Once upon a time, you had to be a card-carrying nerd to operate on the World Wide Web. Now, platforms like HubSpot readily bring the power of online customer management to both Internet wizards and technophobes alike. Mastering the CRM tools (customer relationship management tools) of HubSpot can help you foster better interactions with existing and potential customers. But how do those customers get to you in the first place? How do new customers find you online without already knowing who you are? Discovery begins with a search. And quality SEO, or search engine optimization, will make your business part of the results.

SEO makes it easier for search engines like Google to find and recommend your online presence at the right moment for potential customers – the moment of search. In that moment, applied SEO practices should facilitate the discovery of the CRM tools you’ve developed with HubSpot. General SEO practices and schools of thought will translate from subject to subject and medium to medium. Is your business a local dentist’s office? A regional real estate company? A national software consultant? A good sense of SEO applies across the board.
And whether agencies are creating SEO strategies for a totally new site or operating within the constraints of a specific web platform, their optimization philosophies should carry over. However, the intricacies of execution will not. Each platform is different. Squarespace, WordPress, Hubspot…each requires specific, intimate knowledge of proprietary tools. At Outpace, we train on these in-platform tools in order to go beyond generalist practices and offer SEO strategies tailored exactly to the ins and outs of HubSpot.
Is it possible? Of course! If you are technically proficient and able to invest time in the research, there are great learning tools available online. But SEO is a fast-moving landscape. Best practices are constantly changing at the intersection of user-behavior and platform updates. And in most businesses, time is money. We are experts within this industry. If you built your HubSpot presence as an expert within your industry, it may pay to keep your focus there and let us handle this stuff.
While familiarizing with and plugging in the available platform tools is valuable, we view it as the minimum. At Outpace, we take a holistic approach to SEO. We consider all aspects of your presence as integral to ranking higher in organic searches. Everything from the way you label products or services and title blogs to the way you display images and information can influence the way algorithms interpret your CRM platform. Design, content, metadata…we consider the whole.
Organic search results are the unpaid listings on SERPs (search engine results pages). As opposed to targeted, paid ads, these organic results are supplied according to people’s searches. People often begin with a broad search, like, “best service in my area,” before narrowing to highly specific searches using common industry terms. At each step in the search journey, your business has an opportunity to appear in organic results, as the answer to a query.
There is a self-satisfaction to the customer journey that comes with discovery. As opposed to paid ads, which may feel intrusive, the perfect organic search results are rewarding. They feel like the result of a good line of questioning. Of course, behind the scenes, we are working hard to present the right information at the right moment. And when it works, research has demonstrated time and again that first-page, top-of-Google results have unmatched long-term value relative to paid ads. Paid ads may offer a jump start or enhance campaigns, but organic results are a north star for potential customers.
Making decisions regarding the future direction of your business is challenging enough without all the noise. But most business owners don’t want to make decisions in a vacuum. Meaningful customer feedback is invaluable. But not all feedback is as cut and dry as a review. Analytic feedback can help you see where your customers are abandoning your website, where there are snags in your signup or checkout processes, and more. Some of these results are illuminated by the HubSpot dashboard, but without guidance these results might read like white noise. At Outpace, we go beyond identifying key metrics. We can help you interpret them, too, and offer consultation on strengths and weaknesses. The future of your business deserves it.
