We spoke to Rachel to see how she and her team are using Hike to improve their SEO…
Why did you want to do your own SEO?
“I wanted to do my own SEO to save money. I’m on a tight budget and I can’t afford to pay someone else to do it for me.”
Did you have any SEO experience before using Hike?
“None at all which is why I like using Hike because it simplifies the processes for me and clearly lists which areas need attention.”
Would you recommend Hike to other small businesses?
“Absolutely. For any small business with limited time and budget you can still see results quickly with limited SEO knowledge. I don’t see a better way.”
How do you use Hike to manage your SEO?
“I sit down weekly to go through my SEO action list on my dashboard in order of importance. Even if I don’t have a lot of spare time I know I’m addressing the most urgent points. When I get more time, maybe once a month I do a deeper audit of my website and compare it to my competitors.”
What SEO results have you achieved?
“When I first joined Hike I was only tracking 2 keywords on page 1 of Google. I’m now tracking 19. Also when I first joined Hike there were no keywords tracking at position 1, now there are 7 keywords at position 1.”
