is part of the page experience signals search engines consider. We build lightweight sites and optimize images to keep them fast.
Do you use SEO tools on my site?
We use industry tools during the build to check titles, structure, and indexing readiness. Ongoing monitoring isn't included in the standard plans.
