Drive Leads to Your Website: Selecting SEO Keywords
Brainstorming is the beginning
The first critical step to ensure your website performs as a lead generator is to select your SEO (Search Engine Optimization) Keywords, then incorporate them into the content of your website and code them on the back end. Using a Google Keyword Planner, we work will work with you to identify the best SEO Keywords or Phrases. Often times the best SEO Keywords are not the most popular ones. For example, “thermostat repair” proved to be a better lead generator for one HVAC contractor than “furnace repair.” Nearly all the service calls they responded to had nothing to do with the thermostat, but rather was a furnace malfunction. As a result, most of the time they ended up being the only one that made an estimate for the repair and got the job.
