First steps

The investment in SEO should be gradual because the strategy is constantly evolving. Entrepreneurs must be aware of changes in search engines and evaluate quarterly or semi-annual objectives to see results. A brand will not appear in the first search results in the immediate term. Depending on the niche, it can take between three months or six months on average. In competitive markets such as retail or tourism, the strategy can show results at twelve months. "Google must process, understand the code and the structure of the website, and there are changes every month," said a specialist.

It is necessary to use terms linked to the brand on external platforms such as YouTube, Facebook and others. For example, uploading a photo with a personalized name will help to relate the content of the image to the search made by a potential client.

Another good practice is to answer user queries quickly. To this we can add frequent searches about the digital business on the internet to monitor what the Internet users of the brand say.
