CONTENT MARKETING FOR MSPS
An investment that will pay dividends for years
Content marketing is a powerful technique for driving organic traffic and new customers to your website. A sustained campaign that aligns with your revenue-driving products or services is a proven long-term strategy that follows best practices. The benefits of a well-planned content strategy will pay dividends for years to come and are a great investment in your business. The process begins by identifying competitive keywords with high search volume that align with your top revenue drivers, with the goal of securing a spot on the first page of search results. We then craft deep content for your website and push versions of that content out to your top end funnels, such as your blog, Twitter, Facebook, LinkedIn, etc. Off-site MSP SEO and link-building activities then support this content development effort.
LOCAL SEARCH ENGINE OPTIMIZATION
Capitalizing on local search for Lead Generation can be the key for MSP website success.
Nearly half of all Google searches consist of users seeking local information. These searches often involve individuals looking for Managed IT Services providers in their local area with the intention of engaging their services. Mobile searches for “Managed IT Services” + “near me” (such as “Managed IT support near me” and “IT consulting services near me”) have increased significantly in recent years. Searches for specific IT services (such as “cybersecurity services near me” and “cloud solutions near me”) are also on the rise. Capitalizing on local search marketing, including optimizing your Google My Business listing, will position your MSP business one step ahead of the competition. Businesses can significantly benefit from this lucrative and high-converting segment of search traffic. Local SEO can contribute to your business success and should be an integral part of your overall MSP marketing goals.

HOW LONG DOES SEO TAKE?
The maturity of the website can affect how long it takes to start seeing meaningful search engine traffic. If your site possesses a strong Domain Authority, you will see ranking improvements quicker. New content will start appearing in search results in month one but typically not in the top 10 results. Pages improve over time as backlinks are accumulated. Meaningful results can be expected at around 8–12 months. Pages continue to grow stronger until about 18 months and beyond. The true power of SEO can be seen after 2–3 years, as illustrated by the chart below.

LINK-BUILDING STRATEGY
Link building is a crucial component of SEO for managed service providers (MSPs) and is essential for achieving top search engine rankings. It’s not enough to have incoming links to your site. You need to build quality backlinks from high-authority sites. Additionally, your link-building tactics must include getting targeted links from relevant websites and articles. A typical Apex Visibility link-building strategy begins with a backlink audit and remediation, which provides for disavowing any toxic backlinks and resolving any broken links on your site. Next, we build quality backlinks to your site via content marketing, guest blogging, citation building, press releases, and directory submissions. A great place to start is with a link from your local chamber of commerce.
Internal Links
It is also essential to use the right keywords in internal backlinks embedded within the content of your MSP website. These links add power to the receiving pages and will help your site rank better in MSP SEO.
The best defense for any Google algorithm update is a portfolio full of high-quality backlinks.
