The Google Algorithm is updated daily. But ultimately Google is looking for three types of search queries:  

1. Business Type/Navigational Query: Is the user looking for a business type, service, or products that Google understands and associates with a business type? 
2. Informational Query: Is the user looking for a topic or trying to answer a question? If so, the algorithm will prioritize long-form subpages and blog articles with established links. 
3. Transactional Query: Is the user looking to buy something? While Imageworks does not cover transactional SEO, we can still consult with you to orient you toward a proper solution.

According to backlinko.com, in 2023, the average Google first page result contains 1,447 words - meaning long-form content is still critical to success in the search game.

Meanwhile, Siege Media - one of the most renowned content marketing agencies around - estimates that a reasonable long-term price per link is around $500.

Search Engine Optimization (SEO Explained)

“SEO stands for “search engine optimization.” It’s defined as: “a set of processes aimed at improving your website’s visibility in search engines (such as Google), all with the goal of getting more organic traffic.”

Essentially, SEO is about fulfilling users’ search needs by creating relevant,

high-quality content and providing the best possible user experience.”

Your website is crawled and analyzed by Google bots continually. Google changes its algorithm three to five times a day now, and of course, the secret to the algorithm is well guarded.… But we have enough data points (after doing this for 25 years!) to know how to optimize your site properly to grow organic traffic.

Your site should have a theme that captures the essence of the services you provide. Think of your homepage as the Table of Contents of a book and the subpages as chapters, filled with informative details about each service and / or product, thus showing Google that you are relevant.

Let's take a look! To provide the most useful information, search algorithms look at many factors and signals, including the wording of your query, the relevance and usability of the pages, the expertise of the sources, and your location and settings. The weight applied to each factor varies depending on the nature of your query.

Keyword difficulty, or KWD, is a measure of how challenging it will be to rank for a specific search term or query in Google’s organic search results. SEO services typically evaluate keyword difficulty with specialized tools like Semrush, looking at factors like the domain authority, the page authority, and content quality.
