Top Ranked SEO
93% of online activity begins with search engines, and only 10% of eligible websites earn that traffic. With so much room for growth, will your company be next?
"The worker must work for the glory of his handiwork, not simply for pay; the thinker must think for truth, not for fame.”

There is a “debate” going on over the legitimacy of SEO, and we strongly believe that there is nothing up for question simply because of how people use the internet. Until customers stop using search engines like Google to find phone numbers, addresses, operating hours, directions, and other general business information, SEO will remain relevant. As a thought experiment, think about how often you use Google for any of the things previously mentioned. Beyond that, think about how often you scroll to the third, fourth, fifth, tenth page of Google. Not only does SEO work, companies that take advantage of the opportunity benefit from it every second of every day.
On the surface, keyword research can be quite simple. You use analytic software to find out which keywords relate to the websites in your industry and you are all done. In reality, keyword research is one of the biggest factors in determining if your SEO strategy will work, and how much it impacts your business if it does work. Over the last few years, SEO has gotten exponentially more competitive, and as a response, some digital marketing agencies are targeting low competition keywords to get faster “results”. The issue? These keywords aren’t competitive because they do not generate much traffic. After all, what is the point of being on the first page of Google if you are on a page that no one ever visits? At Commerce Puzzle, we target high traffic keywords to ensure that you get to benefit from your wins and dominate SEO in Colorado Springs.
SEO success is defined by three things; your technical ability, your industry, and your competition. The length of time that it takes for you to show up on the first page of Google, the first page of Bing, or the map pack is entirely subjective and cannot be answered by anyone, including the developers at Google and Bing. Because algorithms aren’t programmed by people, but not controlled by people, any guarantee on the length of time that it takes to rank is not something that can be taken seriously. In fact, most professional agencies consider that a giant red flag, so be wary of those who promise results in a certain time frame. In business, money talks, so you are probably still wondering how long SEO takes to become effective. We always recommend that our clients prepare for a 6-12 month journey, with the amount of work and time spent maintaining your ranking remaining dependent on your industry and competition. If you are in a very SEO heavy industry, such as law and medicine, where every company on the first few pages is working with a healthy SEO budget and producing good content, the process can take a while. If you are in an industry that doesn’t utilize SEO quite as often, your results may come faster.
