Defining your SEO goals

[rsheldon]

By setting goals and putting numbers to those goals, you'll be able to figure out whether your SEO efforts are actually paying off. Many businesses will simply say, "We want to rank #1 for this keyword," but that isn't quite enough.

Keeping this in mind, what are the goals for your website?

• Do you want to increase organic traffic?
• Do you want to increase the number of leads from your website?
• Do you want to design a mobile-friendly website?
• Or is your goal something completely different?

Share your primary SEO goal in the comments below!

Hi, I need to create more interest on the web. I need people to be able to reach my web and convert that visits in leads.

[NBonecki]

For myself, I would like to 

• Increase organic traffic?
• Increase the number of leads from your website?

I'm a newer business and haven't quite figured out or spent enough time on SEO or the direct know-how of growth.

Hi NBonecki,

Early days are perfect for experimenting! Focus on traffic if you want visibility, or landing page optimization if leads matter more.

Many start with traffic and convert later—what’s your priority right now?

I want to create a site to show off what I have learned from this course. For that I have three goals.
