Drive organic traffic to your small business or startup using search engine optimisation

What is SEO?

Search Engine Optimisation (SEO) is the process of optimising your website from a structural, content, technical, and digital PR perspective so that your site appears higher in search engine results pages (SERPs) when people search for products or services.

SEO takes into account:

– Your website’s content
– The quality of other websites linking to you
– Your site’s technical setup (speed, mobile-friendliness, etc.)

A well-optimised website brings in more visitors, more leads, and more customers – without needing to constantly spend on ads.

Why it matters in 2025

Google is launching its new AI-powered search engine: Search Generative Experience (SGE). This means:
Search results will become more conversational and personalised
Brands will need to create content that answers real questions and provides genuine value
Traditional “keyword stuffing” won’t work anymore
To stay visible, small businesses will need SEO strategies that focus on intent, relevance, and trust.
Key benefits of SEO for small businesses:
Attracts high-quality, relevant traffic
Builds trust and credibility
Helps you stand out against bigger competitors
Provides long-term results
Cost-effective compared to paid ads
