SEO for Startups: How to Compete with Big Brands

As a new startup, search engine optimisation (SEO) may feel overwhelming, especially when competing with big brands that are well established with large budgets. Startup businesses need to become visible online, but at the same time are working with limited budgets, which often results in them ignoring this important digital marketing strategy all together.

Even if you have a beautiful, visually appealing, and professional website, without SEO you won't reach your target audience and drive traffic to your website.

Low Risk, High ROI

Research has shown that SEO is a low risk, high ROI marketing opportunity. When you have an effective strategy in place, you enjoy excellent long-term gains. If you are considering partnering with a SEO agency, beware of those that make promises that sound to good to be true. SEO agencies cannot guarantee you a number one ranking. At this stage you should focus on patience, understanding, and strategy.

Don't Wait

Many startups have a limited budget, and we are sure your new startup is also juggling your budget, focusing on what is important to your brand. The longer you wait to implement your SEO strategy, the further ahead your competitors will be. 

With comprehensive keyword research and analysis, you can identify the most relevant keywords you want to rank for.

Long-Term Strategy

As a startup, you probably want instant results, which is completely understandable. You want your business to start growing without delay. With a limited budget, SEO is the most affordable digital marketing strategy. Remember you cannot pay for your ranking in Google results.

Pay per click (PPC) advertising, on the other hand, can provide instant results, yet you pay for each click. While you gain instant visibility with PPC, they are expensive tools for new businesses. In addition to this, even the best PPC campaign does not guarantee conversions.

Finding the Right SEO Partner 

We understand how difficult it is to find the right SEO partner. Many agencies have bad reputations for using unethical and black hat techniques, which is a serious issue for new businesses that are trying to grow their brand, boost visibility and awareness. Consider looking for a small agency with a handful of talented professionals who are passionate in what they do. These smaller agencies are dedicated to seeing their clients succeed, paying closer attention to your business goals and helping you achieve success. Remember, only use agencies that use white hat and ethical techniques that align with SEO best practices.
