What Is Search Engine Optimisation?
Search Engine Optimisation, often abbreviated as SEO, enhances the quality and content of and related to a website. This process aims to increase the traffic a website receives and the number of enquiries, sales, signups and other goals/conversions the website owner aims for. SEO helps increase traffic from organic search results and improves a website to provide a better experience for users and lead them towards your goals. SEO focuses on unpaid search results instead of paid search results/ads like Google Ads or Microsoft Ads.
Since 1998, AcctWeb has provided high-quality SEO and marketing services for numerous accountants, tax agents, and auditors throughout Australia. We know what works and, importantly, what doesn’t work. We endeavour to provide the best for our clients, improving their websites and online presence and thus effectively achieving their goals.
Quality White Hat SEO
AcctWeb provides our clients with white hat SEO, an industry term referring to SEO practices that adhere to search engine guidelines, create relevant content, provide a user-friendly experience, and ultimately help users get what they’re after.
The opposite of white hat SEO is black hat SEO. Black hat SEO is a very risky process that involves methods that do not adhere to search engine guidelines. Instead, they aim for very quick gains while potentially compromising on quality. Examples of black hat SEO include spamming and bulk-buying links. Black hat SEO can get your website penalised by search engines like Google. Penalties could include having your website lowered in search results or completely removed from search results. While black hat SEO could get website results very quickly, these sites generally get penalised over time and penalised quite intensely. Resorting to black hat SEO techniques like spam and misleading your users is not worth it over time. Google is increasingly coming down on malicious, spammy, and misleading websites.
Focusing on white hat SEO gives our clients and their users a great experience and high-quality content that can last for years.
Good SEO Takes Time
SEO takes time to do well. Skilled labour, planning, testing, gathering data, and a thorough analysis of stats are required over time to conduct a successful campaign. Frequent evaluations are a part of a good SEO campaign as it works towards its goals.
Some additions take time to benefit you in search results. At the same time, SEO is the gift that keeps on giving. A good investment can reward you in the short, mid, and long term.
How Long Does SEO Take to Get Results?
How long does SEO take to get results is somewhat of a how-long-is-a-piece-of-string question. There are a lot of variables to this, and each project is different. The SEO requirements of a local tax agent in a small town and rural area would be different from those of a large tax company with a national presence.
The amount of competition, the area you’re targeting, how established your business is, any previous work done, and your SEO budget are all factors that influence how much effort will be required to reach your goals. SEO performed well is a labour-intensive process.
Local Small Business
For a local small business looking to get its name out there and gradually obtain more traffic/clients, you could be looking at 3-6 months or even up to 12 months before you see significant results. Before these 3, 6, or 12-month milestones, you can already see some results and improvements, including conversions (enquiries, signups, bookings, etc.).
National Business
For a national business, the effort required may increase significantly. It could be 6 to 12 months before you see significant results. An Australian company with a national target market can see results and conversions before these 6 and 12-month milestones.
International Business / Target Market
For an international business and worldwide target market, the effort required can increase even further. Some global companies may invest in SEO for 6 to 12 months and even more to obtain significant results. Like local and national Australian businesses, they may see results and conversions before these milestones.
Not Every Project Is the Same
However, these timelines aren’t definite for all projects. Some businesses can leap up search results quickly if there is minimal competition in their area. Depending on their regular SEO budget, the greater the investment, the quicker they can get results.
Some optimisations can have rapid benefits. For example, performance/speed optimisations for a website can start benefiting your users as soon as they’re implemented. A fast website provides a more satisfying experience for your users, increasing the likelihood of them remaining on your website and converting (enquiring, purchasing, or signing up). Not only can performance/speed optimisations help your users once they’re implemented, but they can also help you appear better in search results over time. Google and other search engines appreciate websites that provide an accessible, relevant and high-quality experience for their users.
