What Is SEO and How Can it Help Your Business?
Search Engine Optimization, also known as SEO, is an essential marketing strategy for businesses of all sizes. In today’s modern age, the internet is for entertainment, but increasingly users are turning to it to find companies, verify their legitimacy, and ultimately use it as a sign of trustworthiness.
The higher your business shows up in the rankings for popular and relevant searches, the more likely users are to click on it and trust it as a reliable business.
“If you’re looking to create long-term brand awareness, expand your target audiences, and earn more revenue, then search engine optimization is crucial.”
Forbes.com
It is estimated that the first page of results for any given query receives clicks from 94% of users, with the second page and beyond sharing the remaining 6%.
This means that, unless your business is on the first page of results, you are missing out on a majority of your potential customers.
What would a 94% increase in your customer base do for your business’ success?
How Many Types of SEO Are There?
There are three main types of SEO that can help your business succeed even in difficult markets. When you work with Ileana Kane, you’ll enjoy a well-rounded, holistic SEO strategy that uses each of these three branches of thought.
There is on-page SEO, off-page SEO, and technical SEO.
On-page SEO is the optimization of your website, which encompasses everything from loading speed to how your content is laid out for the best user experience.
Off-page SEO details how other websites interact with your website, including outreach to blog owners to secure high-quality backlinks to strengthen your website’s metrics, and syndicating citations to ensure a more secure Maps listing.
Technical SEO deals with the nitty-gritty of algorithmic shifts and helps your website stay afloat even while Google changes around what they are or are not rewarding for your top queries.
By combining these three methodologies into a single comprehensive, all-inclusive online marketing campaign, your business achieves the results it needs to succeed.

Turning Traffic into Revenue
Too many SEO companies focus solely on traffic, and not enough on the revenue that traffic brings in. While increasing traffic numbers might be exciting at first, it can quickly become apparent if those numbers don’t convert.
Your potential customers need to find you for relevant search queries, in the part of your funnel that is relevant to their needs at the time.
If this user intent doesn’t match up, then that traffic might click onto your ranking page; but they are less likely to convert than someone who is looking for exactly what you have to offer, where you have to offer it.
At Ileana Kane Marketing, we help your business acquire new cold traffic, but we don’t stop there. We gain traffic for the search queries that matter, helping you achieve ranking results that turn traffic into revenue for your business.
Learn About Optimizing Your Website
Everyone has an opinion about how your website should be optimized, whether it’s your web developer or your business coach.
The problem is, Google is constantly tweaking what it favors in on-page elements, and the elements that achieve ranking can vary from topic to topic.
It’s time to leave the guesswork out. The search results already give you an answer for what elements are rewarded on the first page, so why would you leave anything up to chance?
We take a data-driven approach to on-site SEO optimization, researching the query for what users are looking for and what Google is currently rewarding in your space.
Beyond that, we’ll also help you understand some of the most common optimizations that benefit sites the most, so your team can learn why these changes are being implemented, and how it affects your ranking and site authority.

Keyword Research Analysis, and Strategy
At the foundation of any online marketing campaign are keyword analysis, and strategy. It is with this that we can identify key areas of interest for ranking opportunities and truly dive into a data-driven strategy. By analyzing your site’s current keywords, we can look at where you are in the search results currently, and what is necessary to bump you to the top of these results. With new keyword opportunities, we can discover potential avenues of growth for your website across the internet. We can also determine if your site is currently serving user intent, or if we need to shift your content strategy in any way.
Website Architecture
When it is attempting to rank your website for specific topics, Google interacts with your website in a very structured, specific way.
Every website needs to focus on a different aspect of its structure to establish authority for the area that will provide the best results.
Whether you need to establish more local relevancy to attract customers within a certain radius or re-design your navigational menu to help establish your site for a new topic, our team can help you optimize your website architecture.
We’ll help you establish a foolproof site hierarchy, complete with internal linking recommendations to ensure that crawlers see the queries your campaign is targeting for the best results.
Content Strategy and Optimization
Content is at the core of any brand strategy, and it’s important for ranking algorithms, as well. Content not only helps establish what your brand is about, but how authoritative it is in the space, and how well it matches user intent for certain queries. We’ll help you plan your business’ content strategy and optimize the content to better what the algorithm is rewarding for specific queries. With the right content strategy, your business will thrive in any space, hitting the right metrics for the algorithm and engaging users in a way that meets their needs.
Link Analysis
With professional link analysis, you can identify how your site is interacting with others across the web, as well as how internal links within your website interact with each other. Link analysis is a foundational part of any good SEO campaign and can help you establish authority across the web. This analysis also provides us with a bird’s eye view of where your on-and-off-site linking can be improved and where it excels, allowing us to build upon strong link connections and optimize others.
Monthly Reports
Monthly reporting is a great service that allows you to see exactly how your site has moved over the previous month for key performance metrics. You’ll never be in the dark about how your website is performing again. By keeping track of this data, we can see an overview of how your site is doing, and how the marketing campaign is affecting your ranking across the web. Key performance metrics that are tracked in monthly reports may include the DR – or domain rating – of your overall site, the number of first page keywords, and how many calls your Google business listing received in the previous month.
Affordable SEO Services and Plans

At Ileana Kane, we pride ourselves on providing affordable SEO services and plans to fit any marketing budget.
While larger budgets afford more resources and allow businesses to move forward at a faster and more competitive pace, it’s not necessary to see measurable benefits.
We are happy to devise the best path forward for any size budget to ensure that you get the most ROI from your marketing, allowing you to build your revenue to a point where you can afford a more aggressive or fast-paced marketing campaign.
