by The Great One
14 replies
I work for a company that sells medical equipment and I am just trying to get local referrals for this. I currently rank on page 5 for relevant terms. I am just looking for local. I have contacted a couple SEO places but they seem to be to expensive.

I really need some guidance on this. Site is only 1 page created through Wix. I want to put a CPA offer on it as well and have $300 monthly budget.

Just looking for direction.

    How does all of this work? Why can't I just post and people reply trying to help. Are you people expecting me to pay just to post? Thats not going to happen.

    You have had help before here - you should know how it 'works'.


    A forum is not a help desk where you can get answers on demand. Also, this thread is quite similar to a similar thread you started in December.

    How much time have you spent reading SEO threads already on this forum - or using the search function to find specific posts about one page sites, etc.?

    What is it you want to accomplish? What do you plan to spend $300/mo on?

      I didn't even know if this was public. Usually you post and it's there. Anyway, yes it is similar.

      I would like someone to guide me through this. And yes I have done alot on my own and read stuff. Truthfully, very little applies to me as I am just looking for local leads. Not world wide stuff. Alot of things on here are world wide, not local.

      I am looking at some website development and taking site from page 5 to page 1. Also putting a CPA offer on it. I have talked with a few places and it just gets more confusing.


      And for what its worth, some people that I have talked with said that I have actually done good with what I have.

    Maybe 'some people' should answer your questions then. You are asking to place a ONE age site in a page one google ranking....and only want local business to see it.

    In your previous similar thread - you had on-point helpful answers from some marketers who earn a very good living online themselves...how many of those suggestions did you consider....or try? You did not engage in that thread or respond to the excellent posts there...you claimed they didn't understand what you were doing.

    Sometimes the answer to 'how can I make this work' is 'you can't' or 'it doesn't work that way'...and not liking the answer doesn't change the facts. On a forum if you ignore or discount previous advice, members aren't likely to offer it again.


    If you go back to that previous thread and read the posts by Savidge4 and DABK among others...you may see what I mean. The advice is there - but may not be what you expected.

      Can you link previous thread? And I hardly doubt anyone here remembers responding to that.

    First off all new threads need to be approved regardless of the poster. That was instituted a while back to prevent spammers from having live threads.

    Be careful who you hire. This beginner ran into a similar issue in this thread and now doing on his own. -https://www.warriorforum.com/beginners-area/1428892-i-think-my-hired-seo-specialist-uses-blackhat-techniques.html

    Gary Vee put out a good message yesterday about content - https://www.warriorforum.com/beginne...echniques.html That should help you with SEO please watch the entire video.



    Kay mentioned at least 2 people that are great to follow. Visit the offline section and read how some of the veterans here approach marketing. Your looking to make sales, you might be better off with their methods.

    Just FYI - if you click on your forum name you can choose 'see all posts' from the dropdown - or go into your profile clicking "User CP" above and find all your previous posts.


    Here's the one I was talking about:

    By the way, for an internet marketing forum, this is about the worst user friendly set up I have seen. Who knows where to go. And when you post something, waiting 24 hours for it to show up?

    Hopefully you still have the " I pay $10 for someone telling me how I will make 15K every month for the rest of my life" offers

    So - once again - instead of entering the discussion or acknowledging posts by members....you go straight into complaint mode.


    Most people take time to learn to navigate the forum - you are given exact steps to find your own posts...and still complain.


    I'm having a 'whatever' moment....

    Similarly, I have a local business for Glasvezelbehanger and despite all the efforts and social sharing, it is unable to perform well in google search results.
    Please give me some suggestions to improve my website ranking.
    I request you to settle my issue as soon as possible.
    Thanks!

    You need a self hosted site. Go into the top page of any term just about, and there will NOT be a WIX site there. WIX is a handycap - username.wixsite com/siteaddress will in no way compete with siteaddress com on search engines.

    Once you have that corrected, go here ( https://www.brightlocal com ) and read and read and then execute.

    As stated before, you have actually asked basically the same question. My answer previously is here: ( https://www.warriorforum.com/main-in...l#post11463490 ) and that information still holds true with the caveat of having a self hosted site.

    I totally understand being budget minded on certain things... like SEO and trying to do it for yourself... but things like hosting, just not a place to skimp on the dollars - In terms of results on Google Free vs paid hosting is literally you getting what you pay for. ( free hosing will get you no where.. paid hosting gives you a chance - and even cheap paid hosting as long as the URL is yousitename com at the end of the day )

    I am guessing you mean Google Maps search ranking. In that the top most priority should be different

    - Category: Make sure the categories are right. This makes the biggest difference.
    - Reviews: Reviews can greatly improve your ranking.
    - Business name: The keyword in the name helps. Google though require you to have the business name as the official registered name.
