Why Search Engine Optimisation over Paid Ads?

Both Google Ads and Facebook Ads are awesome digital marketing channels. You can secure a really solid return on paid advertising in just days with the help of our paid ad specialists. Search engine optimisation and paid advertising are totally different channels. Paid ads cost more, work quickly, and aren’t a great long-term strategy when they’re just on their own.

Where paid ads serve up quick wins, search engine optimisation is the long game.

Search engine optimisation, on the other hand, is the long game. The wins take longer to achieve, it’s usually more affordable than paid advertising, and it’s where long-term profits can be made. By investing some time into it, search engine optimisation can seriously pay off. With the right agency, you can find yourself in the top results in a matter of months – but it certainly isn’t instantaneous like paid advertising.

A successful SEO campaign can generate hundreds of thousands or even millions of dollars in extra business for you. Our digital marketing services find the balance between strategies and guide you towards the best channels for your business.

The four core pillars of effective SEO

SEO can seem pretty overwhelming, but regardless of what you’ve heard, there’s no magic involved. We focus on four core pillars at Excite Media: relevancy, authority, and user experience. Our SEO process covers everything from on-page SEO optimisations to site audits and more, ensuring your website ticks all of Google’s boxes.

These pillars are the secret to getting cost-effective results from organic search, day in, day out.

Let us explain: 👇

1. Experience

People naturally trust content that comes from real-world experience. When you share insights or advice based on your own journey, readers connect with it more. Whether it’s a firsthand story or practical tips, Google values content that comes from someone who truly understands the subject.

2. Expertise

Knowing your stuff is one thing, but being able to clearly explain it is another. When your content shows off your deep knowledge and expertise, it resonates with both your audience and search results. Google loves seeing content that’s well-researched, thoughtful, and written by experts in the field.

3. Authoritativeness

This is about how others view you online. If respected websites link back to your content, it sends a message to Google that you’re a trusted source. These external mentions tell search engines you’re an authority on your topic and can really help boost your credibility and search engine rankings.

3. Trustworthiness

Above all, people want to feel safe and confident when they visit your site. This means making sure your site is secure, providing clear contact information, and being transparent about who you are. When you build trust through honest content and a user-friendly site, visitors—and Google—are more likely to return.

We deliver revenue-shifting search engine results 📈

We put you on top. Here’s how. 👆

Getting your business the results you deserve takes a lot of hard work and strategy. Don’t stress. That’s what we’re here for 😉

Discovery & SEO Audit

To secure you really good results, we first need to find out how your business operates. We need to know what the market is like and how your website stacks up against your competitors when it comes to rankings, design, and overall performance. All of our digital marketing services start with discovery.

Local Business Optimisation

For most service-based and brick-and-mortar Gold Coast businesses, it’s all about your local SEO results. And that’s great news because Google loves to focus on these local results. We’ll set you up with an optimised Google Business Profile to support your local SEO efforts and generally help you get found in search engine results pages.

 

Strategy and keyword research

This is where things start to get exciting. When you think of search engine optimisation, you usually think of keywords. Of course, we’ll do some keyword research and take a look at the keywords you’re already ranking for and the keywords you really want to rank for. Through analysis and strategy, we begin planning their inclusion on your website.

Technical SEO

Our team of SEO specialists and on-hand developers allow us to take our Gold Coast clients’ technical SEO to another level. Technical SEO ensures your website is well-built and easily crawlable by Google’s bots. From your security settings to site speed to XML and Robots.txt configurations, our SEO specialists will walk you through it all.

Content strategy and development

Content, or the words you post on your website, is one of the most important factors of SEO. Luckily, we have a team of copywriters, content creators, and Gold Coast SEO specialists to create, optimise, and maximise your content without keyword stuffing or sacrificing user readability.

Link Building & Citations

Link building and the creation of citations isn’t the most fun aspect of SEO, but it is an important one. By optimising your backlinks, getting your business’ name in the right directories, and creating consistent citations, we boost your domain rating.

Digital PR

We use Digital PR to spark attention around your brand and business. By telling your story in the right places, we attract natural, white-hat links to your site, building high-quality backlinks that strengthen your website’s authority and contribute to better search rankings over time. It’s all about boosting your online visibility in a way that’s sustainable and trusted by Google.

Page Optimisation

We optimise your existing web pages based on our keyword research. But it goes far beyond just tweaking content. We fine-tune metadata, apply schema markup, set up descriptive alt tags, and use smart internal linking — every step is designed to improve relevance, performance, and discoverability in search results.

