Why is SEO so Important During this Coronavirus Pandemic?

SEO puts your business in front of potential customers at exactly the right moment. So getting the SEO right on your website is probably the most important thing you should be doing at the best of times, but as the Coronavirus outbreak continues to cause havoc to businesses throughout the world, this is the perfect time for getting your SEO right so when things start going back to normal, you are ahead of the pack.

So at this time SEO isn’t just beneficial for eCommerce businesses looking to continue making sales over the internet. It can also help your business to get ahead of the curve so that once the uncertainty surrounding the virus is cleared, you can be one of the first to get back to the top of the search engine listings.

Many businesses are hurting right now but once this is all over there will be many eager customers hitting Google and searching for businesses, products or services just like yours.

So what can you do right now to understand the health of your website and make sure it's ready and in top shape when the recovery hits?

SEO Site Audit Report

Keeping your website optimised for SEO is critical for the well-being of your online business but do you really know how good the SEO on your site is or isn't? So few people know how to really measure the quality of their SEO and identify any problems and prioritise them.

So the first thing we recommend to anyone with a website that's critical to their business, is to get an SEO Website Audit done at least once a year but if possible four times a year, to make sure you are on top of any problems. Done properly this will scan your website from top to bottom, inside and out! and at the end, you should get a detailed SEO Audit Report which will tell you the exact current state of the SEO on your website, and tell you exactly what needs to be fixed and the priority of any issues.

We can offer a one-off SEO Site Audit and we also offer regular SEO Website Audits as part of our Website Care Service, so we'd definitely recommend looking at those and at least getting a one-off audit done just to see what the current state of your website is.

We can do a detailed SEO Site Audit for you and the price of a one-off SEO Audit and the production of a full SEO Site Audit report is just from £100 (depending on the size of the website), which is a great price to see what the current state of your website is.

We find most people are surprised just how many SEO issues they have until a full audit is done but we can pretty much guarantee that most websites if they are not having a detailed analysis done on their SEO regularly, usually end up in bad shape, and that is going to be losing you, visitors, leads and sales. So now is the time during this pandemic to take the time to see exactly how healthy the SEO is on your website.
