Using SEO for your cleaning business

thanks for the kind words for our carpet cleaning business.

I am definitely new to the seo world. I know if you type in carpet cleaning in the area I live my site comes up via the free directories. Been tweaking my site for different keywords and proper placement etc. I serve so many area's in my state and its hard when I create new pages for my service area's to list those services for that area and come up with new content. I made my website about a year ago I just needed something up to show what I offer and at the time I really didn't grasp the seo concept but man is it hard lol. Still learning and tweaking

Hi
SEO marketing is Great if you know how to do it as is all other marketing techniques including autoresponders, email, leaflet drops, magazine articles, PPC, blogs, forums, social media, etc. With regards SEO there are loads of aspects to this including loads of research.
Good Luck

got any tips on what online marketing you do QPCS? i've run dry lately can't think of much else to do.

Optimizing your site can take a lot of time and effort. Plus you need to be patient to see the results.

I agree with you Greencleen, but we shouldnt really shout it as local competitors  are going to be harder to beat.
I am ranked for some sites number 1 in organic and google local. Local google is going to be the big thing soon, as there are sometimes only 1 or 2 spots above the google local so if you are in 3rd position infact you are almost at the bottom of some pages.

forums are a great way to share experience and information. just remember to regularly post back if you can to help others out so that the boards continue to live and help others.
