Why Movers Need a Website

Why Every Moving Company Needs a Website

If you’re a mover, you need a website There is a simple truth when it comes to the moving industry: every moving company needs to have a website. In this day and age, there’s no business in the world that wouldn’t benefit from being on the internet. But companies in the moving services industry, an industry where 47.8% of companies employ fewer than five people, have perhaps the most to gain.

Understanding Search Intent and the Long Tail

Old School SEO is Dead “SEO is dead” is one of the most common things you’ll hear from marketing bloggers trying to get a few extra page views by courting controversy.
