The other day as I was browsing the internet, I came across some very interesting statistics about the effectiveness of SEO campaigns. According to various articles that I had read online, approximately 60% of search engine users click on a link that is on the first page. Meaning, unless your site is listed on that front page, your chances of generating traffic and business are significantly less than your competitors.
Along with this, statistics showed that people placed their reliance on choosing a site based upon whether or not it was listed as a paid advertisement. 77% chose organic site listings over the paid listing. This again further validates the importance of having your site naturally show up on the front page of search engines as opposed to simply paying for it.
What this means to you. In order to get an edge on your competition, you may want to strongly consider starting an SEO campaign. Here at WEBii, we are proud to offer our services. Using tools such as Social Media, Blogs, Tags, and Links, we will help make your site more visible and as a result, generate more business.
