One of the reasons StudioHawk is so popular is because its founder, Harry, wanted to do SEO differently to what he had seen in the market place.

With StudioHawk US, we offer no lock-in contracts, and are consistently transparent with our communication and reporting.

Every successful SEO campaign should focus on the following fundamentals: 1. Keyword research, to uncover customer needs, content ideas and to identify relevant Atlanta-based and non-geographically based search terms to target via SEO On Page SEO, to optimize your website, content and other technical aspects to make it easy for search engines to understand what your website is about. 2. Technical SEO, to ensure your website is mobile friendly, fully functioning, fast loading, secure and easily crawlable by search engines. 3. Backlink building, to develop links from other authoritative websites to send “trust signals” to search engines about your website. 4. Local SEO, to optimize your Google My Business listing, gather reviews and create location-specific content geared towards Atlanta and surrounding areas.

The time it takes to see results can vary depending on your industry, level of competition and specific search terms you’re targeting (e.g. broad keywords take longer to rank for than long tail keywords.) Our masterful experts know all the right moves to make sure you see impressive ROI as quickly as possible, but keep in mind that SEO is an ongoing process and the results are cumulative over time.

This depends on your business and goals. For a small business, it may be possible to handle some basic SEO tasks yourself using free and paid tools. However, if your business is in a competitive market in Atlanta, and you’re serious about growth but don’t have the time or resources to run an SEO campaign yourself, then hiring an SEO agency is an essential business investment.

Your Atlanta SEO campaign will rely heavily on backlink building, also known as link building. Backlinks are critical for improving your website's authority, relevance, and visibility in search engine results as they’re essentially a “voting” system where each backlink is a “vote” for the quality and trustworthiness of your website. The more “votes” the more likely a search engine will rank your content higher in the search engine results.

To run a successful Atlanta SEO campaign there are several things you should avoid. Firstly, ignoring local Atlanta SEO best-practices is a big faux pas. Your campaign should target Atlanta-based keywords and have a properly optimized Google My Business profile set up (especially if you’re serving the local Atlanta market and you have a physical location in Atlanta to deliver your products or services.) The next is keyword stuffing. You should only use keywords in your content where it feels natural and warranted. Don’t be tempted to force your target keywords into every paragraph, especially where it doesn’t make grammatical sense. Not creating quality content is another common mistake. All successful SEO Atlanta campaigns are built around locally focused, in-depth content that answers your target customer’s questions relating to your product or service. Finally, being inconsistent. SEO is an ever-changing process and it’s critical to stay up to date with algorithm changes, consistently publish quality content, respond to reviews and monitor analytics to ensure your SEO is producing the best results for your business.

Paid advertising can be a great strategy for growing businesses that need fast results while their SEO builds momentum. It also allows you to quickly find out which search terms are most profitable and focus on those terms with your SEO campaign.
