Little Known Facts about SEO
1 / Google Sandboxing
2 / Organic Search is the only way to be seen.
Look at the screenshot on the right handside. I typed in the broad term ” pizza restaurants” in Google Search Box – The SERP (search Results Page) only listed speciality directory listing or content aggregators in the organic search area. It would be impossible for a local “pizza restaurant” to compete for such a broad term. It is possible for your business to rank for “pizza restaurant” +[suburb] and we are going to show you how.
3 / SEO is NOT Really “Free”.
It is best to use other methods to generate initial traffic such as Social Media Optimization (SMO), Pay Per Click (PPC) for Instant traffic.
