Generally, it will take around 45 days for a new website to get indexed. Whereas if you want your website to rank in the first place, you will have to wait for at least a year.

Research shows that only 22% of the total websites that are on the first page of Google are less than a year old. Rest all of them are at least 2 years old or even more. So, in other words, nothing can be said, you can try your best and put all the efforts to implement all the working methods of SEO and wait for the results

Here, one thing many of the people don't take into consideration is the UI and UX. You need to provide the best user interface for your users along with the fast loading time and not to mention, the uptime of your website. 

What would be the ROI on account SEO?

If you talk about the ROI (Return of Investment), there is no specific percentage or value one can say for the return. However., you will 100% see the increase in visitors and the number of visitors converting into your customers once you implement all the account SEO services.

Moreover, there are certain things that you can do in order to improve the return on investment and get the best out of your SEO services for an accounting firm. Here are some of the things you should take into consideration

  • Strategy:

  • Content is the king:

    Content always plays a very important part of SEO. It depends on your content, how much your website will perform. if you are having a blog and posting 1k words articles, you will have a lesser chance of ranking when compared to the one who I posting 2k words. Remember, it is not only about the quantity but also about the quality.

  • Website functionality:

    Each and everything is included here such as your website's look and feel, the loading time of your website, ease of usage, and the functionality. Your website must be user-friendly and it should be easier for the visitor to navigate from one page to another without any hassle.

Going local or national?

local-or-national

The one thing that people are often confused is setting up the campaign. Whether they should go with local or national targeting. The national campaign will include all the visitors whereas the local will only include the people from a specific location whom you want to target. For account SEO, the best strategy or the campaign that you can go with is the local strategy.

You only want your customer from the specific location that you target. For instance, if you are providing your service in California, why you would target people from Australia or other countries. Therefore, you should go with the local campaign and start running it.

If you are still confused about where to start, you just need to select the people who are looking for "accounting firm" and are from any of the specific state or area. For that, you will have to include the keywords in your title of the content. You can simply add the city name in the title and URL, you will see a  huge increase in the visitors after some time. Moreover, it is easier to rank in local results or the results which are targeted to any specific city or the state.

You will find a lot less competition there and hence you can easily rank over there. Therefore, to conclude, don't get more confused between choosing the local or national campaign and go with the local. Keep in mind the location of your accounting firm and the areas you target.
