Grand Rapids Search Engine Optimization: Get Me to the Top of Google!

So you want to get found on Google?

Are you business owner in Grand Rapids, or the West Michigan area?  Sometimes I think West Michigan is the best kept secret in the whole US.  That’s great for having uncrowded parts and trails, but not so good if you’re trying to get the word out about your business.

In Grand Rapids, search engine optimization can quickly get you more visibility for your website. Why? The market here isn’t as competitive as it is in other cities, so you have a decent chance of making progress.

How do you rank on Google?  Are you #1?  Are you on the first page? Do you know what your customers search for in order to find you?

Success! You reached the top of Grand Rapids Search!

Try some searches in Google.  See which searches you show up for.  Don’t search for the name of your business, search for your category.   For example, if you’re a dental office, try “dentists in Grand Rapds” or “dental office in West Michigan”.

If you are on the first, page, congratulations!  You’ve done some hard work to get there, and your hard work will pay off in new clients and more revenue!
