You might be wondering...
01. How long does it take to see SEO results?
SEO is a long-term strategy, and results depend on various factors, including industry competition and website performance. Most businesses see improvements within three to six months, with continued growth over time.
02. Why is local SEO important for Bendigo businesses?
Local SEO helps businesses connect with customers in their area. By optimising your Google Business Profile, refining location-based content, and strengthening local citations, we help you increase visibility for Bendigo-specific searches.
03. How does user experience affect SEO?
Search engines prioritise websites that load quickly, are mobile-friendly, and provide a seamless browsing experience. Poor site structure and slow load times can impact rankings and drive potential customers away.
04. Is SEO or PPC better for growing my business?
SEO provides sustainable long-term growth, while PPC offers immediate visibility. The best strategy often combines both—organic SEO for ongoing results and targeted paid ads for instant reach.
05. Where is SIXGUN based?
SIXGUN operates from Richmond, Melbourne, but we work with businesses across Australia, including Bendigo. Distance is no barrier to exceptional SEO results—we partner with local businesses to create winning digital strategies.
