Ever seen the Guinness advert here in the U.K.? “Tick followed tock” and the finale saying how long it takes to pull the perfect pint of Guinness?
Well in my world SEO is like a pint of Guinness, in that the best results are found by people who persevere and remain dedicated to the cause.
SEO is not, and should never be sold or perceived as a quick fix. It is a science, one that is to be studied (if not totally understood) with great detail. Changes to results in SEO can take months, and the best way to measure the performance of these changes is to limit them to one at a time. It’s not uncommon for SEO campaigns to take 6,12 or even 24 months to yield rewarding results.
SEO comes with no performance promises – you can never guarantee a position in the rankings , so be wary of anyone who promises the earth. There is a very big chance they will not be able to deliver. Ask your SEO about their long term strategy. Talk to them about keyword analysis, periodic reviews and realistic goals.
