How long does it take to get a new website onto the first page of Google?
Introduction
When a new business is launched within Bristol, this is normally followed by a brand new swanky website.
However, what some business owners do not realise when setting up a new website, is that Google is thought to use something called “Google’s Sandbox” period. This is thought to slowdown how long it takes to optimise a new website.
Also, many agencies, including Pack Digital believe it is Google’s Sandbox period that stops a website from ranking for key terms for a set period of time.
This means even if a businesses owner spent considerable sums on a optimising a new website, sometimes it will not go anywhere, in terms of ranking well, until Google has released the site from Google’s Sandbox period.
How long does the Sandbox period last?
It is widely thought that the Sandbox period lasts different lengths of time, depending on what industry the business operates within.
For example, it may take longer to optimise a website for a Bristol dentist, than it would a website for a local estate agent.
Why does it take longer to optimise a new website?
It’s not just down to Google’s Sandbox period neither, that’s because if you have a new website designed, you will have basically no seo in place to start.
Sure, there may well be basic onsite seo taken care of, but the really important stuff like backlinks and content marketing is likely to be minimal or non-existent.
This means that there will be a lot of catching up to do in order to get onto the first page of Google.
Does it cost more to optimise a new website?
Digital marketing agencies, like Pack Digital will need to spend more time optimising a new website, this normally means adding meta descriptions, alt tags, title tags, content marketing and building links.
Depending on the size of the website, will dictate how much seo actually costs. For example a Bristol business who is launching a new e-commerce website, will most likely have hundreds of pages on the website retailing goods, this means that more time will need to be taken on the onsite seo.
For a relatively basic website, the cost of setting up seo for a basic website will be much lower.
