SEO for financial advisors

If you have an objective to grow your finance business, then you simply can’t afford to ignore SEO. You can invest in the fanciest site that your marketing budget will allow, but it is worthless if your potential clients can’t find it.

Search engine optimisation is the key to online visibility for finance websites in today’s crowded market. It can help to distinguish you from the competition, rank higher in website searches, drive website traffic, and generate enquiries. And the beauty of SEO for finance professionals is that it’s a numbers game. Your success can be easily measured using smart, live analytic tools.

The advantage of choosing Targeted SEO’s web design service is, of course, that we will build your website to prioritise SEO performance. Here is a brief summary of how it works:

Search Optimised Content

If you wish to position your company as an authoritative industry voice and increase your website’s visibility to search engines, then it must be chock full of valuable information that extends beyond a list of your services.

Backlinks

Trust is fundamental in attracting new clients, and Google agrees. Inbound links are crucial to your website’s ability to rank. The more links you have pointing to yours from trustworthy websites, the better your ranking will be.

Google My Business

Most finance professionals recognise the value of a good GMB listing, but we can help to harness the benefits further, to help get you into the sought after local ‘Google 3-Pack’ – the golden ticket to lead generation.

Keywords and Search Analysis

To improve the visibility of your website to search engines, we weave keywords expertly throughout its pages. We use advanced SEO software and conduct detailed analysis to find the most profitable keywords for you.

Website Optimisation

In order to meet Google’s high standards, and that of your clients’, your website must be fast, responsive, easy to navigate and optimised for mobile. See more on this below.

Optimised website design for financial advisors

It’s not hard to list what a client is looking for in a financial advisor: professional, trustworthy, knowledgeable, articulate, organised, approachable, easy to work with. If your financial website doesn’t convey those qualities, then it’s unlikely to convince anyone to pursue their enquiry.

In these days of social distancing, your website fulfils the role of your front office more than ever. When a potential client lands on any page of your website (not just the homepage), they are relying on its quality to tell them what they need to know about your company. If they can’t find what they are looking for with ease, then there are thousands of alternatives just a click away.

In order to match the ever-increasing expectations of web users and to improve your online visibility, we employ the following strategies in our website designs.

Brand building

In a competitive market such as finance, it can be challenging for small businesses to differentiate their offering and services. It is essential therefore to convey a strong, consistent brand to help your company to stand out.

We have a deep understanding of what makes brands engaging and will craft a distinctive online presence for your financial advisor company. We design bespoke WordPress websites that reflect the unique qualities of your business and inspire trust and engagement in the user.

Fast and responsive

As online consumers, we all understand the joy of a fast and responsive browsing experience. Our online selves have little patience when it comes to finding the information we need and we naturally favour fast loading websites. And Google facilitates this perfectly by including load speed in its rankings.

In order to fulfil this need for speed, we deliver agile websites with fast load times regardless of which platform they are being viewed on. This gives you the best chance of engaging a website visitor and converting them into a valuable lead.

Easy to use for your potential customers

When searching for financial advice online, web users seek the reassurance of quick and easy access to information. If your financial website is sprawling and difficult to navigate, it will not inspire confidence in the user. By allowing us to build your website from the bottom up, we will ensure that it is structured logically, with a clean navigation bar, a coherent flow of information, and intuitive links. A satisfied visitor is far more likely to dwell on the page and return to your website in the future if they find what they are looking for, giving you the best chance of a converting them into a prospect.

Powerful Content Management System

When judging the relevance and value of a website, Google looks to see how well maintained it is and how often new content is added. So it’s essential that your new website is easy to manage. The WordPress Content Management System (CMS) makes light work of editing your website, without the need to take a crash course in coding. You may choose to leave the maintenance side to us, but the ability to make quick changes and respond to current events, eg. changes in finance legislation, can be very valuable in terms of time and cost-saving.

SOCIAL MEDIA INTEGRATION

We recommend social media as a valuable platform for financial advisors to engage directly with new prospects, to talk about their services and to raise brand awareness – all encouraging valuable click-throughs to their website. SMEs spend a lot of time on social media promoting their own companies, so it is an ideal way to attract new business. It is also a great way to advertise your new website content. For these reasons, we provide social media integration as standard in all of our website design packages. This could be in the form of a Facebook or Instagram feed which highlights new blog articles, along with an invitation to ‘follow us’.

Rich Content

Rich website content is an essential element for SEO success. Google bots are very discerning and ‘crawl’ pages for valuable and relevant content to include in their rankings. A great way to build a website full of content is to include a blog or news section. Regular, well-written articles provide quality assurance to Google and give you the best chance of ranking when web users ask a specific question, eg. ” should I invest my pension in property?”. While an archive full of valuable and relevant content will certainly increase your website’s ranking, it is not the sole benefit. In a specialised area such as finance, reputation is everything and a regular blog is a great way to promote your credentials establish your firm as a trusted industry voice.

Lead Generation for financial advisors

Your fully-optimised and beautiful new site will absolutely generate new enquiries. It’s important, therefore, to make sure that new prospects can contact you with ease. To convert visits into enquiries, we strategically place calls to action (CTAs) throughout your website to encourage visitors to email or pick up the phone. The use of ‘contact us’ icons throughout your site, linking to a classic enquiry form, makes it simple and enticing for visitors to get in touch. We can also facilitate live chat for instant engagement with visitors to your site.

Local SEO for financial advisors

Web users often include ‘geo qualifiers’ in their search enquiry, eg. “financial advisors in Chichester”. If you are a small or medium-sized firm operating in a particular town or city, it’s essential that you appear in your local searches for financial services, or you risk losing valuable business. There is a specific type of markup code that can be added to websites to make it easier for Google to identify the services you offer. Along with other smart tools and plugins, we include this markup code in all of our website designs, to ensure that your business features highly in local searches.
