Nearly 95% of people won\u2019t scroll past the First Page of Google SERP<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>According to the statistics by <a href=\"https:\/\/backlinko.com\/google-ctr-stats\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">backlinko<\/a>, the first result on Google\u2019s SERPs is 10 times more likely to get clicked by a user as compared to the 10 \u2018th\u2019 result.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Whenever we search for something, we naturally click on the first top results and ignore the other results. If this happens, you won\u2019t get traffic to your website and this will affect your business. In order to bring organic traffic to your website, you must take assistance from SEO.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">2. Organic Search is better than Paid Search Ads when it comes to conversions<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>As discussed above, it is important that whenever a user searches for a relevant term, your website should come in the top results on the search page. Paid advertisements can help you with this.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Paid search advertisements have their own benefits and can assist you in generating traffic. But people trust organic search more than the PPC ads. According to <a href=\"https:\/\/blog.hubspot.com\/marketing\/tabid\/6307\/bid\/1514\/paid-search-vs-organic-search.aspx\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Hubspot<\/a>, Organic traffic is 5.66 times more&nbsp; likely to bring conversions than the paid advertisements.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>SEO helps in bringing relevant traffic to your website. This establishes credibility, trust and loyal relationships with your customers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">3. SEO is free<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>With the help of tools like Google Analytics and Google Search Console, SEO is free of cost.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Google Analytics can help you determine as to what your customers are doing once they visit your website. Google Search Console determines what the user searched for and how he landed on your website. This information is important in determining the performance of your campaigns and making relevant changes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">4. SEO can help your organization in making well informed business decisions<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>With the information collected from Google Analytics and Google Search Console, you can shape your business decisions. Once you figure out the behaviour of your customer, you can decide how to convert them.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For instance, if your user is a 55 year-old male who lives in a certain part of the country. You can generate content which is specifically customized towards that user. SEO can help you in making informed business decisions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">5. Search Traffic contributes to 50%-70% of your total revenue<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>According to a research by BrightEdge Technologies, out of all the traffic coming to your website from paid search only 15% of it generates revenue. Whereas, from the organic search 53% generates revenue.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You can get organic search by better optimizing your SEO.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">6. SEO helps in strengthening customer\u2019s relationship and trust.<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>With just minimal efforts, SEO can help businesses develop fruitful relationships with their customers.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When your business shows up in the top results of Google&#8217;s SERPs, it is due to relevance and quality content. This helps in building the customer\u2019s trust. Once you have the customer\u2019s trust, you can work on building the trust and credibility of the customer. This can turn your website visitors into potential customers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">7. Search Engine Optimization builds a long term audience.<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Search isn\u2019t a one-time solution rather a continuous process of building the audience\u2019s trust and credibility.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Google constantly keeps on updating it\u2019s algorithms. The more relevant or popular your content is, the stronger your SEO will become with time. SEO helps the businesses in providing relevant content to their visitors which builds an audience over time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Paid advertisements deliver short term results for a high price. But, for long term trust and credibility of your customers, you will need SEO.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Thus, for startups and established companies that don\u2019t want to invest in large scale advertising, SEO is the best way to build a brand.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>According to a analytics report published by Hoku Marketing,&nbsp; Nearly 80% or more customers research online before buying a product.