Many Australian Businesses Choose to Keep Their SEO Ongoing as It Can Generate a Good Return
SEO is not a strategy you can implement once and be done with; it requires ongoing efforts within your digital marketing plan. Search engines change their algorithms constantly. Web technologies also change constantly, as does consumer technology. The guidelines for a quality website and user experience change yearly, requiring upkeep and skilled expertise to meet these new guidelines. By improving your website regularly, you can experience an increase in users and conversions. Most likely, many of your competitors will be doing it, too. Thus, a regular SEO campaign can help you keep up with competitors.
Many Australian businesses continue to incorporate SEO into their marketing strategies. Once established, SEO can generate a good return on investment (ROI), covering its costs and generating more leads. We’ve worked with clients on their SEO marketing projects for multiple years, which continue to this day and generate a good number of regular quality leads for them.
Why Choose SEO Instead of Paid Advertising?
SEO focuses on unpaid, organic search results, like those that naturally appear in Google or Bing. Paid advertising options like Google Ads or Microsoft Ads also exist and can appear in Google and Bing search results. Each has its pros and cons.
Paid advertising, like Google Ads, can be excellent for generating leads in a shorter term. You’re targeting users that are searching for what you’re offering. Google Ads has a regular cost per click; thus, you’ll need a regular budget to spend on the clicks. A Google Ads campaign also requires skilled management. Paid advertising campaigns can take time to mature and develop regular enquiries. Some projects see good benefits in the first few months. A Google Ads campaign can be paused if needed, such as if you’ve reached an enquiry quota or are waiting for the next appropriate budget.
SEO has short-term, mid-term, and long-term benefits. It can take more time than Google Ads to generate leads, though SEO is often referred to as the gift that keeps on giving. Your budget goes towards skilled labour and various efforts that grow your website and help your users, leading them towards your goals.
A large user base on the web uses ad blockers, which potentially prevent them from seeing paid ads. Ad blockers do not block organic search results by default.
SEO Can Benefit Digital Paid Advertising
SEO can benefit paid advertising. For example, by optimising your website, where you also lead ad campaigns, you can provide a better user experience. A user experience that is more satisfying, relevant, and quick can keep a user on your website for longer, increasing the likelihood of them enquiring, purchasing, or signing up.
Some businesses choose to engage in both SEO and a form of paid digital advertising, like Google Ads. This dual strategy can be very effective over time, generating a regular rate of enquiries or whatever the goals of a business or project may be.
While you may want to choose one or the other, don’t be afraid to try both SEO and paid advertising at the same time. Many businesses do this as part of their ongoing marketing strategy, even adding social media marketing strategies with platforms like LinkedIn. You can try these marketing methods for multiple months and see what works for your business.

Depending on your competition, aims, target market and current position, we may suggest a higher budget than the SEO Lite plan to work effectively towards your goals.

Does My Website Need SEO?
Chances are your website could benefit from SEO in some way if it hasn’t had any optimisations performed.
If you want your website to be found in search results, then SEO will help. Having a website alone doesn’t do everything needed to rank well and get more users. SEO strategies of building your online presence, creating great content and an accessible user experience complement your website well and help grow its prominence. The more you stand out in search results, the more potential traffic and conversions (sales/enquiries/signups) you could receive.
Even if more traffic isn’t appealing to you, the user experience could be improved. If you care about your users, optimising the site can help them utilise it in a faster, more accessible and user-friendly way. This onsite SEO can also help lead users towards your goals.
What Type of Businesses and Projects Benefit from SEO?
Any business, advisor, consultant, tax agent, auditor or accountant can potentially benefit from SEO. If you want to generate more views, enquiries, bookings, sales and signups, then SEO could help with this.
We’ve provided our SEO services to help accountants, tax agents, auditors, business consultants, business advisors, management consultants, management advisors and clients of our clients. We’ve even helped businesses and individuals external of the accounting industry, such as pet product suppliers, agricultural consultants and artists.
