Additional SEO services

Block your competitors from the front page of your Google results

You probably already know that most of the website visits come from the first 3 results on page one of Google or Bing, and anything that isn’t on the front page will get very few hits.

We offer you a chance to dominate the front page and relegate your competition to the wilderness of page 2 and beyond.

You’re off to a good start by upgrading your listing, but we can do far more for you by creating high value pages that Google will rank highly. The more of these we can get on page one the lower down your competitors will slip.

Create a YouTube video for your channel and the Easy Farm shop Channel From £79

Google ranks videos highly in the search results, They also take up more space than the text results, reducing the page one competition. We often find that videos can appear on the front page within minutes of saving them. We can create and publish engaging videos for you using your existing still images .

Compared with a traditional advertisement, a well written advertorial is far more engaging and effective.

Advertorials put a “face” on your business, humanizing it and setting it apart from your competitors. 

Another benefit is that unlike a traditional advertisement advertorials will be found by the search engines giving you a big boost to your organic search results.

Create an online shop

farm shop website and app design

Farm Shop customers expect to be able to order online, don’t disappoint them.

When we built the www.easyfarmshop.co.uk Directory we noticed that almost all the farming retail businesses that closed down over the last two years did not offer their customers an online shop.

For a low fixed price, we’ll build you an effective and highly automated online shop for you; we have a standard configuration designed specifically for Farm Shops. If you have any special requirements there are unlimited options to choose from, most of them are free.

We’re working hard to promote UK farm food to UK Consumers, if you have any ideas, would like some help, or would like us to publish a guest post please email me at david@easyfarmshop.co.uk
