Why Invest in Columbus SEO?
Search engine optimization (SEO) is a collection of marketing techniques used to attract customers to a business through the company’s online presence.
Unlike traditional marketing methods like billboards, flyers, and TV and radio ads, our Columbus, Ohio SEO services are quantifiable and measurable. If you have the right reporting and systemization set up (which we do for your company in a campaign), you can tell exactly how many people are being drawn to your site and how many ultimately reach out and contact you for business.
Sixth City Marketing can help put your company in front of the people searching for your services, whether you’re the answer to their quest for a “Woody Hayes bobblehead” or the “closest place to find antacid medication” after Dime-a-Dog Night at Huntington Park.

Tips for Attracting New Customers Online
If you’re looking for captivating Columbus SEO services that will help your business stand out, we’ve got you covered! Improving a business’s online presence has the ability to attract new customers to your business site and generate new leads.
If you want to stand out from the rest, consider implementing the following:
- Get Reviews – Make it a priority to ask your customers, partners and brand fans to provide you with a review on Google. This can help you in both local and national SEO initiatives.
- Refine Website Content – To drive the best results for your business, refining website content might be the way to go. Making sure your website is easy to navigate through and visually appealing will help your company get noticed. It’s also beneficial to include unique content on your site that will make potential customers choose your business in Columbus over others.
- Internal linking – Review your website and look for opportunities to link to deeper pages from words on the homepage or the “about us” page (these are both solid starting points). Linking within the copy on these pages helps Google understand that these pages are more important than others on your website. It also helps guide people better through the site.
We want to help put your business in the best possible position and thinking about strategies like these listed above will help attract new customers online.
Sixth City SEO Success Stories
M/I Homes
M/I Homes, a home building company based in Columbus, Ohio operating in 16 different cities, specializes in building custom-made homes for families. After M/I Homes redesigned their website, they wanted to drive results.
Our team created a marketing campaign to increase organic traffic to their website by implementing SEO strategies. We conducted this by focusing on finding high-volume keyword search terms and writing optimized content for multiple locations.
We then focused on revitalizing their local profiles on Google. Our team began profile management and reviewed and acted on any major issues we found through Google Search Console.
Through the strategies our team implemented and comparing data from our campaign in 2018 to data in 2017, we saw a 10,000 visitor increase through organic search to their website. We also calculated an overall website traffic increase of 48%, organic website traffic increased by 12%, and new users on the M/I Homes website increased by 58%.
Valco Valley Tool & Die
Valco Valley Tool & Die, a complete metal parts manufacturer located in North Royalton, Ohio wanted to increase quality online leads on their brand-new website.
We conducted research on different Valco products and concluded that customers when searching for Valco’s products use a variety of search terms. We ultimately drove more visits to Valco’s site than ever before by finding out the best way to serve the needs of Valco’s customers and optimize accordingly.
When looking at our results compared to past years, we saw a 114% increase in visits to Valco’s site per month and a 543% increase in online inquiries per month.

You Have Questions, and We Have Answers
Learning more about search engine optimization agencies can be hard, especially if they use loads of industry jargon you are unfamiliar with or reference services you have never heard of. Hopefully, some of the following questions and answers can help:
What is link building?
Link building is a major SEO tactic that involves developing creative ways to get your website more backlinks from different sites across the web. Having more backlinks to your domain helps signal to Google and other search engines that your site is high authority for the terms you are trying to rank for, boosting your rankings.
Do I need local SEO?
If you are a business in the Columbus area that is primarily focused on gaining customers just in the region, then you are a great candidate for local SEO. Local search engine optimization involves additional unique approaches to improving your online presence in your local area to help attract valuable customers.
What if my website needs technical help?
Since we are a digital marketing agency, we are fortunate enough to have an in-house staff of developers and designers who are familiar with addressing issues with your site that are holding you back from your SEO potential.
Can I do more than just SEO?
Of course! We would love to help your business succeed through our other services, including pay-per-click management (on Google Ads or social media), web design (specifically WordPress), email marketing, social media, and more.
Will having an older site affect SEO?
Not always! We have at times run into issues with older websites that have certain limitations, but since SEO has been around since the beginning of the internet, it’s applicable to most websites. However, if we do find that your site isn’t capable of working with specific parts of our strategy, we will always honestly communicate that.
What parts of Columbus do you serve?
With a central office downtown, we are able to meet with you no matter where you are, including:
- Dublin
- Worthington
- Powell
- Gahanna
- Westerville
- New Albany
- Hilliard
- Everywhere else!
