Why SEO Matters
It’s increasingly clear that quality of content, quantity of content, and distribution of content is the name of the SEO strategy game.
Whether you’re a local business or a national brand, strategic SEO helps you attract more of the right visitors, build trust, and turn searchers into customers.
If you’re tired of being buried on page two (or worse), we can help.
But what is SEO anyway?
SEO stands for Search Engine Optimization, and at its core, it’s all about helping people find your website when they search for something related to your business on Google (or any other search engine).
Think of it like this: your website is your digital storefront. SEO helps you put up the signs, light up the windows, and make sure you’re standing on the busiest street in town, instead of tucked away down a back alley.
In general, the higher you rank on the search results page, and the more frequently your site appears in the search results list, the more visitors you’ll get from the search engine’s users. We’ll then use conversion optimization and user experience techniques to turn these visitors into customers.

Some Questions You May Have
Frequently Asked Questions
Yes, your business should be investing in SEO. Search engine optimization offers a way to increase traffic without paying for each and every click. If you’re able to rank your website at the top of the search engines, you’ll benefit from a stream of traffic that won’t have click costs associated with it, and that won’t stop when ads are turned off. Rank organically, and you’ll enjoy 24/7 visibility.
SEO or Search Engine Optimization involves everything you can do in order to obtain a better position on search engines’ (like Google) results and thus get found more easily. SEO encompasses in particular (but not limited to): fixing technical issues on your website, getting backlinks to your site, creating valuable content, and more.
Local SEO refers to specific actions taken in order to appear in search results when someone is looking for a business in your area, for example “shoe repair in St. John’s.” Boosting your local SEO is a great way of attracting prospective customers from your surroundings as most of them are looking for you online. One goal would be to show up on Google Maps, so that you’ll have a better chance of showing up in the ‘Local Pack’ (the three results you see below the map on search results).
AEO stands for Answer Engine Optimization. While SEO focuses on ranking your website in traditional search results, AEO is about making your content the source that AI tools like Google’s AI Overviews, ChatGPT, and Perplexity pull from when generating answers. At Newfound, we build strategies that cover both, because the two work together.
AEO measurement is newer than traditional SEO, but we track AI citation frequency using tools like Semrush’s AI Toolkit, monitor impressions and clicks from Google Search Console, and track brand visibility across AI platforms. We include this in your monthly reporting so you can see how your presence in AI-powered search is growing.
Google’s AI Overviews appear at the very top of search results and synthesize answers from across the web. If your content is cited there, you get brand visibility even when a user doesn’t click through, and when they do click, it’s with a higher level of trust already established.
Yes and arguably more than ever. AI search tools pull from websites, so if your site isn’t credible, well-structured, and authoritative, it won’t get cited. The businesses winning in AI-powered search are the ones with strong SEO foundations. We make sure you’re building for both.
Both SEO and SEM (Search Engine Marketing) involve increasing a site’s visibility on search results. The main difference is that SEM includes paid promotion tactics and while SEO focuses on organic (unpaid) tactics to grow traffic.
The long and short of it is, it depends. A lot of factors will go into SEO timelines including how competitive your market is, how long your website has been around, and where you’re starting from in terms of current rankings. In general, SEO is a long game, and Google is in no rush to determine your authority so it’s not uncommon for it to take a few months to see real gains.
