Now, let's go over what you need to generate sales now, which will make you cash so you can then take that cash and invest in SEO. It doesn't mean that you shouldn't start doing SEO right now because in the future, is one of the highest ROI marketing channels out there. But still you need to start doing stuff right now to generate those sales because you can't wait six months, or a year, or two years depending on the keywords you're going after to really get the results.
First, you need to learn how to convert visitors into buyers. If you can't convert visitors into buyers, then it doesn't matter how much traffic you get. And if you can't get your conversion rate high enough, the economics won't work out, especially with paid advertising because the costs are continually rising, especially after COVID.
You don't really need a billion dollars for engineering when you're a startup, but you do need it to scale your sales and marketing. And you need to have a conversion funnel with upsells and downsells. That's how you get the most out of your revenue. The upsells and downsells, the key with that is speed and automation. And as long as you're producing results, people gladly take you off those upsells and downsells.
Second thing that you need to know. Search engines give older websites more authority and more placement. Now there's no guarantee that if you're older website, you have more authority in your website because you could be a brand new hot website that every wants a link to it talk
