FAQ's About Digital Marketing for Plumbers
-
What is SEO?
Most basically, it's the optimization tasks that go into getting you to rank well in search engines like Google. And there's a big difference between "optimization" and "optimized". SEO is like working out. Not all workout programs are right for everyone and largely depend on your fitness goals. If you service customers locally, HLM will approach optimizing you with local listings much differently than if you're a roofing marketing company with nationwide services. And like working out, it's not something you do once or only for a few weeks, it's something you stick with to get the best results and for the long term health of your company.
-
Why do we need search engine optimization for digital marketing?
Search engines like Google and Bing know that customers will only use their search engines if they get quality results. Google's job is then to find the companies it feels are of the most quality. A great SEO company, like HLM, is your digital spokesperson using various tactics to communicate with search engines like Google all the things that make you a great company to recommend to customers.
-
Which is better SEO or PPC?
Both. Wait, what? Both. SEO is great for the long term health of your heating and cooling business to protect your online reputation and ensure your building an asset (your website) which can consistently attract customers and produce new sales opportunities. PPC is great when you need leads now. If you're in a market with well established competitors which might take several months to out rank through SEO, PPC can get you in position quickly to get more sales opportunities as fast as possible. PPC does cost more than SEO due to the competitive bidding of advertisers, which is why most companies choose to have both strategies in motion at the same time to get leads now while growing their company for the future.
