Cylex 1.  How long does it take to see results from Seo Worx?

Seo Worx: Provided that an SEO agency is performing effective SEO, the time it takes to see results from an SEO campaign are not really determined by the agency performing the SEO. The truth of the matter is that SEO results are dependent on two things, monthly budget and keyword difficulty. If a business has a high monthly budget for SEO then it gives an SEO agency the leverage to create a lot of online marketing buzz about their brand which can yield quite fast results. Monthly budget ultimately equates to man hours on a job, and if the monthly budget is adequate, then an agency could afford to dedicate team members full-time to that single campaign. SEO agencies don't control the Google algorithm and no agency could technically force a site to become ranked quicker. Provided that an SEO agency is performing effective SEO, the speed of results will always be governed by the algorithm and not the agency. For lower competition keywords results generally come a little bit quicker because there aren't so many competing sites in the search results. For really difficult keywords it can take a long time to break onto the first page of the Google results. Every keyword niche on Google has a certain link velocity governor built-in to the algorithm for that particular niche. Even if an agency tries to force faster rankings by building lots of high quality links in a short period of time, this would trip the link velocity meter, and the site's rankings would suffer. When it comes to the ranking algorithm, sometimes even too much of a good thing, like great links, can get you panelised. This is because that sites link building strategies are unnatural and don't fall within the normal parameters for that keyword niche. For example a site with a page on it that was trying to rank for a keyword like 'Star Wars movie review' could feasibly have thousands of new links built to it every day and it would help that site's rankings without it having any negative effects. In contrast, if you had a plumbing website in Parramatta that was getting hundreds of new links every month, it'd be a recipe for disaster. The faster and agency attempts to rank a site, the more inherent risk that site has of being a penalised. Rankings can't be forced.

Cylex 2. What is the difference between organic vs. paid results?

Seo Worx: When it comes to organic SEO, the biggest difference between paid and organic results is consumer confidence. Organic results have always had, and still have a far superior click through rate (CTR) than paid AdWords ads. In general, organic results receive 75 to 80% of all clicks from the search results. This means that only 2/10 people actually click on the AdWords results. This ratio can vary widely though depending on the keyword being searched for. For instance, keywords like 'emergency plumber' and 'tow truck' to get most of their clicks from AdWords as person performing the search is in immediate need of a solution, so they click on the first result possible. Paid traffic still offers fantastic benefits and huge advantages for businesses. It allows businesses to virtually switch traffic on overnight. This can be great for testing keyword conversion rates and different landing pages. AdWords and paid traffic can also be very complimentary to a SEO campaign. When a business has a result in the top three AdWords places and they also have organic presence on the front page, this can do wonders for consumer confidence and betrays that business as an authority in that niche. If a business can convert paid traffic so the campaign itself is cash flow positive, then there would be no reason to ever switch that campaign off. It should be left on as a permanent stream of inbound lead generation and revenue, whilst complementing any organic SEO campaign that a business may be running.

Cylex 3. What's a good goal to set for your SEO?

Seo Worx: A yardstick that we use to measure whether an SEO client is a good fit for Seo Worx is whether or not a business can feasibly make a 5 to 10 fold positive ROI from their monthly SEO spend. This means that if a business is spending $1000 per month on SEO, it should be yielding that business anywhere between an extra $5000 to $10,000 per month in profit. Every industry is different of course, but as a bare minimum, businesses should at least be making back three times the amount their spending on SEO per month. When a business initially starts a new SEO campaign results can be notoriously slow, as the SEO campaign takes a few months to take effect. Depending on the niche, once the first 2 – 5 months has passed, and a business is starting to see dramatic improvements in rankings, then a business should at least be yielding triple the amount of the monthly SEO campaign in profit.

Cylex 4. What about SEO has it changed in the last few years?

Seo Worx: The Google ranking algorithm is actually nearly changed every single day. It's quite a rare occurrence at Google if the ranking algorithm hasn't been changed within a two-day period. Of course these changes are very minor, but every week the algorithm goes through a multitude of minor changes. The Google ranking algorithm also goes through major updates and rollouts which occur about three times a year. To say that SEO has changed in the last few years is a huge understatement. Google are becoming much more sophisticated at patching up holes in the algorithm that provided small loopholes for easy rankings. In 2016, building a real online brand is more important than ever for rankings. An SEO campaign that leans on link networks and any type of automation is eventually destined to failure. Businesses should focus on building a strong online brand presence using methodical white hat linking techniques if they expect to achieve strong lasting results.

Cylex 5. How important is website ranking?

Seo Worx: The importance of your website ranking is dependent on your marketing strategies. There are plenty of search engine marketing (SEM ) experts out there who can drive hundreds of visitors to their site every day without having any organic ranking presence. There are also AdWords experts who can get their AdWords campaigns cash flow positive in a very short period of time, and they can also drive hundreds of visitors every day without relying upon rankings. But at the end of the day some businesses need to have an organic presence as their customers always start their search for a service provider by typing a keyword into Google and clicking on an organic result. Website rankings are absolutely critical for the majority of normal bricks and mortar businesses as they must have an online presence when people are searching for the services they provide. Great rankings aren't the end of the story though, you must have a high converting website to back up those rankings otherwise those rankings won't last for very long. If your site manages to achieve top rankings but the design of your site doesn't gel with your online customers, then your bounce rate will go up, and your rankings will go down. Most of the time, the site design isn't that difficult to fix, but it can be a complete waste of time to rank in the top spots if your website isn't well designed or doesn't convert for you.

Cylex 6. What is an ideal client for you?

Seo Worx: An ideal client for Seo Worx is a business that has realistic expectations and isn't looking for a quick fix. There are no quick fixes in SEO and a lot of our clients come to us damaged from the last SEO quick fix they tried. Businesses should understand that SEO takes time and effort to achieve results. Our ideal clients tend to be renovation based businesses because they only need one extra job per month for their SEO campaign to be very profitable.
