EP 301: The 3 Key Types of SEO Spas Need to Build with Ryan Files of High Level Marketing

Starting your spa’s SEO marketing journey can feel like an adventure with countless starting points, obstacles, and off-shoots – all of which look promising. 

 

Sure, choosing your own adventure can be fun, but oftentimes it’s overwhelming with too many options. 

 

And if you’re thinking, “what the heck is SEO?” don’t fret, my guest and I on this episode of Spa Marketing Made Easy are going to spell it all out and discuss which areas are most important for you to focus on as a spa owner. 

 

Joining me for this episode of Spa Marketing Made Easy is my guest Ryan Files, the Vice President of Sales with High Level Marketing, a full-service digital marketing company that has some really unique processes and tools particularly around SEO. 

 

With over ten years of experience and holding six separate Google certifications, including Analytics, Display Advertising, and SEO, Ryan is especially focused on the healthcare and aesthetics industries providing business development and digital marketing solutions for his clients, which includes individual practices from spas to dermatologists and plastic surgeons, as well as aesthetic manufacturers such as Rohrer Aesthetics, BTL, The Salt Facial, and PDO Max. 

 

While SEO is like many other marketing channels in that the strategies shift along with the evolution of the internet, or in this case specifically, search engines, SEO is truly a time-tested area of marketing where many of the foundational principles have remained the same since the dawn of digital marketing. 

 

Like Ryan says in this interview, “SEO works like a snowball down a hill —it builds upon itself, the larger it gets, the faster it goes, and the more impactful the results will be.”

 

When it comes to investing your time and energy into specific marketing strategies, SEO isn’t one you want to sleep on because the sooner you get started, and the more you remain consistent, the more sustainable (and passive) your results will become. 

 

In this episode, you’ll learn:

 

  •  What SEO is and why as spa owners you should care a lot about this specific spoke of the digital marketing flywheel
  • The three key types of SEO that Ryan groups within this area of marketing into to provide focus to your efforts whether you’re just beginning your SEO journey or looking to beef it up
  • How long you can expect to see results after putting in dedicated effort to your spa’s SEO strategy 
  • How SEO works as you put in effort over time and how using paid Google ads can impact your timeline, plus Ryan’s suggestions on how to allocate your time and monetary resources to dedicate to SEO based on where you are in business 
  • How Google Maps and Reviews play into your rankings as a local brick and mortar business, and some insightful stats to help mitigate unsavory or phony reviews
