When you hear the term SEO—Search Engine Optimization—what does it mean for a small business? As a Center of Excellence in Digital Services, the SBDC analyzes and evaluates a business’s website through 19 tests to create an action plan to improve its rankings on leading search engines.
A team of consultants follows a stringent process that takes approximately five hours to complete. Then they have a detailed meeting with the client to discuss the findings and recommend the subsequent steps. Small business owners receive a 15- to 20-page report that highlights these areas.
Feedback during Q4 from clients included:
“Janice, this information is amazing, and I’m very grateful.”
Sanctuary Christian Counseling
“Thank you for helping me to understand the importance of a mobile-friendly website. I had no idea that my website didn’t work well on a smartphone.”
