There is a wide universal requirement for search engine optimisation for website promotion. Whether your selling products on a global scale or targeting local companies, should a company located in Wales use either a global company or one that is local to them? In other words would there be an advantage to using a company that provides search engine optimisation Wales based for a Welsh based company?
A company providing contract project managers based in Wales and serving Welsh companies wanted to expand to provide services all over the UK. They believed that they could reach a larger customer base via the power of their web site. Some research revealed that the services of an SEO company would help them. Basically it could help them market their internet site with improved search engines rankings which would drive more qualified internet traffic to their web site from all over the UK. So how should they select an SEO company?
They researched several SEO companies and finally decided to utilise a local company known as Rain Dance Software Services. Mick Buchanan explains “As they were local, it was easy for them to come and see us and have a face to face meeting. Immediately this was helpful as they could explain directly all the pitfalls as well as the advantages of SEO services. As they we could see them in the flesh we knew they could be made immediately accountable and that reassured us that they were not making any promises that they could not deliver on. They were genuine. Our contract project managers need to be in full time employment, they explained that SEO was only a step to getting more traffic to the website. Our website still had to convert visitors to customers”.
Buchanan further explained, “ In addition to the assurance of seeing them face-to-face, we compared them to the rest of the market and their whole offering in its entirety was very compelling. Their monthly fees were very competitive, they had no set-up costs and they provided a guarantee which other SEO companies seemed to shy away from. As they were local, we knew they wouldn’t run away from their commitment and would have to deliver on their promises.”
There are hundreds of UK SEO companies, so is it advantageous to contract with one local to you? Well that depends. Rain Dance tend to target companies based in Wales as they like the personal approach of working directly with their customers . By targeting local companies they can keep their costs down and customers have the reassurance they are local, making the SEO provider more accountable.
Buchanan’s Contract Project Manager company has seen a 10 fold increase in internet traffic after just 4 months by utilising Rain Dance which is a search engine optimisation Wales based company.
There are SEO companies based all over the world that could be less expensive. However as with any industry that provides a universally required solution, there are many good and bad companies. But suppose you contract with a company a 1000 miles away and they do not deliver on their promises? Are you going to get on a jet plane to an unfamiliar foreign country to confront them about how they spent your hard earned cash and achieved very little? Buyer beware, its not always about cost. At least locally your SEO company can not escape.
