How long does it take to create a website & optimize it?

It is difficult to determine a specific time for your website design. It is better to meet and assess your needs and can then give you an estimate of time. In general, most of our customers opt for a standard formula that includes a home page, a service or product page, an about us page and a contact page.

 

For a small site of three pages where we take care of 90% of the content, it can take one week to build a unilingual site. However, it can take two months to design a bilingual website with a lot of content customization.

For the optimization of your site web in search engines, we set ourselves a period of six months of evaluation based on keywords provided by the customer. In addition, the recognition of pages indexed by search engines can take one hour as several weeks!

Do you offer website re-build services?

Sometimes a customer is not satisfied with the performance of its current website. During a meeting, we will analyze the current performance data. You can also get a free audit online to assess the performance of your website.

Thereafter, we will communicate to the client, a list of recommendations for his website refurbish. A submission will be sent to him or her at the end of the process to go ahead with changes to their site. Once accepted, we can proceed to redesign work. You should know it is possible to do a quality work without necessarily erased work done beforehand. Adjustments can help correct the situation.

How can Al Ali Tech help better position our website on top search results of google?

As mentioned above, your website will contain pages that search engines and users believe relevant for their research. To do this, the content of existing pages should be reviewed and optimized. At the request of the client, we can also design new pages promoting new products or services.

A keyword research will guide our work towards its positioning success. Our copywriters will do everything in their power to offer original, without mistakes content. We will finish our page optimization work by creating relevant inbound and outbound links to your website content.

In what ways will the addition of quality links influence the performance of my site in google?

To make your site more credible in the eyes of Google and internet users, the strategy of inbound and outbound links influences your positioning. This optimization technique will influence not only your “on-page SEO,” but also the “off-page SEO.” There are a ton of backlinks on the web, but their influence and authority aren’t equal.

The importance of being accompanied by this process will allow you to have quality links instead of what search engines consider as” toxic “links. However, our team believes in medium- and long-term investments. The results may change from one quarter to another. This is why we meet with our clients as needed to explain the results.

What is SEO?

Short for Search Engine Optimization, SEO is the process of optimizing your website to rank higher for relevant searches on search engines. This includes search engines such as Google and Bing, which each have complex and continually-updated algorithms that decide what website appears when someone makes a search query.

Understanding and excelling at SEO takes effort, time and a holistic approach to all aspects of your website. However, the results of ranking on search engines (organically) can be an immense benefit to businesses and their revenue.

Can I do SEO on my own?

Yes, it’s possible for a business owner to try to optimize their website on their own.
