Helping Norfolk businesses become the talk of the town without breaking the bank, our local SEO services are as affordable as they are effective.
You know you need a website for your small business. You’ve been putting it off for years because of [insert excuse here]. But now, you’re ready.
You manage to find a reliable, trustworthy web designer who builds you a beautiful new website at a reasonable price.
Your hot new website launches for the world to see, and you eagerly anticipate the flood of new customers that is sure to come!
But then…
Frustrating, isn’t it? To finally make a real investment into your online presence, only to get zero results in return?
This is the situation that all too many small businesses find themselves in every single day. Owning a beautiful website that gets no traffic and zero new customers.
And you know what? We had the same problem.
So we did something about it.
We were super pumped to be doing web design differently. To offer fast and affordable web design for small businesses everywhere. And to do all of it with a level of honesty and transparency rarely seen in the industry.
But we were starting from scratch. And, like literally every other business in the world, wanted to get on the first page of Google ASAP.
The difference is, while others wanted to, we actually did.
And now we’re ready to help you do the same.
Listen, search engine optimization is hard. The days of keyword-stuffing and link directories are long gone, friends.
For the past 10-15 years, if you wanted to have a shot at getting on the first page of Google, you needed to be producing regular, stellar-quality content on your website.
Writing fantastic blog posts that prioritize the user experience is exactly how we got RapidWebLaunch to rank #1 in Google for some very competitive keywords.
Put simply, we grew our entire SEO agency through nothing but organic traffic. (and some good ol’ fashioned word-of-mouth)
Is it still possible to replicate this success?
Simply put, AI (artificial intelligence) is changing everything. And fast.
The barrier to entry for creating high quality blog posts has been dramatically lowered. Anyone with a phone can write about anything with the help of AI.
This means that the internet is going to be inundated with content. Your business would need to invest thousands of dollars per month if you want to have a chance at ranking near the top.
Which is why a strategy adjustment is needed.
Here is how we can rank your local business where it really matters. In your community.
RapidWebLaunch has provided exceptionally effective Search Engine Optimization for us on an ongoing basis.
[We] have moved to, or very near, the top of page one of Google without having to separately purchase keywords for several of our most desired terms including PTSD, EMDR, anxiety, etc.
Our business has grown very significantly over time primarily due to RapidWebLaunch’s search engine optimization (SEO).
A Houston, TX pool cleaning company goes from 0 to $100,000's in annual revenue in just a couple of years.
A Bismarck, ND psychotherapist starts a new practice and begins to build a steady client base after just a few months. And still growing today.
An established Toronto, ON cleaning company grows even further and continues to dominate the cleaning industry in the 6ix.
Before you dive headfirst into the vast ocean of SEO, let’s perform a meticulous SEO audit to ensure your snorkel’s not blocked. We’ll scrutinize your keyword strategy, spruce up your on-page optimization, and revamp that all-important technical SEO. Expect us to deep-dive into your backlink profile, spy on the competition with a competitive analysis, streamline your site architecture, and make sense of the cryptic runes known as analytics. It’s like a treasure map for online success, minus the pirates.
We’ll turbocharge your website’s visibility like a gust of coastal wind through Norfolk’s streets. Our on-page SEO toolkit—title tags, meta descriptions, and head-turning headings—works overtime so your business stands out. Let’s not forget the secret sauce: internal linking and optimized images that make Google fall head over heels. Get ready for web traffic that just doesn’t quit.
Keyword research isn’t just peering into a crystal ball; it’s the backbone of your Norfolk SEO strategy. By identifying your target audience and digging up those juicy, high-traffic yet low-competition keywords, you’re essentially laying down a welcome mat for your potential customers. Plus, by understanding search intent, you’re not just attracting clicks—you’re inviting engaged visitors. And let’s not forget, monitoring keyword performance keeps you in the know, because flying blind is never good for business.
Ok, let’s get down to brass tacks. Technical SEO is your website’s knight in shining armor, defending against the dragons of slow loading times and the witches of poor site structure. It ensures your site is as welcoming to search engines as Norfolk is to tourists. By optimizing mobile usability, tightening website security, and keeping tabs on indexing, your business stands a cut above the rest, all while monitoring ensures everything is shipshape.
Local SEO isn’t just about being seen; it’s about being seen by the right eyes in Norfolk. Picture your business popping up when locals are hunting for what you offer. We ensure your Google My Business profile is as polished as the Spirit of Norfolk Cruise ship. We dig into local-specific keywords like a crab at a beach feast, get your name etched into the who’s-who of local directories, and charm those reviews out of clients faster than a Norfolk sunset charms photographers.
When it comes to Norfolk SEO, think of Google My Business as your visual handshake with locals. Optimizing this profile is a no-brainer—it’s like dressing up your online presence in its Sunday best. Picture high-quality photos that scream “We’re the real deal,” precise business info for the detail-oriented, and regular posts to keep the conversation going. Keep your digital curb appeal top-notch, because let’s face it, nobody wants to walk into the online equivalent of a dusty, cobwebbed storefront.
Every local business in Norfolk thrives on customer chatter, and what better way to amplify that buzz than through glowing reviews? Our Local SEO strategy turns your customer’s kind words into your competitive advantage by boosting your review numbers, encouraging a timely response cadence, and handling those pesky negative reviews with the tact of a diplomat. Witness your online reputation bloom like the Norfolk Botanical Garden in spring.
Consistent NAP management and a sprinkle of quality citations are the bread and butter of local SEO—like having your business’s name engraved on every digital park bench in Norfolk. It’s about making sure your business details are as uniform as a row of Navy sailors, ensuring that your local customers can find you faster than you can say “Norfolk Naval Station,” while also giving search engines the thumbs-up to trust and rank your business higher.
How delightful to watch your business climb the ranks like a squirrel on a mission—rank tracking is your window to peer into the SEO landscape of Norfolk. It’s not just about knowing your position; it’s a strategic play that informs content creation, keyword optimization, and competitor analysis, ensuring your brand stands out like a lighthouse on the Virginia coast.
We plan, create, optimize, strategize, research, post, share, monitor, and rank everything.
You don’t have to do anything.
Unless, of course, you want to. We always have room for custom community-oriented content that you’d like to share. (such as community events, sponsorships, charity donations, etc)
We do search engine optimization. And we do it really well.
Have a conversation with the SEO expert. (Like, talking. No email or text.) You'll quickly get a feel of what kind of person they are.
Unless they're new (at which point you can likely get them at a discount), they should have case studies to prove their expertise.
Are they making grandiose claims and guarantees? Sounds lovely. But it's likely not true. No SEO expert can guarantee anything.
Affordable SEO is relative. But, generally speaking, good SEO doesn't need to cost a fortune. Your ROI should be clear.
Would you hire a mechanic that drives a piece of junk? A cleaner with a dirty home? So why hire an SEO expert that doesn't rank?
Can you see yourself grabbing a beer with this SEO expert? Ok maybe this one isn't super important but it would be cool!
Let’s get that hot website of yours the attention it deserves.
