- Actionable insights that you can use to improve the overall performance of your website

Extra Care for Website Redesigns
Did you know that redesigning your website can have a negative impact on your search traffic if not done correctly? Additional steps are required when launching a redesigned site, including monitoring Google Webmaster Tools as Google re-indexes the new site as well as checking for any 404 errors or missing redirects.
Our search engine optimization process includes:
• Link Audit - It’s critical that we identify the links pointing to your site so that we can ensure the value of these links is retained.
• Content Audit - Determine which pages need to be retained, and understand the implications of removing redundant pages. This provides useful insights when planning the content and site structure of the redesigned site.
STEP 3: KEYWORD RESEARCH
Targeting for the right keywords and topics is key to the success of your website. By researching your market's keyword demand, you can not only learn which terms and phrases to target with SEO, but also learn more about your customers as a whole. It's not always about getting visitors to your site, but about getting the right kind of visitors. You will have a solid list of target keywords to help you build the content that your audience is looking for. It will form the basis of your content strategy including site structure, new pages, blog topics, etc.
