SEO and that’s it? I’m ready to make millions? or What else do I have to do besides SEO?

seo-and-that-is-itFrom time to time I see a tweet saying how bad the SEO service from a certain company is. In some occasions I talked to that person and it turns out that he/she didn’t knew what they signed. They didn’t knew what kind of services they paid for. But in all the cases they expected that after they paid for SEO, their website will be number one on Google and they will make big money. Something like “… and they lived happily ever after…”. It’s illogical to think like this for a single reason: if this would be true then all the websites should be number one.

If you’ll look at number one websites for competitive keywords you’ll first notice the quality and quantity of content. And there is a lot of content. You can’t expect to have 50 or 80 or 100 articles and to equally compete with a website that has 1k or even more articles on the topic.

SEO is just the starting point of your journey. It helps you place your business on the right track. But it’s not the magic thing. You are and what you are going to do after the initial SEO. You have to understand that SEO is a constant activity. That is why you should learn to do it yourself; otherwise you’ll be paying a lot of money. Even if the first time you’ll pay for an analysis make sure you understand what is saying.

This subject could be further more developed but to keep the message simple and clear I’ll stop here and leave you to express your opinion on this.
