With so many financial services companies being either home based or small to medium sized businesses, the need for a website that is visible is imperative. Just one sale a month can make the difference between profit and loss for sole traders. Medium sized regional businesses in general invest a lot of money on websites that don’t actually get any organic traffic; all the traffic is direct from pay per click services or expensive directory listings.
Investing in Financial Services SEO makes sense on so many counts. The first is the fact that long term (9-12 months down the line) a Financial Services SEO project will make good money for the business. The break-even on the campaign costs comes shortly after. Then a small retainer keeps the positions in place and the business is above the competition and receiving constant, quality streams of traffic.
The next reason is the fact that the Financial Services industry is still growing online, and there is a generation of people who still don’t use the Internet. Its fact this generation is currently being replaced by one which has a different attitude to resourcing services of this nature. What could be great sales now from number one rankings could be simply stunning sales in 5 years time.
Another major factor driving Financial Services SEO demand is local branding and word of mouth. Whilst one company gets to the top for their chosen phrases, the next competitor is pushed further down. By taking a larger slice of the online market, the further sales are inevitable from word of mouth and increased local brand value.