Tracking & Reporting

At the centre of any good SEO campaign is transparent tracking and reporting. Our Gold Coast SEO services see us track and monitor the progress of your campaign, and your account manager will take you through the results each month.

Sprinkle some content magic for better results in the search engines

Informative content is an essential part of your SEO strategy. Search engines use content to determine whether you’re an authority in your industry or not. So, writing high-quality content in blog posts, articles, and guides is really important. We know this can be tricky, though. It takes a long time to write a quality piece of content. When you team up with our local SEO team, we’ll dive into your target market, uncover the questions they have, and develop a content plan that both you and your ideal customer will benefit from. Don’t worry, we’ll write it for you too.

Your questions answered

We don’t do blanket packages for our SEO services. The cost will come down to all the different factors combined that are totally unique to you and your business.

We need to know where you’re at with your digital marketing and SEO campaign – if you have one. We need to know what your business goals are. And we need to know what your expectations are – do you need a quick win, or are you willing to scale your campaign with time?

You should be hesitant of SEO companies that do offer you pricing before they’ve learned about your business, website, industry, or competition first. A personalised SEO approach is key to success. There are a few things that factor into the cost of SEO.

Are a lot of your competitors competing for the same keywords as you? How far ahead of you are they? The more competitive keywords your industry is ranking for, the more work is required.

Have you achieved some good results with SEO already and want to maximise those results? Or is your website brand new, meaning we’re starting from scratch? Are you seeing relevant traffic, or just more impressions?

Is it just your local area you want to target, or are you attempting to take on nationwide or even international competitors?

The quality of your current website will impact your SEO a lot. Are you regularly posting high-quality content? Has your website been optimised to meet Google’s standards for user experience, speed, and technical factors? What’s your backlink profile like? How does it compare to other websites?

This service is all about the long game, but there is the option to take an aggressive approach to speed the process up. Are you happy to take it slow and steady and improve your website over time? Or are you wanting to accelerate your SEO results?
We wouldn’t be a very good search engine optimisation company if we gave our clients a price for SEO without finding out about your business, industry, and competition first. So, we’ll always speak with you so we can create an accurate quote.
Any research we need to do during our quoting process is on us – there’s no cost to you.

Imagine your website is a physical shop front in your local area.

There’s the busy part of the area. The part where the rent is higher because of all the opportunities you have from passers-by. The shops in this part of the area and the ones ranking on the first page.

Those shops get the most foot traffic and, therefore, the most customers because they’re in a prime position right where all the potential customers are walking by.

If you’re not on the first page of Google, your shop might as well be in that industrial area 10 minutes out of town. It’s harder for customers to find you.

Investing in Gold Coast SEO services is like relocating your shop front to that busy area. You’re paying a little bit more, but the additional business is absolutely worth it.

Put simply, yes. We need to know what your target audience is searching for, and we need to know how they’re searching. Keyword research tells us whether people are searching for ‘SEO Gold Coast’ or ‘Gold Coast SEO agency’. We can find exactly what people are typing into that Google search bar to get you better results.

Your SEO campaign is a month-to-month strategy that logically plans out each search engine optimisation technique we plan to use to help your website rank. From research, backlink optimisation, and local SEO optimisations, to on-page optimisations and technical SEO tweaks. It’s a comprehensive SEO strategy planned in a way that suits your business’s budget while being competitive.

Our Gold Coast SEO consultants will develop a custom campaign to help your business make it to the top of the search engines.

SEO success is about tracking the right metrics to ensure you’re moving in the right direction. We focus on a few key indicators:

Organic Traffic

We use SEO tools like Google Analytics to monitor how many visitors are coming to your site from search engines. An increase in website visitors is a strong sign that your strategy is working.

Keyword Rankings

By tracking your relevant keyword rankings, we can see where your website stands in organic search results. As your rankings improve, it shows that your SEO efforts are taking effect.

Conversions

Ultimately, SEO should drive business results. Whether it’s through form submissions, calls, or purchases, we measure how well your site converts visitors into customers.

Backlink Profile

A healthy backlink profile from trusted sources is crucial for boosting your authority. We track how your backlinks improve your site’s credibility and organic rankings.

User Engagement

Metrics like bounce rate and how long users stay on your site provide insight into user engagement. If people are spending more time on your site and interacting with your content, your SEO is likely hitting the mark.

Using a combination of local search results and insights from SEO experts, we continuously adjust the strategy to ensure sustained growth and the best return on your investment.
