Launching a new website is always so exciting, you\u2019ve poured everything you have into it and you want it to be seen by as many people as possible. You\u2019ll likely have already set your website up with SEO good practices, such as page descriptions and image meta data. When we launch a new site we always expect a small drop off to search engine impressions for the first 2 weeks, after that it should start increasing above and beyond your previous rankings. To make sure you get the most out of your shiny new website, don\u2019t forget to do the following:<\/span><\/p>\n If you have changed URL\u2019s or added new products & services, make sure your Google My Business profile is up to date. Fill in as much information as you can, it really makes all the difference.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n When you\u2019re following your SEO closely the best tools you have are GSC and GA. Data is your friend, and even if you don\u2019t plan to increase your SEO budget right now, when you go to make that move in the future the more data you\u2019ve gathered the better. These tools are both free to use too.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n Regular content updates and blog posts will keep your website at the top of it\u2019s game. Make sure your website is a good reflection of your business and what you offer.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n If you have added extra pages or restructured your website then make sure you track your redirects and 404\u2019s. This will ensure that search engines aren\u2019t getting 404\u2019s and your customers end up on the right page.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n If you have updated any branding, logos or main website URL\u2019s then don\u2019t forget to update them on all the places you appear online.
