So, your safety and supply company doesn\u2019t show up on Google. You\u2019re a little peeved, right? You\u2019ve built a website. Your word-of-mouth traffic is phenomenal. But, potential customers are having a hard time finding your company on Google. Frustrating, no?<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

In order to attract the right traffic (and Google\u2019s attention!) you need to optimize your site and its web pages in a specific way. If you\u2019re not exactly sure what search engine optimization (SEO) means or how to optimize your website to rank on the first page of Google, follow along. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

3 Reasons Why Your Safety and Supply Business isn\u2019t Ranking on Google<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Google can be picky, but thankfully there are ways to alert Google of your online presence. Here are a few reasons your safety and supply company might not rank on page one (and how to fix it!). <\/p>\n\n\n\n

1. You haven\u2019t claimed your Google My Business listing<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Is your safety and supply business not showing up when searched for by name in Northern Colorado? This could mean you haven\u2019t claimed your Google My Business or Google Maps listing. Alerting Google of your existence as a business is the first step in showing up on the right-hand side of a search query (you know that little tab on the side that shows all of your business information like location, reviews, hours of operation, and contact information!).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It\u2019s free to set up and easy to manage. Just claim your listing on Google My Business<\/a>, enter your business information, and submit it for Google\u2019s review. They\u2019ll alert you once your listing is up and running in search results. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

2. Your site isn\u2019t SEO optimized<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Search engine optimization is a little more tricky than just claiming a profile\u2014yet, it\u2019s so important in ranking for specific, local keywords. If you don\u2019t know what SEO optimization is or you\u2019ve never thought about how to organize your site to a search engine, it likely is not properly configured.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

To begin working on SEO optimization, you need to make sure that you are creating content that is relevant to both searchers and search engines (and that you\u2019re targeting the right keywords for your area!). In order to optimize your safety and supply the company\u2019s website for search engines, it\u2019s best to bring in the big wigs (aka SEO specialists!) to analyze and create a plan of action. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

3. Your online reviews are bad (or they don\u2019t exist)<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Another major reason your site isn\u2019t showing up on Google? Your company\u2019s online reviews are really bad (or they just don\u2019t exist). Google takes reviews pretty seriously and bad online reviews can hurt your ranking score. Nonexistent reviews can also ping to Google that you\u2019re just not relevant.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

To remedy the bad or nonexistent reviews, encourage all customers to leave a Google review after service. Reminding them in person, on the phone, or through a quick listserv email (if you have a company newsletter!) can be a quick way to win quality reviews. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
