Do You Do SEO?

Yes — every Wildcore site ships with solid SEO foundations. But let's break down what's included automatically, what's available on higher tiers, and what you can add on.

Baseline SEO (Included on Every Site)

No matter which build tier you choose, your site launches with:

Technical SEO

  • Meta tags — Title tags and meta descriptions on every page, optimized for click-through
  • Open Graph tags — So your site looks great when shared on Facebook, LinkedIn, and Twitter
  • Structured data (Schema.org) — Helps Google understand your business type, location, hours, and services
  • XML sitemap — Automatically generated and submitted to Google Search Console
  • Robots.txt — Properly configured to guide search engine crawlers
  • Canonical URLs — Prevents duplicate content issues
  • Clean URL structure — Human-readable, keyword-friendly page URLs

Performance SEO

  • Core Web Vitals optimized — Google's key ranking signals (LCP, FID, CLS) are all green
  • Sub-second load times — Faster than 95% of local business websites
  • Image optimization — Automatic compression, WebP format, lazy loading
  • Edge hosting — Your site is served from the nearest data center to each visitor
  • Mobile-first design — Google uses mobile-first indexing, and we design mobile-first

Content SEO

  • Heading hierarchy — Proper H1, H2, H3 structure for every page
  • Alt text on images — Descriptive text for screen readers and search engines
  • Internal linking — Smart navigation between your pages
  • Mobile responsiveness — Google rewards mobile-friendly sites with higher rankings

Google Business Profile (Growth Tier & Above)

On our Growth managed hosting tier ($39/mo) and above, we help with:

  • Google Business Profile setup or optimization — Claiming, verifying, and completing your profile
  • Category selection — Choosing the right primary and secondary categories
  • Photo optimization — Uploading high-quality images with proper descriptions
  • Review response templates — Helping you engage with customer reviews
  • NAP consistency — Making sure your Name, Address, and Phone match everywhere

Ongoing SEO (Available as Add-On)

For businesses that want to actively grow their search presence, we offer ongoing SEO services:

  • Monthly keyword tracking — Monitoring your rankings for target keywords
  • Content recommendations — Suggestions for blog posts, FAQs, and landing pages
  • Local citation building — Getting your business listed on directories like Yelp, BBB, and industry-specific sites
  • Competitor analysis — Understanding what your competitors rank for and finding gaps
  • Quarterly SEO reports — Clear, jargon-free reports on your progress

Local SEO Strategy

For local businesses, the biggest opportunity is "near me" search traffic. When someone searches "best pizza near me" or "plumber in Orlando," Google looks at:

  1. Your Google Business Profile — Is it complete and active?
  2. Your website — Does it mention your location and services clearly?
  3. Reviews — Do you have recent, positive reviews?
  4. Citations — Is your business listed consistently across the web?
  5. Content — Do you have location-specific pages or blog posts?

Wildcore sites are built to check all of these boxes. We structure your content around your location and services, use local schema markup, and make it easy for Google to connect your website to your Google Business Profile.

What We Don't Do

To be transparent:

  • We don't guarantee rankings — Anyone who does is lying
  • We don't do black-hat SEO — No keyword stuffing, link farms, or shady tactics
  • We don't run Google Ads — That's paid search, not SEO (but we can recommend partners)
  • We don't promise overnight results — SEO takes 3–6 months to show meaningful movement

The Bottom Line

Every Wildcore site is SEO-ready from day one. You'll outperform 90% of local business websites just with our baseline optimization. If you want to go further, our add-on services and higher hosting tiers give you the tools to actively compete for top rankings.
