We have extensive experience working with businesses in Canberra, AU. With our thorough SEO testing, we have a deep understanding of what strategies are effective and what strategies are not. We can apply our years of expertise and experience to your upcoming local SEO campaign.

So, how do we do it?

01

Local Keyword Research

When you engage our local SEO services, we will complete a comprehensive keyword planner. This is established by our team conducting thorough keyword analysis, assessing your key competitors, and looking for areas of opportunity for your website.

Our goal is to identify relevant, local & high-intent keywords that will generate leads and or sales for your business.

02

Local Authority Building

Link building in 2024 is still incredibly important! This is why every local SEO campaign with Digital Nomads HQ includes a link-building strategy.

We have a dedicated team working on high-quality (niche-relevant) backlinks and citations for your business website, with the goal to your business and brand credibility in search engines.

03

Local Content Creation

We will create highly engaging and localised content for your business.

Whether that’s blogs, articles or targeted landing pages speaking to specific locations and services… this is a critical ranking part of any local SEO campaign.

Content relevancy in a recent SEMrush report displayed this as the number 1 ranking factor in 2024.

Award-Winning Canberra Local SEO Service

Local Google Business Profile and SERP optimisation is a powerful marketing strategy for Canberra businesses in 2024.

By optimising your Google My Business, you can increase your business’s online visibility, targeting local Canberra customers, along with increasing your brand’s credibility!

A local SEO campaign’s goal is to target local relevant search queries based on “location-specific” keywords… e.g. Canberra Electrician, Real Estate Agency in Canberra etc.

These are “suburb” or “region” specific search terms that geo-locate (or localise) the content… targeting the local area being focused on.

Along with our team working on local content… a well-rounded local campaign will also include the optimisation, management & content creation for your Google Business Profile.

Increases a business’s local Map Pack ranking to further boost online visibility and local traffic and increase leads.

Website SEO Audit & Scope Meeting

Every campaign begins with understanding your business, goals, and your desired results for your local SEO Campaign.

This enables us to align your local SEO strategy with your Canberra business, ensuring that each campaign we complete is uniquely tailored to your business. This approach will lead to better outcomes for your campaign.

Our SEO team will also conduct a site analysis (SEO Audit) to measure your current local keyword rankings, identify areas that may currently be working and determine any potential technical SEO concerns that need to be quickly addressed upon onboarding.

Completing this SEO audit gives our team a better understanding of your website’s campaign requirements and the initial “quick” opportunities for your business.

It also allows us to better align your campaign and the resources it will require to be successful. We consider this “creating a baseline.”

Keyword Planner & Competitor Analysis

After completing this initial audit, we will proceed to your keyword planner.

Our SEO team will work on completing an outline of local keywords that your campaign will target based on your primary services and the location you are targeting. This will allow us to identify the required local content that will need to be created for your local SEO campaign.

These keywords or search terms will then be added to our SEO reporting platform, which will give you access to live updates on each keyword and its progress.

Along with completing this keyword research, we also run a competitive analysis or keyword gap analysis on your primary competitors; we want to make sure that your business has every opportunity to grow, so doing this gives us an indication of how other businesses in your industry have done this.

SEO Campaign Implementation

This is when our team combines the research from your SEO audit, any corrective measures that need to be fixed, the primary keywords to target, and competitive opportunities.

All of this information will be compiled into a strategy document so that you will always know what is being addressed in your local SEO campaign. 

We will rectify any “critical” SEO errors first, as they are often very impactful to your rankings (which can result in some great “quick wins”).

Ongoing SEO Campaign

With any “critical” SEO tasks out of the way, your campaign transitions over to a proactive SEO strategy.

We begin working on creating ongoing local SEO content, writing “expert” level content not just to rank… but to outrank your competitors (and promote conversions). 

Creating topic pillars and cornerstone content on your website can increase your topical relevancy and authority within your industry. Obtaining citations for your Google Business Profile and building backlinks to improve your website’s authority is also crucial.

This is how your local SEO campaign becomes successful.

That’s correct — we don’t do contracts! 

Our team is committed to managing your campaign every month, not just at the beginning and end of a 12-month contract, as many other agencies do in an attempt to retain your business. 

We provide complete transparency, integrity, and the confidence that your campaign will be successful month in and month out.

As part of our agency’s commitment to complete transparency, we grant all our SEO clients access to our live SERP ranking tool.

This tool allows you to see the actual impact of your SEO campaign in real-time… no need to wait for a meeting or report.

You’ll gain valuable insights into keyword positioning, organic traffic, and more. This transparency ensures you have a clear overview of the impact of our search engine optimisation efforts.

SEO stands for Search Engine Optimisation, which is the process of optimising a website to rank higher on search engine result pages (SERPs). It involves on-page optimisation, off-page optimisation and technical optimisation work. By improving a website’s visibility in SERPs, it can help increase organic traffic from users who are searching for relevant information or products related to the website.

Looking to improve your local SEO?

Here are a few tips from our experts in-house to help you improve your local rankings;

  • Make sure your website is mobile-friendly (Google is mobile-first indexing…)
  • Optimising your content to relate to local key terms and phrases… use Google autocomplete to get some ideas to what people might be searching.
  • If you haven’t already… Create a Google My Business (GMB) profile! Here’s a guide on how to do this. Create a Google My Business Profile.
  • Start building your reviews… ask previous customers and put a process in place to automatically ask recent customers.

Search engines use various factors to determine website rankings, including content quality, inbound links, user engagement metrics (such as time on page and bounce rate), mobile-friendliness, and load time. 

Recently a report from SEMrush showed that the top 3 ranking factors in 2024 are;

Content Relevancy, Domain Organic Traffic & URL Organic Traffic.

They also use algorithms to analyse websites and assess their relevance to specific keywords. The more relevant a website is to a keyword or query, the higher it will rank on search engine results pages (SERPs). It’s important for website owners to regularly audit their website’s SEO health and ensure it’s optimised for search engine algorithms.

Unlike Google Ads, Facebook Ads and web development, SEO is an ongoing process of optimisation and tweaks, due to the ever-changing ranking metrics and factors that search engines out an emphasis on.

There are many ways to measure the success of your SEO campaign – if you are just commencing in SEO the first factor you will be focusing on is keyword rankings. Once you obtain a first page position, the next measure of success is organic traffic. Once your website has hit first position for your primary keyword, this is where CRO comes in – where we monitor conversion rates and how we can best set your website up for maximum conversions.

“Organic search results appear naturally due to relevance, while paid results are ads at the top and bottom of the SERPs, labeled as ‘sponsored’.”

For more information on Organic vs Paid … Check out our SEO vs SEM article (here) or see our YouTube video below;

Backlinks are incoming links from one website to another and are an important factor in determining a website’s ranking in search engine results. 

Having backlinks from high-quality websites can help boost your website’s ranking as it shows other websites find the content valuable enough to link to it. It is important to have quality backlinks from reputable websites for them to be effective in boosting your SEO rankings.

Why Do I Need SEO?

SEO delivers lasting results for Sydney businesses. Unlike paid ads that vanish when the budget runs out, SEO builds compounding success over time.

Our team specialises in creating comprehensive strategies that boost your ranking for the keywords that matter most to your business.
